We have 8/10 champions on tournaments start boots. Sometimes more of this. Riot, bring back the variety of starting items. The best and simplest solution - reduce Enchanted Movement 1 to 40 ms (from 50).

You should probably reduce Enchanced Movement 2 by 5-10 points also - Boots of Speed are almost non-existant in serious games.

You realize that would change nothing right? If everyone is now (insert number) slower, nothing has really changed, except no boots support might get away slightly more often.

Imo they need to make boots of mobility more cost-effective when they go about fixing some more of their items

8/10 champs or more take Flash. 10/10 teams take ADC.

Nerf it all.

Everyone starts with them because they provides something necessary that cannot be easily obtained in another way. They aren't "overpowered" and variety doesn't need to be artificially created by nerfing them.

I'm 100% okay with starting items right now, even if they include relatively little variety.

how do you want to nerv boots 1 as a starting item other than making them more expensive than 475 gold?

you nerv the speed value and it wont change ****, because every champ will be nerved by the same amount. people would still start boots 1.

and why would you even do that? how about instead of nerving everything popular, people are given alternatives instead?

for example revert parts of the dorans nervs. not completely, but enough, that they are a viable start item again. or make them really really cost effective with unique passives like prospectors blade (ring etc.) on dominion.

so they are attractive as first buy, but not stackble anymore.
