Better version of Karma?

Hi, trash tier Silver player here in need of some advice. I like playing support quite a bit, mainly Morgana but she is banned often. When that happens, I enjoy playing Karma. I like that she has great poke in the lane phase and good CC with R+Q and W. Her shield helps out a lot in sticky situations as well, however I feel like late game she doesn't offer enough.

For instance, with Morgana her poke is also a snare, which I love, and her spell shield is priceless. Late game her ult can out right win team fights. I feel like she is solid all through out the game. With that said, I feel like Karma isn't quite as valuable the later the game goes. Her slow is decent when landed well, and her W can peel pretty well from my experience, but I just honestly feel like she doesn't offer enough (not near as much as Morg).

So my question, am I playing her wrong? Does she have just as much to offer late game as Morgana? Or is there a better Support that has a solid role all through out the game like Morgana with good CC/Poke? I know my item choices aren't the best, I gear towards too much AP when I should be building more support items, but kit wise I just feel that either I don't know how to play Karma late game, or her kit doesn't offer the late game potential like Morg's.

tldr; Is there another support that does what Karma does, but better?

Any advice is appreciated!

Karma is overpowered, no one found out yet though. (or no one plays her) She has AoE shield that does damage, sustain and snare with w, and a nuke with q The difference is, karma's q has much short cooldown and it's aoe/easier to land, and when you mantra it, it becomes a huge nuke

Karma is an anti-melee so i dont see anyone else that does what she does better

Late game you almost always want to save your mantra for E, the AOE speedup is extremely useful for either disengage or chasing. That's basically Late game karma strats, just cc whatever you can and speed up the team when they need it.
