Bard

Bard mains already know this. BWAHHHHHHHHHHHH

I know this for sure :3 My 90k mastery points in bard agree :3 BWAOUUOUWOAWAWAAHHGHAGHAHGHGW

These last few buffs were exactly what he needed. The extra poke from Thunderlord's Decree rewards you for landing Qs in lane, you have more opportunities to do so with the reduced meep CD, and if you build mixed AP/utility (Frost Queen's Claim, Zeke's Harbinger, Banner of Command), your damage and healing stay relevant into late game. He has incredible health sustain for he and his ADC because shrines are so cost-effective, and comparable mana sustain if you manage your chimes and the Meditation mastery, not to mention the 3 starting biscuits; with proper management of them all, you can stay on the map almost indefinitely to hold the tower in your ADCs absence, assist pushed towers, place Shrines for struggling teammates, and drop deep wards. And don't even get me started on the ganks. With Thunderlord's Decree, Ignite, and 2 meeps (at just 15 Chimes), you have the CC and burst damage to viably gank the mid laner or even the jungler; even better if you can bring your jungler. And since you can leave Shrines, a gank is never completely wasted. All of this mobility is made possible by efficient Chime routes and portal placement, which can potentially halve your traveling time.

But let me take a breath. Bard just finally feels like a roaming support. It's awesome.

Well shit after his atrocious release he deserves all that and more.

he's probably too strong, the recent buffs weren't necessary

probably the best support design in the game though

I'm still trying to figure the guy out, though I've been doing well. But, what in the 7 Dongers do I build on the guy? AP? Tanky items? Aura and actives?

Brad, the wonderful car taker, is secretly the best champion in lol.

Shhhhhh.

It's a secret.
