I really want to change Flash. Here is an idea I came up with.
This started as a response to the keybinding of flash article, but got a little long and I would love to hear your thoughts on this.
I really want to get rid of flash as a Summoner spell. Would love it to maybe be on like a charge system, start every game with 10 flashes, and you get to chose how and when to use them. Games go for about 30 minutes to 50, longer than one hour games are huge outlier, so flash with a 5 minute cooldown is really only being used 5 to 7 times a game. This would also allow us different and new play styles: go aggressive super early, might be bad late game. Save them all for late game positioning, may end up feeding.
This would also allow us to have so many more choices in summoner spells. ADC with Ignite heal, or barrier heal. Mid Lane with Clarity and ghost, Barrier Ignite. would open the game up so much.
Also flash is taken in 96% of games. This is why they gave us a global homeguard. Why not do it with flash? Also bring back some of the older Summoner Spells, maybe revamp them!
