Support is the only role that feels utterly hopeless at times.

You can carry from the jungle, mid, top, or ADC. So when you get a bad team you can at least try and carry them, so there's a faint glimmer of hope that the game is still winnable.

As a support? It feels hopeless. Whenever I get a bad team as a support it honestly makes me just want to leave the game, more than anything. Because I know, no matter how hard I try to set them up, ultimately it amounts to absolutely zero and usually just ends up in me dying.

And that's a terrible feeling, the feeling of playing your heart out, trying 110% to win the game and not being able to because you require a team to be useful.

That, is the epitome of unfun.

This is how I feel playing support.

Try first picking a toplaner that is not Maokai or Ekko. Evertything in Toplane has a matchup that completely buttfucks them. I hate first picking my toplaner these days...

The way supports carry is by making it as simple as possible for the thickest of teams to do stuff. I've taken to playing Braum as my main support choice recently because of how clearly people can understand him - if you've marked someone with your passive, even the stupidest of teams understand that they've gotta proc that stun :P Alas, that's the life. I've always had the dream of a proper fighter support that could go toe to toe with other fighters, closest we've got to that is Taric :/

Play an AP support, the kind that can build AP on their own and deal a shit ton of damage.

Lux Velkoz Teemo are your friends and can absolutely carry games from the support position. Even the likes of Sona Karma Morgana can carry games from the support position by building AP.
