We ping for a fking reason, usually to stop you're dumbass from overextending.

Go fking educate yourself, go read a guide, and not just a how to "yasou like a pro guide" like a fking fundamentals guide.

If you don't know how to do any of these things, don't enter ranked. Period.

  1. Look at yourself, look at the enemy team. If you're playing bot and you don't know who the enemy junger even is, don't play ranked.

  2. If you're trolling an auto-fill let us know so we know we have to hard carry. I.e. I'll play kayle jungle instead of vi, since I can't count on you to land sht.

  3. If you're sup, you're first item is sightstone, period.

  4. IF YOU'RE FKING SUP, YOU'RE FIRST FKING ITEM IS SIGHTSTONE.

  5. Learn how to fking ward. This goes for all players who go through entire season without ever buying a pink/control ward or upgrading their trinket. If you cant do this, stay out of ranked. Seriously, the tri bush and the fking river bush are not the only places you need to ward as the fking sup. If you're ahead ward their jungle, behind, theirs.

  6. Learn to play from behind. If you fking lost your lane, and by that i mean died in lane. Not died in lane only to your laner because the jg never ganked. If you fking died 1v1 to you're laner. its NOT the fking junglers job to babysit you until you're all better and can carry.

  7. Learn to play from behind/ be carried. So your trying to cheese pantheon with ignite top like you did in bronze and it didn't work? FK you. build tank, and stop fking feeding.

  8. Stop picking trash, and worse, stop FIRST picking trash and then whining that you got countered. if you don't want to get countered PICK A FKING META CHAMP, thats why their fking meta, fewer counters.

  9. Oh fking PSA: silver 2 and up is where your cheese champs stop working dumbasses. Stop playing teemo in ranked, stop playing nasus in ranked. Go online, educate yourself, learn whos been patched that currently has the highest chance of winning you the game.

Don't fking ahri support, dont Zil mid. STOP PLAYING KENNEN.

Kennen is for people with perfect CS, a team on voice coms, corporate backing and a fking blowjob specialist on retainer.

Just fking stop.

Pithy reply...blah blah. w.e. Either learn or stay bad.

Is this a troll? I'm confused... can't tell for sure.

You are wrong about a few things. Support sightstone doesn't always have to be FIRST, but it should be fairly early.

Like, if I have 900 gold on first back, I'm getting item 1001 item 1028 item 1004 item 2055. At least that's if on a mage, if tanky/engage I'll go item 2049 item 2055 for the extra health. I'll still finish sightstone on next back either way, or earlier if I SECURE first blood on "accident." Ahri and Kennen are super niche picks, but still not top tier in those niches. Zil mid is another niche pick, that isn't really needed since the meta isn't in favor of it. There's still nothing inherently wrong with some of those picks (as opposed to AP Tank Zed support).

SS doesn't have to be your first item as a support. Non-meta champs are perfectly acceptable to play. S2 isn't really that high of an elo, so cheese picks still work s2-g4/5, and your only valid point was to learn how to play from behind.

Support Or Dodge12/2/2016, 10:12:07 PM2 votes

Hmm I was always told if you get behind you can buy sightstone first, if you are ahead finish starting item get a control ward and then buy item 2049 -- I mean why not tell junglers to buy item 2049 too-- saw some pros do it for their team. Also if this is targeted at lower elo players like myself why does Panth take summoner 14 in plat and above? and also builds item 3142 Also just because a champion has fewer counters doesn't make him meta, it's how strong they are in the patch as well. I just feel really bad for you, like have you been deemed as toxic lately-- you sure do seem like it.

Yes, but you don't need to spam that crap after we lost the fight and have to back off. Or, how about we don't use the "Enemy Missing" ping when I tell you I'm out of mana and at half health and yet you still engage only to die? "Use your auto attacks." Okay, I'm playing Ahri with a base 50-ish AD, they have one armor item, I'm doing about 10 an auto, soo do you expect me to tickle them?

I can read all the Riven guides in the world, doesn't mean I'll be any more skilled with her. Experience > Knowledge in a lot of cases. Yes, I know how Ahri works and guides say in a LeBlanc lane I should lose lane hard. Welll, let me tell you I've beaten the majority of them. Hell even Yasuo who should dominate turns into a feeder simply because "oh hey, look, he's under tower and my jungler is near, guess who's getting ganked?"

Gotta start somewhere. Norms can only teach so much and Ranked is the place to hone your skill. How can you tell how good you are if there's no way to show it? That being said, again experience will trump knowledge as you'll start to really lock down on habits and times. In a normal game, nobody's going to try their best to win and ergo you'll be put into a calmer and less focused state. In an environment where you WANT to win, you're going to develop the necessary habits needed to win.

ie. Lots of wars vs Wards in key areas

  1. Look at yourself, look at the enemy team. If you're playing bot and you don't know who the enemy junger even is, don't play ranked.

Why is bot the only one that has to know this? It should be you and everyone else who should know who's on the enemy team and not just the jungler. Mid roams, Top can TP gank and even Bot can gank Mid and Top.

Uhhh, I would honestly go for the Vi jungle because P&C ult, CoC is extremely broken and her shield. Build her full tank or even bruiser and she can easily solo carry. These are just my viewpoints and I'm sure a Vi Main can correct me on that one.

  2. IF YOU'RE FKING SUP, YOU'RE FIRST FKING ITEM IS SIGHTSTONE.

If me and our ADC are hugging the turret, I am not going to build SS first item. If we can get the lane pushed then I'll consider it. While it may be a great item, I'd rather have something that would increase mine and my survivability in lane when the jungler is hard camping. Vision helps so much, it won't do squat when they decide to 4v2 under turret while you're top side stealing the enemy's blue (from red side. For some reason we always get screwed when on red and not blue side)

What would you consider trash? Right now anything that isn't Vayne Rengar LeeSin Yasuo means you're going to lose if you don't pick or ban them. However, in the case of Yasuo I'd rather not have them on my team cause many they feed like there's no tomorrow. Get some decent ones, but the majority either do okay or just get dominated.

Trick2g, Nightblue3, and a fair number of others have played Teemo and Nasus in ranked and they're Diamond+. According to patch notes: Shen got buffs so gives me a better chance of winning right?

-Goes into a game, doesn't have proper runes masteries. Doesn't know how champion works, feeds 0-33. Loses- YOU SAID I COULD WIN!

Don't fking ahri support, dont Zil mid. STOP PLAYING KENNEN.

But...Zilean was designed to be a Mid laner?

Kennen is for people with perfect CS, a team on voice coms, corporate backing and a fking blowjob specialist on retainer.

...that could go for any champion. Kennen is just a more mobile version of Morgana with a better stun. I guarantee that you could faceroll with him and still manage to get a decent Ult-Zhonya's off.

My thoughts on this, but hey, I'm just a skrub.

What does this have to do with silver? Bronzies and some golds have this problem too

I don't know how to play any of the meta picks . Should I still pick'em and probably feed my ass off or take my off meta main champs so I have more chances of winning with something that I know how to play ? Except for this , I agree with most of the things .

i dont understand why not to play nasus?

Beldair12/3/2016, 8:59:55 AM1 votes

  1. Someone sounds Salty.

  2. As an unranked Support Main (unranked for personal reasons), I must disagree. SS does not have to be the first item you get.. I always upgrade my gold item to it's next phase, then get SS, then buy the last gold item upgrade (eye of the watcher, eye of the equinox, etc).

  3. Jungler can also buy SS or go with the ward smite instead. Yes, supports do have it easier but other roles can place wards too.

  4. If I want to play any of those mentioned champs, then I will. Even if I want to roll out the Nasus Support in ranked (quite good as Nasus support if I do say so myself) then I will.

  5. If I'm warding as a support, I will ward wherever the hell I want to. Which usually means: River, Tri-bush, and Dragon are my only concern for that moment. You want their jungle warded, ward it yourself.

  6. Get good son. 3 years and only Silver? I've only been playing since May of 2015. Got Silver 3 my first year. Now, I could possible get to at least Gold IV if I played rank.

And before you say, well you are unranked so get lost. I choose not to play ranked because I help watch my Aunt's 19 month old son. I would rather incur the Leave buster in norms than affect other players ranks. Leaver Buster is better than costing others LP.

So I am doing ranked players a courtesy by not ruining their matches.. Yes I know I still ruining other's matches in normals but to me that is better than ruining someone's ranked match.

Of course many salty bronzsilvers will downvote you, but don't worry man, you get it. YOu will soon be rid of those people, simply by letting them behind while you climb the ladder.

what he says is sound... the way he says it makes me want to do the exact opposite though... except for the last few ones, those are just stupid and dumb and will not follow them even if he was speaking in a decent manner

I dunno man, support brand definitely needs morello or mana sustain before sightstone.
