In my opinion, there are four general item build paths in league of legends (with hybrids in between), and with their respective support items for Summoner's Rift, these are:

  • Damage (Attack Damage) - N/A
  • Damage (Ability Power) - Spellthief's Edge item 3303, Frostfang item 3098/Eye of Frost, and Remnant of the Watchers item 3092/Eye of the Watchers
  • Defense ("Tank") - Relic Shield item 3302, Targon's Brace item 3097/Celestial Eye, and Remnant of the Aspect item 3401/Eye of the Aspect
  • Utility (Movement Speed, early Cooldown Reduction, more passive-oriented Gold Income) - Ancient Coin item 3301, Nomad's Medallion item 3096/Nomad's Eye, and Remnant of the Ascended item 3069/Eye of Ascension

Clearly, there is no Attack Damage support item line, and I think this could change. Here are the details of what the new Attack Damage support item line could be like (no artwork available):

Disciple's Stiletto Recipe: 400 Gold Stats: +5 Attack Damage, +2 Gold per 10 seconds UNIQUE – TRIBUTE: Grants a charge every 10 seconds, up to 3 charges. Damaging spells and attacks against champions and buildings consume a charge, up to one per attack or cast. Consuming a charge deals them 13 bonus physical damage, and if an allied champion is nearby, also grants 11 Gold. Before quest completion, killing a minion or non-epic monster pauses Tribute generation and the passive gold generation for 12 seconds per unit slain. UNIQUE – QUEST: Earn 500 Gold using this item and upgrade to Zealot's Rapier. REWARD: Permanently upgrades Zealot's Rapier to Zealot's Eye and Remnant of the Creed to Eye of the Creed, giving them the WARDING active with respectively 3 and 4 wards in stock.

while a good idea in a vacuum it should be taken into account that nearly no supports rely on attack damage, with the only one who does being pyke and already having a passive for that, I'd say that unless we get an influx of AD supports this wouldn't be especially necessary
