When i play venomancer i will mostly go solo mid, he is not a very effecient carry but can work as a second position hero where he builds up items such as mek/pipe/aghanim/Necro books/scythe of vyse.
His scaling kind of lands to be a good carry, he's not locked as a support and has been run as 2nd and 3rd position before.
But he's just such a good support that it's quite crazy, his slow is amazing and isn't dispelled by even black king bar and his ulti deals crazy damage if he gets it to level 2. And his plague wards are just one of the best tools he has for both farming, pushing, defending, scouting and so on.
Anything goes in pubs though, but venomancer + a mid-game carry = easy kills in lane.
Veno+juggernaut is a magical combo for example.
I've done silly stuff myself though, like carry lich/crystal maiden and support riki.
I've never lost mid with venomancer, for example. His ability to mid is extremely good and he's one of the stronger 1v1 heroes and will quite easily get a kill early on if the enemy overtextends just slightly.
Veno mid is the same idea as lich or enigma mid. They're such strong laners that they'll win the lane and get early items that can contribute to a mid-game strategy.
Nothing can take away the role of #1 aggressive support from veno though, him and CM are the two best supports for early agression.
