PSA: Playing like a carry when you're support against a support main will wreck your lane.

You figure, "Ill just que up in support for a fast que, build (insert mage here) full AP and carry! YEAH!"

Maybe.

Probably what will happen is an average support main, and average jungler will stomp on you and shake you like a bag of free money.

What some people dont get is that the "off meta" stuff that is used in bot lane that works, is stuff used by support mains cause they know how the lane works. Not some flavor of the month kiddie that hops onto a champ and fires up support primary as their que. The basis of successful off meta supporting is STILL supporting.

I consider myself primarily a support main, and have expressed my sympathies to many an enemy team about their "support" several times. Lux, Brand supports tend to be the worst offenders because people just think its some secret OP ez mode stuff. First, any ADC thats seen it a couple times often ceases to be troubled by Brand support. Second, a support main often isnt troubled by it at all. Third, if you dont build a sight stone, ESPECIALLY in this meta where everyone and their dog is trying to shit on bot lane... you will suffer for it. Also any jg that has seen it before will be double trying to shit on bot lane to shut down TWO CARRIES in one lane. This will be very effective because the full AP no vision support mage wont have any significant utility to fall back on. To get the most out of their kit they will have to be near the front line trying to do damage... damage they wont have cause they shared gold with a marksman and possible got shut down from no vision.

I get that many people find support boring, but some of you need to decide if you find supporting or losing more boring. Going to the bot lane without knowing it as well as a support main just means youre gambling your hopes on a gimmick to get you through... and that gimmick only really works if you both know your champion well, and how to support.

Best advice, wait the extra minute for the mid lane queue time, and hope you get a real support to increase your chances dramatically in that lane.

TL;DR: Off meta supporting is still supporting, learn to support or youre a burden to the lane and will probably get stomped by a real support.
