I don't agree with the concept that a support getting the kill is a bad thing. It also depends on the support. As a Janna main, (Janna needs zerooo items) you're more inclined to feel supports should get zero kills since they dont need gold.

Yet Soraka or Taric, these are supports that can use gear and thusly, it doesn't matter if they get the kills.

(Personally, I don't think it matter if Janna gets the kills either.)

Stoopid Sona took a double kill early game from me.

I'm playing Miss Fortune she's rolling Sona vs Graves and Alistar we literally raped them, they died within a few seconds. And she manages to take both first AND second blood.
At times like that, it is a killsteal - Doesn't matter if normal or ranked, a support shouldn't take the 2 first kills from an AD-Carry!

The thing is, I think it's BETTER if the carry gets the kill. That's why in TOP play it's considered "bad" (at least I think so) in the sense that it's not optimal.
Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!

Can be, sure.

I'm a big fan of just kill target ASAP, and I think doing that is always better no matter who does it.

I mean yeah, if there's any doubt he'll get away, everybody should throw everything on him, but in some cases the kill is pretty secure, and Soraka doesn't need to throw an Infuse on him.

Kill steals are usually qq'd about when the kill was obviously secure, and someone "stole" the kill. Though, crying about killsteals is usually pretty noob no matter what.

I suppose my viewpoint is more from the, "Kill them ASAP, maximize our field advantage while they are dead" viewpoint. I want him dead sooner so we can break this tower faster and get these minions safely, base, and come back with gear earlier.

It sounds trivial, shaving a second off of the kill, and maybe that second is worth putting the gold into the carry's pocket. *Shrug*

Playstyles ^___^

Kill people as fast as possible, you never know what might happen if you don't

If your support just so happens to take the kill, it just means more gold for map awareness and whatnot

Besides you'll still get a lot of gold for it and the most important thing is your target is now dead and missing out on exp/gold.
