Kleptomancy + Medallion is the new support Meta if they don't nerf it
https://i.imgur.com/aqG7pXG.png https://vividechoes.imgur.com/all/ So i go straight to the point, the new support meta is on the rise. And it's as broken as Ardent censer in my opinion. From the 5 games you see i will briefly explain how they went. Early game: If you are a support with a shield this is great because you shield yourself and poke as much as you can in order to proc your Kleptomancy. Worried about HP? Don't worry because there is a huge chance an HP potion to drop from the rune and you will also get a cookie every 3 min until 12 min. Only thing you should worry about is mana but if you get a couple of mana potions, and you willl get at least one, trust me, you should back only to get items. And the funny thing is i caught myself that sometimes i overextend and take a little bit of dmg only just to proc my rune. And do i care? No, because i have 20 potions in my inventory! Early to mid: You get mobi boots and upgrade your medallion and you run around warding every bush there is while enemy team support(if he doesnt't use Kleptomancy) barely had enough gold to buy Boots and a Control ward.The moment laning phase ends in most cases is when you get enough gold for Redemption. Mid game:With 3 items already, Mobility boots, Redemption and Eye of the osasis(Nomad's upgrade), you start roaming like crazy, warding everywhere and saving each one of your team's asses. Game usually ends when you get Ardent and Locket. This is when your team becomes unkillable entirely bacause of you. And you manage to get those 5 items usually around lvl 14, although this one game i managed to get full build at lvl 14. FULL BUILD AT LVL 14! This is why i don't even consider writing about late game. The thing is many people think that with this rune you don't have enough dmg and it's more of a safe rune to take. This is completely wrong. You start with a good laning phase with a lot of sustain and scale into this utility beast which can't be stopped. If your adc isn't complete garbage you WILL WIN your lane. Trust me i still haven't played against support with kleptomancy but god help me the first time i come across this. I am sure either Kleptomancy or Medallion will get nerfes. I hope Kleptomancy remains viable because it's such a fun rune. I love the things Riot are recently doing implementing this RNG factor into the game.(The new cahmpion Zoe is also an example of this) But still this will surely need balancing.
taking Guardian is a nightmare.
