Since people including myself are looking for more high ap items and especially a lack of high ap items whithout mana attached to them thought id list my thoughts for a new item especially since ludens doesnt really fill the void from deathfire like it was meant to do.

Item: Something something ap item: Cost 3600 Builds out of item 1058 item 3113 item 3108 +600 gold Stats 120AP 10%Cdr Unique passive 5% Movement Speed Unique Active: Your next damaging spell against a enemy champion will deal bonus damage equivalent to 10+5 Per level + 25% of your ability power (Halved for AOE spells) Duration: 5 Seconds.

Thought here is to offer burst mages a item in the mid game as a 2nd or 3rd item that gives them the power needed to get a rotation off without it being cheap enough to rush early and cheese level 7 all ins with it. Adds the stats deathfire had while added movement seed since the champs building this item benefit from movement speed such as Lux Syndra Vladimir Lissandra and a more streamlined passive to champs building it without abuse cases. Item I think would do its job pretty well and add a single target option for burst as opposed to ludens which is more oriented for teamfight damage and waveclearing. But yeah thats about it hope you guys have a good day!

Isn't that just a better Ludens though?

Why not just item 3285

A point you are missing. Mages are doing just fine and need no buffs.

People like to conveniently forget that mages are currently in very good spots. They also seem to forget about the addition of keystones and utility they have now added to their items.

Reason why you have so much less AP now? Keystones and utility. Your build paths are now a lot more efficient as well. Mages are fine. Just adding AP for the sake of, "That's how it used to be," is how you ruin gameplay balance and is absolute asinine reasoning.

Cool item, would like to get some high ap diversity with how niche ROA and archangels are as well as giving more than 2 non mana 100+ ap items that we currently have.

good Idea, but I think you should either remove the CDR or nerf the passive, there should be a tradeoff in ap-itemisation between burst and spell-spamming

Seems to do its job well and cost is high enough to where it comes in the middle/end of builds to help single target burst mages out where they really have a hard time securing kills once the teamfight stages start to occur, little concerned it too mainstreamed in stats but its cost hopefully means its not something like morellos where its rushed in almost every case for a mid laner. I like it overall.
