Why are supports being overlooked by Riot

I feel as if the meta for ADCs barely made any change. It didn't even target who was really strong at the moment, Ezreal Kaisa and supports are still too strong in the bot lane. Can we get some support nerfs too? Like maybe Soraka can stop having the poking power of a Zyra while still maintaining her healing strengths?

all enchanter support items are being nerfed next patch with the exception of athenes, which actually got buffed. All forbidden idol items lost 2-5% heal shield power and the item itself had its heal shield power and its cdr cut in half.

Just cry more... I guarantee your "Soraka" didn't do 1/4 of Zyra's damage, even if you voluntarily walked right into her skills.

Soraka's not even a top 5 support.

Supports have been nerfed into the ground this season. stop asking for more. It's already barely playable.

As a Bard main, I feel this... With the way things are you can only carry playing defensive supports.Bard

They also need to stop buffing champions who don't need it.

Zyra

"We don't feel comfortable increasing her already high damage" they said...

If you allow her to CC someone for longer, she has a longer window to get more damage off which is a net damage increase in a fight.

Soraka does not have the poking power of Zrya unless you afk in a wave of minions
