hes got a point I hate playing with bards they usually hurt the team more than anything since hes hard to play. Even if you "main" it or whatever it still doesn't make someone good at it. So many better champions.

Bard is a good support in the hands of a good player. His success will depend on the adc tho, for example when bard places a heal and the adc immediately takes it at full health or overextends while bard is collecting chimes.

LOL incorrect it depends on the bard player. Walking on a heal is the least of anyones problems.

That is the story of how Bard met Jhin in ranked and they both realized that garbage tier picks need someone else to carry them.

I think if played correctly Bard can be pretty strong though...

He can, so can Jhin be useful (there were some Jhin picks in LCS for certain comps), but in general unless you're doing dynamic 5s, you will not be able to get even 50% of his utility. While a Leona will always have 80%+ in both soloq and ranked 5s. Therefore, while not being better by default, Leona is a lot more useful in soloq just because she doesn't need that much communication and teamplay.

If you watch LCS, Aphromoo has a very strong Bard. But that's because when he makes a tunnel - everyone goes through it. When he ults to catch people - team positions to hurt them. He also setups stuns for the team, heals (check how LCS heals are put, you may be suprised) and he is drawing out a lot of champ's potential. Below diamond and playing soloq with it? It's like jungle Jayce, unless you severely outskill your opponents, it doesn't work well.

There are just too many conditions to be met to make Bard pick useful and it's really hard with random teammates.

Jhin Bard bot is probably the most skill based high risk bot lane Ive ever seen. [zombie-brand-mindblown]

dude, one thing i learned from playing league since 3 years, its never the adcs fault, its always his teamates, he deserves all the rescources, all the ganks, all the TP ganks, the kills and he should be thanked for carrying a game even if he clearly isnt, why ? no reason, dickhead attitude thats why

i dont know why but of all roles adc are sooo salty and toxic, i stopped playing support because they always end up on tilt and pick fights with their teams, ex we get ganked by the mid laner, proceed to flame the shit out of mid NO MIA WTF FOLLOW YOUR MID NOOB, then overextend to poke and get killed by a jungle gank JUNGLE CAME THREE TIMES IM GETTING CAMPED AND OUR JUNGLE DIDNT COME ONCE BLAH BLAH yet he keeps pushing and spamming his mana at the creeps... i hate adcs man XD
