The Problem With Autofill Isn't Getting Support I've Learned

Xonra··3 votes·472 views

The problem with Autofill is getting support, and dealing with the adcs. Being support doesn't bother me, however it is hard enough to play a role you aren't comfortable with because no one likes it, but having to baby sit an adc who has no clue what they are doing in any capacity, and want to flame you for 20 minutes. The baby sitting part isn't terrible, but having to baby sit someone who goes 0/4 in lane, is almost triple behind in cs, and no amount of trying to give them kills works...that is the frustrating part of Auto fill. And when your adc sucks, you are basically a walking back of hit points until you can get out of laning phase and hope your other 3 teammates aren't as useless.

Just sayin'

As a support main, if I find my ADC doing not so good, I become the carry and help the ADC get back on their feet.

Janna and Ivern are great backup carries. :3

If I could change champs mid game I would do that (the whole carrying thing:P), but I tend to play tanks (as no one else seems to ever want to, and I love playing Naut). It isn't easy to become the carry as a Naut support with a way behind adc. At that point engaging is death which makes a tank kind of useless with a bad adc.

Honestly, I haven't had any issues with the ADCs I've ended up supporting.

My main issue is when the ADCs happen to be autofilled and we have to lane against a premade bottom lane.

More often than not I seem to get autofilled adcs or adcs just "trying it out", or the fun of champs they don't know how to play, etc. I don't mind someone having an off game, or not being an all star, just hard as a support (when I'm auto filled into it to begin with, so clearly I'm not support main), to do anything when the adc is waaaaaaay behind from level 1.

If I find my ADC isn't that useful, I tend to focus more on roaming the map to ward and gank for my other lanes.

I don't necessarily abandon bottom lane, but I'm probably going to assist my jungler if I see them invading or ganking mid-lane than I am to stay bottom.
