even still the combine of old emblem was 100 and new one is 350. **** dont add up.
The old Emblem was extremely gold efficient, even without considering the aura, though. It gave 2 bonus HP5, worth 60 gold, and 5% bonus lifesteal, worth about 187 gold, for only 100 gold, which is pretty massive.
The new Emblem still gives 2 bonus HP5, worth about 30 gold each when compared to the prices of base items, and 10 armor, worth about 16.1 gold each compared to the prices of base items. The stat bonuses alone suggest a recipe price of at least 221 gold.

It is a bad change because they yanked away the 1 item in the game that allowed you to get +Armor Penetration with +0 Attack Damage. This was ideal and a favorite item on heroes such as Matser Yi. You now have to choose between the Brutalizer and the Black Cleaver, both of which have unwanted AD without having the Life Steal which you did want. In other words, heroes like this are now less effective since a core item was taken away and they received no kind of compensation.

unwanted AD
What? What kind of AD champ doesn't want AD? I can see being annoyed about losing the -20 armor aura, since the -20 MR aura still exists, but I'm completely confused as to why 0 AD is in any way preferable to the 55 AD on the Black Cleaver or 25 AD on the Brutalizer. Would you care to explain why Yi, for instance, would want armor penetration but not want to do even more damage besides?

Zeke's Herald costs 2175.
Locket of the Iron Solari costs 2225.
Taking some of my old calculations for item stat values, this means that you're paying about 196 gold for the Emblem's aura, about 426 for the Locket's aura and active, and about 530 for the aura and CDR on Zeke's Herald (I haven't decided how to model CDR value yet). If the aura is hitting at least one other champion (likely, if these are support items), the total stat bonuses for each item make them become gold-efficient, with the Zeke's giving the best ratio, followed by the Emblem and then the Locket.
