When you play support; it's a bit awkward killing the enemy with your crowd control, when you're just attempting to leave them vulnerable for your carry. But on the other hand, it's a secured kill :D
So true...or when you secure kills trying to heal with Nami.
For a moment I was thinking, "you can kill someone with a heal? Did/does she have a similar bug to nidalee?" Then I remembered her 'ebb & flow' ability XD
The other day I got first blood as leona, tried to stun the enemy carry before they flashed away; my carry's auto attack hit them first, lowering them just enough ^^; Strangely though, I rarely have this problem with blitzcrank, but I frequently do as thresh, go figure (shrug).
Yep! "WTF, Nami, KS!" ...Uh, you were about to die. It's all I got.
Also, "Ooh, when this bubble lands, one more autoattack from MF should finish them!" bubble is in the air, MF attacks before it lands, gets mad at me >.> Last hitting skills apply to champions, too, Ms. ADC. <3
I still love my Nami, though. I hope the preseason changes to gold items and Sightstone will make support more rewarding.
Hehehehe, yeah my last hitting minions is pretty bad ( and why I avoid playing carry XD ), so I either get the spelltheif edge or ancient coin for gold income. Though I'm hoping they get a buff too, upgrading them rarely feels like you're making enough of a profit to keep up :/ It's part of why I play mechanical heavy champions so I can still contribute even if behind ^^;
Same. I'm so bad at CSing with early autoattacks. Especially with Kalista (90% autoattacks, WTF, Riot?). I use AD marks (and Arcane Blade mastery) when I play mid, just to make it easier.
In the long run, Frostfang pays off, but you need to trigger it 100 times (16 minutes 40 seconds minimum) to break even after building it, so it can be a bit of a gold sink in the early game, if you're trying to rush Sightstone or something. If you're not building FQC, it's not even worth the upgrade. I would LOVE to see upgraded gold items give extra gold for assists. Supports are just too gold-starved right now, and it's causing tank supports (and especially Thresh, since he doesn't need a lot of gold to get strong and durable) to edge out all the others.
I used to play top more often, but traded blows instead of idly farmed.
But running support, I can't stand the relic shield because it scales off of your level; if you fall behind it becomes painfully precise to get the execute, but if you're ahead you instakill the minion. Though the face-of-the-mountain item has a good active for tanky supports, the caster supports like sona & lux may as well not even bother since they have such low health pools. However I rarely even get the relic shield let alone upgrade fully, because once everyone starts roaming (teamfights & hopefully objectives), it becomes impossible to use any of it's stacks since the; assassin & mage & carry wave clear everything before you can use any charges. So I either go with the coin if I'm a defensive support (nautilus or alistar), or the spelltheif edge if I'm a caster (sona & lux); both are easier to use but take significantly longer just to break even. Granted supports have more gold than they used to in the first & second season, but they still fall behind the fastest on the team without gold :/
Yeah, it's pretty frustrating when the Rek'Sai jungler uses Furious Bite to one-shot the cannon minion even though you have a charge on FotM. I still like Relic Shield more than Ancient Coin, because of the extra health and the fact that it gives the ADC some sustain, too. It also helps clear waves if your lane is getting pushed hard. It's nice when allies notice the little motes floating around you and let you actually use it. XD
Probably because as thresh your charged auto does a ton of damage to no one with mr or armor.
Yeah, I forget about that during the excitement, opps.
When I saw the actual amount of damage it cand do with ad, that's all I build in aram if I get thresh....2 shot a katarina that dives you.
A maw of malmortus is quite handy for him in aram, no one expects the backup shield XD
When my adc backed off from going for the kill.. I've flashed for first blood with taric.. Also it happens kinda often.. when your adc and their support keep fighting on top of you and you're leona..but then..your adc dies... and your shield explodes giving you a double kill... XD
I've accidentally done that with leona, never tried it with taric before XD
also when you enageing and your adc pokeing and running at full hp in the fight and then say why you ks.
kill secured
And harassment-free farming for the ADC, plus an early Sightstone. It's all good.
omniknight heal kill steals are teh best
Me when I play
support.
I have this need to kill everything with Q.
support for me.
I get way too many first bloods as Karma because if my ADC is any good at harassing we'll have both bot laners under their turret at 25% hp. One manta Q and it kills them both. I mean Karma isn't really good at anything but chunking the hell out enemy hp.
Dem base damages tho
It's the detonation that kills most low elo players. They don't expect it to have a 60% ap ratio.
That too. Total ratio's on mantra Q is I believe 1.8
Look at me, I am the carry now.
R-Pressing intensifies. XD
That's it. I'm playing ADC Kindred from now on. I don't need gold if I have stacks! ...Right? —rushes
— We'll win this! ;_;
(I'd rather support anyway, though. XD)
they should just get good by playing against the enemy team and their own support for kills.
I get some enjoyment getting a kill from Wbb and flow. I remember one where my adc was chasing a Miss Fortune, and trailing along. My adc was about to die and I knew MF would try and walk back to get the kill. They were at it for awhile and I come up the last mintue not thinking about the enemy health but went to heal my adc and took the kill instead. Didn't even notice till my adc only replied with ... Then just started laughing.
getting a kill from "Web and Flow".
Spider Princess Nami. More demi-humans please, Riot.
i bought
(the best supp i ever played), and i got a lot of kill with her...sorry but if you want gold, learn to last hit properly =D
so..
was your adc?
i dont really need kills to carry a team as support but it does help

Don't complain and let me do my thing
I sell
for
.
double's
passive, and gives all you abilities a substantial slow as well as making you more durable. It also gives 100 ap.
Me as
: "throws hook, only trying to catch the fleeing enemy for my team"
An enemy has been slain
I am so lucky that my team was made up of good sports who responded to those instances with "Da Hooks!!!"
