Why is this still a thing?

Didn't Riot remove the 9 Health potions meta at level 1 back in Season 3 for being cheap and ensuring level 6 despite poor positioning and lane knowledge? Why is Flask + 3 Health potions still a thing now?

flask was meant as a support item. interesting how none of them are actually buying it.

I played against a Talon once who made good use out of a flask + 3 health pots. Considering I was Viktor , he just kept blinking to me and kept wrecking my shit. Any damage I dealt to him (even my E) was ignored with all his health pots.

well Flask help Champ who need to rely on their mana to poke and stay in lane like Pantheon and Poppy and Olaf

They deal high damage early but use up lot of mana to do so

Because there are champions who have really unforgiving laning phases and need the sustain from it to farm up their items they need champs like Talon Diana Kassadin

Flask 3 pots gives about as much health as 5 health pots. It also gives some mana, but you could aswell buy 5x health 4x mana pots. Flask is just better for the rest of the early game. Armor 5 pots gives more sustain before first B.
