So Mana users get 40-50 mana in compensation from the removal of Mana Pots

So with the removal of Mana Potions, Riot has decided to give most mana users 40-50 mana in compensation from the removal.

I personally think it is a good idea to remove the mana pot, but we didn't buy it because we needed more starting mana. We bought it because our champion was really mana hungry. Yes it's a little buff, but 40-50 mana is usually around the cost of one spell. I personally think you should increase the base mana regen of mid champions as well, and not only supports, because there is nothing worse than losing lane against a Zed or Yasuo because you have mana and they don't. 40-50 mana is not going to do it...

TLDR: A little more mana sustain, not just flat mana

Expanded mind is also gone. It gave 25/50/75 mana. So the mana hungry champions end up losing 25 mana in a best case scenario. While meditation which is currently a deep utility mastery is becoming accessible, but as a burst of mana on a cooldown which unless it was changed from per 5 to per 1 is the same exact % of missing mana.

I actually forgot expanded mind!

I use it on every mana user, so yes, that is true it is going to be -25 mana

I honestly hope Riot reads this

Didn't take a genius to figure out that this would happen. Every time people believe in the infallible words of Riot, and every time this is their "solution".

Is it really so wrong to give a person a choice between lane sustain and lane presence? If I would wish to spend MONEY to forego health in place of mana on Zilean, why not?

The problem is just some champions are just plain stupid and obnoxious with mana pots being in the game

Take ect. Azir. If he has mana pots, he can poke, farm and pressure the enemy mid laner out of lane bacause of the 100-500 mana it gives back. His poke is almost infinite(at least enough to poke your average mid laner out of lane)

I completely understand Riot removing them because it was really unfair on some champions where it was unnecesarry on other champions with mana
