Or as support in general.

After the laning phase is over, you don't need me anymore. We're not butt buddies. I'm the team's support so please let me do my job.

I'm actually really digging bard right now. Just when you go to roam:

  1. Make sure your lamer isn't pushing the wave (edit: was going to fix typo. realized it was appropriate)
  2. Leave a shrine or 2 for your laner
  3. Put down a ward before you leave
  4. Always put a shrine near jungle camps for jg, or in midlane for your midlaner
  5. Gank if you can

Basically the idea is to never roam selfishly. Always be helping your team.

With that said...........yes, this gif is appropriate XD

i loathe Bard, and you're using Firefly to try to convince me otherwise. I hate you.

There very few opportunities that Support should really roam, which is why nobody likes Bard

Pretty much the only times to roam are: -ADC is back -For some reason the enemy bot lane sucks ass and your ADC can 2v1 -You're trolling

Most bard players roam at the wrong times or roam to stupid places (enemy jg etc.).

Not to mention his winrate is inexcusable. The only time I ever see a decent bard is when he is on the enemy team, and even then they are rare.

Then again I dodge when I see bard lol. Not the player's fault, just that bard is in a very bad place right now.

when low elos yell at you for roaming* Thats what this title is.

You get to higher elo and all you get is "thanks" "GJ XXX" then you go to another lane and gank that with jungler or just go back to bot while you drop wards on your way back down. Simple really.

Any moron could do this.

Dude , mute is your friend. Ive honestly come to the point where if i see arguments pre-game chat i just mute the whole team and answer to pongs only. This community is toxic and people rage over small things.

Bard .................................

Well, you actually dont roam as much as people probably think you do as Bard and majority of the time people roam at the wrong times. If both sides are just farming, don't leave. You may not know it, but your presence, Bard, is what is stopping them from just jumping on your ADC due to your incredible 2v2 performance. Leave when literally nothing is happening or your ADC is in a spot to where it would take a jungler gank to kill them (AKA Tower). Also be sure to leave behind shrines for your ADC. Finally, I must say this! 70% of the time, in Solo Q, you will not need your E as Bard until Levels 7-9. Meaning you probably should focus on leveling your Q and W for increased laning presence.

your E is useful for the 5th chime. So at level 3. You need chimes for mana or else you're doing something wrong (not using your skills as much as you could)

Leaving your ADC when he is at the tower is the worst time ever. Because it means you leave a large wave of minions and you'll miss the exp. OR you miss a small wave of minions and that mean you don't manage the wave momentum yet. And it still wrong.
