Dear Support 'Mains', don't be a Luke.

ABlueQuaker··102 votes·3,812 views

Luke is a friend I know exclusively through LoL who claims to be a Support 'main'.

Luke thinks Support means he gets to sit there passively in lane and thinks, so long as he shits out 3 wards every time he returns from base, that he is doing his job. Luke also thinks that if he puts a shield on his ADC, the ADC can then 1v2.

Luke is a scumbag. Don't be a Luke.

Atleast luke buys a sightstone, that's more than most supports do these days. So honestly i wouldn't mind getting luke as a support.

Honestly, i think players like you are what made support so unsatisfying and boring to play. You want to play ADC, but you want to have health battery that sacrifices itself to save you, not actual teammate.

How do you get that from what he said?

Petranese1 votes

You implied that supports not getting sightstone are for some reason worse than OP's "Luke".

Literally all i want from my support is for them to buy a sightstone(and use it). The other 5 items are up to them.You could literally build item 2301 item 3031 item 3031 item 3031 item 3031 item 3031 and i would be totally okay with that

If supports w/o SS used their yellow trinkets and control wards, then fine

Which is what legitimate support players do. I have nearly 90% uptime on pinks whenever i don't build SS

A "Friend" you have a pretty shitty idea of what a friend looks like if you think that posting a whole page on the boards basically shit talking them makes you a friend. I wouldn't want to be your friend.

You missed the "exclusively through league"..... You have a friends list....... Are you actually best chums with every single person on a maximum of 325 friends list? And with your best friends even, is there nothing that just irks you about them? You just started bashing them without any context of if luke is even real xD well done by making yourself look silly....... Unless you are luke and this is all an elaborate game you two have going.... In which case id say well played

  1. 'Luke' is a pseudonym.
  2. 'Luke' is technically more of an acquaintance. He is a 'Friend' in the sense that he is on my 'Friends List'.

Luke is why I became a support main. If I go support, the chances of Luke being on my team becomes zero.

Translation: OP doesn't understand how Soraka and Janna work.

Fashion Mage2 votes

That's almost certainly the case from the way he worded things.

Yalathanil3 votes

It is obvious he is suffering from ADCffluenza, a disease where the mind of an ADC main is warped to the point where they see their support as simply a meatshield that will help get them kills, and then have the satisfaction of flaming for dying in the first place.

Fashion Mage1 votes

Honestly, how did this topic even get upvoted.

Luke also blew up the death star. Maybe luke just had a rough day and is sick of carrying the team. Maybe luke just wants to unwind and forget about the galactic civil war for a game. Maybe luke is feeling really bad about how he only really met his father when his father was about to die. Maybe luke doesn't want to think about how the empire is rising again.

I could say the same about Fred, except he only plays Blitzcrank and lives and dies for the Rocket Pull, everything else Is irrelevant.

Don't know why this is getting downvoted. Any support let alone support main main worth their salt knows better than to think like this.

Agree, in fact as a support main myself I get ticked when the ADC doesn't follow up on my poke! Funny post!

I really dislike when people think that you need to play passively as a healing/shielding/tank support.

You're going to get zoned instantly in this meta if you don't push back. Brand Zyra Malzahar can do so much damage with item 3303 . They can even kill your carry.

I'm a Soraka and I'm always trying to carve out room in the lane for my carry. I know if we get zoned under tower that the enemy will likely freeze the wave and attempt to starve us of XP. Supports already are on a lean XP diet, and ADCs scale. So that can have a huge impact on the game and make us easier to kill or dive.

Supports need to be active in lane. Don't just sit behind the ADC because they're weak early game. They can't protect you.

The meta bot lane has changed a lot since last season. Previously you could play passively and get by for the most part.

Marksmen are no longer in an unusually absurd state, except for the Marksmen of the Moment™, previously Jhin now Lucian . In addition last season we didn't really see a lot of AP mages bot. You did in low ELO, but many experienced support players could deal with them easily because they were fill mid laners. They'd end up siphoning gold from their carry and get punished for it. However this season is different.

They can get away with a lot more and actually become the carry bot lane. The reason they're picked so often is because it is difficult to protect your carry when you leave lane. Many people are finding it easier to just kill the incoming broken assassin or put out an absurd amount of damage to make them back off. Certain champions with item 3303 are allowed to do that. They don't have many issues getting item 2301 either. Almost every AP support in Gold I've seen has that item, and they get it quite early.

There isn't any downside to getting it for them because they can do so much damage with very little.

You really do not want to be playing passively as a support. That shouldn't be your playstyle anyways, but in this bot lane meta you're going to have a rough time if you do.

You're supposed to be aggressive with Soraka. She has absurd mana regen, loads of poke, and her ability to heal and pump out healing means almost any trade is favorable for her in the bot lane. Sitting around at full health as Soraka is essentially like buying a corrupting potion and playing passive.

Let me guess, he's a Janna main?

Pretty much any of the Shield/Heal Ward-Bitch Supports. He's pretty pathetic to play with - he just expects to get carried.

Support being one of my best roles, warding is where I fall short. My job as a support is to take away the enemy's dignity, and sometimes my own adc's dignity if they can't finish off the enemy. Sincerely, the cocky Braum JarvanIV .

As a support main i scream on my monitor every time my ADC DOES follow up on my poke.

And dies.

Because sure, i took 2/3 off his HP, but now i am dry and can't do shit for 15 seconds, so you'll just die if you go in. If you want to contribute, look for openings before they happen. When my abilities hit it's already late to join.

I have this issue mostly with Trundle. I always tell them up front, I make a lot of bad trades because my regen allows it; they don't have to follow up. And they do. Every time. Then complain they can't CS because I'm going in all the time. (- -_- -)

Interestingly. When I play Leona and tell them to follow up on my dives, they always farm. What is wrong with you people!? (o_O)

Krigjer1 votes

I mean. Just because I'm playing passively in the back doesn't mean I 'have no idea how to play support'. I have been berated by too many adcs for playing passively against a Nautilus support. Like. What's wrong with just farming and waiting for your jungle to come in to help?

ForeverLaxx1 votes

Reminds me of this Soraka player I ran into a long ways back, who picked Soraka after I got Vayne to punish their passive and prone-to-CC bottom lane picks. This player proceeded to stand behind the tower, only coming out to throw a random heal, and expected me to 2v1 the lane phase. That was one of the fastest losses I experienced.
