Where's the supports at?

I'm salty. With the new que dynamic I've listed mid as my primary and support as my secondary but from the sheer fact that no one wants to support, I've only gotten the support role for all my games so far. Can there be a way to balance this out so I'm not forever support???? item 3070

I love to support provided my adc isn't an abusive jerk face!... or a kalista.. I cannot stand being tethered to a kalista ;-;... Happy leagueing! :3

Don't que as support?

xD yeah that's always a option but quite generally I'd feel safer with that as my secondary. I just don't want to be limited to one role cause there's no one else who wants it :/

There is one. It's not putting support or jungle at all.

I've never understood support mains. It's such an unrewarding way to play.

well generally I'd do it if no one wants to cause I know what I should do, and generally a support who doesn't want to support brings the team down. It's kind of like a sacrifice for the win xD

My friend if all you're looking for is kills.. then this may be true..(honestly supports end up killing rather often anyways at times depending on the support etc.) Nothing is more rewarding than getting that clutch heal to your adc who's about to die..or catching multiple people in a nami bubble, or yelling"STAND BEHIND BRAUM" as you leap in front of and block a cait ulti that would have otherwise killed your adc, Etc. You're there because your adc needs you.. the biggest problem with support imo is abusive adcs who blame their supports for literally everything. I feel as though you're looking at the role entirely wrong as support champions are some of the funnest champions to play.. I <3 Nami so much, and braum, and lots of supports <3

I just don't feel it man. My adc is in peril, I rush over, I heal I him, I give him my ult, he just barely gets away!

... and I feel like I wasted a bunch of shit for nothing. There are so many support games where it feels like I just can't do anything at all. If my lane doesn't snowball, I may as well not exist.

You're also not just your adc's support, you're the whole team's support. While it may be frustrating when your team does bad, it's very rewarding when they do well. The scenario you described I enjoy it! I know that I didn't just waste everything for nothing(unless my adc is a miserable salty jerk face). If i have a positive adc we usually do really well, I feel as though if people praised supports more than blaming them.. then league and the support role would be a better place :3 I'll respect your opinion though as you are entitled to it :P

I explained my theory as to how this works in another post if you want to read it :)

It's pretty easy. Stop picking support. Anyone with half a brain could tell you that in the interest of getting you into a game as fast as possible it's going to drop you into a team more often than not as your least picked role.
