Have an option to make starting builds automatically buy items for us?

Basically what it says, when we premake builds, have an option to have these items automatically bought for us when we enter the rift using that particular champ.

Maybe even have a special button on the shop? Of course the option to refund the build would be available if you want to go for a different set or tweak it.

(also I forget to buy trinket sometimes and feel like an idiot)

Edit: This would only be for your starting items.

You shouldn't just have a set build that you get every game. You should be building your items situationally instead of just one solid build that never changes. I mean, it can work I guess but say you have Randuin's Omen and Sunfire Cape in your build titled "Tank" but the enemy has nothing but AP Damage. then you'd have 2 wasted item slots and a lot of wasted gold.. Or say Guardian angel is in your set build but the enemy can't kill you anyway.

You should always build based on what your team needs and what will hinder your enemy the most, not just what looks good. xD

If it wasn't obvious this would be for only the first set of items that very rarely will change...

Oh, well I see.

It still seems kind of useless, since you can't even leave spawn until you have time to buy your first set of items. Lol

Well for some champions your first item depends highly on who you are against

I play AP and AD Ezreal. This system sounds like a headache for me.

"No, don't use the default build you dumb thing! I'm going AP!" One game later... "GAH! Got to recall, the game bought me a Doran's Ring when I'm going AD!"

Not to mention people would expect the same system to carry over into ARAM, Twisted Treeline, and Dominion, which have very different recommended builds and don't always suggest starting with what you want.

In general, this seems like it would cause more frustration than it would releave. If you're really feeling lazy, right click on every item to buy it...
