Supports with bad scaling are the exception, not the norm. Leona intentionally has shit scaling. Nami intentionally has shit scaling. That's about it. Supports aren't balanced around minimal gold either. Many of them predate the Eurolane bottom (ADC + someone who builds GP10 and doesn't farm) that became the game's standard bot lane. A whole bunch of them were never, ever designed to be partnered with an ADC and never farm. Sona, a champion designed for that environment, was a massive design failure. Lux launched as a support and went middle (excellent scaling). Orianna launched as mid or support (excellent scaling) and never went bottom. Zyra launched as an AP carry middle and ended up bottom (again, excellent scaling).This is a bit of a chicken and egg argument. Supports now are balanced to be good with minimal amounts of gold and bad scaling. For a long time a lot of the supports had very strong AP scaling back when it was expected for them to build a full set or nearly full set of gear. The meta switched to favor the few champs who could manage with no items and then other support champs were balanced to be able to function in that style meta as well.
If they go back to expecting supports to have a full item build then the scaling can go back to how it used to be and so they would scale in power as does every other role in the game.
S3 doesn't end until the 11th of November so we will absolutely not enter preseason until at least then.VERY much looking forward to playing in s4 with these changes. S4 looks like it will have best QOL update league has had since I've been playing. Info on when patch will go live?
I'd just like to point out that i'm in silver now desperately grinding games trying to get my elise by season end =P.It doesn't and unlike you I have empathy for players at the bottom who never go anywhere and never understand why. Even the combative ones like Wizardhawke.
I honestly didn't know you could get zero points at anything other than D1. I didn't think it even did that.This shit is stupid.
I've been at around 95 points for over a week. I've won 8 out of 10. I am at 99 points. Zero points last game. What a load of shit.
I looked at your history the other day and saw you had won like 6/8 and were only at 98 points. Game disapproves of your methods, I think.Win another one, zero again. This is bullshit.
On a more positive note, I just got a hearthstone key. I traded for mine so if someone wants to give me a Dreadknight Nasus skin or some shit it's yours.
