Hey Riot, Could We Have More Interaction Between Items?

It's an idea that has been floating around for some time and generally people seem to like it- since the Red's have been active lately I figured I'd give it a shot and ask, "Can you make the items interact more when you buy them?"

For example: item 3087 Auto-attacks proc a bolt of lightning. Wouldn't it be rewarding to have that lightning reflect what other items you're building? item 3072 item 3181 Red Lightning item 3153 Purple Lightning item 3508 item 3043 Blue Lightning With just a color change that responds to items built, the player would feel like they're actively getting stronger and progressing as the game goes by.

But wait- there's more! item 3025 Conjures up a field of ice on the Sheen Proc. item 3068 Why not a field of flames? item 3001 Abyssal purple energies? item 3074 Maybe a minor cracking of the earth?

Even item 3075 could get in on the action! item 3068 Little bursts of flame burst on the enemy the damage is reflecting on. item 3083 Have little sparkles of green energy sparking on the champion struck? item 3110 Maybe trails of ice?

Speaking of trails of ice- item 3116 ! item 3151 Trail of ice to trail of poison. item 3285 Glowing trails of purple energy.

It just seems like a low-cost and low-key way to make the player feel more rewarded for buying items- even if they don't necessarily go together. item 3025 item 3087 Ice lightning bolt? Field of electrical ice? item 3025 item 3087 item 3068 item 3116 item 3075 item 3001 How about all of them!

Frankly, i would prefer if they only to usability-related particles, like the one of DMP or Statikk. Else it gets too much noisy.

Aside from the massive investment of time that this would require, it would also hurt readability a lot; it can be hard enough to work out and remember who has what to start with, even more so if it keeps changing colors and textures.
