I've been thinking How amazing LOL would be with ultimate items, For example. Kalsita's Spear. Like that. Or every champion could buy the ultimate item that would change parts of a skill, For example Zigg's ult. He would probably have to buy something like" Mega Bomb" An it would upgrade his ULT drop range, like increase the amount of range when the skill would drop, like when u see the mark on the floor of his ult. Make it larger with the ultimate item.The ultimate items would probally coss around 4000 gold. Ofcourse it would be op that's why it would coss a lot.

The problem with this is you have to design every champion not only around their abilities and their itemization, but now also around unlocking additional abilities with a champion specific item. That may not sound like a lot, but given the amount of other balancing factors already in the game it would add quite a lot of complexity.

You don't still have the problem of win Champions built the item. If the benefits were really strong, a lot of Champions would probably rush it over things that might be more useful otherwise. Conversely, if you solve this problem by making it a very end game item, it will only ever be seen by a fraction of the player base in games were they're fed enough that they can complete their item build.

Why?

Nah, I'm not a fan. For one thing, it would either add no combat stats, which is silly to spend 4k gold on stats, or it would pidgeon hole champions too much into what Riot wants champions to be. Let's take Ezreal for example. His ult item would likely increase his AD stats as opposed to AP, weakening AP Ezreal. This would punish off meta picks and really begin to make every game be the same champs over and over, especially in LCS.
