And before you say 'But smite is a different moba', boots in smite basically did the exact same things as league.

You had the AS boots, Magic pen boots, move faster boots, Armor + Auto Attack mitigation boots, Tenacity boots, etc. Basically copying what League and other previous mobas did.

Yet they got rid of it, in 2021 I think? In exchange, they increased champions MS per level. On paper, that sounds like an absurd change that could end poorly. But in practice? Smite f*cking loved it and it got me thinking, what if League did that?

I would be curious to see how it'd go.

Just to note here for this fun little hypothetical, champions can and would be changed. Look at the items update for example, we had to make large changes to champs like Ornn and Viktor because of how they currently interacted with the item system, but that didnt stop us from doing the changes!. But yeah, very fun thing to think about :D

Honestly curious, I cannot imagine as Smite did that change that you guys at Riot didn't look at that possibility too.

We have not looked into it in the time that I have been here (roughly 2 years), though possibly before, though not to my knowledge.
