What if Ashe was actually redesigned to be an offensive support?

Why does she need to be a range dps? Why not introduce something new to the meta/design of the game. She's a CC archer so why put in her in a spot where she slows the enemy down for her allies? Have a long range support that can stand next to the carry slowing down the target for her allies to take them down.

I don't know what you guys think but I think it would be nice to bring a new type of support into the game to alter the meta when she is used.

Ashe is an iconic character so I doubt they would change her role this drastically. However, she can be played as a support, and does fairly well

I already play support Ashe. :D You can actually charge your passive to poke since you're not csing, and in teamfights, you just spam volley with all your CDR from support items, and your adc is safe.

I swear I've seen that concept before somewhere.... Janna Lulu Zilean (E is now a 99% Slow at level 5)

Ashe support is already a thing, as another post mentioned, grab a bunch of cdr and the Talisman of ascension for movement speed. Then rush the Frozen Mallet. The slows on the slow is ridiculous, even the fastest most mobile characters can't get away. Synergies with Jinx, Graves, Lucian extremely well.

No. People need to stop trying to change this champ she is great the way she is. Just because all the new adc's get released on steroids doesn't mean ashe is bad.
