They need to improve mana itemization specifically.

item 3040 is a pain in the ass to build. item 3027 is a pain in the ass to build. item 3001 isn't even supposed to be for mages. item 3100 Won't build this on any champion that can't utilize the sheen proc. item 3030 is okay to build I guess but very gold inefficient and the active is only worth it for certain champs like Asol.

item 3165 is the only safe AP mana item that can be built on any mana using AP champion with a decent build path and cost.

Mages just need a bit more item options especially late game.

Deathcap is simply too expensive with how short games can go. Morello being almost first buy on every mage also a problem.

Compared to adc, apc has a lot less of an impact. Which should not be the case, which should equally be carrying the team.

Maybe all posts qq'ing about mages actually sound like ''BUFF MAGES XD'' ?

I just want more AP.

Take away CDR for that. Make my abilities less spamable but hit like a Truck.

Reav3 wants to look at this next year hopefully. He asked for people to offer suggests to help so if you got good ideas do share.

Extremely hypocritical.

You people said buffing ADC itemization was a buff to ADCs, but now are saying buffing Mage items is not a buff to Mages.

Explain.

It is to make their kit more fluid like ADCs.

of course it does, changes always mean that, if they're OP they nerf the champions, itemization changes always are made as a lazy way to buff the whole role

I always thought of a rework for ludens echo where you remove its current siv-like effect and replace it with something like "ranged spells gain 10 or 20% more range" i mean it makes sense for a wand. Focus and extend the power.

While asking for changes to ap itemization might not mean to buff mages

It doesn't mean Riot will be able to achieve that without breaking something in the progress and you know it

I think lich bane should trade mana for ad to make it a hybrid item like gunblade.
