What even is a balanced support?

Yuumi Pyke Lmfao, this is a viable bot lane.

Taric Sona This is a **serious **bot lane.

Lux shields ten times stronger than Janna but can also ward safely with on-demand spell vision and a root. Also farms item 3303 easier than any champ in the game, which is relevant.

TahmKench In lieu of all of his good support mechanics being nerfed, is a nearly uncontestable top laner if you don't have excessive range or mobility

Nami Too much team fight utility and lane power when you're viable, sorry you have to be gutted like the fish you are. Soraka Same. Rakan Same. You need her, but she doesn't need you at all.

Braum One of the highest presence champions ever invented because he hard counters 60% of the roster and stuns the other 40%.

Thresh A champion whose only weakness is "you can miss skillshots."

Leona ~~I never want to play against Leona as long as I live. ~~ If lane wasn't so abused pre-3, would probably be higher presence. If meta wasn't currently win lane win game, would be nightmare fuel.

Honorable mentions

Annie Remember when a stun was enough, and needing to be in range of your targets wasn't the same as dying instantly?

Zilean More played mid it seems like

Zyra Keeps getting touched down, mana problems, too squishy for support and too low ratio / base dmg for mid.

Veigar Sleeper OP.

Morgana Annoying as hell but rather balanced.

There are dozens of top laners, junglers, mid laners, and ADCs / mage substitutes that are viable in their own right, or in a match up specific scenario, but when it comes to the support pool, there's only the literal most broken crap, or you may as well go Teemo.

You literally named almost all the support champs lol. What are you even complaining about?
