so... eliminate everything but keystones, and make even more of them

sounds terrible

Some champs need those stat boosts... especially the ones that can do multiple positions (like a champ may want AP as a mid, but tankier in bot as a support. or, they may be one who could go top or jungle, and needs more offense as a jungler to speed up their clear, but more tanky stats as a top so that they don't get bullied out)

but since you say you want the kind of gameplay that Riot encourages, but then keep insisting on making Support Shaco a thing, i wasn't expecting much
