[quote=Slappiz]Janna still going strong, up for promotion games now in gold III. Janna Stats Won: 36 Lost: 12 Win ratio: 75% Battle of the wards! Always buy plenty of [[vision ward]]s and remove the enemy teams wards. Ward at key points and always try to get full visual control of their jungle. Vision wins games and noobs becomes better players with vision, if you want to win as support U'll just have to ward, [[vision ward]] > items.[/quote]

[quote=Slappiz]Masteries: 1/4/25 Page Name: S2 Platinum Janna! http://www.lolking.net/summoner/eune/329472#masteries Page name Runes: 15,3 armor - 4gp/10 and magic resist/lvl glyphs Page Name: Basic Support (Multi) http://www.lolking.net/summoner/eune/329472#runes A few tips: [list] [*] Wards: always consider the warding as a battle between you and your enemy teams support. [[Vision ward]]s is the key to take control of the bot lane. When you got vision control you got lane control and that is in 80% of the games I play, enough to win the lane. [*] Shift and Alt button, smart casting. Always use smart casting with your shield in laning phase. Fast shields on our ADC when enemy bot lane tries to poke is essential to win. A healthy ADC with vision will allow you to push and take tower early. [*] Vision control also put your team in favor for the dragon, more gold means more wards for you and more dmg items for your team. [*] As soon as you have taken the bot tower, or mid tower. Always try to fill their jungle with pink wards. Pink wards are OP and if you can control their jungle with full vision you will have a easy time ganking and pushing. I always do this. Bad players become better players when they got perfect vision. And it also reduce the chans that your team will throw the game. [*] If you lose vision and map control always try to get a [[oracle's elixir]] asap, clear your jungle from wards and put wards in there asap. [*] In team fights, a great tip for use of your ulti is the always check your teammates HP, if someone get low, pop your ulti and heal them up. This is especially useful when fighting under enemy towers. Jannas ultimate takes a lot of practice to master and you need to do a lot of trial and errors before you get the hang of it. This is the best ultimate in the game and when you master it your team will be incredibly strong in team fights. [*] Smart cast [[howling gale]] and double press Q for fast knock ups (this is essential). I rarely charge it up unless we are fighting at dragon or nashor or if I know where my enemies will come from, due to vision from wards etc. [/list] I'll be happy to answer questions if you got some, hard to give some in depth tips without any preparation like in guides etc. ^^[/quote]

[quote=Slappiz][quote=Wayne3100] Why would you ever take [[Expanded Mind]] over something like [[Hardiness]] in Defense tree? [/quote] Because I rather have 180 mana end game instead of 5 armor early game.. I rarely die any way and I got enough armor from runes to not die from early poke dmg. 5 armor = 100g 180 mana = 360g (Edit: I also usually find myself oom at the end of long team fights if we are pushing so 1 extra spell can be the difference between winning or losing the fight.) But I do have a situational build for more tanky laning phase. But I always pick [[Barrier]] instead of [[Exhaust]] if I'm doing that, but that really don't happen often, just If I wan't to have a kill lane against [[Thresh]] or [[Blitzcrank]] .[/quote]
