Here's how it works with bot lane as a support. You die=your fault. Your ADC dies=your fault Your jungle comes down and dies=your fault and ADC occasionally. On top of all that "you're not warding enough" "you're not peeling hard enough" "you're playing too passive" "you're playing too aggressive". it's all NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG NAG and tbh it's unbanworthy harassment.
Gives No Lux3 votesPick Zyra. Carry game. Use your ADC as bait.
DODGEORLOSE1 votesThis was me in season 5-6. I switched to brand, then to the ardents. Brand doesn't need bait. :^)
Pandemic Punch2 votesYou do it by taking command. Tell them how they are about to die. After you get proven right 10 times in a row, you start calling the shots. :-)
DODGEORLOSE1 votesThey don't look at the map usually, so they just think we are wizards.
Pandemic Punch1 votesHahahahahahahahaha!!! Exactly! You know what's up!!
DODGEORLOSE3 votesHell yeah! Being decent at the game is nice because people think I know what I'm doing when in reality I am just running around pretending I'm challenger.
Pandemic Punch1 votes100%
DODGEORLOSE1 votesI don't get flamed for anything ever because I mute people the moment they even start looking like they are going to be passive aggressive.
Ralanr1 votesYou tune it out and press forward towards winning.
It’s like being a mother out shopping with a kid who is rolling on the ground demanding a chocolate bar. Sure it’s embarrassing, but you’re only encouraging that behavior by giving them what they want.
If I’m supporting and they tell me I’m doing bad, I just say, “Sorry” and move on.
FooDang1 votesHmmm wierd. I rarely get flamed as support even if I feed a little. Unless you are making bad plays most people wont flame you.
Almo1 votesNo Flame here. The most important thing is you love to support and you do it because you enjoy it. If you did a mistake point it out, helps you realize you did something wrong.
I do sometimes get flamed but that's really rare.
IvernBramblefoot1 votesI stopped being a support bot lane and became a support jungler. less nagging, more I can do to help.
Asura Gonza1 votesi just play supp botlane. Muting the adc right at the start of the game does wonders.

DODGEORLOSE1 votes"I pinged him to run because we saw their jungler on the map. He died anyway."
PhearBunny1 votesI just mute junglers who think they could go all in when we have a bot lane that has no way to engage, and their a jungler with no engage(Like a Kayn for example). Like, sure dude come down to put some pressure if u want but don't go all in. Theres no gank potential whatsoever.
Poop Jelly1 votesDon't mind them they just need someone to point finger to release frustration. Perform your best and switch target to support mid or top if you can't work along side with your adc.
^Seriously, I never liked this ADC focus bs but just because I'm a support doesn't mean my life is bound to my adc and my adc only. You might do better if you acquire a better partnership with other lanes and not going in tilt mode.
FOR JUSTICE1 votesStep 1: /mute
PROFIT
Joking aside though, i find it best to de tilt them to take the blame for something that clearly wasnt my fault in an effort to get them to stfu and play. But luckily i dont have to resort to this often
Once laning phase is over you can go ahead and screw the ADC though considering now you support the entire team, not just the one guy who demands all the farm, technically KS, yet says he/she carried. But if the jungler is nearby, ping them back, therefore they can't say you didn't warn them. If they disagree, just reply in chat the timestamp of your warning
