What if Boot items had their own slots?

What would a 6th slot open up? What benefits and problems?

Cassiopia will now be irrelevant and not unique. Tanks will be nerfed since resistance items reach a point where they are inefficient

No she won't, she still has the highest dps in the game

she would have less total item slots than everyone else so she would still be slightly gimped in that regard

she would need ANOTHER new passive in order to compensate for the fact that boots would have their own slot so they would have more stats than her

i made a suggestion a while ago to remove boots from game... and have champs have scaling ms per lvl like cass and or via ms on items like triforce, phage etc

Scaling for everything would extend further out its curve.

Offense would probably tend to outstrip defense due to this by a further amount.

End game would take longer to reach.

Supports would take even longer to match endgame builds with others

Supports would be closer to non-supports in build power once that end was actually achieved.

Total potential build variation would increase, due to adding another selection.

Meta build variation would possibly decrease, due to top tier options being far fewer than the total options, and another slot letting you consume part of another build or possibly spike out a focused one even further.

Components would strain inventories a little bit less, which would make some build paths more viable.

Overall I dunno if this is good or bad, but it'd definitely be different.... after a certain point.
