That Support item price change is understandable but...
... if you wanted to limit supports to 2 potions, why put the price at 400 from 350? Before the update I could basically choose between Spellthief + Mana regen item for champs like Nami / Support item + 3 pots for things like Blitz / Support item + 1 potion + 1 control at start for zombie ward champs.
Now all I can do is 2 pots at best, shunning down every other choice you had to start the game? My go to choice for Nami was Spellthief + mana regen item
, since you had your sustain integrated to your kit, while you had better mana regen than the opposing supp, and needed less gold to get to Frostfang. You sacrifice some of the "no mana heal" the potion provides, but it was still a viable choice that kept my win rate as it was. Now you just can't do anything else than 2 pots. Well, except if I manage to buy supp item only, poke 3 times to get 30 gold and back to take the item to come back and help jg/bot. Which practically never happens.
Now, I get that 3 pots is a little too much, but the same thing could have been done if the items were at 375 instead of 350, while still keeping other options viable for supps.
Other supp mains or even other people, what do you think about these changes? Does it feel as restrictive as it is for me? Or are you not caring at all since you had only 1 build early on?
