Senna - Why is she classified as a Mage/Marksman?

Just curious Riot..... You marketed Senna as the next Support Champion but in the client she is classified as a Mage and Marksman. Why? If she's not support then her damage is on-point but support spells are OP for that role. If she's a support Champion the her damage is OP. You need to get her balanced and make sure next time your advertising falls in-line with your play style intent and client definitions.

She is a support. Riot has said this. She's a support first, ADC second. If they have to balance her they will sacrifice her ADC role for support. But she is intended to be a dual role champion. Also if you watch the champion spotlight, it says she is a marksman support.

mage because she mainly uses her abilities to affect the outcome of scenarios

marksman because long range consistent DPS

Also to add supports can be mages

Yes but Alistar and Blitzcrank are tanks, so is Trundle, Shin, Poppy, Malphite, Ornn, Volibear, Nunu and Willump, Sion, and Nautilus, Galio, and Maokai, though Maokai, and Galio are tank mages, they still go bot as support, it's been accepted for a long time that some tanks can go bot lane as a supportive tank and side note Alistar is considered a tank support kind of like Tahm Kench, Braum, and Leona and yes Trundle and Volibear are usually more considered bruisers they can still fulfill the tank role.
