This system is horrible for support/tank champions that do not get tons of kills. These champions do not get the minion kills for farming gold or enough gold to gear up with the champions they are supporting. Then you buy gold producing items with wont give you the adequate stats needed to be an affective supporter. That is a bad trade off there. Then you buy runes to get more gold. Trading off stats there. Horrible idea. I do agree that assist kills amongst top dps champions is fair since they will so most of the kiling but support champions should be scaled to get the same amount of gold or just share in minion gold. This can happen by identifing a support role at the start of the game and that champion should be allowed to earn gold on a higher scale on assist kills than a normal carry type champion getting the assist.
