@0.50 - a
@2.43 - 10 minutes into the game, you're level 4 with no gp10 and you're wasting gold on
@3.01 - you're running around with 10 wards? That's 750 gold. You also don't have any gp10 items funding those wards. Just...what?
@3.40 - as koksei said, staying out of exp range is a pretty dumb idea.
@4.20 - no, not always. Sometimes it's better to alternate, so that one of you is there to protect the tower whilst the other one recalls.
@5.04 - isn't that mid game?
@5.44 - THREE stacks of wards? For real? Assuming you had fifteen to start with, that's 1125 gold.
@9.23 - no, don't you do it...
@9.26 - okay that's enough now
@9.29 - !!!
You also didn't talk about kill, poke and sustain lanes. You definitely ward too much. Warding isn't everything a support has to do - you're placing too much emphasis on it. You seem to be hamstringing yourself, by wasting gold, which in turn hurts your team, because you can't get those aura items as quickly. I carry three wards on me maximum, up until the 30-40 minute mark, then I might start taking five.
But all that said, I do have a lot of respect for you for making this guide. It's always great to see other dedicated support players and to get the chance to listen to their insights :)
I'd guess 1500 since you are 1350 or sth atm but correct me if I am wrong, but if that would be the case "high" elo is kinda misleading
some things:
1. you should already time the wards, so if they put them up at 3:40 just write 6:40
2. you are overdoing it with wards in the beginning 3 wards all in the river near dragon and 2 of them pink wards?.. nu
3. The tip "stay out of EXP range" isn't right at all, you'll miss exp when warding anyway so there's no reason to put you further behind
4. The first items you mention as aura items are aegis, zekes - both rly good no doubt and then soulshroud which is rather mediocre, Frozen Heart or Shureylias would be way better.
5. Biggest mistake you made is that you did not even mention to ward lanebrushes :/
it's so important and necessary/good against some supports, or when you are ahead so you won't get laneganked.
Other than that quite a good video, the music was rather annoying -just muted it, but in general a good video on how to support - just get rid of the tab "high elo" if you aren't 1900+ :P
