Make Guardian Angel as an active item.

No one really likes to play 50 + minute games where most people get GAs (Guardian Angel), not only that it becomes really frustrating when you have champions like assassins that get the item like Pyke, Kayn, Zed, Tryndamere, etc. My honest opinion that item doesn't make someone better it makes them worse as a player over the longevity of them playing this game. If we removed the Revive summoner spell then why are we keeping GA as an option? Zonyas/stop watch is a great item for counter play but GA is just a buffer for mistakes and dragging a game longer than it needs to be.

No one likes to play a game of monopoly that lasts days, same with League. The concept is simple faster games (in higher elo) less frustration thus less flaming. Also why have an item that is like Zillean's ult? Isn't Riot's goal to make champions unique and playable? It takes patience and skill to revive someone one, then it should at least require skill to use GA. Why isn't a GA like an active like Zonyas/hour glass?

Guardian Angel has like a 5 minute cooldown and the stats on the item are actually really shit. Most assassin ults are like less than a minute late game.

I understand it can be annoying, but don't you think squishy champions find it really frustrating when a Zed can pretty much E auto them with duskblade and kill them? The frustration is on both players.

Defeats the purpose.

I just say this goes both ways actually it reduces counterplay to the assassin or just make the assassin not want to target adc "if" its a active due that fact i zed ults adc then adc just zhonyas (watch or hourglass) him then can just activate guardian angel or not on his whim depending on his teammates range if he can be saved in time. in a way you can say in a toxic word (the assassin is the adcs bit**) in those circumstances. which can frustrate an assassin player but.... if its a passive it brings some incentive to assassinate said target to avoid teamfight complications when the enemy's corpse turns into a objective king of the hill fest to protect/rekill the target being revived.( which isnt fun or interactive on the adcs end its only luck) high risk/high reward due to temporary 4v5 maybe a 3v5 due to possible no top laner present providing cc. pros/cons everywhere
