Consumable Slots for Wards and Potions.

I am new to this discussion thing, but I want to voice my opinion about an idea that I think should be implemented into the game. I do not know if this idea has been posted before so please forgive me if this post is 'unoriginal'.

I believe that Riot should develop extra item slots (maybe around 2) that are dedicated to consumable items only (such as potions, wards and elixirs). The reason for this is that I am finding it to be very annoying to share inventory space for both items and consumables because if I am building an item with a lot of parts, my inventory ends up temporarily full without the space to have any potions or wards. If the inventory space where to have at least 2 extra inventory slots which can only store consumables, as well as retaining the original 6 slots ability to store both items and consumables, the problem of having no space for consumables will be gone because you will always have 2 slots dedicated to them.

An example of a game that does this is Smite, they have 2 slots for consumables only which means you will always be able to store consumables at all stages of the game regardless of you being full build or not, although their normal inventory does not store any consumables either which I don't like because then you only have 2 spaces for consumables only.

All in all, I really hope Riot will consider this because I believe this will help out with inventory issues which other people such as myself may view as an annoyance. Thank you.

They already gave us a free slot. Its called a Trinket.

Managing your inventory is a part of the challenge.

I don't think it is a challenge to manage inventory, it is just an annoyance when you can afford both types but cannot hold them. Why should I have to make a choice between items or consumables when I can afford both types? Also think about late game when you are full build, if you do not have a ward trinket or sightstone then you cannot ward without selling a whole item to make space, why can't I have a red or blue trinket while also being able to buy and place wards when I am full build?
