When people think support, they think 0CS, and even players who say she plays a good/viable support also switch to boosting her AP mid/late game.

You need AP, lots of it. There's no question about it. And with that, comes farming or a serious amount of gold generation somehow.

Not to mention when people think Support, they think of items like Shurelyas or Soul Shroud - which are kinda nice, but they don't boost her AP, which she will ultimately need when you get to a point in the game where your attacks do little more than mosquito bite your enemies.

It's like trying to play Karma support without ANY AP late game... it's just not going to work. But then again, its' different. She has at least some kind of usefulness with her Mantra'd abilities, but she does so much better when they are boosted with AP.
