Rune to Make Ranged Champions Melee (Runes Suggestion)

Okay, crazy idea, I know, but I think this could work, maybe with some balancing.

I love the new runes and how they encourage diverse and fun builds, however when trying to build ranged champions as tanks I feel somewhat limited in my options (Can't use the Hydras or Sterak's) and limited to only certain keystones (Grasp feels so bad on ranged champions). So I thought, how, in a balanced way, could Riot have ranged champions benefit from these things without breaking the game?

Well, why not a new Inspiration rune? Inspiration is meant to bend the rules, and turning ranged champions into melee sounds pretty fun and rule bending to me.

Here are my thoughts: Short Sighted - Set attack range to 200 and change champion to melee (Ranged Only).

As simple as the rune is, I can't imagine any huge issues with balancing outside of the attack range needing buffed or nerfed. All the melee only items only benefit AD champions, so mages like Ryze and Vlad would only benefit from this rune with Phase Rush's 75% slow resistance, and I don't see any balance issues with that, considering the old Stormraider's Surge did the same exact thing, but was proc'd differently. On top of that, they'd lose their ranged auto attack CSing ability, so I could see this being fair.

Now sure, this sounds cool, but how could this be practically used? Well, just imagine a tank Jhin using Titanic Hydra and Sterak's Gage, using his AoE damage, E slow, and W root to help his team in fights. Or an Urgot being able to truly be a juggernaut (Sterak's was amazing on him before it was made a melee only item). Yes, of course, all of these would probably never be meta (outside of Urgot maybe), but I don't really think everything has to be meta.

And of course, you can't have 4 runes in one zone, meaning you'd have to replace another rune. Personally I think the Minion Dematerializer is the best option. It feels like nothing but a gimmick and not even fun to use, and to my knowledge isn't required on any champion. Yes, my idea is a huge gimmick as well, but it would also be fun, where Minion Dematerializer isn't all that enjoyable.

For final thoughts, I'd like to start by saying thanks to anybody that bothers to read this essay of an idea. If there are any suggestions or criticisms I may have missed myself, feel free to comment saying what your thoughts are!
