Riot will never fix support

Their design policy: every item, mastery, and summoner spell should be accessible to everybody regardless of role. But there is a tiny issue here: support has no gold.

In a dream world, every supports should work as Ivern and the issue would vanish. In reality, this will never happen because they will never face the fact that a role without gold cannot be handled the same way as a role with gold.

The only issue with support is that a great support cannot carry a bad team.

Then Riot needs to make a work-around for that. Design support items and abilities that can reward you without needing gold. Items that transform, passives that offer stats, and so on.
