The /dev: State of the game "Looking at support" mention should be more of, "Supporting matters."
Right, so I originally put this in Gameplay section here on the boards because i'm tired as a support of being called useless and the easiest role, etc. The typical stigma support mains get. When in reality most of the time we're the reasons that teamfights go the ways they do or help somebody sustain or... Yknow what. Etc... The list goes on.
I think if you guys are taking game play criticism into account I think you guys should keep adding items in based for support, like an allied magic resist aura? (Cough cough) But maybe it's the league i'm in that I don't get noticed for the constant shielding or the heal from a redemptioin and it's just expected from me. Really no clue, so if you're a higher elo and give supports credits they deserve really pay no mind to this. But if you guys have any ideas, suggestions for items they could put in to really give that, "Hey support nice play or holy shit this support god" type of encouragement go for it. That's really why i'm posting this.
