Support mains

SØülSeeker··1 votes·637 views

Hey!

Gold V support main here, looking for a little help. Whenever I get in a game, I have no idea what to buy as a support, and it makes me really sad... It's not matter how hard I think, cause all i can get is boots, support item, sightstone, and pick 3 items out of the 100 that're in the game..

So, if there's a chance, can anyone help me with itemizing to make my supporting go to the full potentional?

Usually support items I go are (GP5 item relevant to my champ) -> item 2049 -> upgraded GP5 item -> item 1001 -> depends on your enemy comp If im behind or have to back early, ill usually get item 2044 item 2043 item 2003 item 2004 and item 1028 if i have enough gold

There's a few basic items that any support can go for in most situations.

item 3105 item 3110 item 3364

Upgrade that Sweeper to an Oracles, try to keep a Pink out on the field and/or on you, and build Aegis and/or Frozen Heart depending on the enemy comp. Aegis usually builds into Locket (the shield even works against AD), but if you want to slow push top/bottom or halt the split pushing of an AP champ you can get Banner. Most games won't progress much farther for you to build more, but past that it's probably champion specific.

Engage tank supports may pick up item 3800 too.

And what about and what about micheal I am yet to encounter a game that I said In yes I need that item

Yes if you need it. I personally don't use it often because the CD is so long, but if the enemy is relying on one stun to take out your carry (like landing a Morg binding) then it can turn the fight in your favor every 3 minutes and be worth it. It's totally dependent on what the enemy is using and if you can react and use it (if you wait for 80% of the stun to pass before using it, may as well not buy it).
