Something like "the target does 30% increased damage for X seconds" or something like that. Basically to promote non-ADC bot lanes and allow supports to amplify mage power too.
Sir Yamazuki2 votesADCs aren't taken bottom simply because of a single item. It's for objective purposes, which is why when they changed Morde to go bot he had interactions with Dragon or Ziggs got the tower execute while keeping his passive damage (both these mages can go bottom still even though they're unpopular and win more than most ADCs). Mages can also already occupy the other 4 positions.
There's also already multiple items to support the damage of mages, and the game doesn't need additional damage added too.
50000000000000001 votesRight, there are many reasons for why there's a Marksman+Support bot lane. Just to list some:
My proposal doesn't address these other points, but a lot of these reasons that used to matter no longer do (most marksmen now have mobility and/or CC). I also agree with the damage creep issue, but it's been getting addressed. Also, this would allow for supports to boost mages in the mid game, if that would benefit the team better than just sticking with the marksman.
Slythion2 votesyou'd have to tone down a lotttt of numbers in the game if you wanted to add a bunch of damage amps. Damage Amp comps would likely become mandatory tbh
egoSniper1 votesThat sounds cool and all, but mages are usually very strong against ADCs in the first place - see Annie support, Brand support, etc. General damage amp like you suggest would probably remove ADCs from bot lane entirely.
Yrzen1 votesI doubt it because of their late game potential and the general state of itemization making Mages incapable of dealing with properly equipped tanks.
However, it will probably break solo lane Lulu again.
Linna Excel1 votesSo basically you want Soraka's old Q back.
50000000000000001 votesYou mean the MR shred Starcall? I mean, resistance reduction (both flat and percentage, although percentage is more common) already exist in the game.
I'm more talking about buffing an ally than debuffing an enemy, but debuffs may be healthier to implement (since debuffs allow for more counterplay).
Ahristocats1 votesthat's a good idea, however the numbers are hig
good idea because it doesn't force supports to peel only for their adc
however, if your goal is to promot non-adc botlane then it's a bad idea
like someone else said, the reason adcs go bot isn't because their supports give attack speed
