Why is there no defensive trinity force item?

There's an item that gives a buttload of stats for offense, but there's no all inclusive health+armor+Mr+MS+extra defensive unique passive items, which is stupid >:(

I'd imagine the reason is because defensive items are supposed to be reactive and somewhat cheaper than offensive items so that offense outscales. With those two things in mind, an expensive, all-encompassing defensive item doesn't make sense - especially when the end result will probably be that nearly every champion that only builds one or two defensive items will have to build it.

Would be interesting design space though.

You're thinking something like old Aegis of the Legion and Runic Bulwark. I loved those items, which unfortunately means they had to go.

Why would a single player liking an item be the reason that the item must be removed?

I was being facetious, bit of an inside joke.

Iceborn gauntlet is the defensive version

Even still both stoneplate, and locket are pretty dam all inclusive, and show why it would be stupid unbalanced to have an actual item like what Op is suggesting.

If you see a weird Blue or Red mark on your minimap in your jungle, walk over to it!

Retcon all the champions to be gay, including Blitzcrank. Make the Baron and Dragons gay too.

For every Blue Golem that Ivern frees Daisy should get some armor, something small. +1 like.

A thought for Unsealed Spellbook. The spells that you're running should give you a small buff.
