i read the patch notes and i see that bounties are changed so that the only people get the shutdown bonus is the people getting the kill which is barely even good even if its blind pick with two pykes this means that if the support is behind they cant get the bonus gold because they didnt last hit the champion for the adc or something to get the kill this is worse for theam also because although one person gets way more gold than the others if the team as a whole is behind and one person isnt behind on that team they arent gonna bring the game back most of the time also ik i have asked this multiple times but can you bring back the items you removed in patch 8.2 because this was the biggest support nerf out of all of them because you litteraly removed a core item and didnt give much compensation because to get the actives for item 3306 item 3312 you have to spend more gold and another slot although i used it for ruby sightstone (not even mentioning about face of the mountain due to how hard it hit tank supports cause of it) also if are behind on your quest (which is easy if you dont go ancient coin on thresh although i dont play him ik it is hard) you cant start warding unless you keep on buying control wards which isnt even cost efficient because usually when you are behind on quest you behind in game and you are not pyke and buying control wards means you can not buyitem 3190 item 3107 item 3504 as fast as you need it although there are more gold problems i cant say them all so i will just state the two biggest ( in my opinion) and hope you will fix them

Wall of text, not punctuation. Fix it, please, no one wants to read that.

You have to make this post more comprehnsible.

I have a very hard time understanding what you're trying to say, besides "I don't have enough item slots and can't be bothered to buy item 2065 item 3905 "

Getting gold on supports has never been easier afaik and your items are cheap as hell. barely anyone still bought the standard final form support items over the sightstones and while i do think making wards the reward is not very interesting, it's still fine tbh.

Supports losing items while being broken doesn't mean we need to compensate them to stay as broken as they are.

As for bounties. Thank god they're changing it. Sorry you're no longer getting gold while being 2 kills ahead bot cuz your jungler and top managed to get a hold of me while 5/0, pushing your botlane lead even further. If you want to win, work for it.

andtry to make your text readable

what i mean to say is how support is with gold when playing behind cause when your behind and not supposed to farm or get many kills your support item especially spell thief's edge is hard to finish to even start warding yea they are strong but all core items for roles have to be strong or the role will be too weak and the and meddler may have said that but thats mostly because heal and shield power items like item 3504 got series of buffs

Full stops. Use them.

With that out of the way, supports need to be nerfed, not buffed, at the moment. No need for any compensation. They get extremely efficient items in a time where gold access has never been higher. Oh, and Meddler mentioned that they will be looking into those support items because they re too efficient and also the power of shields, so yeah, screw supports.
