At what times should I use an AP support vs. an AD support. I know if the team is low on AP, then I should run an AP support.
I know team comps are a factor as well, but I dont know what should go with what.
For instance a protect the carry comp gets what kind of support. I would guess AP as most have a shield and heal, but Thresh works as well.
If someone could explain this to me, that would be great. I dont ever really hear pros or even people talk about this.
Newb the Legend1 votesI have never heard of an AD Support, what are some examples of them?

ZeeDrakon1 votesWtf are "ad supports"?
LegendaryLemur1 votesA protect the carry comp would want a disengage/peel support like janna. Though they'll often take a second utility champion (most often Lulu in another lane.
KidSpectre1 votesThe closest thing I've seen to an AD Support is when I build Leona bruiser so I can splitpush to keep pressure up. This only works if I get very much ahead early on.
Occasionally I will rush Shiv (before going AP) on the likes of Soraka just to screw with the enemy, and it only works when I'm ahead.
In the very rare cases I have 4 AD champions on my team, I will sometimes get Zeke's Herald. This is quite effective.
