I've been buying nothing but a Spirit Visage for MR in most of my games

Even against magic heavy teams. There's three problems here:

  1. The only decent MR items build out of Spectre's Cowl and the others are pretty much geared towards supports and bruisers exclusively.
  2. You can completely shut down a mage's damage output with that single item. Wasn't this why you removed Force of Nature?
  3. Armor items synergize with themselves and are tuned as such to a point where you have to buy a bunch of them to get value out of them. Looking at Thornmail and Frozen Gauntlet especially.

Pretty sure force of nature was removed because it was bad.

Spirit visage is also good because of the cdr. Frankly the popularization of thunderlords has made cdr items more valuable because the mastery that allows you to exceed the cdr cap. While I don't want to dismiss your points I think it would be better to wait until after the mastery updates next patch to see where this item falls once thunderlords becomes less viable.

They should make more MR items with unique abilities and synergy, but they need to do this without nerfing mages.

I suspect that this will be included in the Mage update.

An indirect Janna nerf that would make her (along with other heal/shield supports) healthier.

Every few months Riot overbuffs an otherwise balanced champion just because nobody plays them.
