Support items in Twisted Treeline

Please remove Support items from the 3v3 map (Especially ). They have created this weird meta for carry-support duos which level up scarily fast and farm double the amount they would normally. It ruins the fun of 3v3 which is to get right to the fighting with a very simple team comp. It's meant to be fun and relaxed, but it is almost impossible to counter that strategy, unless both teams are adopting it. Please just remove the items. It should be 2 laners and a jungler. Supports are almost never played as such in 3v3. Please.

The support items don't give extra exp though.

No, and, as of the last support meta nerfs a few months ago, Riot disagrees as well.

I have no intentions of enforcing a meta on TT. Current problem though is that the person getting funneled XP and gold is just scaling too hard. With tuning on the champions that often appear in this role being done for SR, where there are 5 enemies, gameplay becomes degenerative pretty quickly. Unfortunately, we no longer do map specific balancing and have no intentions of starting that up again so we have to make a systemic change. Support meta will still be viable and if that turns out to not be true, we'll be doing follow up work to ensure that it is :)
