@will I'm not saying those characters should never be played/viable bot, I'm saying they should never be THE MOST PLAYED/VIABLE in bot. Champions who are made for a role (like most supports are) should never be worse at said role than (pardon my crassness) mid champs who fell dick first into the role. It's plain stupid when a champ is forced out of their primary/ONLY role by a champ who isn't even supposed to be there.

The WotBlade here is still way statistically closer to WotA than Gunblade, which is what my problem is with it. Plus the gate on it would definitely be annoyingly hard to balance, like most heals... Hell, it doesn't say if the heal limit applies to heals that are part of the ability and not from the SV, which would probably be hell to code.

Abyssal counts as a defensive item despite its passive because it has a ton of MR. Said MR is also supposed to make the whole item situational to countering a high AP team. So it having CDR is supposedly fine
