Sona and Lulu.
Sona was considered the best Support at the Season Finals, and the slight nerf aint made her that much worse(and that she got nerfed in the first place speaks for itself). Also she fits well in a Kill-Lane aswell as any Lane where the ADC is bad*remembers how Winter told me while playing Sona "i dont think u should play offensive/kill-lane orientated champs 8D*
I used to play Lulu from time to time but i picked her up more active recently, her CC&versitality makes me come 10 times a Game and out of 10 Games i alrdy had like 4 "OMGWTFBBWSPOFIHOQPJGFOIHOÖUI moments", also she she sees more with her eyes closed. Problem with her is there are not many ppl who actually play her right.
I fail to see how so many People agree with Janna.

Though I posted in this thread before, I just wanted to point out Lulu is the best right now.

One more (maybe) odd question..
Which support can also be a jungler?
Searching for a support-jungle champion who
- mainly, can support teamfights not just with gangs but CC,shield, etc.. (so not a babysitter)
- tanky, roaming

Thinking about Alistar fits. He can jungle, support-CC and can be build tanky.
(maybe Maokai also can do this)
Are there any other?

Thanks.. (don't wanna troll! i'am really interested)

edit: I'am not interested in rated playing.
Mainly soloq and fun with my friends.. (as i sad iam a casual player)

a support is a champion that focuses on babysitting the bot lane ADC

a support cannot both jungle and support

if you're referring to a jungler that plays like a support, then Maokai is the prime pick at the current moment.

The jungle meta revolves around control junglers like Skarner, Maokai, Cho'Gath: champs that are not reliant on jungle camps and junglers who can provide massive early presence and transition well.

Maybe i missed but no one says nothing about Zilean in this topic.
As i know he can support as well? Does anyone playing with him?
... or just he is not good enough?

(looks like an interesting champion, never played but i like unique champions a lot!!)

Maokai's a strong pick overall. Great CC great initiate and his ult is the ultimate teamfight tool

Taric. Armor aura, double heal with mana and cooldown on auto attacks. Decent spike damage with an ult that adds damage to nearby allies. Best candidate for aegis ever.

Also best at stoping ganks because his stun travels so quickly and he can use it from a relatively safe distance.

Stun and exhaust work best for reducing damage to the ad carry when used right. Heal doesn't stop the ad carry from dieing to insane damage and silence is too easy to not time appropriately.

Janna is nice but her ult throws off a lot of team fights with champions that rely on allied aoe.

Sona is squishier now. Can't get in front.

Soraka can't deal with too much damage at once, if you are behind she becomes the weakest link on the team.
