Not necessarily. Zero-Farm Support was more viable.

Riot killed that with this change, so now you need farm to do well.

Your way was still only second best until this patch came along. :P


I said I've been saying it, not that it was more viable. =P

Okay, so I'm only lvl 24 and don't have all runes and so on, but I liked the old Soraka with 0 cs very much, is there any possible way to play her still this way or do you have to be an mage in mid dominating to be any help for your team? :P

You can still be a support, but you should farm a bit so you can get some AP.

In my case it only takes a little farm to get the gold I need (2-3 minions every other minion wave).

This is with 3 avarice quints, greed, and a GP/10 item.

EDIT: Avarice quints are dirt cheap (515 IP each) and every champion can benefit from them, so getting them is worth it.

Zero farm support is still the best for your team.
Just take the lasthits you KNOW your partner will miss. It's not easy, but that's what a good support should do.

People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m ****ing ******ed but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache” and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding." - Guuse

Yes this.

If you see your teammate is low health of being super passive don't be afraid to go in and take some CS for yourself.
