Supports (and other role champions)

Look, I'm not sure if you guys noticed it, but I have. Lately, all I've been going up against bot lane is Morgana or someone like Thresh. Seriously, it's like these guys are the only supports in the game right now. They're just so good right now, they stand out against all other supports. I'm tired of going against the same people over and OVER again. I'm not saying they are broken or anything, I'm just saying that these super popular supports definitely need at least A BIT of tweaking because there's obviously something that's making them so popular and what makes a champion popular is if they're strong. For example Thresh vs. Blitzcrank. Without hesitation, anyone who have common sense and logical reasoning would choose Thresh just because he's simply better. His pressure is insane compared to Blitz and has an incredible engage/disengage kit. It's just unfair for Blitzcrank players because Thresh just has so much to offer. Then the Blitzcrank players would move to main Thresh and now there's barely any blitz players now. This is just a scenario, as there's still a lot of Blitzcrank players, but this did happen to many other champions. I just hate how there's so much champions cast aside, not even supports but champions from every role are cast aside.

Think about it like this. What's the point in making new champions if all the players are going to do is just play a select few champions that are above all else?

not to mention any meta breaking is nerfed to hell

That too. If someone finds anyway to break the meta and actually succeeds in doing so, Riot just smashes that idea with a nerf. A perfect example of this is Alistar top. He was doing so good but then Riot smashed him with the hammer. A change in the meta, gone like that. Wow.

So far, every Thresh I've seen has been absolutely useless in everything. Most Blitzcranks are beyond FABULOUS.

The real reason we only see supports such as Thresh / Blitz / Morg, is because Sona / Lulu / Taric / Janna can't get easy kills. You also won't fined meta breaking because anyone who could be a support is now so batty they cannot tolerate the position anymore.

Lulu took it too hard in the Ashe with all of the nerfs, while Thresh is overloaded and Morgana has a supreme kit. But i would just like to point out, that Janna is a god tier support. Why not pick her up? She is simply amazing, free elo too.
