I actually enjoy down bot lane as a support, I'm in the process of learning play makers such as Blitz and Threah and Brand.... I am asking this cause I'm hard stuck at silver 5 , idk what it is honestly a mixture of bad ADC, no ganks from jungle and I could really use help on what I have to do to climb as support?!?!?
Escheton2 votesDon't play play makers basically. Play makers require follow up. Low elo has terrible follow up.
Low elo supports that are good are more the brute force types that are easy to follow like 
, 
or 
.
Basically champs where you can support, or just go "f*** it, I'm the carry now." if you do well but your adc isn't.
Adaptive build champs.

55% winrate as support last I checked. His early game is beastly. He is very tanky, and with some ad runes, his damage is insane. And he scales very well with health. Which is what most tank supports buy first. He takes a bit to get used too, because he is VERY versatile. As in, you can build him AD, AP, Full Tank, Full Support or anything in between and fare well if you know him and you build him strategically for the situation.
for the AP Carry playstyle, and 
for the "it doesn't matter how slow my adc is to react, you are stunned for an hour" thing.
Durzaka1 votesCharged up Q from bush cant be seen and is incredibly deadly early on.
He is a very potent support when played properly.
RookPusher1 votesSion is one of the few tanks with poke. And should he sacrifice himself so that the ADC can live, he does some post-death damage as well. His CC is pretty solid.
Imperial Pandaa1 votesSo SIon is a good support for the following:
Passive: If he dies, he can still attack the enemy who are probably trying to get the adc now and getting hit for free. (Higher elo will take the kill and drop back a bit unless 3v2 or something.) If you really want to be ballsy and your ADC is okay with being alone for 30 seconds to minute. Go to opposing enemy buff. (Opposite of whatever the enemy jungler starts) And take the camp. Will you die? Yes it will execute you but you can still kill it and secure the buff for yourself. Also setting the enemy jungle behind.
Q:A slow if not charged enough, knock up if charged. After slowing an enemy with your E it is fairly easy to get close enough for a full charge. You can also charge it in brushes and the enemy can't see it unless warded.
W: Health scaling shield/nuke. This also works quite nicely with Relic shield and the proc for execute. You get health for killing and you adc still gets cash flow. You also get additional stacks for kills and assists. Free health which makes items like 
nice since it scales with % health now.
E: With just 1 point in it (more raises the mana cost) you have a dependable poke tool. If you shout at the minion and it hits the enemy they get slowed. If you hit the enemy, they are slowed and reduced armor.
Ult: Either can be used to chain cc after a successful Q or used to return to lane if your ADC is in trouble after you roamed or based. (Get close enough so you can still potentially hit the enemy if they don't run at the bell toll.) Or if an engage went bad andd now you need to run you can use it to escape.
Questions?

Drugoth1 votesGenerally if you're wallowing in a certain tier it's a red flag that you most likely deserve to be there. Granted, it is quite a lot harder to carry from the support role, it is not impossible. Maybe watch a few replays of your games and take some notes on things you could do better. Maybe you're not battling for vision dominance enough, maybe you're not peeling as well as you can.

Vigilente1 votesBlitz and Brand are good supports. Thresh is a bad support in low elos because the only way to do good with him is if your team already has a lead. Thresh just snowballs and secures that lead. But you would feel useless if your team is feeding cause there is really nothing you could do
Very Hard Engage1 votesplay aggressive supports like leona/blitz/thresh/ sometimes nami.
the benefit is you will be able to repeatedly set up your adc to kill the enemy adc with ease, and if you can do that you will win tons of games, not from your adc being big and competent, but because the enemy adc wont even exist.
