aegis was always good because it allowed:

-tanky junglers to enable their ganks to be less risky (by making their lane allies harder to kill and allowing them to pursue more aggressively)

-good on any support because it granted AD for your carry and any exchanges made in lane would be more likely in your favor due to the added armor.

-THEN late game is grants all these bonus to the entire team for team fights.

Good during the laning phase for multiple lane assignments and good for late game team fights.

This is why Aegis's AD and armor is getting nerfed, it was a good item to rush and it didn't hurt your late game.? Now, it's a little bit less useful early game, but better late game due to its new upgrade.
