Your first build works perfectly for me!

The guide itself is pretty well structured, easy to read and understand, covers lots of useful information and is just good :)

Thank you for bringing this guide to Mobafire!

Great job overall! You managed to pack a library's amount of information into a well laid-out page! (An uber long one, but w/e haha XD) In any case, it's a great way to learn Ali and learn a few extra things along the way, like warding.

Support is how I believe alistar should be played. 2 non cleansable CCs? Yes please. I build frozen heart and soul shroud on him, and I also max Q before W (more teamfight damage). Please try these out, and consider revising. Either way, Very good job!


My opinion on how to play Riven will be out soon.

theMysterieZ: Thank you. :)

Panda Magi: Thanks, credit goes to Summoner for the warding pic.

0biereck: Sounds like a solid strategy. Glad it's been working out well for you. :)

501g Gehacktes: You're very welcome. Alistar makes quite a fantastic support in the right matchups.

preller: His CC combo is pretty useful, isn't it? Warding bot brushes is a pretty good idea if you're up against a support that camps there, like Blitzcrank or Leona (sometimes Taric as well). Keep in mind you can use Clairvoyance to spot targets if you took it.

MaceToDaFace: Great score, glad you're doing well in ranked games!

War Killer MAx: You're welcome. =P

iGod LoL: Thank you, but I'm afraid I'm not taking review requests at the moment. I simply don't have the time and I'm behind on reviews as it is.

Afish123: Thanks, I appreciate the positive feedback. I've been working hard lately to make my guides more concise with less useless or redundant information. I'll likely be overhauling the Situational Items section in the near future.

EEG ShuffleZ: Soul Shroud is really not viable in my opinion. It simply doesn't have the usefulness and cost-efficiency of other support items. Shurelya's Reverie gives similar stats, but is much more useful. Frozen Heart is expensive and in my build is a waste of CDR. I find I rarely build it on supports simply because there are a lot of CDR options available. Randuin's Omen is a better option imo.

I've been planning some changes to my build and guide for a while now. One of the things I've been investigating is the merits of maxing Q first in a support role. It might make its way into the core build, but I'll definitely make a mention of it in the skill order section at least. Thanks for the suggestion.


Thanks to JEFFY40HANDS for the sig!

I will read most walls of text if I really want to learn something on LoL, so it wasn't that bad xD

I have had some good games, where my bot lane carry gets fed farm like a boss.

Since this also acts like a tank build, I can use this effectively to help give kills and to initiate fights.. Unbreakable Will <3

+Rep, because I think you deserve it lol, you're a great addition to the Mobafire community.

Very good guide, +1 bud ^^~


On another note:
Yay for the MR/Lvl scaling :D


^^ Check out my Gangplank Guide! ^^
