  • Welcome to A Terrible Guide to League of Legends. A comedy series inspired by JoCat's A Crap Guide to D&D where I give you a guide to various aspects of the hit MOBA League of Legends. Today's guide is about the role of support and how it drains you of all of your wanting to play the game until you stop being a support and become the carry!

    support gets a lot more fun when you make it about fucking over the enemy instead of helping your team; i didnt silence to leona to save my adc, i did it to fuck over her engage. i didnt heal an ally to save them from pyke ult, i did it to laugh at the pyke failing his ult

    I just made a comment on a different website about this:
    league has 4 different type of supports now:
    The backline support that just heals and shields
    The front line support that engages and initiates
    The mage support that is basically just a regular mage but has some support skills
    And there's just "so long as their dead I'm helping" support

    We have to mention the worst part of being a support... Control wards.
    Supports sink so much money into these without even understanding why they're doing it. 1 competently placed control ward is both generating gold through the capture of enemy wards, and a safe vision zone for your team and against enemy team.
    Spamming control wards on the other hand, typically when you ward tribush, it gets cleared, you place your second one, 2 minutes later it also gets cleared cuz you're under pressure. Good job you've lost 150g on nothing, half a kill or an entire wave worth of gold poofed out of existence and you wonder why you're sitting on kindlegem at min 18.
    Work less, work smarter, save your control wards and stop wasting your gold.

    And then you get that one perfect game where the enemy team can't kill you and you wade through them, like the terminator stalking the backline. Hooks-a-flyin', crowds being controlled. You walk forward in lane and watch as 5 full grown adults back up in terror.

      Also in order for adcs to deal damage most of them have to be in medium range, close enough for assassins and some fighters to dash at them. If there is no team stopping these assaults adcs have little they can do about that.

I don't start the game with this mentality. I start the game playing a peeling/catcher support with no intent to steal kills.

    Thing I hate the most is when my team is constantly getting itself into fights, over and over, and while they are dead they'll ponder over something to complain about and see that the map has no vision, because instead of placing wards I tried to help in the fight and died. Had I instead ignored the fight and placed the wards, I would then be accused of trolling for not helping teamfight.

    here is my advice if you want to play support:
    get a fk good duo partner, someone who fits you, a real friend, and most important: someone you don't need to talk a lot with because u think alike
    its so important for your own sanity.
    then every time your adc gets a kill with your help - your (good) partner will thank you for having the back, everytime you throw ur life in line, maybe even dying - the team going "gg nub" on you - your partner will thank you for saving his life and gold advantage. and he will repay you later with winning the match. every time you go in for a risky shit move - ur (good) partner will follow even when nobody else will. and even if u die - your partner will laugh with you "next time bro"
    Never - solo Q as support. Just don't do it.
    ps: if you see this Pap - you will always be my only duo partner! I love you man! - your Leichenfresser

    Or a game when I played Soraka and my Draven couldnt be even a second alone without dying and blaming me.

    One of my favourite things as an ex-support main turned ADC is when my support hovers Senna and I lock in Enchanter Seraphine in response.
    Essentially we've just role swapped. I just make gold through CSing and Senna gets it through support item and souls.
    Really does demonstrate who does and who doesn't have the skillset to play Senna, and worst case scenario I bring my heals, shields, Buffs and CC to my Midlaner and Jungler who are more capable of carrying.

    Support is a pretty broken role and I’m saying this as someone who kinda mains support now. Your impact on the game scales with game knowledge more than your actual mechanical skills. As the support you can play any champion with any items and any runes you want because you don’t have to cs. This means you can look at what both teams win conditions are and play to either stop the enemies win conditions, help your teams win conditions, or do both in really good scenarios. The only role that has more maximum potential to impact the game is jg.

Also youre not the carry having a high kda is basically the opposite of what you want cuz those are kills your adc couldve had.

    Lee Sin support is so fun. Infinite amount of wards so you always have a dash, hits pretty hard pre 6, can insec the enemy adc once Lee hits lvl 6, good at roaming since he's primarly a jungle, omega fun since you're playing Lee Sin, and also it kinda makes you less useless late game since because you're support you're not supposed to be a damage dealer, so the downside of Lee Sin jungle (having a shitty late game where you just exist to insec or smite objectives) becomes less frustrating when you're playing support.

    @askyw69 Před 4 měsíci +1

    This is just a gut feeling, but I feel like part of the reason it feels so hard to impact the game as a supp is the role just doesn't use gold all that well. Because you can't farm, and your passive income can't fully make up for that for balance reasons, getting a kill at any point in the game will mean less for you. You can't use the gold to spike like every other role because even with a kill you are only breaking even with a passively farming laner. You can't even really use the pressure from getting a kill either as you would just be stealing XP and gold from one of your laners by trying.

Leona is a really good splitpusher and duelist AND Leone Jungle plays basically like Leona support, except the crybaby down south is not your responsibility and you actually have some gold to buy better items and maybe even build some bruiser-items that give you enough damage to actually be a threat whilst still having enough durability in your kit to just say "No thank you!" to any attempts to damage you.
