The Daily Struggles of the Supporting Support of Supportiveness

As a person who plays support quite frequently, I have to point out a few things:

First off: Us supports will try to ward every key location my 3-4 wards can handle! It is up to you, yes you, the other 4 teammates with upgradeable trinkets for 250 gold that give you infinite wards, to ward elsewhere.

Second: This is a team game, not Call of Duty. If we "KS" you (Kill Secured ;D) and you get mad, we will probably laugh until you realize one thing: You still got the assist gold we usually get, and we can now buy more supporting items for me to help the team. We will also steal your cs while you are dead, afk, or at base. We need money just as much as any person in the game.

Third: If we have no mana or very low mana, and you ping for help at a dragon while we are watching you about to get ganked by x number of people because of those fabulous wards, then you complain at your death, we will laugh even harder.

Fourth: If you tower dive a 4v2 stunfest, and expect us to come with you, we will be like Michael Jackson and get some popcorn for the light show (Lux Intensifies)

Finally: We are your support, not your punching bag. If you constantly blame your support for your stupidity, then don't be upset when they suddenly stop supporting and start reporting.

I agree, if the AD carry shows themselves to be doomed to the point of being unsalvagable and being a raging idiot over it. I just think to myself "Top lane looks like it needs help" and start roaming and setting up kills for the rest of the team, and getting deep wards on the enemy jungle.

Cool fact: Most supports are insane roamers since they typically have alot of CC.
