Im Averaging 300+ Extra Gold By 20 Mins on Coin, With the Least Amount of Effort by Far

Let me start by saying Love you all, riot included, and this post regards the gold income on these items and has very little to do with the stats and passive/actives attached to them!

Im sure this is known, ancient coin is too strong, and i believe it has nothing to do with the numbers attached to the item.

Its the mechanic. At this point picking up 1.1k-1.2k gold @20 mins on this item is EXTREMELY easy, even when behind. Picking up the coins requires at most a sub-conscience lull around the map. Im literally not even noticing that im stacking it and stacking it heavily, especially late game when you can rotate 3 lanes, and abuse the NO COOLDOWN that coin offers.

line has extreme limitations concerning procs: First and mainly the fact that you cant proc it unless enemy champions, or turrets, are around. Something Relic and Coin dont suffer from. This leads directly into the the second problem. Which is when behind, or in a unfavorable lane, Spelltheif becomes dangerous to proc. Pushing coins only limit(positioning) even farther. Enemys dont mind so much that you pick up a coin, autoing them in the face is a different story :D

This item suffers from again, an incresead version of Coins only weakness, positioning. And another weakness neither have, team awareness. Past initial minion wave relic becomes a siege minion only tool. if your adc manages to leave them for you thats only the first step, you have to also make sure that you arent getting yourself caught out on each siege minion wave, and must actually last hit the minion. When transferring to late game again you must have an ally nearby, and they must let you kill minions. Something that is very frustrating in solo queue, especially considering you can fail at the proc anyways if not timed well.

TLDR

is bordering skill free, is BY FAR the easiest of the 3 to proc WHEN BEHIND, Offers a HUGE amount of gold even when not considering ease, and allows for the most freedom in positioning out of the three in lane.(positioning is deemed it weakness :D) Also can be proc'd while completely alone, Especially when rotating between 3 lanes late game, allowing for 200 gold in a single 20 second period.

Requires an enemy champion or tower to be used at all. Must attack a champ or tower 3 times to catch coins rate, which is extremely more skill based and dangerous.

Requires Ally champion to be used. Ally champion must realize you are proccing relic, Mistakes can be made both in positioning, and last hitting, again making this much harder to use effectively.

Increase the risk in coin, decrease the gold given, or do the opposite to the others, at this point, its coin no matter the champion at support.
