I feel sorry for mage-support mains

I just like the 150% mana regeneration it gives at such a low cost.

The active is a god send in Twisted Treeline though for vision control, I wish the Frost Queen's Claim we have now was in Twisted Treeline when I was doing ranked along with {{summoner:2}}

They never should have gotten rid of twin shadows. They should have made it worth taking. Now that they tacked on it's active to an item that was already worth a slot in some cases, you can replace "some" with "all".

I feel like this has to do with the fact that Twin Shadows had a bad public image. When you think about it, it was actually a pretty decent cheap self-peel item. It gave 80 AP, 10% CDR, and it even gave Movement speed. That's a pretty decent item by itself, but other items just felt more important to have than it, so it got side-lined.

NOW You've put an ok active on an item that is even cheaper than that, gives a big chunk of mana regen (always appreciated now that mana pots are gone) 50 AP (not good but definitely not bad) and gold generation (Every proc of the gold passive counts, and it will really add up). Not only that, but the active itself has had it's base cooldown cut in half in exchange for not having the gimmicky cooldown reduction aspect of the ghosts.

It's the second thread about that, and I've actually never seen it in-game. I'm from EUW, is this a server-specific meta? Or only at higher ELO, since I'm in Silver?

Funny thing is, I never use FQC as a mage support. I go Eye of the Watch for the wards.

And that's with me being a support mage (which is usually Karma, Syndra, Lulu, Morgana, Janna, Bard, Zilean , or Lux)

i'm fine with this

a 4 second slow that grants true sight is ridiculous

I've been building it every game now.

There's your nerf, folks.

FQC/Eye of the Watchers - Killing a minion disables the passive for 12 seconds.

I find that the nerf is reasonable.

Though I sure wish they'd fix the glitch where both ghosts instantly hit the same enemy champion, wasting half of the active.
