What if support doesn't have to go bot?

There are 3 possible lanes and the jungle, the support should be able to go to any lane he desires. This'd keep the game dynamic and fun.

Machete enchantment: Guardian +Require Machete +Passively gain gold and XP, effect is disable for 15s if the user kills a minion or monster. (Gold/XP should be gained at the same rate as live support) +No longer receive shared XP from allies'

Basically, this would let the user roam freely around the map without missing out gold and XP.

Thought?

Newsflash: They don't.

This can work in a few ways, they can be a solo support like Lulu, they can duo lane with your bruiser rather than ADC (viable strat to get your ADC way ahead in exp), or they can be a roaming support (usually they have to be good at ganking (Alistar) or designed to roam (Bard)).

support doesnt have to go bottom, not all the time, in fact many supports roam, bard is a support that was made specifically to do so, other areas i hear do it much more than NA

an interesting concept, but it would likely see a return of the roaming support meta where they lane until sighstone, and then simply roam endlessly securing vision, objectives and ganking. Granted we see that somewhat already, but it would become the go-to way to play

We'd need to get a lot more MS boosts. And ADC's are squishy.
