I was thinking about teleport, actually. It got nerfed because everyone started taking it. What if there was a Doran's-like item that made TP a shorter cd if.... You were 'far' from a tower. Far enough that mid laners and tower huggers don't get much benefit from it. You were 'far' from a teammate, so bot laners get less out of it.
Maybe a 2:1 ratio on a net -240 gold item? 60 health and 10 adaptive force, 2hp/5?
What do you define as far from a tower. And how would a top laners be further from a tower than a midlaner or bot laners. Yes top lane is longer than midlane but having tp cd be based on an item and a arbitrary distance from towers just seems too conditional to be useful
"far" would have to be very specific or this item would be either broken or useless.
Far would have to be far enough that people getting bullied under tower by champions who can abuse range (Kennen, Vayne, Kayle ect) wouldnt be at a massive tp disadvantage. It also would give people like renekton and fiora who are capable 1v2 champions free reign of the lane since they can constantly push out the wave and force a freeze on the enemy side before tp ganking every 3 minutes.
It would also have to be close enough that people can play around the lane, like a GP or Poppy might without getting constantly hit by the "far from a tower".
IT would be impossible to balance and would be a must-buy in proplay. It would probably enable Tp on midlaners again and even some safe adc like ezreal or xayah who are capable of split pushing a bit.
Just make TP a 4-5 minute CD on melee's.
