Janna Build Guide by Canoas

+1, voted up :)

I'm new to the support role but wouldn't exhaust be a decent option for summoner spells? It's a great slow effect and reduces the opponent AD carries damage to next to nothing and also slightly reduces effectiveness of hybrids/AP. Isn't this exactly the type of thing a support should have for protecting his/her own carries?

Great guide! two times in normal games at lvl 28, winning ! :))

Gotta admit the guide is good while i can't come along with your item choices as standard build. It works for ad-heavy games, but you can't protect your mage with shield (or only a lil bit).
You ever tried Rylais? I think this is one of the best items for her...Life, stronger Slow, + stronger shield due to AP.
I know it's expensive but I've seen so many guides going for RoA that i REALLY have to say get Rylais before a RoA.
I also get shurelays, but sell Aegis later since it's stats aren't of any greater use then. Also i think if u got 2 or more caster (excluding janna) u HAVE TO get spellvamp. Instead of banshees veil try a randuins for it's high armor and it's cdr. always depending on opponents team consellation...with a lof of cc stay with banshees.

And in any game with a lot of cc get quicksilvers anyway...this will save your teams ***!

Nice guide, seems really viable for normal games and low elo ranked games. I'd add just few suggestions:
As optional items i would not forget stark's fervor if u have an heavy ad team and nobody of them picked it (as 5th item i'd say, just like wota).
Try consider also to get optional boots (ninja tobi or mercury), if not as first for sure when u already got ur kindlegem and randuin (only if u use glyphs of focus).

And btw, as u already said janna is a great roamer. Simply roaming doesn't work well if ur team is bad or doesn't understand why the **** u aren't in ur lane.

Bye :)

+1 This already has alot of ups but. I really liked how you explained things.

Hi Der Cricri here :3! well I just do this build and work very well

Here is my last game with her
I guess Banshee's Veil is THE item for her

I test Rabadon's Deathcap cuz I was quite rich in this game and works very well :)

P/d: Do you try Rylai's? I guess gonna work good with her W :3

Der Cricri (in game name add If you want)

Good luck ;3

You would be surprised on how much support champions can generate wins at low elo, of course, there is also the truly hopeless teams, lol, but the great thing of support champions is that they can cover up your teammates mistakes by warding, saving them, etc (babysit) and thus they can save the day a lot of times. I am a heavy support champion player as I play Taric, Sona and Soraka most of the time, now I'm planning to get Janna too hence I'm here :), even though I'm hoping she gets on the free champ rotation for next week so I can try her before buying. I am not going to up-vote/down-vote your guide since it requires update (fizz patch), but if you update it I'm going to up-vote definitely for being very informative in many things as well as having one of the best (if not the best) supports build out there.

This Build needs to be updated but its a really great build and helped me alot when i first started as Janna in ranked

Maybe switching to Mercury Treads would be awesome.

Oh, +1, of course.
