When a role is less popular than support, you know you messed up RIOT...

LIterally noone wants to jungle any more, if I choose first pick Support and second Jungle, i get jungle 100% of the time, plus instant invites.

You realise what that means? People prefere to play as a glorified babysitter who gets no gold, no items, and in most cases has to play a champion that doesnt even count as a full champion without its ADC over playing the current jungle...

Grow a fucking pair. Supports had to deal with far worse with many more responsibilities forever. Picking jungle I still feel like I'm taking a vacation.

A vacation where I'm worried the substitute will burn down the store while I'm away.

That happens when riot gutts a role to the point where it’s only able to impact the game for the first 6 minutes.

Really since everytime I put fill I get adc which sucks since I'm bad at it.

Keep the shitty xp nerf, buff all the fucking camps so they give more gold, and make jg give extra gold per sec. Jg will still be shit or at least be as popular as supp.

Why you think Support has to be the least popular role for it to be right?

Doesn't it being consistently the least popular role for a long time NOT an instance of Riot fuck-up? Or Support being dead last is "just the orders of the universe, bruh?"

Yeah prob this is why human civilisation is doomed to collapse. Because co-existence, collaboration, and corporation are for pussies!

.........

and in most cases has to play a champion that doesnt even count as a full champion without its ADC

Only Yuumi and arguably Soraka. The rest are all able to solo lane; maybe I missed 1 or 2, but you get the point. It's not optimal (unless you're someone like fucking Pyke), but it's certainly doable.

That's not "in most cases [...] doesnt even count as a full champion".

Secondly, that's only if we measure a "full champion" has to be able to solo lane, which seems to be a popular metric for some reason. Guess what, that is false. This is a team game, champs don't have to be able to solo lane to be considered a "full champion"; hence the purpose of "roles" in the first place. Unless you believe medics or combat supports can't be considered soldiers for whatever bizarre reason, which is hilariously wrong.

Not to mention if you really have to go by this rationale, just remember that it is the Support that decides the fate of the bot lane so long the lane partner doesn't just straight up int the lane. But I guess we all just have to shit on supporting because reasons.

Is this thread's real and hidden agenda about "support is just there to be carried"? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
