He may be a good support, but it gives away his true powers in a teamfights, to be in the middle for as long as possible. With playing him support, he won't be able to gain that much gold to purchase the right items for that, such as tanky items. Yes, he does have the utility to give your ADC kills early on, but there will be instances that either his W or R will snag the kill, giving away the free gold to your ADC.

Not saying he's not able as support, but he shines brighter at top or junge, so that he can do his role properly.
