I'm liking the S3 changes to Doran's Blade and Ring. +5 Hea;th per AA benefits AD Carries and AA-Reliant Bruisers. +5 Mana per AA means Mages have a way to get back mana instead of recalling/bugging the jungler for timers on blue. But I'm really unsure about Doran's Shield. I haven't seen anyone build it in S3, ever. Blocking 5 damage isn't that much out of (on average) around 50-100 AD. IMO I think it still needs some changes, because at the moment it isn't popular. Why would you build shield on Malphite when you can just build Ring and have Damage+Mana? Why build Shield on Volibear when you can just build Blade and have even better health sustain than before? Personally I believe it would be good if it gave mana and health back on AAs, but 5 is a little too much, because ADCarries and such could abuse it. Making it 2 or 3 would be good.Although I'm really not sure. What does everyone else think of the new Shield?

Doran's shield should reward you for being hit with spells or Autos. be it in bonus AR, MR, HP, Mana anything. then it benefits you "using" it.

You people...
