Items I'd like to see

I've been playing League for a while, and there's just a few "holes" in the item library that always bugged me:

  • A Tank item that has lifesteal/spellvamp. Currently, all damage-to-health items are heavily offensive, and tanks without self-heals essentially rely on regen. It'd be nice to see something that gives me some sustain in lane, like something that adds 10% spell vamp to an item like Sunfire Cape.
  • An AD item with Armor. There's AD+MR, AP+MR, AP+ARM, but no AD+ARM item. And it's not like the item would be useless, it would be a good synergy for most fighter champs
  • An Item that builds out of QSS for mages. Currently, it builds out into AS or AD, two stats full-blown mages care virtually nothing for. So if I want to get out of CC, I either have to rock a Banshee's or Mikael's (which are both defensive, and Banshee's doesn't let you choose what CC you dodge), or have an item slot devoted halfway to stats I don't want.
  • Something that builds out of Crystalline Flask. I get that it's a starter item, but even Doran's ring/shield/blade have relevance until your item slots build up, while Flask falls off fast. I'd like to see an item that simply gives good passive health/mana regen, with an active that boosts it for a short period, or gives the bonus to nearby allies for a short time. I feel like it'd be a good support item
  • More items with auras. Something that would make more teams work together/close by instead of the soloQ splitpush rush.

Lifesteal/Spellvamp on a tank item: This wouldn't work, as in order to utilize these effectively the player needs to deal damage. Tanks don't deal much damage, and are better suited for natural regen items. Also, immortal tanks aren't very healthy for the game. AD item with Armor: Riot has stated that they'll avoid doing anything like this. QSS mage item: Fully agree. Flask: I don't really think flask falls off as heavily as you've described at all. Auras: Hidden power, bad for the game.
