Okay so, Bard. (discussion)

Hi everyone! This is my first post on this boards thing, never really been one for stuff like this but I thought I'd give it a try. So, I like playing Bard. One win away from being mastery 5 with him, but as we all know that doesn't determine real skill with any champ, that just determines how practiced you are. I find myself to be a decently above average Bard player, but even when our team is winning there might be a couple of fringe cases where people still complain about me picking Bard. This is especially prevalent when I'm Bard mid. It sounds crazy, but it works if you're at least a good decision maker, knowing when and when not to go for chimes and roam and the like. Anyway, the gist of this is to just start a discussion about this champion. What are your thoughts on him? Is he a good or bad champ in your opinion? Just talk about him. I personally love playing as him, because he's one of the few very different champs, and I find him to be just a blast to play as. I haven't taken him into ranked due to the sole fact that I am a bit afraid to because people generally don't see him as the most useful support. People would rather have Morgana, who I'm quite frankly awful as! Anyway, I went off topic. Bard! He's cool!
