Please disable support autofill in Bronze, haven't gotten a competent supp in 10 games or more

Emerald Fang··3 votes·1,129 views

Seriously, unless I'm playing with a premade friend, every single bronze support does not know how to support. They constantly roam out of lane and get caught, they immediately try to invade 2v4, then flame me for not helping when it's clearly a lost fight. They pick mages like Brand when we need a tank, or when the enemy consists of 3 assassins. They are WAY too aggressive or WAY too safe. I would rather wait 2 hours for a queue if I knew I was getting a decent support than this 2 minute autofill bs that causes a lost game before it starts.

"OMG YOURE SO BAD AT ADC JUST GET BETTER" No shit I make mistakes and have a long way to go (i'm in the bottom 8% of players). But having a support that doesn't cooperate is impossible to come back from in bronze where every enemy team is a mage / Zyra (basically a mage) plus Tristana or Caitlyn.

"GET A FRIEND LONER!" I don't always have people to play with. Okay?

you won't get a competent anything in bronze. Focus in improving yourself instead of whatever it is your teammates are doing

That doesn't work when you have to rely on a supp tho. So the answer is, don't play botlane.

Sounds about right tbh. I mean jungle used to be good for this, but now I'd look to midlane.

Well with the impending ADC changes ADC's are going to be the deciders of games. I played mid for a long time and it's even harder to carry because you have to be a second support for bot by roaming so much (especially low ELO where bot needs to snowball fast).

The changes to ADC's are likely to do exactly wheat the set out to; remove earlygame threat while still being a late game carry. They will hit their powerspike about the same time a lot of control mages do, which is a good thing. The downside is with scuttle becoming so huge for junglers, mid/support champions will need to be ready to roam as early as level 1 to help their jungler contest, meaning champions like assassins/roaming supports will be more viable then every, leaving a lot of champions in the wind.

The jungle changes are doing to change a HUGE amount around the lanes, where early kill pressure, waveclear and lane priority will be a deciding factor. It won't just be 1v1, it will be a level 1-2 brawl :P

YOU SO BAD2 votes

I feel the same way 9/10 games about my adc's not understand anything

  1. wave manipulation
  2. trading on levels
  3. when to back.
  4. how to ward.
  5. sharing cannon minions.
  6. being able to farm under tower.
  7. being able to last hit at all.

on and on and on.

And when i play adc i feel the same exact way as you do. My supports have NO clue what they should be doing and often just AFK sit in a bush till they get board and go in and die.

bot lane is just kinda like this at lower elos. neither person understand what the other wants to do and it usually just ends up in a mess.

Starting the same rank game on the same day!

The same kind of losing streak 5 games.

Get a 1 victory and then losing streak.

WHY!

One player stays in B1?

One player stays on B4?

(Can not find the results of other seasons)

Its funny because the purpose of autofill is to put people into roles for faster ques when nobody is queing up for enough positions to balance the rest.

ln bronze support is the LEAST desirable role. Therefore disablimg it there would be the exact opposite of what they invented it for.

Well autofilled bronze supports are causing losses (not all of them, but quite a bit). Sure, nobody wants to support, but autofilling causes sloppy play because they don't want to truly be support.

Although last game I did get a decent supp.
