So, by your analysis, getting 900g more than your opponent from just KILLS, without counting the assist money you have up there, or the farm advantage you'd have from them being dead, shouldn't amount to anything. One should still be unable to slay tanks in a reasonable period of time, or be able to use AoE nukes as actual nukes.

Also - there are plenty of champions that aren't mages that deal magic damage. Ezreal and possibly Hybrid/AD Evelynn. Jax as well. Not to mention Baron... Poor Baron Nashor, he's just getting owned now.

What I think is that mages are fine, and you're overreacting to the fact that people have issues fighting the burst potential that many mages have. In my days of playing LoL, the mage has always been the juciest morsel, eaten second, right after the AD Carry. I have relatively few issues with them. Sure, sometimes they get fed, and that can be a big deal (Namely Cassiopeia) but I don't think of them in an extreme a way as you do.
