I dont know of this idea was mentioned before but what about items that give negative stats in addition to positive stats? Like -45 mr for + 60 armor. Idea just came to my mind few mins ago thought could share.

That would be just broken in certain situations and useless in others.

Eh, while yes that sounds interesting, adc would take high AD/-AP, or itd punish bad team damage profiles even more with +95 armor and -45 mr or something like that.

Cool concept, but it’d be a nightmare and a half to balance. And if it became standard in every item, mixed stat builds would feel even more aweful, being hard to make good as is.

I think it's certainly something that could be explored, butit certainly need to be stat combos that result in a tradeoff, ideally giving even a playstyle related choice, like an item that increases your AD alot, maybe even %ad, but therefor reduces your total AS so it allows you burst harder at the cost of dps.
