Tell me about the high elo's papa, is the rift paved with gold?

Just a question from a support main. In the High ELOs, does top/mid/jungle pick a tank each game, or do they still saddle the support with that role, in addition to everything else we do for a team attempting to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?

people pick whatever they want. you've got one tricks, people with small champ pools, people who randomly first time stuff. it doesn't go away, even in the higher divisions of diamond.

depends on pick order (last ones pick tank, or lose) , and whether lane enemies specific counters are tanks.

Just based on my info of watching high elo streams, everything up until high challenger is a clown fiesta, and the game is decided by who gets the most boosted/bad players

it's not boosted/bad players, it's basically how many people you get on main roles. like if I go against a guy top who doesn't main the role I can probably repeatedly kill him until he afks, but against an actual top main i'll never kill them.

Support mains ftw

There are very few tank mids. Cho and Galio, neither of which are really that good in the role, are the only two I can think of.

Vladimir has been picked mid a lot.

I wouldn't call vlad a tank. Tanky or offtank perhaps, but not really a tank. He's more of an ap bruiser.

Play Karma Support with item 3504 and have a shield no one can get through.
