They were removed awhile ago, have you not been here for the last couple of patches or played in awhile?

Umm... if you need mana, take Cookies in your mastery and profit.

Yeah I think it's silly, it's kind of a nerf to ap champions imo considering ad can send out constant damage without the mana and cooldown penalty. Though it really only hurts beginning game, just build a mana regain item or get some mana regain ruins. I have a rune page with +13 mana regain and it pretty much takes care of my mana problem.

right its just a shame because it makes it harder to lane against champs that dont use mana like you said, like akali or vladamir it wasnt very well thought out in my opinion

The issue was that Riot is pushing a "snowball" meta. Mana potions took that snowball away.

For instance, let's say Zed dominated an Anivia. Okay, so she's behind. That wouldn't stop her from getting Cata, Tear and a few Mana Potions and then sitting at her tower to farm with Q R waveclear.

I play Sona, A LOT, and I hate that mana potions are gone because I'd start Frostfang - 2 Red 1 Blue pots and go to bottom, poke with Q for a bit and then pop the Blue pot and continue spamming. Was it fair, not very, was it fun? Yes.

Riot =/= Fun, they hate it. Therefore they had Mana Pots removed so people who spammed spells were punished instead of having a clutch.

Also; With Biscuit, it's not worth the 20 extra mana unless you're in a die-hard situatation.
