idea for Athene's Unholy Grail
When your mana pool is practically empty, make it so you can never drop below 20 mana. Or if your mana drops below 20, get 20 mana over 5 seconds on top of the regen it offers. spells still cost full amount but will refund after using the spell. i understand it sort of does this. but not that much. the identity of athenes should be to always have mana for at least 1 spell. with brief delay until next spell.
this helps give the last 10% of your mana even greater returns.
i dont get why it scales off your mana, since the point of getting athenes is when you are not getting
you can't spam quite as much but pretty close.
i also miss the old passive:
UNIQUE PASSIVE: Increases your mana regeneration by 1% per 1% mana missing
rip ziggs mid lane. the nerf to athene's mr was sufficient the mana regen nerf destroyed ziggs.
stats and passives:
+60 Ability Power
+25 Magic Resist
+20% Cooldown Reduction
+100% Base Mana Regen
ALL THE TIME. It works well. Then again, this is just my 2700 (545) gold input. Okay bad gold joke aside. That's just my thought.
in which case its underwhelming.
is also meant for early game regen, yet thats when ou mana pool is low.
it just seems counter to the item's identity to have it scale with how much mana you have.
meanwhile got hit hard, it was better off with old passive. that's why they had to buff support mastery to account for it
