My entire team was support mains that got autofilled

Well one was actually a mid main that got autofilled top, while the other four were support mains, three of whom were autofilled to other roles.

At what point did Support become the most popular role? What on earth?

It was actually a pretty chill game, once we realized everyone was autofilled we knew we were in for a loss so we just had fun with it.

If y'all were true supports we'd see all the support champs in all lanes taric top, braum jungle, yuumi+sona bot and of course soraka mid

holy shit I actually am horrified at the concept of fighting that team though

its literally impossible to be autofilled as a support player, they were just on their off roles not autofilled. support is very popular now though, it varies by elo which roles are popular but at a lot of ranks only mid is more popular than support.

He's right btw, I dislike that people confuse secondary role, and autofilled.

That's not entirely true. If you get your off role in a game the next time you queue up you no longer have autofill protection, so a support player can be autofilled.

Support is more popular than jungle and top since these roles are cancer.

Because there are straight up more support players now, i spent 4-5 seasons as a dedicated jungler with the occasional mid play but now am a dedicated support because i can do the job i did as a jungler better as a support, its no longer the junglers job to defend dragon its the supports job effectively.

to be clear its still the junglers job to take dragon and like but to keep vision on it and encourage the enemy jungler to be doing other things with their time? support now does this.

Nice to know they removed autofill protection for support players. Thanks for letting me know. It has been a good long hour since I quit playing and didn't know this change had taken effect.

It is a very good question. I'm from EUNE and since the latest patch, I always get my second role (jungler). Before it, I nonstop got my primary (support).

I even asked exactly that "Support just became that popular ? What the heck ?"

I could see support more popular than jungle and top now. Jungle for having more pressure than the ADC to carry games. Top being a pressured by 1 screw up and it'll just be a repeated mess.

OK but just think about how much time you saved instead of waiting in queue
