Riot weakening the laning power of adc to make support mains feel better about themselves?????

Woook3r··2 votes·549 views

Lets look at the truth of the matter. Supports are fucking useless outside of lane. Unless they are actually "supports", which means that they are midlaners who picked secondary fill instead.

There is only one thing in this game that really matters. Dmg and utility that you cant play against. So soraka. Fucking janna. Thats the utility you cant do anything about (untill you get in plat and people start picking up executioners for the GW). If you arent picking those two supports then you are picking something with dmg. Because dmg carries the game. Its so fucking simple. Why is riot trying to keep this shit in the game. Supports are NOT healthy. Certain people just cant accept it because self sacrifice and pacifism "have" to have a place in this game.

Until riot accepts it, adc's are never going to be happy and we are going to see obnoxious champion releases like bard (who is now a kill lane support) and the abomination Ivern which will be buffed into the fucking stratosphere. And this is all to pander to a few headcases that get off on carrying by proxy. Ie the support lulu and braum mains.

Goddamn it if every good support right now isnt just an annoying piece of shit you cant play against in lane. Riot will never make adc support healthy because they believe that supports deserve to carry the game too and the fact is that a role which activly forgoes taking gold and cs should NOT be able to carry. the game is about RESOURCES and HOW are the RESOURCELESS champions doing ANYTHING to carry is BEYOND BROKEN

You have not been blown by janna enough to know the power of supports.

Shes utility you cant play against. Her r is the most overpowered thing in the game. And then it heals your team.

Im not smokiing anything. I will go down your list and show you every support in that list is either dmg, or semi broken. Except for nami and lulu. I dont really think they are that bad. But im in silver and I dont see good nami players.

Shen is a terrible support. SHouldnt even be in the lsit much less in first place. What are YOU smoking and why didnt you list nautlus instead?

Nautilus btw, completely lacks counterplay and has an ASS ton of dmg for no fucking reason. His combo is guaranteed to deal 50%+ of the adc's hp at most points in the game. And then his dps will finish them UNLESS someone else peels him for the adc OR the adc is stupidly far ahead. He can 1v1 an adc with ease and you cant, I repeat, CANT kite him. LIke at all. Its impossible. His ult will wreck you and his shield garuntees you cant dmg him until the ult hits you and you are knocked into air for .5 seconds and then stuned for another 1 second. And then you get hooked. And rooted. And slowed. He has every form of cc except for a silence.

Thresh: You cant play against dark passage. This ability is really strong and there is NOTHING enemy team can do about it. If thresh didnt have this ability he wouldnt be a good support, IMO because he couldnt save you from a gank.

You cant out trade nami, but I think she is probably almost ok with me. Almost. I never see good nami's in my elo and I dont kknow how she is frustrating.

Bard was buffed until he became a kill lane support. Thats because his kit is fucking stupid and he was useless until they inflated his numbers. The heal shines are garbage/broken i suppose. Or else they would have buffed the shrines and not his dmg which is fucking ridiculous.

Karma is dmg and very little else..Shes a q bot. Why is she on your list?

Leona is either complete shit or frustratingly broken just like alistare. She is a feast or famine support. As if that made any fucking sense. She doesnt farm gold!

Tahm kench had broken dmg and still has his broken devour. You cant play against devour. If anything, its worse for the game than a vi ult which you REALLY couldnt do anything about. Sadly, he is also a really fun support to play with in lane because it allows the adc to actually DO something because after Tahm nahms them, they dont take any dmg.

Zyra is a rcs and spooky ghost bot + some dmg that matters to tanks.

In summation. Every support is either dmg or has some kind of BULLSHIT that you cant play against. There arent any supports that are fun to play against in bot lane. Its just an unfair role. Its unfair to the community who time and time again shows that they dont like the role. And its unfair to people playing adc because we dont get to win lane based on our own merits. I really feel like all i can do is fuck laning phase up. Thats it. All of my dmg draws minion aggro and most supports can 1v1 me with 0 CS if they have half a brain.

This rant brought to you by an adc main.

Plenty of people enjoy the role and have no issue going against it. The role isn't going anywhere so get the venting out of your system now.
