After "immobile mage" update... we finally get Support Update, right?

The Mage Update is just around the corner, following suit from the Marksmen Update, and before that the Juggernaut Update revamped top lane items and champions. Though it wasn't an 'official update', the jungle and items underwent significant changes over the last season. All that's left is for supports to finally get the attention they deserve...

Maybe some day they'll be able to maintain their level and not have their items nerfed because of mid laner abuse.

I don't think they're separating the supports from the mage update, apparently Zyra's update is focusing on her support aspects.

Unlikely. Supports are actually in a decent place identity-wise: most of them are MUCH more distinct in their role than many of the other categories that exist.

I think we're going to see the following before Supports:

-Dive Fighters -Pure Tanks -Initiation Tanks -Duelists/Skirmishers -Assassins -At least one other Mage subclass

Technically support were one of the first class update when they introduce support item and added sight stone but I wouldn't mind if riot take a look at them again.
