And yet, you still try to 1v5 them. Great job, Vayne .

Soraka Best part is, I'm still going to get blamed for letting you die.

Well it's your fault for not pinging 100 times.

Try not using Soraka. >_>

The idea is more of supports are blamed for almost everything their ADC does. It's our fault they turret dove with no health, it's our fault they can't last hit, ect.

Also Raka is a good counter to Karthus since her ult will usually out heal the damage he does with his.

Yea, and I've had a good deal of supports piss me the hell off just as much as I've had adcs that have. At this point, I've had more supports that can't/don't ward, steal kills, jump in for stupid plays expecting me to follow, and feed more than I've had an adc blame/flame me out of turn. I main both roles. All this one-sided adc shaming is ridiculous when supports can be even worse.

The worst my adcs tend to do is not build a scrying orb unless they're truly short bus material.

Side note: So Soraka counters Karthus. It's a good thing Karthus is so not common at all. Her laning phase is too easy to shit on if you can dodge and poke her down. That's the problem with Soraka.

Ariel the CruelJun 28, 20151 votes

I main support and can't ADC to save my life. (I can barely scrape by with Cait and Sivir most games. You know, the easy ones.)

So, I'm probably a bit biased.

Also, The post was intended more to be humorous. I specifically chose Vayne because she has a reputation for bad players going HAM with her and failing miserably; and Soraka because she can't peel a 1v5 (others like Braum, Janna, and Sona actually can with a bit of luck).

Depends, early game easily. A Karthus ult only deals like 200 damage at rank 1, while Soraka's ult heals for 350 I believe

But late game, the heal will only be enough to save the person who would have died, Its unlikely to counter the full damage. Since a Karthus ult when he's near full build can deal up to 1000 damage. More if he's fed.

Ariel the CruelJun 28, 20151 votes

Raka can still almost nullify his ult with equal build. Probalem is, you can't do it on a support budget. Especially since at least 2 of your items are going to but low-stat support items.

mabye just as far as ults go- but as far as over all game i find soraka incredibly easy to lane aginst in most cases so your trading one counter ult for a weak lane. Not really a great decision when you could get someone with a decent shield or heal to essentialy do they same thing. Janna, thresh , leona, lulu , aliistair all better options really. Raka is more like an easy mode support for people to learn the role before moving on to better ones.

Ariel the CruelJun 28, 20151 votes

A well played Soraka has the same target priority as a fed ADC. She's easy mode in the sense that she has probably the lowest skill floor among supports.

But a large part of her play is landing those long-range Q's. . . .Which move at the lightning speed of a Nautilus.

Yxgl222HaXJun 28, 20151 votes

well she may have decent heals yes- but her weaknesses are much to large to really gain in popularity like some of these other supports- much lower general cc (one silence/root) so your team fight lock down already suffers, no real tank stats and even building armour it wouldent be comparable to like a braum, leona, ect. No real team disengage (a coin only goes so far) and lack of built in escapes. If your flash is down suddenly playing aggressive at all in lane becomes a bad idea. It would only take one decent gank while youre pushed and suddenly your lane is behind. Unlike champions like janna, with her q's , alistair with knock backs, ect. Its just alot easier to lock her down. Don't get me wrong she is fun to play and defiantly not a "bad" champion- i just think that she lacks alot of elements that are really key to winning team fights considering the meta is currently tanks making it alot harder to lock down any good targets. That being said- in solo que she is probably fine its only really in team 5's and premades that you have to put that much thought into it because odds are even if you want to synergize getting solo que lobbys to work together is tough.

little tip, your pinging distracts. don't use excessively in tense spots.

Lol. I hate people like that. Also, if you actually have a problem with it and this isn't 100% a joke, just mute pings. It'll be funny when they keep wasting their time spamming pings.

RissqJun 27, 201513 votes

If you ping me more than twice within one second I will literally go out of my way to do the opposite of what you're asking me to do.

DrukyulJun 27, 20152 votes

exactly this

DownfallJun 27, 20151 votes

I hate that I do this too, like i know its an awful idea but the pings are so redundant that i just want to show that person who they're dealing with.

Tis a nice dayJun 27, 20151 votes

Sometimes I require multiple pings to indicate which direction an enemy is going, rather than indicating an enemy is simply in the vicinity. More than 3 is unnecessary though.

dr lichdeathJun 27, 20151 votes

so basicly if 3 people actually only ping once 1 less than a sec to prevent suicide u will suicede after all?

Ariel the CruelJun 28, 20151 votes

When jungleing, I will often ping the route I'm taking to gank. That way you can get set up while I'm en route.

There needs to be a ping limit... Some people get way out of hand.

there is a ping limit .-. if u do keep over using pings to the point where you can't ping for like 10 seconds, after that happens to you like 20 times, you can't ping for like 100 seconds.

Oh! I remember that movie!

7 FiresJun 27, 20151 votes

And then they go to try and steal Baron off the 5 guys getting it, even though they pinged that it's dangerous (looking at you Renekton ).

Good thing Riot made the ping limiter, really helped to decrease the spam.

Vistha KaiJun 27, 20151 votes

When that happens to me, I stop in place, go to options, mute ping sounds, then go to the player list and mute everybody, then move the chat out of the screen.

Even if I will die.

Screw those people, srsly.
