  • Swain recently wen through another mini-rework with the intent to rebalance him for solo lanes. But does that mean Swain support was left in the dust? No, quite the contrary, Swain support is actually stronger than ever. Join me as we dive into gameplay from some of the strongest Swain supports in the world and find out how they carry games even in Challenger.

    Let's goooo , that video just came up on the right time . I had enough of playing real * supports * ( soraka , nami ... etc ) because if your adc can't fking CS that's it . Then i started playing velkoz and xerath to make my own damage but i die a lot ( wich is my fault ) , But that swain look soooo fit in my situation . Thank you a lot my man , hope you'll shine very very soon . All love and support

    Top-tier puns right there
    Don't really want to nitpick a great video, but Swain's E is called "NeverMOVE" :D. I think the most difficult part of the ability is to hold it just enough to maximise the enemy's ensnared time and not to miss the soul fragment.
    I really hoped for the Imperial mandate mention. It's super strong on support Swain in combination with Rylai's.
    Against heavy AD comps you can ditch the Zhonya's and pick Frozen Heart instead.

    • @BCawk
      @BCawk  Před 2 lety

      I personally feel like going conqueror on support Swain makes you lose a lot of early game power. It can definitely make you more of a threat in teamfights / midgame -- but that's up to your preference.
      I personally go electrocute and liandri's most of my games to get the best of both worlds lol
