How to ADC from a Support player.

  1. Right click shit.

  2. Complain because you failed at right clicking the correct target.

  3. Rage in all chat, blame the support and get chat restricted/banned.

  4. Make thread on forums asking if you should have gotten banned for number 3.

You're angry. You should stay off the boards when you're angry.

  1. The ADC shouldn't be the engager. That should be the jungler or top laner's job. Or the support's if the situation calls for it. The ADC should be the follow up.

  2. Pots do fall off late game, but they do serve a purpose. You should never stop buying wards.

  3. Wards help the whole team not just you. Warding the side bush gives dominance over the other duo and significantly gimps melee supports. Warding the river allows you to see the gank coming and can be used to tell if the enemy jungler is sneaking dragon. "Vision wins games."

  4. I ward wherever the enemy is expected to be. I have extra wards but you have wards of your own. No excuse to face check those bushes on your part. Also, my ward stock is limited. Be wary of this.

  5. No. If I can harass the enemy or prevent them from getting the cannon minion or assert my dominance over the enemy with little to no retaliation I am going to do it. I'mentioned not Soraka.

  6. This is situational. Sometimes it is wise to use it to get kills but other times it is better to use it to peel or soak up enemy damages. To use it only when you specified is incorrect.

How to ADC - A guide from a support main

  1. Never ward. That's something only support should be doing.

  2. Don't use your heal when support is near death. Save it for yourself because supports don't matter.

  3. Play aggressively when your support isn't in lane. 2v1? ADCs can take it.

  4. Always make sure to blame every mishap on your support. FLAME THEM HARD.

  5. Don't have any map awareness.

I don't know what you're all talking about, this is great advice......for the enemy support.

As someone who just about mains support, this is probably the worst advise possible.

  1. Learn your ADC in the first five minutes and assume he's medium skill. Adjust as necessary and win game. >.>

As an ADC main, I will let people that know how to support decide how to support

How actually to support:

  1. understand your champion, different champions will require different play styles.
  2. ALWAYS ward, my recommendations are warding tri bush with a pink and river bush with a trinket and continuing to trinket that bush. (reverse if top side)
  3. Poke as often as you can and don't get frustrated if you're adc isn't engaging as well, if youre keeping enemies off of cs and your adc is getting cs, its all good.
  4. When you get Sightstone, drop the trinket and pick up a sweeper.
  5. Ward a lot and protect your team.
  6. You're on your way to being a great support.

All of this advice is bad advice.

Randomonium1/13/2016, 5:45:06 PM1 votes

This is all pretty horrible advice. The whole point of supports in laning phase is to deny the enemy ADC CS (through harass/positioning) and protect your ADC from being harassed/ganked.

  1. Let your ADC engage.

? Whut?

  1. Only buy pots and wards for the first 15 minutes.

Pots I get but I can't buy wards anymore...

  1. Do not use your wards until ADC is out of position.

What? Why would I go ward when you're out of position, pretty sure I'd peel because you just made a mistake.

  1. Only ward areas where your ADC is frequently playing around.

Uh... no. I'll ward the areas that make sense or that the enemy likes to go through.

  1. Do not attack the enemy champs unless your ADC starts the fight.

Uh, no. If I want to poke them I'm going to poke.

  1. Only ult to save ADC and not to set up kills... let your ADC do that.

Whut...

K Thanks Bye.

K..... bye....
