Psa: support items are not OP

They have just finnaly after 7 seasons reached their potential of power. Adcs have had their potential so when you combine the 2 it seems op because mid lane, jungle and top lane itemization sucks.

Riot should not be nerfing support items as that will be moving in the wrong direction. Instead they should look to make top and and mid items better and or add new ones.

I agree with buffing pure tank items. A tank that goes pure tank items should feel tankier than a support that goes with the supportive tank items.

Support items are broken, no matter how far ahead my team has been anytime i our support didnt build locket an redemption we lost, i was fed ap ez and my bot lane dominated draven braum, now braum counters me by nature and draven picked up a few kills to get his items rolling now the difference in team fights was my adc and myself was completely undefended cause our blitzcrank built abyssal mask and no other defensive items for his carrys while braum built locket an redmp and nunu build locket also. so draven was unkillable due to these items. 2nd game i go 4-1 bot lane ashe is feeding her ass off and so is rest of her team. some bad plays by my team an my support pantheon going pantheon items instead of locket an redmpetion to peel the cammile offme or ziggs and ofc we lose cause cammile just dives me in her ult kicks me for 800 true damage an boom your fed adc is gone, sona held out build both locekt an redmeption and peeled for ashe and she could sit there aaing everyone to death while cammile leaped over 3 walls ulting me with orianna ball on her. our team was legit so far ahead but couldnt win team fights once sona built those 2 items ontop of her own shields an heals.

Even as a support main/one trick, I can tell you they're pretty strong right now, and tank items could use a buff. The main issue lies in ADC itemization, but the support items do contribute a bit. Support items are strong, maybe could be toned down, but they aren't overbearing in my opinion.

overbearing enough to where if you dont have atleast 1 locket and redmeption on your team an the enemy has 1 then you lose every team fight.

another game were our team dominates but we have low frontline top and jungle just damage, thresh doesnt build locket or redemption enemy nami hangs on an builds both uses them on WW and darius an both are unkillable drain tanks that our team just got out lasted in team fights.
