A recommendation for a good sp?

Asked by Fat_fast on October 2, 2013

Hi, it's me again, thank you guys for answering my previous question. Your contribution inspired me to buy a sp champ, but now I have a problem choosing my fit. Since I have limited budget, both time and IP, I have no other choice but to ask you guys for your extensive experience. I'm still rather indecisive about the sp kit, but anyone that suits an aggressive playstyle, with a good mix of survivability will be nice. I thank you guys in advance!

This was his previous question.

There are several aggressive supports; in fact, I'm pretty sure there's only one passive one (). If you want survivability, then , , (banned), (banned), and are your main options, though (rarely banned) and are very strong at kiting and damage mitigation and have good poke.

To give an overview of each:
- is stronger against an AD-heavy team comp and with an AD-heavy teamcomp. Gets (targetted stun) → (heals target allied champion or minion) → (passively boosts armor, active shatters enemy armor; maxed first)
- is the all-in support. Gets (stun AA-modifier) → (skillshot jump + root) → (armor/MR buff; maxed first)
- is well known for his ability to reposition enemies, and is naturally tanky. Gets (reposition) → (knockup) → , with the skill maxed first being situational.
- is the super-support that Riot never should have made b/c he's got too much utility. His skill order tends to be (passively increases AA damage, active slows and pulls/pushes; maxed first) → (pulls enemies and lets rappel to his target) → (ground-AoE shield that can pull one ally to ), though might be the Lv1 skill depending on elo and region.
- is FREE (no IP needed to get if you . However, a bad is REALLY bad and a good is good. I'm not familiar with him at all, but I'd guess the skill order is (AoE knockup) → (knockback) → (AoE heal).
- is considered one of the stronger supports right now. Her skill order tends to be situational, but her skills are (linear knockup), (passive speed boost, active slow), and (shield that boosts AD).
- is also strong due to her immense poking potential and ability to shut down the enemy mage or support. Her skill order tends to be (linear slow; maxed first) → (AP+MS boost on ally, silence+slow on enemy) → (shield that places 's passive on allied players or damages and reveals enemies).

Out of all of these, the easiest to play is most likely or .

support is very aggressive and has a guaranteed stun with . Additionally, she has an insane auto attack range allowing her to poke very well. + makes for a great initiation when setting up a bot lane gank or starting a team fight.

has one of the strongest if not the strongest single-target cc ability with . Your primary goal in most fights is to use on the person who deals the most damage on the enemy side. Similar to he can set up ganks and initiate on to the enemy team with a + or a + + .
