1. BT has more lifesteal (20% vs 10%)

2.Riot will probably never make a chalice item for ADCs. Chalice is focused for mages and supports because their damage/help comes from abilities, not ADCs because their damage comes from AAs.

3. You contradict yourself in even asking for a mana-regeneration item when, no pro ever will buy it. Also you contradict yourself by saying that no one would buy this if it had a mana regeneration item in its build when this item was made to regenerate mana.

4. Manamune drains mana like crazy (and if you aren't using the avtive, what's the point? Waveclear?), is FAR cheaper, builds out of Tear (arguably the second best mana regeneration item), but does not give as much AD.

I don't think Riot will ever make another lifesteal + AS item as it would encroach too much on Both (they even stayed away from it for the remade Wriggle's). Riot really wanted another BFS evolution and this fit the bill nicely for a lot of ADCs. The addition of Idol to the build would be nice. REALLY nice. However, I'm sure that there is concern over the combine cost because it would drop to 350.
