Hey so im seeing a lot of "nerf supports and support item threads" so i want some clarification.
When people say "ADCs arent a problem supports are" youre talking about enchanter supports like
with items like
and
, right?
Not supports like
who lack the strong EHP itemization and scaling enchanters have?
In all seriousness can we just make "support gold income" as efficient as the laners farm and get rid of this whole "support budget" thing so that support champions can be balanced like real people and not slaves to the almighty marksman?
Like.... Get rid of
and replace it with something like;
Visionaries grasp: 450g
Unique active: Warding (contains 1 charge, refills at the shop or on kills/assists)
Unique passive: Shared glory: Minions who are killed by an allied champion grant you gold as well.
This can build into sightstone, and from sightstone it can build into the Eye items but with different build paths and better stats. All of these items would have shared glory instead of their "unique" gold generation passives.
