Riot, what's your stance on this meta?

You took such a strong stance when it came to the other metas, what's your opinion on ADC with Relic Shield TO HELP SPEED UP the gold generation of coin-using Enchanter supports in order to rush Ardent Censer?

What's your stance on this speed-beef the Hypercarry with Warlords and remove reliable clear counterplay vs. shutting them down?

What about how unhealthy Support items are right now in general?

Do you know - do you understand how boring Support is right now? Of course it'll be played by more people, it's influencing the game TOO MUCH.

They already nerfed censer. Outside that, support items aren't really in a terrible position, and without the power of censer there's not a huge reason to play relic shield on an adc outside niche circumstances.

Censer wasn't nerfed. IT was changed. From a small health-drain to more damage and giving the benefit to the support as well. Support items are in a terrible position, and are often sought out by people outside the Support role.

I agree with this. More attack speed is not a nerf. Anyone else notice that subtle shift from "Hypercarries being protected by layers and layers of defense and healing!" to "Hypercarries DESTROYING THE FABRIC OF SPACE-TIME AT 20 MINUTES" ? I mean yeah, even after the nerfs, defense is still a thing, but it's not really noticeable when one side's hypercarry hits critical mass first and the game just ends right there.

I think their stance is basically summed up by 2 ideas
