"Sona has no counterplay"

FireDrizzle··2 votes·514 views

Soraka is too tanky to focus with a warmogs and tanks stats. Heals arent aimed. Lulu point and click turns her adc into a god and point and click peels you. Janna Her hard cc is knockups so tenacity is useless. Point and click shield like Lulu. Other than dodge the tornado no counterplay.

I know tank supports are really good atm but point is Sona is less obnoxious to play against and has more counterplay as someone who can be focused. Atleast if she saves herself with ult it can be a waste due to its impact and long cooldown, Lulu and Janna have peel on basics and Soraka can make herself tanky.

Turning Sonas Q into a skillshot is just taking variety from the game. There isnt any more countplay to auto attacks. Sona can actually be bursted down, she is not as safe as other enchanters.

Sorakas don't seem to be building Warmongs and Spirit Visage much these days Lulu's defensive utility is mildly unaffective to ranged poke and such threats. Janna is a host of different problems altogether.

Other than Janna, you're reeeeaaally overselling this.

Enchanters need to be removed from the game, pansy class.

Yeah, every support should be removed, let alone all assassin and adc fun gameplay. I hope you get one shot by enemy's Syndra and Rengar. Without any support's help.

enchanters as a whole are just terrible design and need to be worked on(would say a group rework thing but those are terrible)

How are those terrible? They are designed to help and protect teammates. If enemy team has support(enchanter), why aren't your team having one too? I hope you as any other lane will be one shot by Rengar/Khazix/Syndra/Kayn and don't cry for why there's no shield/healing support helping you. You deserve that with no respect to support players.

In current patch, those healing support are destroyed by Leona/Blitz/alistar or any other high scaling ap champions.

In early game phrase before 10 minutes, healing/shielding-oriented champion are weak, low armors and high mana consumption. The bonus stats from previous rune system has gone. Which means now in early game they have no more bonus Armor nor magic resistance.

You as an ADC could easily outpoke them with Press the Attack and one engage-oriented champion like I mentioned. This is 5v5 teammate game. Tell your teammate to help focus-fire on enemy's (enchanter) support if they can reverse their game.

Otherwise what you said about game unhealthy are invalid.

I'm talking about their design not their current strength. "I know tank supports are really good atm" "I know tank supports are really good atm"

"You as an ADC could easily outpoke them with Press the Attack and one engage-oriented champion like I mentioned."I never even play adc.

"Tell your teammate to help focus-fire on enemy's (enchanter) support if they can reverse their game. " As I said they have self peel and Soraka can build not to die if she has too.

Healing/shielding support has been here since S1. If their design arent healthy, Riot should have changed the support meta into full 5v5 dps.

  1. If you never played ADC, that's your team's ADC problem that he can't lane bully enemy along with your team's support.

  2. You said they have self-peel, so do your team. Your team have a support as well. Instead of directing the enemy, but probably ask your teammate to pick one of those "unhealthy" support to help you too.

Why every support? Things like Blitz, Naut, Brand or Vel'Koz need at least a couple of brain cells to play since they have skillshots with high CD and they need to interact with enemy players so they give the enemy a chance to outplay them. Enchanters, on the other hand, can play like satellites all game and most of their spells are targeted CC or heal/shield so you have 0 oppurtunity to outplay them. How do you outplay a Lulu who just polymorphs you for 2.25 sec off cooldown or a Sona who scrubs the keyboard?

By saying removing every support sarcastically. He obviously doesn't need support on his team.
