Why is riot refusing to nerf mage supports?

Every single one of them boasts a winrate thats more than stellar while still maintaining a relatively high play rate. They are also boring to lane against, just spamming skillshots or heals from the backline without any real way to punish them. Why are all the other roles always nerfed so quickly if a champ sticks out but supports just get to have it their way?

Because most of them have low play rates. Play rates in diamond: Zil 4% Zyra 3% Vel 3% Brand 3% Xer 1%

Like morg and lux have good play rates but there both built for utility and not damage so there closer to enchanters then being a mage and there both outliers.

Also WHAT MAGE HEALS???
