Could you give us mana potions back? ＼(*^▽^*)/ (¬‿¬)

They had an incredibly detailed explanation back when they pulled them, but the super short version is some champions depended on them way more as a starting item which caused an inherent imbalance. They didn't like the idea that certain casters would have to start with it and then have them get paired up against someone without mana at all. As an example, can you imagine the field day a reworked Kat would have some some champs showing up to lane with half their gold devoted to mana pots?

I actually liked having them as an option myself, but unless they want to rework every caster's mana again, I don't think they're coming back.

Back in the old days when Yorick would show up with a Sapphire Crystal and two Mana Pots.

would be nice but like 2 champs at best actually NEED it lol
