Brand support

Is it just me or does it seem like Brand support does way too much damage for being a support? It seems like he does more damage than their normal mid laner a lot of the time. Is this just me or is this a common problem?

Brand is not a support but instead an AP mage with some of the base base stats among mages of his type in the mid lane, because of this he's been taken bot for his great early damage, aoe abilities, and decent CC. 1 other reason that is mainly for high elo play is the fact by using him as a support you can still retain a decent amount of the potential brand has as a mage while also opening up mid for 1 more mage or other type of burst champion.

If he continues to be played as support he deserves to be gutted, it happens when a support sees alot of play in other lanes it should happen when ap modlaners come bot

Oh so nerf Veigar and Annie?

What about Zyra? Zyra works equally well in both mid and bot (though bot is slightly better), and while originally designed as a midlaner, she ended up becoming a support after her big nerfs (though warranted, release Zyra was crazy).

Both annie and viegar have been nerfed because of this.

Annie got her base stats nerfed and ratios increased

Remember when veigar stun was instant, yeh that got changed because of botlane. Ap from kills and assists needs to go aswell tho.

Zyra is hard to balance because of her kit, notably her plant mechanic.

You miss out morgana from your list, perhaps the best mid to bot swap of them all.

Her ratios and base damage is decent and to the best of my knowledge hasnt received a damage nerf because of this.
