Chemtech Fumigator is giving support champs access to Grevious Wounds when their team really needs it. The CC amplified effect is a great way to emphasize skilled play.
Staff of Flowing Water expands the buffing ally options beyond Ardent Censer and focuses on AP heavy teams. This item is also very attractive for AP support hybrids like Sona or Lux.
Ixtali Wardstone is a very unique item to fill the unique needs of supports. Rather than having to never build a 6th item in order to have room for control wards, this item can carry them and allow you to complete your build.

As a Game Design leader a super frequent part of my job is to run brainstorms or problem solving meetings with the team
(Because it’s not all about a single genius coming up with all ideas)
After a lot of these I’ve found it’s not one size fits all - here are 3 that I like:
1. The round robin - this is for when you want deeper discussion and conversation to happen. It’s not about the most ideas or coming to the answer in one go as much.
State your topic, go around the room to let each individual pitch an idea or even just muse on the subject
Everyone else in the room is listening so there is a lot of good “oh I could use that to adapt my own thinking” going on in peoples heads.
Also after each speaker you can have a brief window for others to chime in with their “yes ands” or “hey what about this problem”
Last but not least is Fighters. Mythics and changes in thread:
Death’s Dance and Ravenous Hydra
Death’s Dance was definitely filling the “everything item” role with damage, vamp, and both resists. We’re refocusing DD into an armor fighter item and opening up Ravenous Hydra to fill the “caster AD vamp item” role.
Black Cleaver and Blade of the Ruined King
Black Cleaver and Blade of the Ruined King are adjusted slightly but still fill the role of “tank busting” item for fighters. Cleaver for spell focused fighters and Bork for auto attackers.
AP Mage Mythics and thread (Including AP Assassin and Fighter)
AP Fighter/Assassin Mythics
After Mythics we want AP assassins to draw from the normal pool of AP items.
For AP Fighters we want them to draw from AP items and flex into tank items late game optionally (like AD fighters).
Demonic Embrace is our AP bruiser choice that allows them to maintain a core damage item and later flex into more AP or Tank stats.
