Thoughts on clarity?

Are you guys going to address the problem that Flash brings, more specifically, the fact that it's almost mandatory and strangles out the usage of other summoner spells?

What about a spell that gives you increased stats for attacking and activating it would further increase the bonuses?

I mean...think of it like Surge but with 33% of it as a passive and 66% as the active.

Pure mechanical advantage (when it's balanced properly) can be appreciated too, though---ie: Vayne's silver bolts TF's Stacked Deck as example in LoL---Lycan's Feral Impulse an example in DotA.

Flash is not mandatory on dominion and it depends on your team for whether you want it in TT.

However, with SR map design the way it is and how valuable singular kills are on the map with the length of death timers the way they are, flash will always be very very valuable on most champions.

indeed. I don't have a wide variety of champions I play, but I LOVED getting surge on yi. I'd mainly only use it for backdooring... but still

This Pickpocket mastery sounds very similar to my concept from the "Synergy" megathread which refused to die. In my version, champions gained gold for affecting another champion (ally or enemy) with a spell. This made more sense to me, as it allowed for defensive supports like Nunu to still get more gold.

One issue I have with your version of Pickpocket is that, while it seems to reward aggressive play in a way which I like, it also will tend to have a snowballing effect: if you're getting zoned or harassed under your tower, the enemy bot lane will already be ahead in the lane AND they'll be getting more gold from this mastery than you are.

So what is the reasoning behind using autos, which clearly disadvantages certain supports?
