Introduction
My name is KaalSchneid, a North American League player, Unranked.
This guide is for a fun, informative, and useful path to my all time favorite support

![]() ![]() |
You will be supporting. Naturally, ![]() If your ADC asks for something different, try to be flexible. Standard on most champions, for obvious reasons. It's too useful to pass up, unless you are far more comfortable running without it. Even then, consider it. If anyone tells you not to take ![]() |

For new players, I highly recommend checking out the League of Legends wikia page on Runes Here!
You can only have a certain number of Runes, and you'll want as many tier 3 runes as possible. Save up IP for them until Level 20.

Typically, I don't love Thunderlord's. Ever since 6.5, it's gotten a nerf too many people didn't realize, because it was the best for so long. But Bard gets a Q, an Auto Attack, and a Meep. 3 hits, a Thunderlord's and his damage has maxed until Thunderlord's resets. Kill Stealing is minor, but you can justify Deathfire Touch (by taking Sorcery, Expose Weakness, Natural Talent, Oppressor, Piercing Thoughts and Deathfire Touch).
Finally, I recommend 6 in Ferocity and Resolve to benefit from Expose Weakness and Explorer, but I also understand dedicating to one tree for increased benefits based on play style and Need. Use your best judgement, or trust mine, either way, have fun!
This guide is not perfect, this guide is not strict, and this guide is supposed to be for a fun Bardic Experience, while remaining serious and flexible. If I don't achieve that, then it should be revised, and I welcome comments and questions of a helpful nature to me and readers.
Now, then, get out there and ward, chime, ult, stun, and have fun. Play well, play on.
