Janna - The Storm's Fury

spaaaaaaace
There are those sorcerers who give themselves over to the primal powers of nature, forgoing the learned practice of magic. Such a sorceress is Janna, who first learned magic as an orphan growing up admist the chaos that is the city-state of Zaun. Janna eked out what living she could on the streets. Life was tough and dangerous for the beatiful young girl, and she survived by her wits, and by stealing when wits weren't enough. The rampant magic that characterizes Zaun was the first and most alluring tool which Janna realized could both protect and elevate her. Janna discovered that she had an affinity for a particular type of magic - the elemental magic of air. She mastered her studies of air magic in matter of months, almost as if she was born of it. Janna went from a street vagrant to an avatar of the air virtually overnight, stunning and surpassing those who taught her. Such a rapid ascension also changed her physical appearance, giving her and otherworldly look.

Seeking to right the injustice in the world (particularly the insanity that has become the city of Zaun), Janna has brought her talents to the League. She is a voice for the regulation of magical experimentation and a supporter of the development of techmaturgy, making her an indirect ally of the city-state of Piltover and the amazing techmaturgical minds that live there. Janna is also a new favorite of the League's many fans. She is often the center of attention at functions, fan appreciation days, and other celebratory vents. There is something untouchable about Janna, homever, and her affections can chane as quickly as the wind.

— Do not be captivated by Janna's beauty. Like the wind, she is one gust away from a terrible destruction.

~ Tips & Tricks

spaaaaaaace
spaaaaaaace

• Flash + Monsoon, Flash into the middle of the fight and Use Moonson so you can divide them team it works well when they carry is in front of the fight, or if they carry is going to facecheck a brush you can flash behind him and Monsoon
• You can use Howling Gale and Monsoon to stop ultimates like Absolute Zero and Crowstorm
• Using Monsoon While you are pushing a turret is not a bad idea, it regens the health of your team and let you push more, or you can use it after baron if someone got low health.
• Eye Of The Storm Can be used on your tank so he can facecheck a brush safely.
• Use Howling Gale to check brushes.
• If you are being chased by only one champion, use Zephyr and slow him. But if 2 or more are chasing you, you should keep the movement speed buff and try to Howling Gale Them.

~ Your Job as a Support - Gameplay

spaaaaaaace
spaaaaaaace

Babysitter, yes you are a babysitter. You take care of a little AD carry at Bot lane, support him, follow him, take care of him, die you first after letting him die and lose his kill streak. You must support your team Obviously, you are a SUPPORT, they are more important than you, always back up them. You can't farm, you can't even see the minions when they are low health. Let all the cs to your carries but take it if there is no one to take, better you than the minions or the tower.
Never be alone, always follow someone, always support someone. You are not a lonely wolf. So don't go alone stick to your teammates. Not take kills if your carries can take them easily, but if you are not sure always land a good Howling Gale or Zephyr.

Ward, ward everywhere. Call mias, and more wards, counter ward and more wards. Map awareness is so important in this, if you see some danger while you are babysitting your AD carry ping to your teammates on the other lanes, see where is the enemy jungler going and ping!, and more wards.

Important note: Ward is not only your job. Ask your team with education to get some wards.

If your AD carry is overextending and not last hitting, tell him to do it. Because you don't want a gank from the other team don't you?.

Team Fights start, Eye Of The Storm goes on your AD carry, Try to CC them with Howling Gale and slow them from running with Zephyr, land in the middle of the fight and use Monsoon so you can heal your team and divide your opponents while your team still stick together, use the passive from your items, GIVE ALL YOU HAVE!

If you follow my instructions you should now have the Baron buff and be pushing the nexus ... Ooh, VICTORY! You just won the game, ~Congratulations.

(Did you not win?, Read this again and try harder again!)

~ Ranked Play

spaaaaaaace
spaaaaaaace
So you love Janna as much as I'm?, Want to go to ranked with her? You might notice that being Support you can't carry a game, it's a hard decision to make. I do not recommend going into ranked with Janna at least you are DuoQ with the AD carry, a good AD carry wins a game a bad one drags you to Elo Hell. You can't really change the game playing a support and at low elo the other team might not have one. Be sure what you are doing before you do it!

Important things about ranked: Counter item, Counter ward and use a use a lot of wards. DO NOT THROW THE GAME.

~ AP Janna Play

spaaaaaaace
spaaaaaaace
AP Janna is a build to have fun with at normals or custom, please DO NOT JOIN A RANKED AND PLAY AP JANNA.

As AP Janna you want to go mid, You only have two nukes Howling Gale and Zephyr Predict where is your opponent going and Land your Howling Gale try to never miss even one.
