Platinum level support player stuck in bronze, looking for adc to climb ladder with

iTruss··1 votes·979 views

Been playing with plat level players for a long time, always win my lane. Been playing MOBAs for 10+ years. Support player, stuck in bronze cause I main support and don't wish to play anything else. (I can play JG if necessary) Can't carry myself out of bronze as support. Got placed in bronze after losing every single one of my placement matches because of unbelievably bad ADCs. I promise 90+% lane win rate.

Looking for good ADC, please respond.

All I'm going to say is I really hope you're trolling. If you really don't deserve to be in bronze you'll make it out. I went from bronze 2 to gold 5 playing only support, not to mention there are PLENTY of support mains who are higher than gold that got there without getting their asses carried. Good luck regardless though buddy.

Do you know anything about statistics? Lol. The fact that you could, (which still is unlikely if you solo queued as a support 100% of the time), does not mean that everybody can. A support is not a killing role, meaning that no matter how well a support does he cannot carry a game, unlike literally every other role in the game. Thus, it is impossible to have the EXPECTATION that a support can win more than 60% of his games based solely on his own play in order to rank up. God, read a book, go back to school, and mind your own business.

This had to be the funniest thing I read all day. Most people claim to be a elo higher then what they are. which is reasonable, the average player on their best day CAN play a elo higher than what they are. But to claim you are 3 elos higher than what you are?

Kid get out of here with your cocky as hell attitude, we don't want you in plat lol, hell I don't even want you in my silver games.

Kid sounds like a spoiled rich kid demanding daddy to buy him a lcs spot.

If you care enough to deserve plat you care enough to expand your champion pool.

Edit: Looked you up on Lolking. Based on your match history, you definitely aren't plat material.

Not sure how you even made it to bronze 2 by the looks of your match history.

The ignorance in the responses to this post is bronze material that's for sure.

gonna be honest here man bragging bout your sup skills being plat level is what got people up in arms youre better off being humble and saying something like looking for a smurf to help me climb elo cause youre only gonna get hate from everyone if you act like alot of low elo players that say i dont deserve my elo for x reason then you look at there history and its like yea you do im a sup main and i can ez carry bronze level games as a sup so you need to look at you mate not the adc

I'm looking at your match history on op.gg and well lmao.. erm, the only time you win is if you get carried. Hense 2/14 Jinx. And like one other guy said, expand your champion pool. Supports can carry out of bronze and silver and gold. It's just a matter of how much time and effort you put into it. There has to be something you're doing wrong that is holding you back (not your team.. atleast not all the time).

edit: Please, for the love of god, stop taking ignite. You can take it, but it's just not recommended for low elo really lol. One more thing, your item builds and orders are a problem, try to look over it. Hopefully this helps even a bit. Good luck

Diamond mostly support player here. Since I haven't seen any of your games, I can only judge you based on your item and skill builds as well as your masteries. In general, most support players tend to at least get those right and are held back by their mechanics. In your case, you're builds are all completely wrong. This is NOT a matter of opinion. There are some personal preferences that can be accounted for, but what you're doing is not even close to correct. I'll only point out how you should fix your leona build since I don't want to spend the time with all your champions, and u play her the most anyway.

First of all, skill order. You seem to be doing E/W/W/Q for the first 4 levels, then maxing R>W>E>Q. You SHOULD be doing Q/E/W/W for the first 4 levels, then maxing R>W>Q>E. You need E/Q by level 2 to actually have any sort of kill potential. Waiting for lv4 to get Q defies the point of even playing leona. Note also that your Q is an auto reset. Max R>W first for obvious reasons. As for why you max Q instead of E third, well... In general you only need to E once to get into the fight so the CDR isn't that important. However, maxing Q first helps peeling for your adc and locking down opponents since the CD goes pretty low.

Masteries. In general, they're not too bad. However, dump explorer for tough skin, dump strength of the ages for bond of stone. If you feel really ham, you can try grasp of the undying but I don't recommend it (although it's still better than strength of the ages, which should only EVER be used on junglers). Perseverance vs Insight and Legendary Guardian vs Swiftness is preference, so do whatever you like there.

Item builds. You're first 3 items should be, in no particular order: targons, sightstone and t2 shoes (either swiftness, mobility, tabi or merc, whatever you want depending on their comp or your playstyle). Your first completed item should be either the eyestone or face of the mountain. From there, do NOT build sunfire. You should be building stuff that helps your team like locket, randuins, frozenheart and righteous glory (emphasis on locket and righteous glory). Very rarely will you ever build anything else. Late game, you can also build zekes, but being tanky first is more important.

Lastly, just going to point out that support is NOT the hardest role to carry from. In general, the support is the one that enables kills in the botlane, not the adc. Carrying as support, contrary to popular belief, is actually easier than most other roles since most of the time the enemy support doesn't really want to play support and thus isn't very good at it (at lower elos anyway).

Final note on combo order:
Pre-6 main combo: E-W-AA-Q. Post-6 main combo: E-W-AA-Q-R. You use the stun on your Q so they cant get away form ur ult stun. ONLY engage with ult when they are too far for your E.
Note that if you can walk up in a bush and engage your combo with your Q, you should always do so. In that case, combo becomes: (AA)-W-Q-(ult if you have it), and then E for when they flash out.

Hope this helps a little. If you want more help, message me ingame. Name is: Sacredwisp.

EDIT: Saw in an earlier post a guy saying to stop using ignite on leona. Disregard that. The only time you should use exhaust on leona is if they have a really damage heavy comp of people who are exhaustable (for example, LB isn't "exhaustable" since her burst comes too fast and she can disengage if exhausted easily). If they have a lot of champs like draven, riven, kha zix, then consider using exhaust. Use ignite otherwise.

33% winrate... you are not plat level lol

You will win the majority of your games if you are better than the other team's support, it is that simple. Find a strategy where you are winning around 60%+ of your games and stick to it until you level out. I am still winning around 60% with Alistar and Nautilus, which means I have not reached my limit yet and am currently Plat, so take it from someone who knows the climb.

LMAO. All these people saying they can carry supp games in bronze, guarantee you have never played supp solo in bronze. You do not understand how easy it is to set up kills for the adc, or to get huge trade advantages, only to have them over-aggress and die, throwing away your entire advantage. The level of ignorance cannot be understated, if that's how you feel. And if that's the experience you've had, let me tell you that you are an outlier. Anyway, since nobody wants to actually play with me to see how I play instead of making completely ignorant and unbiased judgments, I won't post here again. IDK what I expected from this community. GL HF.

Not sure If you read my message or not, but I for one actually tried helping you instead of just flaming. As I said, I can't evaluate your mechanics since I haven't seen you play. However, your builds (masteries, items and skill order) are all wrong, so at least fix those, and if you still can't get out of bronze, ask for help again.

As a side note, I have been in the 900's in ELO before, which is, as a matter of fact, roughly equivalent to bronze V 0lp with a few losses under the belt at 0lp. So don't go mouthing off to some1 trying to help you that "you don't understand how it is to play with bad players". Also, if you think that at higher ELO people are magically great at the game, well you're wrong. At higher ELO, a lot of people are still have terrible decision making and people have bad games. You also have to deal with the constant sh*t of boosted players (actually boosted, not just accusations) and smurfs, so it's not uncommon to have lanes get entirely shitstomped in a few minutes.

Also, I have duoed with a bronze adc quite a few times in vs plat players and done just fine. So if I can carry a bronze ADC in plat as a diamond player, there's no reason that you can't carry a bronze adc in bronze if you're "plat level" as you claim.

Fix your builds. If there's no improvement, make another post. As it stands, you are NOT plat level. Maybe silver.

If you need help, PM me ingame.

i main support, although it is much harder to carry yourself as support it isn't impossible. Play thresh and leona go ham win game.

i'll give you the benefit of the doubt of winning lane every single time, but if you're losing after that, i don't want you in plat. falling off THAT hard after laning shows you completely lack objective-taking, rotational, and decisionmaking skills (ie working the map to your advantage), which all are essential to anything above silver elo.

you need to remember that this game isn't Quake 3 arena -- you aren't playing duel, you aren't 1v1ing all game. This is a teamgame with the objective being to destroy something, so treat it like that. when you play support, you're allowed to act like you have the biggest dick in the game, because people won't respect your tankiness or HUGE utility, and obviously you're not capitalizing on that fact.
