What if you did support items the same way the new jungle stuff works?

After thinking about it a little, I feel like it would be amazing and add a nice bit of diversity to a very under-loved role. Have the base items that work off what's already there for income and perhaps something else, then convert the stats into enchants and you could have a whole new world of supporting :)

I don't think this can work and this is why:

Unlike junglers that start with item 1039. Support start with stats depending on what champion & what role in support they are playing. An Braum will probaly start item 3302, item 1028 or item 1054 while a Nami will probaly start item 1028, item 3301 or item 3303. This means they build depending on the matchup they are facing.

Let's say whe implement your idea and all supports will start with a item that gives 300 health & 5 movementspeed. A lot of supports will gain a disadvantage early and force them into one start. Riot just tries to make more diversity in builds & you just force them into one.

why dont we just have 1 item for Top/mid/adc/sup and jungle and we all have to start that item, and it builds into all 6 items, then we wouldnt have to have a brain to come up with ideas as we could all just cs and pick champs that scale off the items built.
