What is feeding as support?

The fact that these people recieved 3 downvotes in the space of an hour just proves that you are manipulative, while you got 2 additional upvotes in that same time fram shows that you are a liar and any words that you speak are to be treated with caution. You are literally worse than Trump. Why haven't other people commented on this?

Soraka and Braum have lower damage values than Sona going purely off of ratios and bases.

You keep on saying that Nami is a better Sona, and Bard is a better Nami, but I keep on showing to you that Bard does less damage with the same items as Sona with an auto targeted ability plus an auto attack. There is almost no counterplay to Hymn of Valor because the only ADC that can outrange Hymn of Valor with auto attacks is Twitch with his ulti. Sona is fine as is, her statistics in terms of playrate/ winrate ratios. And have you ever thought why Sona would have the 3rd lowest damage of all supports? Maybe because you can;t dodge Hymn of Valor, meanwhile any ADC with any mobility can dodge Aqua Prison, Starcall, Equinox, Death Sentence, Rocket Grab, Zenith Blade, Cosmic Binding, Dredge Line, WInter's Bit etc. etc.. The only other supports that have targeted abilities (that are not attached to an auto attack) are Nami with Ebb and Flow, and Taric with Dazzle, might've been another that I've forgotten, but yeah sorry.

Oh yeah, you're also the same person that says Ahri is trash when PowerOfEvil says that she's one of the best midlaners for solo queue. Calls Quinn garbage when Huni is spamming her. Yeah logic.

I'm just stating facts. She has the 2nd-lowest dmg of all supports, worst healing/shielding with highst mana cost and is the only support in the game without reliable pre-6 cc. Not to mention being the least-picked support in competitive play, she sees less professional screen time than Taric and off-supports like Syndra or Kayle. The list goes on, but truth is truth whether people are willing to accept it or not.

Nice list of opinions.

http://www.champion.gg/champion/Sona

Sona is 7th (out of 25) for damage dealt.

She is actually 1st when you look at traditional supports. The 6 "supports" that are, on average, outdamaging Sona, are actually mages. Being natural damage dealers, and having 3 (if not 4) damaging abilities when she only has 2 (+ conditional passive) it only makes sense that they hurt more than Sona.

http://www.champion.gg/statistics/#?roleSort=Support&sortBy=general.totalHeal&order=descend

She is 6th (out of 25) for healing done. Of course many of these champions are not healers, but she still outheals Bard and stands 4 ranks before him. It should also be worth nothing that a part of the power on Sona's W is the shield, which is not calculated here. Also, Trundle's "healing" is self healing, and Alistar's heal also heals the wave (which is not really that useful).

Her lack of popularity in competitive play is because laning phase is getting shorter and shorter, and Sona's strength lies within her laning phase. She is a good laner, a good teamfigther, but a mediocre roamer, which is what supports do a lot atm.

"or you were at the wrong spot at the wrong time too often." Bad positioning on a mage support is a habit of bad mage supports. But yea, I was kinda talking about as they get played the most. I can see a 2/8/16 Braum being called ok if he landed his R whole team, died peeling, and his team aced.

is not really a mage support, he's the kind of tanky engage support I was talking about actually

Depends on what they did after the fight tbh. Did they force down towers, take Baron/Dragon, and secure objectives, or did they run off to the jungle/side lanes and farm? Winning a teamfight doesn't mean much if you don't press your advantage.

well, if you grant them an ace on a silver platter and they use it to farm wolves, that's your teammates being bad, not you

You don't need to do that unless you subtract every team fight death for tanks too. If you die in a team fight that your team wins because of your flash Crescendo then you probably went like 0/1/4 in that fight and gaining ~4 assists for 1 death is far from feeding. No need for weird "don't count this death!" stuff.

well don't count this death in your "am I feeding?" questioning, that's what I meant.
