There's 3 types of supports in my eyes.

Kill supports - Blitz, Alistar, Nautilus, Leona
Sustain supports - Alistar, Soraka, Sona
Aggressive supports - Janna, Sona, Nunu, others

They excel at their category. :P

There's also a bit of grey area between these categories where people like Taric and Lulu fit.

I'm not a support expert but, that's what I got. :P
i Agree totally with this

Bishu played Nidalee support at 2,7k elo.

For Nidalee, you can classify her depending on what she maxes first:

Sustain: Max E first
Kill Lane: Max Q first

Because if you are good at hitting Q's and have a Graves in your lane, OMG WTF!!!

nidalee doesn't fit with graves at all and she's not a kill-laner.

And its amazing how much things change... Some of my opinions are the same, but i think I would have to change a few of them.

Indeed so much has changed. I removed my Ez guide a while ago, because whenever I decide to edit it I'll have to pretty much rewrite the whole thing.

Thank you Miss Maw, CasterMaster and Arcana3 for the sweet sigs. I'd definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a nice sig.

Explain to me why is Nidalee any good as a support.

Don't get me wrong, I've played her as a "support", but I actually just started with that idea but went full ap and carried the game. Enemies were idiots, that's why I carried.


Yes, Nida has a heal with AS boost and those traps. Great. She has no ability to peel whatsoever, she has nearly no teamfight presence if you go full support (one heal, one jav, if you go in as cougar you probably die), her traps don't replace wards so they're sort of a different type of coverage.

All Nida "supports" I see just go full ap after (sometimes) buying 2-3 wards.

(note: I do not count spamming "here mousy mousy mousy" as a support ability)
