[5] people party: which could be the choice?

[quote=EEasley]Hi there! I'm a new player (just 2-3 weeks) and I have 4 frieds who are playing with me, so we're setting up a sort of full party, deciding which hero any of us should play, considering our own playstyle, of course. 3 of us are aggressive players. 1 would play a tank. 1 (me) still doesn't know what he'll play. Yesterday I played as Twitch a normal game (I'm lvl 13 at this point so far, so still low, with no runes.) and I ended up 23/4/6. Though, I don't think being a carry it's my play style and I got excited when Iplayed a support character like Sona or Janna. Because of that I was asking if in a ranked game (so later on, where this game starts to be serious) a "support choice" (0/0/X playstyle) could be still viable or is just pointless and is better go and kick some ass around.. =) At this stage what do you think about making a good party? for example, 1 support, 1 tank, 3 carries. Or 3 carries, 1 tank, 1 jungler. (just an example) and furthermore, which characters could really fullfill the job here? I hope I've explained my thoughts well and I say thanks for your answers..[/quote]

[quote=Scrax](Disregarding your summoner levels right now) Aggressive players: AD Carry, Solo Top, AP Tank: Bruiser Jungler You: Try Support, might like it.[/quote]

[quote=EEasley]I see, thanks for the quick reply. May I know your opinion about some specific characters to use? I was thinking (regarding your setup advices): - AD Carry = Kog'Maw? - Solo Top = Don't really know. Morgana? - AP = Brand/Malzahar? - Tank/Jungler = Warwick? - Support = Still deciding which is better.. =/[/quote]

[quote=Virtus]Morgana would do fine solo top but in terms of the entire team comp you would have only 1 main physical damage dealer (WW mostly magic damage with his Q's and bloodrazors). It would be better to have a bruiser jungler and bruiser top (udyr, singed, rumble, irelia, riven, skarner, sion, nasus, etc.). Then you could have either a tanky jungler or a bruiser jungler, which would give you enough tankiness on your team combined with the raw damage of AP and AD carries. For example: - AD Carry = Kog'Maw - Solo Top = Irelia - AP = Brandzahar - Tank/Jungler = Warwick - Support = Sona WW+Sona is good initiates, Brand can take advantage of Sona ult for his AoE damage, Irelia can clean up, Kog'Maw can stay far away and use W range to pump out the damage. Edit: Take some time playing some supports with a friend who AD carries to test out the feeling of being a support. It can be very fun. You have plenty of time to get to ranked, most likely.[/quote]

[quote=Scrax]AD Carry: Cait, Kog, MF Solo Top: Irelia, Lee Sin, Talon, Udyr, GP AP: Brand, Morgana, Anivia Jungler: Lee Sin, Trundle, GP, Nocturne Support: Sona, Taric, Soraka (who can also be AP)[/quote]

[quote=EEasley]Standing on what I see, Sona is better than Janna or any another support char?[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]Sona, Janna and Alistar are all really good and my personal favorite supports. All three of them play somewhat differently. I think Taric and Soraka are still good too, but I haven't played them since their reworks. Alistar is best played as an 'aggressive' support. In lane if you camp in the bushes you can more or less guarantee a kill or a wasted flash with good co-ordination using his Q and W (or if not, at least zone them from farming). His E isn't the best heal ever but it will keep you both sustained. Late game (or when using his ult) Alistar also makes a decent tank. Flash + Q makes for a good initiate on an unprepared enemy, and you can then headbutt a carry back into your team. Be careful when using headbutt because it's possible to screw over your team by losing a kill or getting an ally killed if used wrongly. Something important to note is that Alistar is actually free if you subscribe to Riot's Youtube channel, so there's that if you don't want to waste your IP. Janna is more of a 'disruption' support, her lane is a little weaker than the others thanks to not having a heal, but she excels in teamfights where she can use her Q and R to disrupt enemies and save allies and her W to slow a fleeing carry. Goes without saying her +50 AD shield is very useful too. Her ult can be game-changing, but is also fairly difficult to use correctly and can potentially either win or lose you the fight depending on how it's used. Sona is basically pure support. She just can stand at the back and enhance the team just by standing there pressing buttons. Her buffs are all good (speed buff is massively underrated) and her heal is fairly solid (although I still mad that it got nerfed :c). Her ult is also great to disrupt the other team in a fight or save allies. Sona is my best support and probably the easiest support to play. ^ All IMO[/quote]

[quote=Pølsemanden]I don't like u advising him on irelia because he's lvl 13.. so that probably means a 2v1 lane which is gonna be constantly auto-attacking.. so u want someone who can push heavily. Malzahar top is always a good idea for low-elo.. And then sending a talon mid and laugh your ass of as newbies getting rolled by a champion which they usually don't see going mid :)[/quote]

[quote=caucheka]except for ww you can't really do much jungling without runes. so until level 20 it'll be pretty much 2v2 top.[/quote]

[quote=Keley]Isn´t ww considered to be one of the few jungler you can do without runes?[/quote]
