A support, in my eyes, is a champion that can not only help the team in a team fight but also dish out damage to help the ADC farm. It doesn't mean that the champion MUST defend the ADC at all times NOR give EVERY kill to that ADC, but generally do it.

Whenever I play Kayle bot lane and I'm not being the ADC, I usually pick up a kill or two simply because the ADC wasn't close enough to get said kill. Sure, I always try to keep the ADC alive but we don't live in a ideal world where things go as said.

So who is to say that Elise isn't a good support? She does exactly what I believe a support SHOULD do: Help the ADC get kills and dish damage out in team fights. I hate seeing the standard Taric bot lane or Alistar because I know later all they will do is walk into a team fight and barely get hit because people who are smart enough don't even focus their tankiness.
