I miss the old days of spellvamp...

The reason Riot doesnt want casters to have spellvamp is because unlike lifesteal, you have no real way to know how the caster is going to use the spellvamp because every caster has a different way to use their magic, while AD champions have to auto attack, wich gives you only 2 options: Melee or ranged.

Imagine if lifesteal were as good as lifesteal, and the enemy Lux could make use of it? You could never get her out of lane. Idem with Heim, Idem with AP Janna. So you have to make spellvamp crappy for those special cases, the bad thing is that Riot made spellvamp WAYYY to crappy IMO.
