Magic Penetration items are a little bit... uh...
Lacking. They're a little bit lacking.
There are only 6 Magic Penetration items in the game right now:
One of them is only available when you have a certain champion on your team.
One of them is an item you build into another item.
One of them is for tanks (or drunk 
s and 
s).
One of them is just boots.
One of them just gives you more raw magic damage.
And one of them is an actually good item that a lot of AP people build.
(you should be able to tell which items there are)
6 AP items, and two of them are the same goddamn item!
We need more magic penetration items. I realize that this might start the League of Legends equivalent of the Red Scare again, but with mages so be it. I'm sick of this meta where if you get an Ardent Censer and have Twitch, Tristana, or any hypercarry really, you win. Look at Lethality. Nerfed into the ground, but they're still good items that a lot of off meta characters can build and have them do damage (I build full lethality Taric top one time. E auto-auto, dead). But it feels like all mages get the same core build:
, and then there's one more slot, which would probably be taken up by something like a 
, 
, or .
And then you're full build.
Where's the individuality with the builds?
Look at Kayle's core build:
and then two more items that would probably be some AP/CDR.
You wouldn't see those items on any other mage (well, maybe 
if Tilterella goes insane with another on hit build for her).
Hell, I even have a Mundo build where I build exactly this:
It's not good, and it's not viable, but it's fun as hell! Half health anybody with a cleaver because they do more than true damage!
You wouldn't see me building that Morellonomicon nonsense on Mundo.
We need to give more AP items Magic Penetration.
A few ideas I cooked up in my lab and tied together with some loose showstring:
Same movement speed and passive, except the bouncy bounce thingy scales off Magic Penetration too (but the scaling is lowered for AP and Magic Penetration)
However, the price is lowered to 2900 gold, it gives 70 AP, and gives 15 flat Magic Penetration.
Also, the build path would be 
A NEW ITEM
Build path would be 
and
It would be like Morellonomicon with some tuned numbers to the mana giving part of it.
Stats would be something like
80 AP
15 flat Magic Penetration
+350 Mana
+250 HP
3200 Gold
It would have the same passive as regular , where you get insane mana regen for a short period of time after leveling up.
Anyways, these are just a few ideas, tell me your opinion in the comments! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
