IMO they rework this item. Make it a support item and create a new item for Spellvamp users. As a support I dont have a lot of options to support AP champions (like the old Sould Shroud)

1)This item seems cool on supports as they can provide spellvamp to the team, but because it is too high on AP, pretty expensive, doesnt build out of a gp/5 and doesnt have that much singery with bot lane, the item is not useful on supports.

2)On the other side, this item shows the worst part of mages: It is useless on 90% of mana based mages. Cassiopeia and maybe Karthus can use this, but all the mages that have to deal with mana to sustain their power (Lux, Zyra, Orianna, Zilean, AP ezreal, Ziggs etc) they cant use this item not even as a 6th item because of the spellvamp nerfs and because they are paying for an aura that they may not use. So, champions that cant stay in lane forever because of mana cant use this item, meaning they will get low on mana and HP eventually.

3)Also, manaless AP champions can abuse this item: Akali, Rumble, Mordekaiser, Vladimir, Katarina Kennen etc. So, they can both spam because of lack of cost and keep their HP. This makes then good on top lane, and is one of the reasons of the "omg X champion OP"

IMO they should make this item a support item, that way double wotas would be lame. Make it give less AP to the owner and make it give you CDR. That way support could choose WOTA to help the team, the same way a support would buy Banner of Comand to support pet users and pushers.

Then, another spellvamp item, but for casters, without an Aura. That way you could spend your money on spellvamp only without "doble wota" strategies, making it easier to balance. A mana based item with spellvamp for example would be hard to abuse by manaless mages.
