I was implying that jungling feels less important because it's currently very farm intensive. That statement is incorrect and any jungle main would tell me so. Perhaps my post was poorly worded, but the message remains the same.

I'm sorry it's like 8 am, and I can't go back to sleep even though I don't have work. T.T very tired and not processing my thoughts clearly.

You don't want to play support? Here, hold my jacket while I carry your ***.

Only downside of playing support, to me, is dumbass marksmen. I can't even call them AD CARRIES because they can't.

Yes, that's the point. I really don't like to play as a support in solo queue, but it's fun when I play with my friends.

Wow. Such truth. Many realization. Wow.

Seriously though. You're right. Walking around as a Thresh and having people run away is funny too. (Especially when everything is on CD)


It's more fun when they flash away from your hook.

Can you please tell that to players in my Elo? They think that I'm their babysitter...

I main support. I think the dynamics of bot lane combat is most fun as a support.

Bot lane offers the most diverse and compelling PvP-environment out of all lanes sans jungle. Also, teamfighting as support is interesting and more challenging.

And we have better tools to avoid those pesky junglers messing with our fair fights.

I will say somwthing again: because ADC is as good, as his support is. Learned that in a har way during last ranked (and firste, ****!). My support wasn't good, and I simple couldn't farm no matter of anthing.

I think an ADC is more reliant on a good support than the other way around by the way. Supports can still be awesome and turn games around when the carry has a bad day or when the lane is lost terribly but carries usually can't. Too item-reliant and they need someone to watch the game for them(or be a perfect multitasker).
