"We set ourselves a target of getting mages into bot lane in midseason" - Riot

And you wanted to accomplish this by nerfing them in to oblivion and hoping they'd want to go into a lane where they are out damaged, out ranged and out sustained by a class thats dominated this game for 6 years?

holy shit dude...

yer they think "I no lets nurf them so they won t get pick bot as support" yet they dont understand then why would you want to play them mid when you do less damage. Were what they should be doing is making supports more viable.

When I have played a support champ I get a useless adc (so its a lose) so now I have to take Brand so that if my adc is useless we dont lose the game because of the adc

Yea, all I can say is it's fascinating to see the amount of disconnect they have with themselves sometimes.

I can't wrap my head around the logic or the reasoning behind the mana changes.

You also add to the fact that marksman and many other champions who don't have mana can essentially clear waves JUST as easily 'for free' and it becomes even more egregious. There are too many drawbacks to playing a LOT of the caster class if these changes go through.

Also, There are literally dozens of ways to address 'wave clear' problems that aren't so invasive and require the gutting of a single class. Why wouldn't you look at minion magic resist, for example?

The ironic part is that they removeditem 3303 mana regen, you know the only support item with AP.

What are mages supposed to take as a support? Do I have to go manaflow band and Ancient coin? But I have to be out of combat to even get the mana coins! That is the most backwards thing ever.
