Getting sick of all the mages/////not supports mages playing bot lane as support
First, it was Annie, then Brand, now it's getting retarded riot.......you have Ziggs, Vel'Koz, Xerath, Malzahar, Annie, Brand, Twisted Fate, Veigar, when does it hit a point when riot finally realizes this is not healthy for the game. It's pushing supports like Soraka, Nami, Sona, really squishy supports out of the support role their intended purpose. Like even those that are mages supports like Morgana, Zyra, Lux, Lulu, and Karma are now just building ap and trying to ditch out damage like an apc would in mid.......And the only reason it works as well as it does is because mages are meant to kill adcs through burst damage......and because of their range most of them can poke and do a lot more damage making trading really difficult, I'm sure I speak for most players that main support, one reason they don't want to do it is because they don't want to pick Sona, and then have to face Xerath support, it's like wow, at least with Soraka which is a counter to Sona at least Sona still has a fighting chance, but with Xerath at support it takes away her niche......and that's wrong.
Suggestions, nerf their cc make it less oppressive, longer cooldowns, definitely less damage especially in early game...........Make a starting MR item kind of like the cull in case adcs have to face this, where it builds into nothing sacrifice some damage early game, but grant some MR so there's a tradeoff......Obviously doran's blade would still have it's place, while this MR item would only be a buy if and only if your going against a champion that's in lack of better words playing a mage bot lane trolling. Shit maybe make starting items like ancient coin spellthief's edge relic shield only useful on actual support champion kind of like you've done with certain items with melee/range.......Therefore only real support champions can start it. It won't totally get rid of the issue but might help prevent this type of behavior.
I get that riot wants to make more champions useful in other positions but please don't fuck with support role.......I don't like playing with or against apcs at bot lane. I'll accept Lux, Zyra, Morgana and what no because they are supports,,,, even Fiddlesticks........but let's stop with the whole hey they have a cc ability they can support bullshit mentality.

if they really want to and be good.
and either sell it later or make one of these great items from it
