Seriously, it's the worst Dorans item in the entire game, being less useful as the game goes on.
I had an idea where it could be a component of Steraks gage, make Dorans shield a baby steraks gage.
Example: Dorans shield passive: If the champion who has this item takes 30% or more of their max health within 3 seconds, they gain a 10% max health shield that decays over 5 seconds.
Thoughts or would that make it broken?
Lord Dusteon3 votesThe point of Doran's items is that they are very stat efficient starter items that do not build into anything or help much past laning phase. That means they should not build into anything. If you have a problem with Doran's not being efficient enough to even be picked in laning offer buffs that help it there (maybe lower the cost so you do not miss out on 1-4 health potions by going that route).
Marshmallow Wolf4 votesi think 
x5 is wayyy better than a shield and one pot. Just a thought.

NO FANK YEW
Wolfess1 voteshow about a system that charges over time like ROA, making it more viable as time goes by, giving slightly better hp, hp regen, and damage blocked upto a certain degree, making it a much more desirable item than t1 items, but not more than t2 items in a similar way that doran's blade looks far more worth than getting just a sword because it provides only 3 less atk, but also gives 3% lifesteal and some hp as well, which is still nice to have mid-game because 3% lifesteal scales with your AD, but is probably still better off sold later for items that will scale you up much better for the late game.
I think its current stats could probably get tuned down just a bit as you buy it, but as time passes, maybe upto maybe 6 or 7 minutes and it builds its charge/stacks, it would be better than what it currently is (health, regen, dmg blocked) so it scales against their enemy laner's damage since they will be doing more damage as the game progresses due to skill rank ups, and natural damage gains from lvl gains.
Boulderox1 votesproblem is if you buff it, it will outshine support items and be a instabuy on thresh again and we all know how that worked the first time...

remember though that dorans is still pretty expensive and allows only one pot to be bought, while support items like 
can generate hp, mana, AND get you gold faster,
can generate hp for both you AND your lane partner with also gold gains. I will leave 
out of it because doesn't generate hp and also because I'm one of those people that think its utility isn't really worth... even one 
does the trick for me honestly over that item. >____>
