Another support item so that healing and shielding give you gold instead of using abilities to damage. It will make playing enchanters or back lining supports able to actually support. It will remove all of the cancerous mage supports you know and hate today. Spell thiefs is the reason bot lane is really cancer. I would argue that if Riot removed Spell thiefs for a whole year that bot lane would not be such a cluster fuck like it has been for two going on three years now. Then they could balance mages for the mid lane again like and much more out of bot lane and leave the tanks and enchanters.

Also remove ranged execute from relic and steel so mages cant abuse that either except for thresh because its a wind up and he is a support by default.

Botlane isn't cancer. Jungle is. Toplane also, because of jungle. Not botlane How can people complain that support mages are op and at the same time complain about assassins being op? Pressing a shield at ally adc every cd for gold is probably the worst idea of a support item i saw. The only actual difference between Thresh and Morgana is that Morgana has waveclear.

They aren't going to remove spell thief, and Riot labels healing/shielding as boring.

The only problematic ones i see are Zyra and Xerath, Xerath mostly, for him to be able to take 25% of my adcs hp in laning phase at low mana cost, and ontop of that now spellthiefs has mana regen and Xerath can regen mana from minions... like cmon. we could dodge a whole barrage of his Qs and if my adc gets hit by 1. i have to waste half my mana bar and my left nut to heal her the tiniest bit.

Xyra just makes it impossibnle to fight in general.
