It also seems like the gold-boosting items, such as Kage’s Lucky Pick, build into them, giving these supports the freedom to contribute even more in a team fight through a greater variety of ways.

Already🦩 I’ve seen champions in roles that they would just never have been considered for in the past, though some might even be overpowered now. Riot has stated that it wants to get more feedback than what would be offered in the Public Beta Environment. So hopefully any inconsistencies will be brought to light and lead into a much better season of competitive play.
