Supports <3

As a support main, there is nothing I love more than having people say "Thanks!" or "Good job!". Those are the people who I love and they are one of the reasons why I play support. Even when people don't say thank you, When I ask them to buy a pink ward for more vision and they do it, it makes me happy because not only have they created more vision and helped me in warding, but they have also acknowledged me as a support. So I say thank you to all you wonderful people out there who do these kinds of thing <3.

But alas, not all people are like this. There are some people who, for some unknown reason, think support is just a filling position. That supports are useless and are only big wards that roam around and poop little baby wards. For example, Me and vayne were finishing a blue buff for me(nami). Nami, as some of you may know, uses a TON of mana. The ally Zac decides to come and smite steal the blue. When I ask why did he steal it (In a passive aggressive way of course), he replied "Because your'e the (insert bad word here) support. You don't need blue." Now after I explained to him about how much I wanted it because it would help me a lot. After this Zac just calls me names such as "Degenerate support" and "Idiot support". Now I know that I may seem to be just complaining (Which I am sort of) but these people are the reason why people rarely plays support. I know most people aren't like this (I think) and I have encountered more nice people than rude people. But seriously, people are complaining about why there aren't enough supports out there when they're in the game, raging and blaming everything on the support (And jungle. You have my sympathy jungle players <3).

Now I also will note that there ARE supports that go full (female dog) mode. Yes there are these supports. Not all supports are made with sugar, spice, and everything nice. But we do try. All we want to see is a victory at the end of each game and the satisfaction of knowing that we were a valuable asset to the team. So again Thank you to all those lovely people out there who say "GJ" and "Nice". Thank you to all those people who buy a pink ward to help out. Even though you may not realize it, You may be the reason why someone plays support.

While I agree with what you say, this kind of paragraphing just kills any intent to read your post.

I was telling our team to group since i had gotten me and our adc 9 kills to 0 in the first 10 minutes, and as im doing this the mid laner who fed his ass off said "How about you go ward something like a good support?" If you want longer que times, you should start saying that in more of your games. Bonus points if youre being carried by them.

As a support main my favorite thing to hear is "First Blood" and seeing it in blue text.

Isn't this standard practice?

I always type "gj" to my supports and follow most of their calls, even as jungler, if they're good. I also do not flame anyone for being bad unless they start saying shit like "___ useless".

Yes you are right you needed that blue buff more then zac did and he didn't respect you as a support, but may I say that is because you didn't respect him as a jungler ? You know the blue buff is his right? You would be mad if he came and took half ur adcs minion wave right ? Why do you take his blue buff? He didn't steal it you did, actually. All you had to do was ask: may I have that blue buff? I'm M sure he would have given it to you. If it was me not only would I have given it but I would have also leashed you. But it makes me rage when I see losing lanes (or not) waltz in my jungle and take gromp and wolves and even claim the big buffs without asking me. This is the worst thing you can do to your jungler . It's like you are counterjungling him. It's terrible don't do it. Or if u do don't cry if he smites to claim his buff when u were killing it .
