What support scales the hardest for teamfights?

They should be decent in lane and fairly meta. From the top of my head I see Braum, maybe leona, thresh, nami, morg and others used a lot.

I say nami, morg, and braum

mostly morg because she can nullify enemy cc with her shield get 3 to 4 people in her soul shackles and use zhonya(if she has it)

This is counter productive for scaling in team fights.

Also technically Soraka would have the highest team fight scaling of any support if she gets gold.

Depends what you're looking for in terms of teamfighting.

(Note: these are in no particular order, I just listed champs that I think are good at that aspect of teamfighting)

Initiation:

Leona
Nami (if you catch someone out with Aqua Prison)
Morgana (if you catch someone out with Dark Binding)
Thresh (if you catch someone out with Death Sentence)
Blitzcrank (if you catch someone out with Rocket Grab)
Lux (if you catch someone out with Light Binding)
Braum* (situationally, counter-initiates well, can follow other champions in but has no mobility himself)
Fiddlesticks* (situationally, can counter-initiate well)
Orianna* (situationally, if you can get someone to dive with her ball attached and then ult)
Annie* (situationally, landing a Flash->Tibbers stun can be clutch, counter-initiates well)

AOE damage:

Fiddlesticks
Annie
Orianna
Nunu
Zyra
Morgana* (if they're stuck in Tormented Soil, also her ult to some extent)

CC/utility:

Leona (targeted stun, aoe stun/slow ult)
Annie (stun passive, aoe stun if used with ult)
Fiddlesticks (fear)
Nunu (slow, aoe slow on ult)
Nami (heals, aoe knockup/slow ult)
Braum (slow, aoe knockup/slow ult)
Lulu (shield, aoe knockup/slow ult, polymorph)
Janna (knockup, shield, aoe displacement/heal ult)
Orianna (slowdown/speedup, shield, aoe displacement/damage ult)
Sona (heal, aoe stun ult)
Soraka (heals, aoe silence, team heal ult)
Zyra (snare, aoe knockup ult)
Morgana (magic/cc shield, aoe slow/stun ult)
Lux (snare, aoe shield)
Thresh (aoe displacement/slow, shield/reposition, pbaoe slow/damage ult)

Peel:

Leona (if not diving the enemy team)
Fiddlesticks
Nami (if not initiating)
Janna
Braum
Lulu
Thresh
Morgana* (situational, anti-CC/magic shield, can snare if she's not initiating)

In terms of overall viability you also have to take laning into account.

Not sure if you'd consider champs like Malphite and Ashe as "fairly meta" supports or not.

Win rates for ARAM are tacked at LOLKING.

Considering ARAM is nothing but a drawn-out teamfight, I'd probably just look at those.

Sona

72.43% win rate in ARAM over the past month. Ever since Howling Abyss was introduced I've never seen her with anything less than a 65% monthly win rate (top 1~2 spot). She's pulled even further away from the top picks after her rework.
