Removing Summoner Spells from the game...

Simply put, they arn't needed anymore. Most champions like Zed, Camille, Zoe etc, have the power to kill you without even needing to use summoner 14. Nearly every viable champ now has some inherent form of mobility that makes summoner 4 redundant so its not needed either.

Summoners Spells are a relic from an era of League that is far in the past and simply do not need to be in the game anymore. Most champions have enough damage, mobility or utility to completely make summoners useless anyway and therefore its just overloading powerful meta champions that do not really need it. The only champs that need summoner 4 are non-meta picks like Velkoz that will never see the light of competitive play again so what is the point?

The only used summoners spells are summoner 7 (Which most supports already have), summoner 4 (Which every champion with mobility doesn't need), summoner 12 (Which a lot of champions already have a long range or global teleport - Ryze, TahmKench) and summoner 14 (which no meta champ needs because of their already overloaded damage numbers and items.)

Believe me, the game would be DRASTICALLY better without these deleted relics, just like the how the Runes Reforged replaced Runes and Masteries.

Too drastic to be changed this year and I don't know if I agree. I would definitely like to try it that's for sure.

Problem with summoner spells is, like many things in league, pretend to be something you can customize and make your own, but in reality its flash and ignite or you're trolling (at least in mid lane 90% of the time)

Well no, because everyone takes summoner 14 and summoner 4 so I fail to see how it makes anything unique. Its simply not needed anymore. Made for a time when champions couldn't kill in one rotation.
