Remove Gold Drops

In terms of balance I have to agree. I do not understand riots reasoning here. It just feels just much more rewarding getting items instead of gold. Especially that if you want gold you build pirates this gold drop thing makes the pirate buff less unique and feels much worse than getting items.

Also in lategame (if you come this far) items are a crucial part of the game and if someone has dropped 3 items more than you it feels even worse. It might be that the others also have a better combo but you just see the item count difference and be like "wtf this is not fair"

Generally speaking for a "Fun" mode to play. The Gold drop is just Game Design wise:

1. harder to balance
2. feeling bad for the player
3. makes pirate less unique and less "feel really good"
4. gives the player reasons to see the game as unfair

I do not see any positive thing about the gold drop... dnk why they still stick to this.
