Support item change/addition ideas

Having played with Relic Shield for a long time now, I think the execute on minions should be extended to ranged champs as well. Thresh is more or less the only ranged champion who builds it (though I have seen a few Bards build it as well during this feeling out period, and I can't blame them, Bard is squishy for someone who is going to use his portal to flank the enemy), and I think it is time for these champs to be given their fair chance at executing a minion.

The support item I would like to see added is an ad version of Spellthief's Edge, one that gives a small boost to ad early and procs its gold generation on enemy champ or structure hit, and eventually builds into its completed from with the addition of a Brutalizer (where the Spellthief line uses Fiendish Codex). It is my hope that this would further increase the variety of support champs as well as add depth to the existing support builds.

Relic Shield actually used to execute regardless of range. That made it attractive to ADCs, and botlanes were running dual Relic Shield starts for faster gold and easier waveclears. Riot extended the recharge time and made executions melee-only to prevent that.
