Losing this item's 20% mana restore on takedown with the 8.4 patch is going to be rough. Yeah the revamped mana (propsed mage first items) have between 500-650 mana on them, but that's only 100-250 more than current Morello. Late game on some mages that's only 2-3 casts of a spell. Not to mention stacking the revamped mana items isn't exactly efficient due to overlapping unique passives and reduced AP numbers on them.

I know they have been playing around with trying to adjustmana sustain around manaflow band on the pbe but mana mages are definitely going to be feeling the mana pain in later game team fights. I have the feeling there's going to be lots of mages opting into ROA and the revamped Arch Angel's that would have normally built morello if for no other reason than the mana sustain hit. The new Luden, maybe for poke heavy champs. The new GLP... probably going to be just like the old GLP, only a handful use it (i.e ASol).
