Now you're intentionally trying to kill the support role, COMMUNITY

Lost R··6 votes·540 views

Still not Riot's fault. It's still you assholes out there who continue to belittle the role. You continue to treat the role like total shit, who treat them like nothing more than a playable minion who is only allowed to buy wards.

Even overcapped on wards they're not warding at all.

Even when they're the ONLY tank on your team, they're not tanking at all.

Any kill a support has is a stolen one.

Any death a support has is intentionally feeding.

Any champion they pick, no matter how much sense it makes, is trolling if it's not what you want.

They are only allowed to assist the ADC.

Only the ADC is allowed to tell them what to pick, do, build, etc.

The team losing is automatically the support's fault, no matter how inaccurate that may be.

These are the claims continuously made against supports, and you continue to do it. In fact, you've doubled down on it in the past week. You want to let the Dynamic Queue stretch on out to eternity because you have disenfranchised an entire role? Have at it. I'm laughing my ass off that most of you out there have to sit in a queue for thirty minutes while I barely wait one second.

Tldr version; "waaah"

Maybe often in Bronze chaos .... but infinitesimally in Diamond pride.

Idk why people complain, I'll take a kat support that takes all the kills while I farm up in true peace lol (has happened, yes we won. was an ad/tank kat strangely enough)

I very rarely see a support being harassed, I always see the jungler harassed or one of the carries. I'm a mediocre support, but it's the only role I've honestly ever received compliments regularly from my team. Meanwhile, if I'm jungling and doing well, even if I steal Drag/Baron my team will still rage at me.

It's been the opposite for me. For me, being the jungler is like a vacation, considering how much crap I end up dealing with from the team whenever I'm the support. I never get that crap when I'm the jungler.

Lately, from what i have noticed as a support main, I have recieved less of that since the new que. Even as a jungler too.

Now lately, it has been whomever has 0 kills but a ton of deaths and is feeding the enemy team like crazy.

I support less often recently until I get back to my old mmr level. Adc could 1v2 halfway through the lane, die before getting to their tower and it's the supports fault even though you pinged, typed, and warned. Your fault. Adc dies in a 2v2 bot lane? Your fault. So I went to solo lanes to get some easy wins back. Cant stand lower than Silver2. Freaking hell.

Honestly there's only 2 things that bother me whether I'm ADC, mid, jungle etc.

  1. Sona support building damage
  2. No sightstone/pink wards/vision denial

Now I understand warding and vision denial is everyone's job but the support is the one building the sightstone. Their name is literally support so please support the team with vision :)

The support's job ISN'T to be a ward mule. Riot stomped on that idea back in late 2013. The support is supposed to support the team through utility, which can be interpreted in any number of ways. Just slapping a sightstone on anybody, however, won't make them a support.

And just like every other person you only read what you want to read and ignore everything else.

Never once fucking said support was a ward mule. But as a support, one of your major jobs is vision control. When in the LCS has a support NOT build sightstone/bought pinks and had a sweeper?

In LCS adc also don't waste trinket and know when to or not to degend a pink ward in the tribrush/river. So there's that. Also, people look at the minimap, while in common games, not so much.

When as a support i place a pink in a spot where it's convenient to have a pink, and my adc never helps to protect it letting the Enemy destroy it, I usually just give up and accept that it's just better to build health and go for an all-in when their jungler is top or mid.

Plus, don't get me started on adc who waste trinkets in the river while their jungler is still clearing buffs.

Some build sightstone, and then don't place any.

Even when they're the ONLY tank on your team, they're not tanking at all.

You can't tank on a supports wages, and sight stone only hurts your tankyness (over other items).

Any kill a support has is a stolen one.

Depends how many.

Any death a support has is intentionally feeding.

Again, depends how many.

Any champion they pick, no matter how much sense it makes, is trolling if it's not what you want.

You hit this one 100%

They are only allowed to assist the ADC.

(also) You hit this 100%

Only the ADC is allowed to tell them what to pick, do, build, etc.

Also true.

The team losing is automatically the support's fault, no matter how inaccurate that may be.

False, I blame the jungler.

These are the claims continuously made against supports, and you continue to do it. In fact, you've doubled down on it in the past week.

I still blame jungler.
