[Item Suggestion] Silence

Hello,

what about an item with a single target silence to stop spell spammers in their rotations or catch the stupidly mobile enemy from fleeing? No need to make it last long, maybe 2-3 seconds; 45-60 seconds cooldown. Add some AP / Health / Mana; medium cost around 2-2.5k gold.

Example buildup could be: Ruby Crystal item 1028 (400), 2x Faery Charm item 1004 (2x125), Fiendish Codex item 3108 (900) + 700 gold recipe = 2250 gold Stats would be 200 Health 50% Base Mana Regen (maybe more since it's a final item) 50 AP (again maybe a bit more) 10% CDR (kinda hate the fact that like half the AP items have CDR - so maybe instead an Aether Wisp item 3113 with some MS?) Actice: Single-Target Silence

Too strong? I thought this could be a nice addition for utility supports - stats to survive for a split second longer, and mana for sustain. AP to make it not just a useless item

Maybe just 1 second, lower ap so it’s more a support item and a longer cooldown

Eh... I don't think it would have the effect on the game that you want. You say it will be used to stop mobile champions in their tracks, but it would likely be used by mobile champions to stop others from fighting back or escaping while they're assassinated. Kassadin used to have a silence on his kit and it made him very difficult to respond to when he jumped on someone and started chunking them down then retreated to rinse and repeat until his target was dead (sometimes it would just take one rotation). There wasn't enough counterplay so it was removed. Your item seems like it would bring back that scenario.

Silence is kinda busted, so as a downside it should silence yourself for the same amount with the active.
