So my playstyle finally created a meta? (Heal on supports)

So i started playing at around the end of season 2 and every single game since, i had taken heal except when i have to play jungle (used to main mid but now its support)

But now we look at the most recent seasons where adc takes heal instead of barrier Usually me taking heal as support always ends up in "WTF support no exhaust" or "FF@20 bot lane double heal" But i didnt care cause heal is the sum i always take no matter what

i managed to get my friends when they adc to take barrier while i take heal and it ends up noticably more efficient than having exhaust or something Now its whenever i play janna support i take heal and barrier while adc takes barrier and that ends up heaps better because the enemy team doesnt know how to react, also means you can end up taking a lot more damage than them Also with all the heal and shield power and winspeakers blessing, heal is far more powerful and barrier shields a lot more

Today my friend tells me about this video and how heal is better taken on supports which is what ive pretty much been doing for as long as i can remember

I've been doing this for years and been called stupid or **** but now what i'm doing is known as "what the pros do"

Well i guess what i've been doing is now a meta which i can look at as what i created

You didn't create anything, this would've been garbage in several seasons past, this is only good NOW because of windspeakers + healing increasing items + ardent being so good with the summoner spell heal that it makes it worth it for the support to take heal instead

The only other time before this season for the support to have taken heal was back in patch 4.5 when Riot broke it with several buffs, most notably the removal of the stacking reduction penalty and making it remove grievous wounds, this was when double heal botlane became meta until it was later nerfed
