The supports didn't get nerfed they got buffed. It's not about the damage it's the utility scaling. You can afford to buy really decent AP items and after 150 you'll start feeling how much more powerful you'll be in subversive ways. By 300 and more you'll feel just how more potent your spells are. Again it's not about pure damage you might as well be the APC if you wanted that. That's not what the support does.
