Idea to have an extra item box (it would be 7)

i would prefer it if that extra box went towards pink wards. It really sucks when you have to dedicate an item slot to pink wards instead of something that can give you combat stats.

If this box is limited to boots, I'm fine with it.

Do you want damage creep, late game scaling, and snowballing to be even worse? Because that's how it get's even worse.

An extra item slot for consumables: Pink wards, Health potions (including refill and corrupting), elixirs (so you can choose when to use them at full build instead of using on purchase).

This way there is no damage creep or tank creep that could happen. It's limited to 2 scenarios:

1. Late game where you want/need a pink but have no space
2. Throughout the game where you want to keep/buy a consumable but your incompleted items deny that (e.g. an ADC with BF Sword, Pickaxe, Cloak, Boots1, pink ward, 2 health pots, and 300g left over who wants to buy a dagger but has no space).

I don't think either would hurt balance.
