A way to change Kleptomancy

As someone that has played around with this for a week especially as support even as playing on Sona with this I would rather see it as a bonus to shields and heals in a way where it would be grants a bonus amount of gold or a random item after shielding/healing an ally target with a set cooldown of around 10 seconds after it has been cast and does so to an ally rather than on self to prevent self gold gain abuse also.

I know it may sound silly to be honest but to me this I feel would cause the state of the game since it is preseason to go in a healthier direction to prevent champions from turning to this to abuse for a gold lead for damage items with this keystone.

I just want it to be something like tear. An example of that would be 5 procs in 30 seconds with no cooldown. This would make it better on champions with short cooldown who can't really poke and worse on ezreal who can poke all day from safety.

Well that sounds nice but the reason I stated it like that for heals and shields with a cooldown is champs such as gangplank and twisted fate also have a gold income gain bonus already in effect in their kit so giving that, plus them getting a spellthief's egde at the start to get that gold gain and this having this makes it where it becomes truly imbalanced overall for them to have much higher gold leads to be able to steamroll. It may not seem like much but that gold gain in fact stacks up over time when it does in fact come into play and can lead to being really one sided in items where they can kill you faster than you expected than before the change.

Have to remember than before in the past mid laners were in fact taking the edge in mid lane to get a much higher lead on gold so being that it's possible it will happen again because of this keystone I can see a change such as this happen where it leads to it being more towards supports to balance it out in the next few weeks. Another reason I say it should be more towards support in a way as it already gives items that supports need and plus supports got shafted on gold gain in this change as it is even with the debt talent you can get, it only does so much which is why supports really need it more than than the other roles where it goes off heals and shields on an ally target with a cooldown.
