next season we'll finally have support items that allow all the AD champions to go bot lane

According the the ask riot they're doing a high AD low HP, High AP-Low HP, High HP-low AD, and High HP-low AP version of both relic shield and spellthiefs

Remember when everyone was all like "FACKING MID LANE MAGEZ AS SUPPORTZZZZ", well they're still gonna be around, but so will everyone else

this does in fact call into question the need for a singular bot lane carry, when you could have duo support item builds on AD or AP carries who aren't Adcs. Double relic on an irelia+riven bot lane but the relic gives some AD? "But spellthiefs never made Ekko a good support"

How about an AP relic shield? cause it's coming! Now put that ekko next to a zed and giggle in glee as that little adc gets popped every single time.

Down with the marksmen monopoly!

Zed? Ekko? Do you understand that mages are viable as support because they have high base damage abilities and are long range and offer CC? Zed for example doesn't offer any of that, how come it will ever be good? Are you guys trolling or do you all seriously don't think before posting?

I am thinking support Ashe will be decent.

Just care for the EXP changes, they don't hit ult psowerspikes until far later then mid top.

I'm wondering if now we'll get a lifesteal item that heals your nearby allies as well.

You wont be able to effectively double support item, as you would get entirely locked out of the goldgen and upgrades from lane CS, which effectively just gives you a dead item slot you cant fix with your lane gold.
