Can I ask why non-tank supports got a huge nerf?

Title, most supports that are not tanks, including all enchanters got nerfed to hell in the patch, no magic resist, no health, not even basic attack damage, when any other champion has at least health buff and health per level, and enchanters have the lowest base values of the game, the runes we put to them with basic armor, health, armor were not even enough to cover their lowest health value of the game and one shotable even by a minion, now they are even more one shoteable when a Janna has near 400 hp and akali has almost 600 ???

This means enchanters will be stupidly nerfed, yes they have shields and heals but why the fuck they are the only champions that are hugely behind? And you wanted the role be more appealing... Yes... in 10 years because nobody will play enchanters again, it will be again tank meta or full of mid laners as supports (welcome veigar).

So why did they do this? And don't tell me they wanted to cut their power because after the insane nerfs to ardent they are not even good, also they are the most team realiant champions.

So? :/ Opinions?

Because this shit has been dominating the META too long now.

No need for this to drag beyond preseason.

Akali is melee and has no access to disruption and damage mitigation besides stealth. Janna has range, disruption, healing and shields. This is why she has lower base stats.

They got armor instead of health because they are going to eat more autos than abilities in that lane. They did not get basic attack damage upgrade because they do not last hit. They did not gain MR because no one did, which is a blanket buff to magic damage.

And if you want your enchanter tankier go resolve/sorc instead of Insp/dom.
