Why to play as a Supporter?

A Supporter has got three major Jobs
  • to help the AD Carry to dominate the lane and to farm well (best Lane Support is Soraka
  • to heal or Stunn/Slow/Debuff (CCs) the Enimy Team (the best Late Supporters are Sona and Janna
  • Last but not least one of the most important jobs is Warding
Back to Top

Items

Supporter Builds are very similar:
Watch the Builds up top: After building Janna, all my Builds ends with an Aegis of the Legion because after Aegis of the Legion are the same to build.

The Last two items Zeke's Harbinger and Will of the Ancients are no core items just buy what u need to buy: this can be more Resistendes or Hitpoints, it also can be an other Aura or anything else...


BUT LEAVE ONE SLOT FOR WARDS AND PERMANENTLY BUY ORAKLE's ELEXIERS

Back to Top

Summoner Spells

Supporters All get the same summinor spells Clairvoyance and Flash

To explain that is not very difficult: One CV ( Clairvoyance] is needed and who is the guy who usulally takes it? right you are!

______________________________________________________________________________________________

Tipp

tell youre teammates to "v"-Ping (the green one) if they need a cv

______________________________________________________________________________________________

And Flash is just an amazing escaping-tool and you will see u really will need it

Farming

DON´T FARM

Wich Suppoter shell i pick?

Every kind of AD carry needs an other kind of support
A Carry like Caitlyn or Urgot (these carrys are dominating their lane and got an amazing zoning spell) requires a Janna, her Eye of the Storm is more then a B. F. Sword, if it´s Rank 5!!!

A Late Game Carry like Tristana or Ashe needs a skilled Soraka for being strong on it´s lane

A Carry who is able to dominate it´s lane buy itself like Miss Fortune should be supported by Sona with her Passive Power Chord + Hymn of Valor is able to passively support your lane mate, with these 8 AD+AP lasthitting is much more easy.

A Squishy Carry like Twisted Fate or Kog'Maw needs an Tanky support with a strong heal: The Gay äh.. Gem Knight Taric

A Carry without a strong CC like Ezreal needs the master of stunnes Alistar

TIPP


Alistar will work good with Urgot, too: There is a combo:

Hyper-Kinetic Position Reverse (hate this name) into Tower, when the target espcapes Headbutt back in the tower and Pulverize immediately even while you´re flying because of Headbutt (this needs a bit of training but you will get it in your 3th or 4th game)
This is an early insta kill because of 5-6 Twoershots á 200 dmg some of urgots Acid Hunter and the combo by itself wich will be about 2000-2500 dmg

Thank you for this Tipp Rawrables

Laneing

Laneing (or early) takes about 15 minutes and is the first part of a league of legends game it ends when:
  • all guys have their Core Build. (in your case Boots Philosopher's Stone and Heart of Gold)
  • or the first tower has been pushed

    While Laneing your Job sounds pretty easy but it is the time of gameplay you have to consetrate most.

    Jobs while Laneing as Sustaynment Support

    • Heal your lanemate
    • Stay behind your AD Carry
    • Tank DMG your Carry would take
    • DO NOT DIE

      Jobs as Non-Sustaynment Support

      • Harras the enimy´s AD Carry
      • Play Defencive
      • Smalltalk with your lanemate (ONLY IF YOU ARE IN TS OR SKYPE) and wait untill midgame
