Bronze support mains?

{quoted}

I was maining support in Bronze, gave up on it, it's hard enough to climb in Bronze it's twice as hard as a support. Eventually any duo partner leaves their support behind unless you play every game together.

You must have had bad luck.

I climbed as support (in flex). I was scared at first so I went to other lanes, but support is just so much more fun. So I came back to it and you can make it work. You will never carry a bad team, but you can help a normal team.

Carrying as support in Bronze is very possible. I recently played the best Leona I have ever played ever. Our jungler disconnected around 5 minutes into the game and never came back. It was a straight up 4v5. For some reason I was on point that game, a performance I haven't been able to repeat since. I landed ever single ult, every single E that game and carried so fuckin hard. My team, despite being a man down steamrolled the other team. You would almost forget that it was a 4v5. All because I was God that game and constantly had their carries on lockdown, unable to anything to my team.

Since that game, every game I've lost since, I know it's because I didn't play as well as can be played. Like I said, I haven't been able to repeat that performance but if I could, I don't think I could ever lose. Support can carry if you're good enough. I swear to God, if I could play every game like I played that one, I'd main support and stomp my way up the ladder.

Supports can help win games. They can "carry" in the sense that you can pick off targets. Mostly mage supports. But I rarely see a support 1v5 or multikill in a teamfight, unless you decide to build damage, which can be needed sometimes.

Maybe I should talk to some higher ELO supports. But I don't go into games with the intention to carry. That isn't my job.

I agree. If your whole team is 0/10/0, probably not gonna win, but supports have so much impact on the game in terms of winning lane/getting carries fed/getting vision/denying vision/setting up kills/denying kills.

Shotcalling, map awareness, and teamfighting are also huge... if you can warn a teammate they're getting ganked, organize a baron kill, or land a good exhaust or redemption, could mean the difference between victory and defeat.
