It kinda bothers me how you can be mid 5 times in a row after 4 people dodge, but then...

A last person dodges and there you are, at top/jg/adc/supp instead. How about some continuity there? It's kind of like god saying 'no, fuck you, you're not carrying' since toplane can't always carry against a Quinn top or some other stupid FOTM. I got placed in silver for the flexQ bullshit, least you can do is let me have my primary even after dodges.

If you want continuity play supp primary, I recommend that, you will never see any other role in the game...

Yeah, but unless you're a stupid cheese support like Brand or Velkoz, you can hardly carry your animal team.

Wrong, Leona support's perfectly capable of winning. I know someone who went from bronze 1 all the way to plat 4 playing Leona support.

I'm a leona main, but it's also not as fun.

Fun's a different question. ;)

The guy said it wasn't possible to climb as support unless you're one of the damage ones like Zyra.

Leona, like most supports, can easily set up kills for their ADC. In low ELO, ADCs don't want their supports kills though. In fact sometimes they don't even want to win. I've had the enemy support stunned against a wall as Poppy at 5% HP just yesterday and my ADC goes after the 100% HP Vayne instead, dying, letting the enemy support get away, and leaving me to 1v1 a Vayne.

Leona can win she just can't carry. For that you need damage

You don't have to carry to climb. You're reverting to anecdotal evidence of individual goofy things that happened to you, when what matters is statistics. If on average you win more than 50% of your games, you'll climb. You can do that as Leona Tank. You do not need to carry, you can win by enabling your team.

I never said that. She can totally and completely climb. I literally only said she cannot carry. I said that because the original comment said she cannot carry and you told him he was wrong, so I tried explaining what he meant by carry.

He's placing way too much emphasis on "carry", which leads to bad attitude. You know, those supports who give up on their ADC once they fail one engage and leave them to rot and go roam? The dream of solo-carrying is something Riot fights against, as they try to make it as team-oriented a game as possible. Unless you're way, way out of your MMR (like a gold 1 in a bronze 5 game), the goal shouldn't be to carry, it should be to help your team win. Particularly as support.

blitz can do just as well, you just have to not be bronze and hook the seju/amumu

Most support can carry a team as long as the team are fairly matched, I was able to carry gfames with thresh which is probably the most team reliant support of the game.

ive picked supp primary mid secondary before and got mid... <.< its not common but it can happen.

Valexfor1 votes

Well once in a thousand games I get my secondary (jungle) but that's something like 00,01% of the games xD. (I also got mid twice as a support primary mid secondary, was so confused >>).

can be worse

my last game, i was offered mid in exchange for jungle but i saw it too late when the guy already first picked aurelion ><

he then fed, bot fed vayne, and even despite i went 22/6/6 kindred (even earned s) we still lost ><

Well, that's just not good. The new client has very non-prominent sounds in champ select. I often have to keep it on the foreground.

Also on another note, does anyone know the 2nd most picked class? So I can use it as my secondary instead?

Supreme Senpai691 votes

Jungle is first picked mid is second picked. They might swap with the assassin changes though. Prepare for seven minute queue times and plenty of dodges

Jungle is first picked? I find that hard to believe considering picking mid would show '20% slower queue' and support would show '50% faster queue'...support cause no one wants to support, and mid because everyone wants to be Faker.

Was a recent change. I don't know if it was elo specific. Either way if it isn't the first it's the second

I just play support when I want mid that badly. Just take Thresh/Blitz/Alistar/Mage supports and have some fun. The only borng supports are Janna and Karma (and Soraka, actually most support mages, imo)

Then you get a free pass to whatever you want.
