Random thoughts, while in queue lol.
Why nerf kog, when there is an item that is core to like 3 champions, only usable pretty much on the same champions, that messes up their power curve and their balance in general.That to me, idicates that guinsoos is the item that needs changes.
Why do support items continue to give gold to supports that are far ahead.I'm not anti-snowball or smth, or against supports having gold(though this is debatable), but nerfing the snowball of supports should make sense.At least the behind support wont be as behind when compared to the enemy support.( even , evening their gold out does not sound bad to me).They can both have gold( almost the same gold) and snowball their carries.
Did thornmail in its current iteration really made any sense as an anti-marksman item?Marksmen, a class that does not have to trade blows with a tank and return dmg and -regen does not hurt as much as another class.Bruisers, thornmail pretty much made bruisers want to ignore the tank and making botrk( an itemization answer to tanks) a huge NO.Because thornmail completely counters bork.Thornmail could have something that affects ranged unit specific, no?
Also i always thought that jungle was the more pve role, i dont think so anymore.Not too big of a deal, but could use improvements.
Changes to the last 2 points might also be enough to lift some of that focus on the bot lane.Tanks and stuff might even need slight buffs.
I dont know if they actually want to go the dota way tho(long term), but that needs so much more time, its alrdy been almost 3 years since a series of changes that are starting to fall on themselves...
There have been a series of fuckups, this has to be acknowledged and dealt with, with SOME way.
I would like a discussion to be honest...
