League of Legends (LoL) Question: Which heroes to buy first to main supp?

Posted in Champions 1,926

    Which heroes to buy first to main supp?

    So I am leveling my first account and currently own Janna, Thresh, Zilean, Annie, Ashe, and Galio. Was wondering who I should grab next with my 3300 IP Sona, Morgana, Soraka, Blitz, or someone else?

    I am at lvl 26 and have S+ all my supp heroes, Janna is by far the most fun and then Thresh.

    Id say either Sona or Morgana.

    Sona has literally the perfect kit, with good poke, a really good heal, a bit of movement speed, and a stun within her ultimate. She's not too difficult, and she is one of the most fun champions that i have ever played. She is the first and only champ i have gotten to mastery level 7, and is by far my most played in the game. Sona can also be built so many different ways, going either the AP route
    (shameless plug heres my build: https://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/ap-sona-support-for-when-you-need-to-carry-your-adc-wip-513889) or a normal support ardent censer route.

    Morgana is also a very good champ to learn, due to her q giving such a long root, allowing for your adc to do lots of damage really quickly. Morgana also has one of the best ultimates in the game in my opinion, for during teamfights, she can pop her ult, and if people are not paying attention, she can stun everyone, allowing for big damage all around. She is also a multipurpose champion, being a very viable mid laner also.
    (Again shameless plug heres my morg mid build:

    Anyways, theres my opinion on who you should buy next, heres my mastery on the champs i was talking about if you wanna get an idea on how much ive played them.

    In any role it's important to widen your array of kit, that way you can find favourable match ups in any situation. Soraka has similar weaknesses to Janna, and likewise for Thresh and Blitzcrank. It's great to eventually get all of them but play around with champs that have different styles. I would recommend Leona, Morgana, Taric and Zyra as examples. Leona can "all-in" champs like Janna and Soraka, Morgana can pin down and punish Thresh or Blitzcrank, Taric can use his kit to protect his carry while he uses CC on the enemy carry and Zyra's aggressive laning can poke down shorter ranged champs to win the laning phase.

    Also bear in mind that different carries work well with different types of support. Caitlyn has good siege and laning poke so a defensive champion like Alistar works well with her. Miss Fortune's ultimate is perfect with Leona's CC. Immobile champions like Jhin and Ashe benefit from move-speed boosts and peel like that fromm Karma or Janna.

    Look at the gaps in your kit and buy a champ that adds something you don't have, you've played your champs a fair while now so you have a good idea of their strengths and weaknesses.

    Blitz is a great place to start. Once you start nailing your grabs its so much fun harassing the enemy team and since you have played Thresh it will be easier for you to land those grabs. I personally don't prefer the squishy AP supports, excluding Morgana (she's like a female blitz down on the bottom lane).

    I'd say, Blitz, then Morgana or Nami. And if you want a more

    Thresh is a good starter, he's a great support once played for a while.

    Sona, Morgana, and and Soraka are three of my favorite supports. I also love Lulu. From the supports you like I'd recommend Soraka and Blitzcrank, like orrvaa said, Blitz is kind of like Thresh.
    Good luck!

    Hello fellow support player :D,

    If you want supports that close to the one you have you should buy Soraka, like Janna based on making your team healthier, but she is more easily to die as she lose hp for healing, so positioning will be the main thing to work on her.

    Blitz is a good support too,workes like Tresh but easier to learn .

    Other support you should try for gaining support that can be better for some situations are, Leona she is melee but have a good engages, easy to learn, you may try Sona as she more poking support, and i like my main Taric so i must suggest him, but only if he for your play style, he is more tanky support then the ones you presented.

    If you have any more questions about the role it self feel free to ask, BTW support is the hardest roles to climb with in ranked games, so keep in mind.

    If you love being annoying, I'd suggest soraka and blitz, Soraka's ult can get super annoying especially Since you could be thrashing on your enemy top laner and then BAM Soraka ults him while he's on 20 health, Feels like divine intervention there, As for blitz, Who doesn't like an instant pull followed by a knock up? Plus you can spam his laugh to annoy the enemy into Forfeighting.
