User blog comment:Big Lupu/The Curse of the Supports/@comment-6385806-20130419191459

Supports arent goddamn carries, their point is that they provide huge utility to your team, not that they KS or duel other people. ALso there would be literally no reason not to play leona top with 15% max hp. Thats huge for someone with 3 types of hard cc. Besides that when you said the most fed leona can 1v1 you pretty much showed why your argument is based on something faulty, supports dont take kills unless its necessary or its by accident, youre a bad support if youre "fed".

tl;dr supports are utility players, if you combine utility with damage you get something ridiculously overpowered
