Double carry bot lanes

Can we talk about the rise of ap carries in the bot lane ever since the removal of sight stone? I have been seeing it constantly, first, it was lux, then Annie, then vel'koz, then brand. All of them building the item then straight damage. Hell, most of them don't even finish the support item. Dealing with the burst they put out on a regular interval is getting absurd. If they want to play a carry bot lane, they shouldn't pump out that much damage with no chance of retaliation.

What good is an AP mage support when ur enchanter support can heal and shield all the damage they do. There might be an increase in AP supports, but in general they are not better than enchanter supports.

the alternative beeing playing a carry that does not significant more dmg than an enchanter/tank who already deals a good amount of dmg early on, eliminating every chance of snowballing the lane in the process.

I always start the support item when I pick an AP support. You need to understand that supporting isn't fun unless you're in a premade and can actually have a meaningful impact on the game. If your ADC is dogshit, you can at least score some kills and slow down the snowball if you play Lux or Brand. I love playing Thresh, but I only do it if I can communicate with my carry through voice chat.
