And no, don't take farm, make plays and use your assist money. Gp10 items are almost always the best support build regardless of who you're playing, they give you utility and decent stats, utility is what support is all about.

If you build AP you're going to be as squishy as an AP while being way way way behind because you don't have nearly as much money as them. Building support items gets you great stats for staying alive while also giving utility.

Think of it this way, you can either have a weak AP build or a great support build.
