Can we please just make the completed zeal items give 25% crit and cost ~2600g?

A full ADC build costs 600g more just considering the 2 zeal items than pre-nerf. You don't have the option of ER or IE giving crit like before, and you can only choose 30%, 60%, or 120% crit. Why not just make the full zeal items slightly more accessible and give 25% crit so its 25% 50% 100%.

It would be a very slightly smaller powerspike but it would clean up some numbers and make ADCs more relevant lategame like they need to be. It would still take 3 fully built crit items (2 zeal items + IE) and you'd definitely have t2 boots before then, so ADCs would still have to invest 10k gold before they'd even be relevant.

The ADC nerfs are going to ruin the game. I don't even play ADC but I want them buffed because I'm tired of mid and top laners being nerfed and balanced around bot lane. EX: Swain and Vlad underperforming in mid/top but being nerfed because crit ADCs are so fucking bad that Swain ADC is good. Let's just fix this before we nerf every champion in the game and balance them around bot lane and cripple them in every other role.

But diversity is good... as long as we ignore the possible balance ramifications it has. Not there are champions that need to be balanced for three lanes instead of just two and the third one is inherently vastly different than the first two.

Crit needed to be nerfed in 8.11 and this is coming from a crit marksman main, I would be ok with a 200 gold buff and the 5% crit chance taken off the final item. 100 gold off zeal and 100 gold off the final item would be a better thing to try.
