Please let me be able to choose the items the AI has in private practice games.

For starters I am generally really happy with the new Practice Tool. But there is a problem with the way the AI buys items. I get that AI isn't the most practical way to practice a new champ against but sometimes it's better than going into a normal with 0 experience. I understand that in normal games people buy different items depending on the team comp and can often end up with both MR and Armor. But my last practice game, as Fiora against a Darius, he built two MR items which shouldn't happen in a 1v1 against Fiora. Also, there is the fact that even the Intermediate Bots are ridiculously easy that you either let them kill you for gold or you just fastforward the game 10-15 minutes so they can farm minions (btw, 1 hour max game time is kinda lame, considering the AI never even got to full build, either).

What I am getting at is that I would like to be able to give them whatever items I want whenever I want to give them. This could make starting a little more interesting if I give them some extra headstart on gear, providing a better challenge in my practice games. And as an afterthought, maybe increase the max items the AI can have by 2-4 more slots so they don't cap out at the same point, allowing them to still be a little harder (if not in skill, then simply by stats) when I get to my own full build.
