I know a better name for catcher supports!

Warlord.

Now catcher is a very on the ball but silly name. It accurately describes what these supports generally do (Thresh, Blitzcrank) by catching people, but the role as a whole is supposed to be a more aggressive support playstyle.

So why not call them Warlords?

The definition I found is as follows: a military commander, especially an aggressive regional commander with individual autonomy.

Now granted I’m cherry picking here, but Support champions are often best described as playmakers, leading through macroplay and making sure their team survives. Warlords are leaders of their respective and aggressive groups, so they act as “supports” in a way.

So let’s call aggressive supports Warlords instead of Catchers!
