Don't Remove Taric's Shield

As a long time player of LoL (since the start of season one) I can honestly say Taric's rework is looong overdue and I'm happy he's getting one because he's a really cool champion, but removing his shield is just bologna. His character is almost defined by having a big ass, gem'd out, shield. That's not something you should take away. I mean, his title in the game is "The Shield of Valoran", how can you take a shield away from him????

Also the animations just look ugly with a limp arm just hanging there half of the time.
