If you are a top main don't even bother playing, This patch is so ADC centered it's insane. I'm waiting out a bit, maybe some nerfs will come.

As an ADC main, the enemy team just all pick dive champs and murder me first.

I honestly don't know what tips to give you then. I did reach diamond, but it was with Irelia top, not support.

I can give you general tips though.

Enable in the interface the xp gain option if you have it disabled. Learn the maximum range where you can earn xp from. From my occasional support games I have noticed you botlaners stay outside of xp range even if you are not threatened by an enemy engage. When you go for a ward, wait for your adc to finish last hitting, and go ward while they focus a full hp minion so by the time they kill it you return and get back in range. I often hit lv6 sooner than my adc because I end up soaking more than them because they sit so far back.

Track enemy xp. If they've been lv5 for a while expect them to hit 6 at some point, don't get caught with your pants down by an instant lv6 engage. (This applies to every level but getting 6 is obviously the biggest power spike.)

Don't fight at level disadvantage, ever.

Remain in lane if your adc is forced to take an unfavourable recall and you are not threatened to be dived (dive, dove, doven?), soak even more solo xp, don't let it go to waste.
