A New Support Champion
I can't wait for a new support champion. As much as I love both Thresh and Leona, supports right now feel kinda stale. So stale that I play off meta but viable supports like Syndra or veigar (only in normals of course).

Ivern is a support jungler. He can also be played decently well as a support, from what I've heard. Sure, he doesn't have use of his passive as a support, but he doesn't need it, since his whole kit is themed around helping his team and his passive is literally there to allow him to function as a jungler without needing combat stats to clear the jungle like every other champion who has ever been played as a support jungler before. Q is like a Morgana Q, but allies who basic attack the enemy he Q's will dash into auto range (really useful for AA based or short range ADC's, like Twitch and Lucian). W let's you fill up your lane with bushes. You can quite literally make a bush path from the tri brush where your jungler can gank from at any time and not be seen by wards. Also can be used to let a Rengar be a jumpscare kitty and as a decent way to hide a Twitch while he's slipping into stealth for a sneaky engage. E is a nice shield that deals decent damage and slows for a lot when it explodes (70% at all ranks, guessing that's gonna get hit the patch after his release, but he'll get some nice buffs as well). And his ultimate is better peel than Janna's in my opinion.
As a Twitch main, I'd much rather see an Ivern as my support than a Janna. Mostly because most Janna players have no idea how to actually play the game.
