support
well that's not really the best choice, can I get a real support?
Uhh Her secondary role is assigned support
Look we both know that nobody considers syndra a support, can you pick like a healer or something?
FINE, Here you go SCRUB
khorney12 voteslol i ahte when peopel say hey supp who are you going to be.......why the fck does it matter who am i going to be.....there is nothign wrong with syndra or liss both have peel and cc and harass so why does it matter
mosaickle8 votesBecause the support role has many far better options than current 'conventional mages'. Lissandra isn't listed as a support for the same reason why someone like Soraka isn't listed as a mage. Sure both can do each other but they're just way better at doing what they're primary designed for
khorney3 votesliss can be a supp more then raka can be a mage... zil can do both and i pray they pick zed when i pick zil. lets see 2 forms of cc and free spells and good harass your right liss is useless bot. i was doign malz bot right when they reworked him and the games i played we smashed bot lane then the typical blame supp train comes out.... but yah i was using malz gee lets guess good poke great peeling via voidlings. i was a troll lol until a person did it in lcs and all of a sudden i was copying them ...gtfo i was doign it before them. i sue j4 as a supp for the same reason...no reason not to its liek leo only he has less cds and gives attack speed slow and the cc type ult
It Hertz When IP8 votesAward of one million internet dollars to whoever can translate this to English.
Not xPeke6 votes"Lissandra is more likely to be a support than Soraka is to being a mage. Zilean can do both, and I always hope the enemy picks Zed when I pick him (because it's good against Zed yo). 2 of Lissandra's abilities provide CC. She can also cast free spells thanks to her passive, + she has decent poke. You're right, Liss support is useless (this is sarcasm).
I was playing Malz support as soon as he got reworked and i used to smash botlane all the time but then as a Support player you always get blamed (I think this is what he's saying - not entirely sure, this is very confusing). But anyway I was playing Malz support because he has good poke and good peel. I was branded a troll until a Pro Player played Malz Support in the LCS. After that everyone assumed I was just copying the LCS players.. BUT NOOO I was doing it before them!
I've also used J4 as a support for similar reasons. I see no reason why he couldn't work in the botlane. He's like Leona except that he has shorter CDs and also grants allies increased attack speed. His ult is also great."
It might not be perfect, it was hard work and I'm tired.

Morgan le Fey4 votesLiss support: I've seen it, and it was horrible. She relies too much on Q poke, which decimates the wave. If they rework her and give her a little more tank or some more range, then I can see it being really decent.
J4 support: This is actually really good if you build it properly. Just don't build him like normal support. J4 support works because he roleplays as a more-aggressive Alistar with huge buffs for his ADC. Plus, his passive is good for applying damage without last-hitting people (up-front damage) and for executing minions for the shield, and his Q is great at snagging shield minions when you're zoned out. It's especially good with Kalista for the banner AS buff + the rather stupid engage range from the Kali ult -> J4 E->Q->R.
Slythion65 votesmaybe because bot lane synergy is...oh I don't know...important?
khorney2 votesthere is no syngery...why people keep thinkign that is beyond me either you will win or you wont htere is no need for you to bash the supp for pickign someone adn bet toxic about it who fckn cares who they pick

is a pretty good synergy

is pretty terrifying once they hit 6. Pretty much no way to escape MF ult.

kargish5 votesThis is the real synergy 
3TWarrior5 votesmarksman:
support: 
there is no synergy more true! XD kalista actually is pretty close to a ranged support with her mobile ward that tracks and her ability to pick when she engages and when she doesn't with her passive and ultimate
also, up to 20% max hp magic damage for auto attacking the same champion XD
SzGamer2278 votesI shit myself whenever I see bot lane.
I still have traumatic flashbacks to when they hit 6, and I stopped playing adc months ago.
It Hertz When IP18 votes 
THey never... fucking.... DIED.
Steelflame2 votesWait, can Kench eat Kalista as she cast ult, so that he can launch both of them away? If not, then the only really impactful part of that synergy is if Kalista ults as Kench eats a foe, and he flings himself into his tower for the delivery of squishy support/ADC to tower.

ChaoticPinecone3 votesBut its funny how some ADCs only think about synergy when it for other people to change their picks.
Like, I love playing with an Ashe/Varus as mage-support for the level 6 all in. Why doesnt the ADC choose to synergize with the support?
Sp33d Zer03 votesWe do.
SinofAtlas11 votesI 
Supp all the time. Despite what you may think, any spell he lands adds to his AP. So he becomes a heavy hitter with support items. But I don't do it for that. I do it for that MASSIVE zoning tool he has. Yeah, that thing.
Sir Fuzzi1 votesIt would be pretty valuable pretty quickly on a carry who could push the burst. And supp items usually means CDR. Do you have experience with which carries work well?
SinofAtlas4 votesCait Jinx or Draven. Draven just has that massive burst. Cait and Jinx with those traps, but Cait with her range works best. Because 2 people with a zoning tool is just dumb. I love it.
Bladerunner777713 votesVeigar is actually somewhat viable though
Syndra and a lot of other midlaners need way more gold to be effective
LordGeovanni2 votesBecause you looking for damage from the support when that isnt their job just a happy extra. Same thing when i play Nasus support i fall behind in stacks which i can stack with 
and i rush 
before other items. I have a 4 second slow that i max first if not E and people cant move i provide armor shred effectively buffing adc damage i have a healthy lane and heal adc by killing minions so i can stack melee minions and mainly seige minion +6. I gain damage have strong utility and i free up a spot for some one befy because nasus top is hardly beefy and support tanks are hardly beefy put them together and extra space for actual engage. But i al ways ger bm for No damage Nasus because im not taking more farm than my cooldown else i get bm for taking farm. Much like when i played support early season 5 before his constant damage nerfs then pros played him getting him even more nerfs i got bmed and told i was reported nearly every game and hard carried most of themm to a win With 
into 
tank before cinderhulk got sunfire damage nerfs and even after then for the rest of the year.
Point is you get a syndra support she can keep the adc from farming with 4 second q spam she has cc and can deny minions with w ( it still effects allied minions right ) Why you still looking for carry damage from her? They can be effective just dont expect them to be effective in the exact same way as in other lanes.
Sp33d Zer03 votesThe reason that veigar works as a support more than syndra is because veigar can generate extra ap by just focusing on harassing.
The reason Nasus support is not good right now (it may be good on the next patch) is because you NEED stacks from getting the cs to have effective damage, and wither is only so strong with his e. If his w or e were better (which is happening with e next patch) he could see legitimate support play.
Poske3 votesSyndra is level reliant also
Douglas Funnie11 votesNid support, especially back in the day was okay. Now, it's irrelevant. However, it's still a much better pick than Syndra... This is clearly a mid player who got auto filled as a support and expected someone to dodge for him/her. It's a strategy played by trolls who want to play elaborate games to other players in champ select. The troll wanted to hold players hostage, forcing them to dodge so that he/she can reenter champ select without having to wait due to a locked queue timer.
Xonra11 votesEeeeexactly.
Not like there aren't actually good mid laners to support with.
Better support than Syndra

Just to name a few that can legit support, and STILL be useful (not kinda meh, but actually good) in team fights.
Electro5226 votesEh, I'd take Taliyah off the list. Unless you're a god at landing her W, all she can really ever do is poke, and possibly disengage if she uses her ult right.
Syndra has a long range stun thats fairly difficult to dodge, which can be followed up by a decent, long range slow.
Sure, it takes a bit of set up, but its certainly more useful than just poke damage.
LordGeovanni2 votesSlow before stun wqeqq r Her base damage is high and her cooldowns low she is not bad in the support role she is just infinitely better in mid withh her low cooldown high base damage high scaling damage aoe spells that also have strong cc. As a support you only lose a bit of scaling for 1 item slot where sight stone goes even less with 
.
Poske1 votesAnivia sucks at being support Brand is better of in a support role.... Lux is better of midlane. Absolutely no presence till certain level in support role Malzahar is atm at 54% winrate tier 0 in toplane and mid. So he probably works everywhere due to raw power but he is better of when controling waves Taliyah is fantastic support (My friend does it all the time) I think she is the best poke support in a game Velkoz is also like a best poke support in a game. Its just that taliyah is a bit overtuned Orianna is trash in support role plz never do this
DuskDaUmbreon2 votesAll of those are listed as better alternatives to Syndra support, and all exist in midlane.
But I'm confused as to why you think Orianna is trash support. She's rather similar to Lux in her kit.
notice me Sin pi5 votesused to play 
support as counter back when her charm interrupted dashes.
Used to play support a lot when 
was OP due to warlords. EDIT: ALLY YASUO
Recently have played (and very likely might play again) 
support as a counter pick against .
...and all of the above + with no logic/synergy behind them when tilted af
u prob hate me a lot for it
Xonra1 votesOri makes sense as she actually has a great shield, an ult that doesn't need to do damage to be great in fights, and has some zoning with her ball. Makes sense. Though your logic for it made no sense as Yasuo just says "no" to Ori with his shield as her ball doesn't pass through it.
Lux has a root(yes I know it isn't a stun, I was thinking ahead to something else I left out and mistyped) and a shield, sure, it CAN work.
Ahri seems silly and doesn't support at all, so think that's kind of borderline trolly. Especially since it makes zero sense how you are saying that is a counter to Leona. Best you have is hoping you hit all your charms, then you just dash around a lot doing nothing.
Teemo also very trolly support. You have mushrooms for wards I guess, but they do no damage without the lots of AP, so not sure even the point. The blind isn't THAT important, and far from counters Cait. As I would personally just poke you out any time you walked near enough to even try to use it. Trap, headshot, net, headshot, and then auto. That is the most bassackwards "counter".
Weasel Kensei6 votesLux does not have a stun... neither does Morgana Q stun while on the subject...
Its just not a stun, NO... it isnt.
RookPusher5 votesLet's not refer to the autofill trash playing support as Support. They're scabs crossing the picket line #hiresupportplayerstoday!
Pierce The Veal4 votesJust let them play the support they want and are good at maybe?
DuskDaUmbreon4 votesWell. Syndra is a shit support, as she has nothing but damage and CC. She's not tanky, either. It is entirely justified for an ADC to want a support that actually can keep them alive, and not just one that exists solely to kill the enemy ADC. Is it selfish in a way? Sure. But it's also justified.
As an ADC, I expect you to pick a real support. As a support, I expect you to pick a real ADC. No matter what lane you pick, I expect you to pick someone feasibly viable for that lane. If you cripple the team comp, and we lose because if it...

Nah man Syndra support is legit. You say she has "nothing but cc and damage." What more do you want goddamnit? All supports have to be healing bots or tanking bots for you so you can shine in glory? She helps you murder the enemy botlane, so I ask again, what more do you want?
TheDonar2 votesJust let them play the support they want and are good at maybe?
Whaaaaat? And miss an opportunity to force them to play a champ they know little about simply because the ADC saw a particular combo work at a pro tournament? C'mon now.
