What support uses attack speed other then kayle? Also don't say some offmeta/troll thing like janna or bard.

You didnt read the post did you?

Oracle lens requires attack speed to clear wards properly, most supports have low attack speed, a support item that gives attack speed and would help with Oracle lens.

Oracle lens doesn't require attack speed I never build attack speed and i can clear wards perfectly. You just need to learn how to do it right Also, control wards

Its not a matter of 'doing it right'...

It is If you can keep 'bit of track where the enemy places their wards, you can come up with an optimal pathing plan to get many of them cleared out with oracle and at the same time use control wards. If you're in a premade with someone, you can have them walk with you and help clear out the wards with you

That's what i do and it works pretty well without any attack speed items

If there are 4 wards decently spaced apart, most supports wont have enough attack speed to clear them all.

Not everyone is in a premade.

Well then you clear 2-3 of them. You should be able to do that, and put down a control ward to take the last ones. Simple

And what happens when you're in late game, have 6 items and dont have control wards?

Then you clear out all of the wards you can You aren't supposed to be able to clear all of the wards away if they're placed in a correct way Vision wins games and it's rewarding if you know how to place wards. You know why they took the vision jungle item away? To control the amount of vision in the pro play.

If you got your attack speed support item, what next? You want more movement speed items so you can clear even more wards? The fact is, not everything is going to be handed to you and you can't clear all of the wards away

Supports already have movement speed items.

item 3301 line item 3905 item 3504 item 2065 item 3512 What's wrong with one support item that gives attack speed?

Because we don't need an attack speed support item (Fyi, Ardent gives attack speed)

Ardent gives you attack speed when you heal or shield someone. I'm not going to use Soraka's wish spell everytime I need to ward clear.

lulu isnt bad with it, but help pix should be on your adc.

TerozuMar 24, 20191 votes

Help pix isnt what gives you attack speed, her W is.

Hello pix moves her passive to her adc tho.

TerozuMar 25, 20191 votes

What does that have to do with attack speed though?

the reason nashor's would be good on lulu is because of her passive.

Arcade LuluMar 24, 20193 votes

But why?

No support uses attack speed items

TerozuMar 24, 20192 votes

Read the post and you'd know why, Oracle Lens.

I've been rushing wits end on support neeko. It's somewhat supporty with its passive ontop of giving you 40% airspeed and mr. Its also cheaper than tooth to help your low income supportness... though you'll need too look elsewhere for your c/d reduction.

I fush it if I see they have multiple APs, if not I like going item 2065

MrFawknSunshineMar 24, 20191 votes

well if you are playing a support for "on hit" where you want an AS item for support why arent you using the runes that helps with this? such as alacrity and the 10% as rune? this should be more then enough

TerozuMar 24, 20192 votes

I didnt say anyhting about on hit. I said for Oracle Lens.
