Which role is worse in your opinion? Top or Support?

Why people think Top lane sucks:

  • Having to deal with possible range enemies (& Yasuos...) as a melee champion.
  • A lonely island. Game's better of being a pure 4v4 til the 10 minute mark.
  • Rift Herald isn't a big deal to prioritize, compared to the Dragon at Bot lane.

Why people think Support sucks:

  • No one likes being a bitch.
  • Possible chance of their ADC being brain-dead & can't do damage at all during mid-late game.
  • They have an odd hate in building Sightstone (except Lee Sin supports where it's mainly used for dashing instead of providing vision)

IMO, I really like both roles a lot as it makes me relax a little without too much pressure. Sure I'll be having to deal with a boring top lane or having a chance to team with an idiotic Vayne wanting to 1v2 everytime I recalled, but to me, it's just isn't a big deal.

Nice poll. No option for neither, or for the sake of equality both equally.

Since not all options are available i'll have to abstain.

Personally I like both.

With the bias of a support main, I would say that top is my least favorite and is the one role that I absolutely cannot play. I think it has to do with the degree of chapions used top (Riven, Teemo, Darius, etc.) and the tank mentallity which is lost on me. You are also more likely to be left by yourself and get ganked throughout the whole game no matter which team you are on, in my experience. The only real success I do have up top is with Kassadin.
