No. Don't do it. Don't you dare play MF support in my ranked games.

We all just saw that, but ROX had a very well thought out plan that worked because they're 5 players working together. Solo queue is a completely different animal, and you probably won't get the results you want. Please don't get too crazy with it friends <3

Yeah, best to either scout out or play "safer" off-meta supports, like leblanc or ekko.

Kinda. I'm just more of an "off-meta" person than an "in meta" person. For every 9 people who spam yasuo/zed/syndra in mid-lane, I'm the one enjoying tahm kench/donger/ezreal. Off-meta stuff can be extremely powerful (for instance, in my more recent games I've been playing support spellthieves LB and have done more damage than both adc's in 3 of the 5 games), going in without a sound strategy and gameplan though is heavily not reccomended as unskilled meta will always beat unskilled off-meta (in the case of my LB idea, it was to try and counter the likes of karma/nami by putting them in my adc's kill-range with repeated q/w combos).

Would highly not reccomend it. While the arrow can supply picks, caitlyn not only has a longer range (allowing for more poke) but also has an easier time locking down enemies and getting away from them with traps/e.

interestingly enough I have been experimenting with cait support as well. I just have more fun playing ashe.

in ranked the only off meta support I play is ekko atm.

Ekko's one of the "safer" ones, I'm thinking LB may be another safe one if only because of all the fun options she opens up (namely that it not only gives your mid-laner a potential free counter pick if taken early enough, but also because the sheer amount of damage she can do early game even to melee's is pretty ridiculous). I wouldn't reccommend doing any of this stuff in ranked though as people's egos have a habit of interfering with their judgement, but in normals it's always a good option.

I agree, esp now at end of season, Im already gold+. a nice relaxing game in norms with my random picks/builds is a good time. :)
