I main support in ranked play and every game we win the lane phase hard. But yet somewhere down the line as we enter into team fighting phase we win some of the fights but the team breaks down and then we lose. I cant carry as a support and im simply implying that supports should be given some sort of way to where they don't fall in the ranks cause honestly im beginning to stop playing this game more and more with each time I get livid and give up on my team at the final 2 fights when they decide to focus mundo -_- Help me out here or tell me if there is anything I can doooooooo

The problem is not that supports "can't carry". The problem is that supports can't carry in the way that you want them to. It's the job of the support to carry the Marksmen through the laning phase, and to set up plays (including engages, disengages, peeling, etc) for the Marksman and team throughout the game. This is a very vital role as you determine how much room your Marksman has to contribute to the team.

If your team as a whole (you included) have poor execution of your roles in a team fight, then the results will generally fall against your favor regardless of what role you have, as this is a team-based game.

No roles should receive preferential treatment for ranking. If you're team can't appropriately focus in team fights, then all of you aren't communicating enough, and all of you earned that loss through that. Try duo-queuing with someone that has good teamfight sense and prioritizing. But if you're expecting some sort of magical solution where the rest of your team loses LP but you don't because "you're the support and supports can't carry", expect disappointment, because that won't happen.

I don't think were going to have to worry anymore cause im 1 more game away from flipping and being banned from feeding everyone. Im just done with this game cause people are ignorant in lane phase and it pisses me off cause I try to be nice and help out but when they start to blame me, I just now say screw it and really make it my fault then. So i do hope noone gets on a team with me cause now I just don't care to throw anymore. Point being, if you start to blame someone on your team, ecpect them to really either do worse or throw. so gg wp riot. I blame the community
