Additional End Game Stats For Supports!

Mira Arya Enthe··58 votes·1,828 views

I feel we should have an "Effective Shielding" stat alongside healing and damage. This would only display the amount of damage that was dealt to the shields, it would not just display the total shielding they placed.

So if I am Lulu and shield for 300, and my ally takes 175 damage on that shield. That is 175 effective shielding.

This would help supports out. As when playing some supports like Lulu, Janna, Lux and Morgana, it is hard to tell how much you 'helped out' because unlike Soraka you cannot say "I did 40,000 healing this game!" Whereas sometimes Janna or Lulu hit the end screen, and because they are low damage and are heavily shield and buff champions, they look pathetic.

Another one for supports I thought of was "Damage Shared" This would be for things like Pix and Leona's Sunlight, or Janna's AD buff.

Just some thoughts. What do you think?

I would like to see this too, but I don't want to ignore tankier, CC supports. I want to see how many times I have CC'd Yi with my Q. I want to know how much time I have collectively kept the enemy team stunned, slowed, or eaten, and I really want to see how much damage I have stopped with Taric's ult.

As somebody who plays Leona I think a CC counter would be hilarious!

Correction: counter.

CC counter would be awesome. How many stuns landed. It would be cool ofr champs like ashe too so they can show how many arrows they hit in a game

Time spent cc'd? That would be a interesting stat, I'd love to know how long I was cc'd with a Caitlyn, Naut, Morg, Irelia, and Amumu comp, but I think they'd have to make the scale in hours or maybe even days.

The main problem that's been cited with this is that the presence of Rylais and to a lesser extent Frozen Mallet completely skews the numbers. For example, Malzahar would have extremely high numbers from his space AIDS and his Voidlings, despite only minimally slowing people.

nah, just count hard cc. problem solved.

JVP153 votes

Actually, I kinda want to see slows as well, but in a different stat. I actually made a thread about this that talked about every little nuance for the new support based statistics.

Keira Helsh7 votes

Yeah seriously, every Lulu game I play is spent buffing my ADC and I never get to actually see how much that helped by the end of the game. XD

I think this would work towards rewarding the playstyle that Riot has been endorsing all these years as well (shielding and preemptive mitigation > healing).

Great suggestions! But you should put these in the Alpha Client Discussion board. Anything that has to do with the new client is more likely to be seen by the right people there.

Sounds great! Just post it there as you please. I don't care too much who suggests it. It is something our dear supports need, and in general would help the game stat quality.

Apparently someone else has posted a gigantic thread including the stat you suggested; I would like to help you though.

As a shield build Taric main I couldn't agree more

Whenever I play urgot I always wonder how much damage I prevent with his passive over the course of the game.

this would be a nice addition for supports considering all the other roles get to see how much they contributed to the game

Yes! I don't mains support anymore, but I understand supports and adore them. I am a Shyvana main who plays some Ashe, Riven and Malz. But supports could always use more love.

I mean it would also help non-supports, such as Lux Mid or Riven shields. But I feel it would mostly help shield heavy supports and those who share damage with their allies. It would also overall help with tracking what champions do in a game.

VoidStaresBack2 votes

I can agree with this, regardless of champion this would be cool to see, since all my supports either have shields in their kits or I build Locket on them for the team-shield.

Hows this help Annie support?? Dumb idea

Dumb response. It's not all about Annie, so many supports have shields and buffs.

Pet kills. Also works for Morde, Malz, Zyra, Yorick, etc.

not sure why the downvotes? thought this was a joke.

I totally agree with this! As I Janna all the time! would love to see something like this implemented

FillyPhlyerz2 votes

I think they should just take a page out of Overwatch's book and a have a few champion specific stats just for you at the end of the game. For Morgana, for instance: Bindings landed Damaged mitigated by Black Shield Enemies successfully tethered with Soul Shackles (or whatever R is called) Total duration enemies stunned

i think another good stat to add would be CC which basically calculates how many times you hit enemy champs with cc items/abilities

Cookimonster3162 votes

This would not be able to count slows then because... well... item 3116 + Azir grats azir on getting 150 slows this game

GrReaper961 votes

I was gonna agree but then i saw your reason was so you could brag to your teammates how much shielding you did so i disagree

Requiemsfire2 votes

People already brag about how much damage they did and how many kills they got, so why not shielding?

Tanks, ADCs, and bruisers would end up having that stat higher than that of supports, if anything.

I don't see the point of that, other than whiny support "mains" believing that they "don't get enough praise".

DepressedAhri1 votes

I'm not even a support main, but supports really don't get enough praise. Supports are the most downlooked role in the game. ADC died? Your fault. Mid died? Your fault. No vision? Your fault. Jungler gank was bad? Your fault. Got counterganked? Your fault.

I've complemented supports before and they thought I was being sarcastic and trolling them, and I've been complemented when playing support and it was like "Wait... people do that?"

Supports are extremely underrated, and one of the reasons very well might be because of the lack of stats shown in the end game screen.
