I feel like supports do too much damage Pre lvl 10

It feels like you get solod by the support now. Blitzcrank static field does 250+ right at level 6.

Namis ebb and flow is doing around 140 Pre 6 with a major heal and empowered autos

Idk man. Im bad but this is crazy now. My death log is all support damage. One blitz hook = 180 + 110 powerfist + 300 static field boom you're dead

Supports are supposed to be doing that amount of damage. What you don't realize is that they dictate the flow and control of the lane and the ADC's need time to scale and be more relevant, although I think that Zyra's near 100-0 combo level 4 on half of the ADC cast is a little bit too ridiculous

Agreed. Zyra's damage output is too consistent throughout the game. I've topped the damage to champions table several times with her with only Liandry's and Rylai's for damage.

The intent of the support position is to bring a strong early presence to make up for the marksman's typically poor early game while they try to scale up. Most supports split this power between early offensive pressure and more defensive utility. Blitzcrank in particular brings very little in the way of defense to the table, instead loading his power budget almost entirely into a devastating offensive combo. He can use the crowd control to hold off an opponent, but he cannot directly buff or defend his partner in any other way.

Imagine that, early game before items make people stronger, almost every champion does a lot of damage.

Yeah so blitz doing a 300 static field at level 6 is balanced you're right.

Considering he just got his ultimate's CD basically doubled, yeah.

60 seconds..? Almost every supports ult is on a minute and half + Timer. No you right tho 300 at level 6 is fair.

He doesn't? He does 250. Lots of other champions have numbers right around the same area. Then Blitzcrank's ult is also pretty small point blank AOE.

Don't get me wrong, I hate Blitzcrank with a passion, but his Ult damage is not the problem.

250 on an aoe silence with short cooldown after getting knocked up for 150 after getting stunned +displaced for 200 No. Thats not balanced at all

I know not everyone realizes this, but supports are suppose to carry the early laning phase and feed their ADC's, this includes hard CC, more Damage to harass early, most ADC's need one or two items before they hurt so supports hold them through early game so that kills can happen prior to buy whatever those items are.
