^^ Nope still looks boring


I didn't say YOU would enjoy it :P I just wanted to show that it can be enjoyed.

Playing a good game as a support or tank is quite satisfying, because you take the carry's usefulness to the next level. not always exciting, but satisfying.

Excitement=satisfying for me.

I'd rather have an exciting game and lose opposed to a boring game and win.

supporting isn't as important in solo-quee as ANY other role on a team. And that's just it..

In duo/premade. Support get's to shine and actually have an amount of skill to be useful. But in solo-quee setting yourself in danger from using ur CC for making a chance ur ad-carry MIGHT abuse is just not worth it. That means, that in the first 10-15 minutes of each game the support is a heal/ward/ping-bot. Meaning u won't have that much affect on the game for 4th of the duration of each game.

When laning phase is over. Ur job varies very much. But often it just comes down to protecting your carry and warding.

A support doesn't have the same skill-cap in solo-quee as in premades. The potential just isn't there... And if u try abuse ur own potential, u might die from a gank.

TL:DR support is a no-brain job in solo-q.

I love carrying a game as a support more so than I do playing AP or AD. Because exactly what you just said, if I out support their support and my bottom lane won then I did all that I could to win the game =).

Pölse: it's all about communication! You tell your lanemate how you prefer to play your support and say that you wish their gameplay matches! If they disagree they can tell you! If not they will adhere. Always communication as support! Call ss for other lanes, call timers on dragon, baron and buffs, make calls on plays. A good support can be one hell of a playmaker!

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.
