I can't decide which role to play.

I'm trying to decide which role to play in ranked this preseason and for the next season. I really like jungle udyr right now and vlad mid, but I also like leona/soraka support. Too bad my fav champ wukong still gets fucked by most champs top. Woulda make the decision easier. The problem is when you put support on primary or secondary role, most of the time you still get support. Thus you just opt out of putting supp anywhere. That's prolly a big issue of lacking support players. Idk what to put in the role selection jung/mid, jung/supp or what.. Any suggestions ?

You can take Wukong jungler as well, so I'd try that at some point.

You want to be able to play multiple champs in each role you're planning on queueing into in case they get banned our nerfed. I'd recommend trying other junglers, supports, and mid laners to see if there are others you like.

Nah, it's not the case anymore. I spent the last couple months queueing Top/Sup and still got Top around 60~70% of the time. That was the case earlier in the season, but it has much improved recently.

Did you try Wukong jungle? I find it super strong.

And for your original question, I suggest queueing for Jung/Sup. I think it's the two roles with the most overlap between skills needed (map awareness, vision control, understanding the value of objectives, etc.) so getting good at one is helping you getting good at the other.
