Why do some players take offense when you ask them to build a certain item?
I just came from a match where a gragas(Support) Refused to build redemption even though it would help us massively in team fights.
He tells me to build it as "He know what he is doing"
I told him that i couldnt sacrifice anymore tankiness to build it as i was the only tank on the team and i was getting melted with in 0.5 seconds.
Like shit man, i'm asking you to build an item not sacrifice your cat to teemo.

is not always necessary on supports. There are legit wasted stats on the thing if you do not already sport a heal or a shield, so asking a Gragas to build it is ludicrous. Gragas should be building things like Iceborn Gauntlet, Rylai's, Face of the Mountain, and a few other things that compliment his play style as a beefy mage-tank. While Redemption does have some universal stats, it doesn't flow with Gragas' play style. If you recommended he build the Proto-Belt, yeah, that would fit. But seriously, Redemption isn't core on every support, so get over it.
