Mages who que into bottom lane support
at least buy sight stone, I don't know how many people I've seen who don't.
support is not mid lane 2.0 so build support item wise or just wait longer to que into mid.

I wish people who ask the support to buy sightstone would also buy wards themselves.
Not saying you are one of those specifically, OP, I'm pretty sure you ward, but I noticed that some people think sightstone supports should be the only one warding, instead of viewing sightstone as a gold-efficient item for supports to supplement team warding.
Went from bronze to plat building straight ap supports. Even had a fizz mid give up and build sight because I did more damage. Sometimes you just need to carry.
This just goes for any support. Get support items
I had a game recently where my friend played full AP Blitz support. He was the ultimate assassin. In all seriousness, I know what you mean. I saw a Sona once who was boasting about how she had the most kills as a support, despite the fact that she build her starting support item and a Sightstone. A total of 1165 gold on support items. If you are a support, you should not prioritize AP. Banner of Command is good. Frozen Heart is good. There are many non-starting/non-rushing/non-essential support items that should have priority over flat AP. Here's a good rule of thumb: If you're even considering building Death Cap or Luden's Echo, you should rethink how you play support.
I'm going to point out I recognize there's no logical reason for me to be getting defensive. I'm also going to state I almost always buy a pink ward and almost always save Haunting Guise for after I have my SIghtstone and Frostfang. :v
I always build sightstone. What kind of crappy supports are you getting? But, bitches, I CAN ONLY PUT OUT 3 AT ONCE y'all need to do some warding to. And I don't mean just your non-upgraded warding totem.
