Can Riot please just find some way to freaking delete Brand support?

It's obnoxious having Brand spam his spells throughout all the laning phase with no real mana problems, all while having any ability he hits have strong base damage with % max health damage and the moment he hits 6 his teamfight presence makes him the biggest threat AS A SUPPORT. Sorry if it sounds like whining but it's damn annoying having to deal with another carry in an AoE mage that doesn't even need gold to be efficient while outdamaging every single person in the game.

I get that you're frustrated, but this isn't the way to get your problem addressed.

You've got to analyze the kit and explain what is powerful about it, and you have to do it without raging or whining.

Otherwise you just get ignored and downvoted.

Kinda OP's problem is that he's not really making a cohesive argument against his support function. He merely complaining about it.

I particularly find it Ironic how people will refuse to play support because "They can't carry" yet any support who can carry is suddenly under fire as the most cancerous thing imaginable. However, in my experience, this isn't inherently a problem. WHY? Because playing a damage oriented support comes at the opportunity cost of playing either a Healer, or a tank. (Or anything else) Of coarse the strategic value of a Damage oriented support is going to differ depending on the team comp, and the meta.

The only way to really look at him is to compare him to other supports, and see if he's crowding them out. But again, nothing seems to stand out, as a reason to delete his support presence.
