Don't people get disgusted or bored playing passive supports?

Mainly

Soraka Sona Karma Janna Nami

in mind.

Seriously apart from the fact they're unmanly, girly champions, they are so boring to play and watch. All they do is heal, shield, poke with some lame ass autos or unremarkable attacks, and if they're by themselves? THEY DON'T EVEN TRY TO FIGHT YOU 1 on 1, THEY JUST RUN AWAY LIKE THIS LOOK AT THE LINK. HOW DO YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF PLAYING LIKE THIS.

And people wonder why no one likes support. It's such a borderline feminine role that promotes cowardice and mundanity with shit like warding the map.

Don't be dissing on my Sona and Nami, I do plenty of engages on the both of them. That being said, the less work I have to do as a support to keep your suicidal ass alive means I'll be better later in the game since I can keep us from being poked out of lane.

Also, if you want to talk boring supports champs that aren't girly: Alistar Blitzcrank Velkoz Braum Shen

"OMG, we're so great, we just press a button and don't have to do anything"

Except 3 of those champs actually have to aim compare to Soraka. Who can just press R and turn a whole fight around

Wait, why is the fact that they're girls bad?

And I like playing as soraka. There's some satisfaction in it.

it's not bad if you're a girl.

A man playing a female champion that takes no part of the action is probably of questionable orientation.

There's no satisfaction man. Play a real support like Leona

Oh, you're anti-lgbt, aren't you?

And I find it satisfying. I enjoy dishing out the heals and saving someone across the map with my ult

that's not what LoL is about. Riot said so in their gameplay philosophy Q/A.

midnight oil241 votes

Okay. Let's take a look at another.

I provide landing Q's with Nami to get the stun, then allowing my allies to get a minor heal with my W.

Admittedly I havne't gotten to play a ton of Nami, but she's more satisfying to me than Taric or Leona.

No, he's 100% troll.

Look at his match history, or better yet, the name of the Soraka in the clip who got the kill.

midnight oil241 votes

Ah, okay. Thanks for the info.

Passive supports are the worst. Literally just sit back and heal or peel, no engage no action nothing.

I know, they have no place in the game. I wonder what goes through the mind of people that play Janna or Soraka

Cowards? Guys that would just give up lunch money to the school jock if they demanded it without a fight?

I was going for the one guy in the group who prefers to just watch his team does the project while he just does some little spell proofing here and there.

midnight oil241 votes

Or rather, in my case, be a timid person who gets stuck with the most commanding people in the class.

But I get what you're aiming for.

yeah cowards, not those who help and support their friends in need. Who would help them in tough situations. No, they are cowards who give up lunch money to a bully. Yeah great analogy there

They do actually. Just like you can play passive with aggressive champions, you can play aggressive with passive champions.

Janna flash+ulting people into her team, for instance. Saying passive champions have no place in League is like saying Healers have no place in MMOs, which is untrue.

Yeah, that just screams bias and crying on Morello's part.

Plus, it was 7 years ago.

League had lots changed in 7 years.

No it's not crying, he has an irrefutable point.

You ever play TF2?? You know the feeling of a team being constantly sustained by a Medic? If you don't have one, you're screwed. The way they hide behind their pockets mirrors how Soraka does the same shit.

It's unhealthy.

That he hates healers. That´s all he really says. Healers provide means of allowing teammates to survive other than being meatshields. Thay can´t be meatshields, so they get something else to help.

A college friend plays Medic. I don´t particularly mind medics on the other team because well....i play Spy, so yeah.

It's unhealthy.

So Mercy and Ana are unhealthy?

Healers are crucial at this point, especially in team games. They promote a different playstyle. Not everyone wants action in all things. Not everyone wants to be a meatshield, not everyone wants to be the frontline. That´s why healers still exist in League despite Morello's 1000% biased opinion. League is supposed to be a game that offers multiple characters that suit multiple playstyles and tastes.

League would be completely dead if aggressive champions were all it has.

How about we talk abit more positive? I mean, Thresh is the best support, you gotta be insane of not thinking so.

Talking about supports like Soraka and Janna, not Thresh.

Janna's the only one on there that's passive lol. If you play Nami by just spamming E all the time you're dumb.

The only reason I hate support? You can't carry if your ADC sucks. Try supporting an ADC that auto attacks minions, or better yet an ADC that doesn't focus on minions and wants to get kills, then flames you for not dying with him when he goes all in trying to kill the enemy team.

My advice? Don't play ADC if your KDA is 1/2/1 or if you can't average at-least 60 CS in 10 minutes, note I'm asking for the bare minumum.
