"Playing support isn't fun" and why I think it's a lie
Sup, it's me again, your friendly neighborhood cuck. I'm here to tell you why the argument that champions like Soraka and Janna aren't fun.
I play Overwatch sometimes, decent enough game, community is the same as League, has it's ups and downs. I like Widowmaker because I'm a tool and headshots are fun. But what's even more fun to me is Mercy. Healthy or not, old or new, I enjoy her. Maybe it's because I like blondes with sexy accents, maybe I just like flying. But her healing and damage boost is super fun to me. I laugh like an asshole when I heal someone through 900 damage because I keep healing them and they just heal to full five times. It feels great to damage boost someone and just see the kill feed go nuts and during that POTG they have a little icon with my name on their screen. I even enjoy it in League sometimes. If I play support I love Soraka because I heal the shit out of kids and it feels good, to deny a kill because of a clutch heal or shield.
So you can't say "oh playing them is boring" because boring is subjective, it's an opinion. I enjoy playing healers a lot because I'm just laughing my ass off as the enemy gets desperate for a kill. Supports being boring isn't the issue. It's players that just want to see their name and huge damage numbers. And don't tell me it isn't because if players didn't want that I wouldn't have three to four carries per game on average in a team, and people wouldn't be bashing on ADCs saying "You just think the game is about you" because no shit they literally play the CARRY role to be the team superstar.
Supports are not boring, it's just too many players want a gold star and to be praised.

, I can see a big play that i made to win us a fight, being able to save someone or win a fight single handily feels amazing. But some times I feel useless and feel like i did nothing to help the game. That's what makes support boring to people. or at least that's my take on it. Again you support players are the best, love you!
. I just love playing agressive supports!
