@Riot How to fix Supports so they're played for fun

I know you guys are copying stuff from Heroes of the Storm, and now Dota 2. The Hextech crafting is something straight from Dota 2. So take another leaf out of Heroes of the Storm's book, and buff your supports to be naturally tanky or give them high base values so they have good early game power and decent mid to late. A perfect example of a tanky support is Uther, go look at him.

The reason people dislike playing support in LoL is they don't feel impact-ful. Support feels like neutered class, so when you grab a non support champion like , he wipes the floor with them because he is meant to do a lot of damage. "But you have to protect the ADC!", that is not the point. People would rather have support not exist but because of the meta, it is still around because ADCs apparently need them. Unless the support is a CC bot like , it feels like you're throwing feathers at your enemy, and in a 1v1 scenario you auto lose if you're playing a hardline support.

One option would be to buff gold income, so players could roll non-supports and not be crippled in the gold department because the income items would give as much as if you where last hitting the whole time. Supposedly this would unbalance them, but that indicates that supports need to be reworked, if giving them more gold would make them op.

Another option is like what I said at the start, they should buff base damage and stats so supports are some of the toughest early game champions, but fall off later on; Allowing them to establish a strong foothold in lane, and on the map. "they would be op!", again we'd lower scaling so they'd fall off but the idea is they are very scary early on so they pretty much are early game "hyper-carrys".

Where is my credibility? I play support all the time, and I'm pretty good at it. I only picked up support because I got tired of boozos who try support end up getting the enemy bot lane fed and ruining the game for everyone else. However, I hate having to support all the time! I'd like to mid, or top sometimes, but no everytime I do, our support reveals themselves to be a "baddie" and the enemy bot gets fed or the enemy gets fed off bot, and the game is over 90% of the time. There needs to be a change.
