A support designed to be weak in lane.. in order to have a gold stealing mechanic

Hear me out.

It would be to counter vayne and hyper carries in lane that just want to farm. This support would have to be paired with a lane bully adc to have the best chance.

such a mechanic would mean this support should be weak since stealing gold would be very strong.

what do you all think?

a pickpocket/thief type champ for support...

just a random idea I had.

If they're that weak in lane, the other team can make up whatever gold they steal by just killing bot lane...

I did like Ashe's old passive of gaining gold with every minion kill. Let me build 'Gold Ashe.' I wouldn't mind some champion who really uses gold as a resource aside from just buying a special item like Victor and the Plankster. A 'smelter' type champion who uses gold as mana for his abilities, or his abilities become more powerful the more gold you spend.

So heavy harrass from a support with item 3303 isn't basically the same thing? I mean you're denying them gold while gaining extra gold for doing it.
