As a support main, I like spellthief changes

Let's face it. Supports get the short end of the stick because "We don't CS" thats a pretty bum rap for 1/5 the players in every game. I love that riot is buffing support items instead of nerfing them because supports have so much room to grow! I think it is a great move to buff tier three options for Spellthief instead of nerfing coin's gold. I do worry FQC will end up in mid lane 100% of the time again but I think that would be a problem with AP itemization rather then support itemization.

To be clear, I feel that support itemization has room to grow and the slowly building buffs to support itemization is a great way to explore that. I do think that support items will reach a cap in stat/abilities/gold value as riot needs to be careful not to make support items so powerful that people just go 2/1/2 and drop the jungle role. That cap hasn't been reached yet. Support items can become stronger and better making the support role more impactful and fun to play. I want Riot to continue to buff support items to bring them up to a level that shows the maximum potential of the support role.
