What If riot buffed the support role.

So I enjoy playing support but as I am low elo I don't want to rely on an adc who could very well be garbage. So what if riot buffed the support role as a whole, making supports more able to dominate early game and set up things late game. My general school of thinking is that if the support role because more powerful then more people would be inclined to play the role. It must be said that I don't know how to do this and make it work but this could be a solution to the auto-fill issue. Perhaps lowering the early game of the adc role would also be good. Tell me what you think.

If you want to dominate early game, to set things up for late game, play Karma, Sona, and Zyra.

if they buffed the support role to be stronger early game then said buffed champs would just became mages/bruisers with their now overbuffed kits designed for 0 items.

Now they're getting actual combat stats and are too much to handle

The problem isn't "Supports are weak". The problem is "Support game play is boring to most people".

Wondered whether this was a troll post or not, then realized you were bronze last season.

i think they're fine right now, a little extra gold income wouldn't hurt, but overall fine. there are some that are good early game and some that are better late.

Supports are in a great place imo.
