Make the items' CD scale with the champion's CS.
Example you have 0 CS -> 
's active and passive are like now
You have 50 cs -> the passive procs half as often and the active of the completed item has twice the base CD.
Fix'd?
The Last Ballad2 votesOr, better yet, have the support items reduce minion gold by half(except from 
passive). That way it doesn't screw over supports that accidentally auto a minion, nor screw them over if they need to emergency clear a wave. Jungle monster gold would be unaffected.
The cheap stats wouldn't be worth 1/2 cs gold for the rest of the game, now would it. Except, of course, for the role that doesn't get any cs...
Anastaecia1 votesNot sure why laners would buy the supp items anyway.
Coin: You don't get the new bonus unless you collect Coin "coins" (weird,,,why not call them "bits" or something?). ANYWAY, "coins" don't drop if you are last hitting. Also keep in mind, I'm guessing the "coins" will be like Thresh souls. You still have to pick them up, so in the middle of csing and dodging, etc, you also want to be trying to grab "coins" that are littered around?
Shield: Don't know how powerful the shield is yet, bit either way, this item puts you way behind if you buy it early unless you are a tank supp anyway.
Edge: Again, don't know how much of a speed burst, prob not worth it.
Obviously, the coin is the main issue, but as I already have shown, there's no worries. AND, we still don't know what the "bounty" amount is going to be. They may have it planned that you finish the quest on avg by level 7-8. That is far enough into the game that a laner taking one of these would be SO FAR behind that the small boost from completing the quest is irrelevant except for supp.
Disulfiram1 votesActually, I was referring to the issue "we can't make support items good or laners will abuse them" we had some time ago, not to the devblog post XD

When 
was released, they ended up having to nerf it hevely because the midlaners were taking it for extra gold upon completion(slightly less than a caster minion for harassing the enemy? Why not). The active went up 30 seconds at patch 6.2, all because mid laners were buying it and abusing the cheap stats.
