Yuumi feels like the only true support

Kuponya·Dec 4, 2019·7 votes·1,861 views

Every other "support" basically does their own thing and you have to react to capitalize on it. With Yuumi supporting you, you are the one essentially in charge of every thing, she just augments how you do it.

That being said, talking about Yuumi, I don't think her untargetability is an issue. The problem is that too many unskilled players are not used to the concept of games having different elements, they would prefer to play "their own game" rather than the game that they are actually in.

Stares in:

Bard Braum Janna Leona Lulu Nami Sona Soraka Taric Thresh

Yeah she's the only CC heavy support, based in utility, with shit ratios and has to know and understand zoning, trading, and know how to shift lane control that relies on their adc to thrive

Pretty sure I answered all the questions regarding those in my initial post. Those champions are considered supports, but they generally do their own thing and set their own rhythm. Let's take Soraka for example, yes she heals you and silences, but what good is a silence if you cannot respond appropriately to take advantage of that? Soraka plays to her own tune, not to yours like Yuumi does.

To OP, I feel like there are other real supports, but they're not popular. Too many support mains now, esp. in the lower brackets (plat and below), are just people who wanna leech kills off their ADC but are too afraid to solo lane. They only play Supports with hooks, or supports who don't heal or barely cc and just do high damage or have some cheap mechanic(s) like Pyke.

The real supports aren't played because they're not cheap, easy with massive reward, or broken....they require you to actually SUPPORT and work WITH your laner.....something too many supports don't wanna do.

Pyke and Senna exist for those chuckleknucks that do things their own way

Totes with you though they dont know a lick about keeping an eye on the adc and letting them take the spotlight stead of you as a support playing lead actor all the time

Senna should get nerf in numbers. 50 or so movementspeed and 20+ AD boost on fkin early levels from something that has probably as short CD as is its own duration which equals to perma boost is sh;t, non debatable sh;t especially on someone who has bigger range than others and bigger heals than vlad has on his early if you accidentally touched her which means sh;t is you don't kill her right away on all in (-_-) ( I'm glad that Im top/jg main :-) ).

Don't you compare to Senna to that gross thing that goes by the name of Pyke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very few supports just 'do their own thing'

Rakan can because of his mobility Thresh can if he decides to go with damage Bard Alistar Thresh Leona Nautilus Rakan Senna Pyke can because they have good roams

but saying yuumi is the one true support is heresy Morgana Janna Soraka Lulu Nami Lux Karma are all capable of being a dynamic support Just because Yuumi can just decide to sit attached to someone so she herself doesn't have to position properly doesn't mean shes better than anything at all

~~Probably because Yuumi is gutter tier right now too~~
