Thoughts on a 'shieldbreaker' item

What are your thoughts on a new item that does extra damage to shielded targets? The item I am thinking about would only do more damage to shields, not hp.

It doesn't even have to be a large amount, for example 10% extra damage.

Scenario example: Champ A has 1000hp and a 100 point shield Champ B does 50 damage per AA

Champ B with shieldbreaker item does 55 damage to the shield. If the shield is broken the extra damage will not apply to hp (instead it could maybe have another effect, I don't know)

This item would be totally situational and will help deal with cancerous shield comps.

Discuss.

YES because traditional supports aren't shafted enough as it is, let's make an item that counters those who rely on shields and aren't countered by grievous wounds. Brilliant idea, then FINALLY we can have nothing but FASCINATING Annie vs Leons match ups.

Can't wait.

maybe on aram. otherwise? nope.

some tanks main (or even only) defensive steroid are shields. and something like this would totally screw them over.
