If you haven't noticed, Riot has mentioned that they're removing items that are picked pretty rarely and not even picked at all.

Why Hunter's Potion is getting removed? Because it's not even picked in both pro games and high/low-elo ranked games. It's picked very rarely for mana issues for earlygame, but when junglers get items which increase their mana to a reasonable amount, it's immediately sold. (This was the reason why Tracker's Blade was removed too. Because in low-elo, all mattered was kills, and CS. No warding at all. It was only picked to Lee Sin and Jax because they can leap to wards, and for some reason, it was a recommended pick for Nidalee. And it wasn't, to be honest. But it was mostly picked in Pro games as warding was a crucial element to find what the enemy is doing during the game.)

But no worries, Riot also mentioned that they are planning to make new items but have some properties of the removed items in the past. Not only Hunter's Potion, but some other items way back from early seasons.
