Why is Pyke support?

I'm just wondering what other people's thoughts on it, and people of cough cough a higher rank, who understand the game more than I do. I love the concept of Pyke's gameplay but what's the reason for taking him in the support role and not just mid?

Well if you took him mid he would spend the entire game under his tower because he has really bad wave clear. Wave clear is also the problem with Jungle also he will barely proc his passive. He can't build health so he won't be tanky enough to to along with the whole wave clear thing. The reason he is support is he has a ton of cc to get his ADC kills, his ult allows him to get a large gold advantage for his lane when laning with another champ. His passive is most useful in bot lane because he will have more opportunities to sneak off quickly to proc it. He is at his peak performance when played support. And if people say that he is better at other roles then odds are they are just bad at him and can't figure out how to use him Cough Cough Redmercy Cough Cough

People've been begging for an AD assassin support for yonks, so two birds with one stone I suppose
