Stop Watch and Enchanter Supports

They make laning phase super boring. Probably the least interactive gameplay in all of league history. Remember when ardent was meta. Bot lane was just all about farming and nothiung significant happened. That is because enchanter supports make it that way. Each and every enchanter support is as boring and less interactive than the next. This is not a rant. I just do not see the need for this type of gameplay. Enchanter supports have been going top lane now because of their low risk high reward kit styles. It just sucks.

The number one problem is when you beat them you are like "oh well that was boring' because all they do is shield or heal or cc for the adc. If the adc dies they are like "oh no" and die afterwards right after the adc. I never feel like it was a fun laning phase against a sweaty enchanter support.

First I peel then they heal and im sitting there like "oh okay thats healthy" all of that work is just stripped away from an enchanter support sitting in the back giving their adc a damn life support system to never die.

Stop watch is also a problem. It makes getting kills just annoying. Not to mention its the only thing good inside the inspiration tree now. We all hate hourglass but at least you have to build it before you can use it. Now you can get free 600 gold to abuse stop watch at drag pit.

Most of the time its just a waste of time. The enemy is about to die... stop watch!!!... 2.5 seconds later... Dead. -_- Its boring and stupid

No one likes playing with enchanters, no one likes playing against them. The only reason we tolerate them is because the egirls need low skill champions to play so they can say "im helping".

The number one problem is when you beat engage supports you are like "oh well it doesn't even matter" because all they need to do is land their CC and you will die in a teamfight anyway. If the adc dies they are like "who cares" and cc you for the rest of their team. I never feel like it was a fun laning phase against a sweaty engage support

Thats what they are supposed to do. And it was nerfed quite a lot already. Heal supports have either huge cds or (Soraka) hp cost, as well as a 800 gold counter. Shield supports had the shield duration hard nerfed with no compensation. There is a reason why almost all Soraka players switched to Q-E max poke and Janna players switched to W max poke: you can't win lane with overnerfed shields/heals Meanwhile Blitz can hook you from 1k+ range and you will probably die lvl3+ or burn flash.

Stop watch is also a problem. It makes getting kills just annoying. Not to mention its the only thing good inside the inspiration tree now. We all hate hourglass but at least you have to build it before you can use it. Now you can get free 600 gold to abuse stop watch at drag pit.

Stopwatch/hourglass is really a problem, and both stopwatch itself and the rune are getting some light nerfs. Not the nerfs I wanted ("broken stopwatch can't be upgraded" or "rune stopwatch can't be upgraded") but thats better than nothing

To be honest with you as annoying and boring are they to play against, I prefer fighting against encanters over poke champions like Brand or hookers like Blitzcrank that won't let me farm because they hide in the bushes like little cowards and some of them even bring item 3364 at level 1. Enchaters let me play the game and don't make me blow summoner spells early on or make me back lvl 3 or even lower.

I'd prefer enchanters to be meta over the mongoloid broken engage supports that are tanky with no items and can 1v2 lanes.
