Can we buff Bard's W heal AP ratio?

I love playing Bard and he really doesn't need any damage buffs at all. There are a lot of games where I am one of the top damage dealers, if not the top damage dealer on the team.

However, his heal is very weak even when building AP. It would be nice to slightly buff his AP ratio on his W to make it better mid to late game without effecting his laning phase too much while also making item 3504 item 3174 item 3115 more viable on him.

Again, I don't want damage buffs. I don't want early game buffs, this is why I ask for an AP ratio buff to his w rather than base heal buffs. Would just be a nice small buff to Bard's utility.

I love playing Bard and it's not that I don't think he's viable, but he's not great either. He loses a lot of matchups bot and I consider him a mid to late game support. Just a lot of things bully him in the bot lane since he's squishy and short ranged, so would be nice if his heals scaled into the later stages of the game with him.

Or maybe connect Bard's heal amount to his chimes would be nice. Anything to make sure it doesn't effect his healing in lane to make it overbearing.

He's a low pick rate champ with no competitive play whatsoever, why would they nerf anything? lol

Getting a buff means there should be a compensation nerf

You know by buffing him he will get high pick rate His damage is already too high

i dont think hes a high pick though because of other support champs. hes not a bad champ its just his passive makes him leave lane at times and if he can leave lane to get chimes his ability to help his team is hindered. i feel as though he can be a great snow ball champ but thats about it a bard behind is hard to come back.

No, he is sleeper OP against anything that isn't named Thresh. You just auto two times and your meeps proc Electrocute. He doesn't need buffs until they address his low-input damage.

He isn't bothered with because he has no play. I rarely ever see him, and when I do it's because I play him with my team. If you let his W sit the heals are awesome, especially if you build item 3504 With as many chimes as I can get in a game, his Q and aa does incredible damage. You basically get a free item 3748 after so many chimes. After two items item 3092 item 3504 he is op as support lol. Incredible heals and intense damage. If anything, Soraka needs a healing buff. Although her heal is low cooldown late game, it takes so much health. Especially in a team fight

He doesn't see much play because getting comfortable with his ult is super difficult and creates a lot of inter team flaming, not because he's weak.
