Eh, the group that needs to be worried about isn't AD carries, its supports. There are a lot of things that make AD carries good at their roles (AD ratios, AA animations, AA range, on-hit effects). However supports only need: to be useful in lane, and be useful without farm. There are several mages/tanks that are starting to go in the support role formerly filled by Sona/Taric/Soraka/Janna. See: Leona, Blitz, Fiddle, Galio and its only going to get worse if the current trend continues of constantly nerfing the whole field of them (except Taric)
