It's less that I think GL was always a resource so much as that it always should have been one in some way, and needs its limited duration in order to maintain its urgency. But, I don't think it needs to be nearly so strong (and therefore punishing to lose) as it is now. We now bank almost a 68% effective damage buff (1.4*1.2) into GL, where it originally only granted 5% Damage and 5% Attack Speed per stack (later 7%, then finally the 10% we have now), a roughly 33% bonus at maximum. I've also always thought it should fall off one stack at a time, albeit perhaps at lower durations each time (12/10/8, for instance), and perhaps have means of rapidly generating at decent frequency much earlier in the leveling process.

Or, to put it most simply, I just don't think having other, potentially better, mechanics means we should leave the foundations haphazard and dull. The foundations, especially, should be solid.
