so your a support main

rubberduckie666·9/17/2015, 3:47:50 PM·23 votes·3,278 views

and you happen you run into another support main thats a higher pick than you and locks in a support. lets say you're not as confident in your other roles as you are in a support role. lets say you're not sure what to pick in other roles.

so heres some champs to pick when your force to fill as a support main

top Shen the late game hyper tank with a potentaly fullteam taunt and a global shield able to not only save your adc but get them kills too. Sion also a massive tank with a ton of cc. Maokai also a tank with cc and a damage denying ult, can easly turn loseing games in a single well played teamfight. Nasus although he lacks cc susan will always become a threat late game and the longer the game goes on the better. Chogath with his aoe knockup and aoe silence and high base damage he will always fit into any comp.

mid Orianna damage, cc, and utlity a supports wetdream, although she requires a level of skill to use correctly a good ori carrys games easly . Morgana although morgs spellshield wont always be usefull her q's long root time and her ult bring everything a team needs to the table and if your fed her w is more than a area denial. Annie annie has to be one of the easyest champions in leauge and with her passive you can not only set up easy wins for your team but grab them yourself with your insane damage andd cc. Anivia aoe damage aoe stun and single target nuke (if you can call her e a nuke) not to mention her wall she brings the controll the the fight all supports love Brand he may only have a single target stun but the damage he brings to the table more than make up for it not to mention most of his damage is aoe. even if your skillshots arnt perfect you should still get off alot of damage in teamfights Chogath with his high scailings he also does well mid while haveing that cc and tankyness

jungle Sejuani lots of cc and a good tank if you gank propperly it will almost always gate a kill for whatever lane your ganking. Shen now shen is my hidden op jungler because with everything he brings as a hyper tank monster with a full team taunt (if done right) with his ult make it so you can gank and save lanes while your on the other side of the map. (also with the new hydra by building nearly only tank you become a massive threat to everyone and a massive splitpushing threat) Rammus another super tank able to almost alway ensure a kill on gank eventually come late game you can force a win on teamfight just by taunting the adc and let your team clean up once the adc finishes killing themself on your thornmail. Nautilus THE KING OFF CC almost always gets a kill on gank not to mention how tanky he gets brings nearly everythign a team needs to a comp.

adc Caitlyn with tons of range you can keep safe and do damage even if you are lacking in mechanics or arnt great at kiteing. Ashe tons of range and utlity with her passive, ult and e very easly to play and lots of damage to boot Varus with tons of long range poke with a slow and a root on ult that can stun more than one person great for when you wana turn fights and poke them down from a safe distance away.

IF you feel i missed someone let me know ill even give people builds for a champ if your willing to ask me good luck in solo que my fellow support mains

It's fun being a support main who owns all the champs..

I'm a support main and this is what I play in other lanes currently:

Top Malphite Singed Gangplank Jungle Amumu JarvanIV Rammus Mid Annie Lux Morgana ADC KogMaw Jinx Sivir

And for fun, here's the supports I mainly play Bard Nautilus Janna Braum Thresh

I think Morg better than Ori mid. Morg's W also helps with wave clear. I have been practicing Ori lately. She is quite fun but significantly harder to play than Morg.

Morgana is good for mid top support and to an extent, a utility adc (melee will never touch her before they are dead late game)

She lacks mobility but does well for self peel and preventing CC on herself

She can also jungle

Top Nautilus and Mid Lulu are pretty good. Actually Lulu mid is very very good, especially if you enjoy the utility/support play style. Picking Lulu can be dependent on your team comp though

Susan is always a threat late game. Especially after you come home late with a silver hair on your suit.

I disagree with the Nasus explanation, he has massive cc susan

Baron of Bread9/18/2015, 12:07:19 AM1 votes

Running Udyr jungle (or top but that is probably harder) can also be a great choice. You can pick and choose what you will turn into late game, be it magic damage AoE threat, physical single target threat, tanky stun machine or some combination of those. The peels are pretty good if you run an AP Bruiser type of setup with a Rylai's, just stand near your adc and slow anyone who comes over and then stun them when they get to close.

Also,

Anivia aoe damage aoe stun and single target nuke (if you can call her e a nuke) not to mention her wall she brings the controll the the fight all supports love

Heck yes you can call her E a nuke, 100% AP ratio with 350 base damage if done right.

^ hahahahaha "finishes killing themself on your thornmail". Love Rammus

Top : Amumu Braum Soraka TahmKench (Taric since the meditation change should be viable... need a try) mid : Annie Brand Janna Karma Lulu Lux Morgana Nidalee Sona Soraka Zyra Zilean Bot carry : Annie Brand Karma Lux Sona Soraka Thresh Jungle : Alistar Bard Kayle Nidalee Soraka TahmKench Support : Annie Brand Galio Kayle Mordekaiser Singed Teemo Urgot Velkoz Shen Ashe

Champions out of this list but with strong "support" capacities : Amumu Anivia Galio Maokai Nunu Rammus Singed Skarner Trundle

Hope it helps.

Support main as well.

TOP: Malphite Maokai Shen

MID: Xerath Anivia Karthus

JUNGLE: Gragas Amumu Sejuani

ADC: Ashe KogMaw Twitch

Given, that most of these I don't get to play in 1 out of 100 games due to the fact I am normally able to get Support or Top.

Chromatic Eagle9/18/2015, 3:01:49 AM1 votes

Karthus all you have to do is farm, and press R. Especially when you die. Sivir comp. Just group up boys. Veigar I know people complain about his E not being as effective, but it's still good at zoning people. In bronze, you'll catch people in them. Anivia is sleeper op. Lots of cc. Velkoz can be a great support, and as long as you mind your positioning, isn't bad in mid. Lux is an even better support, and a good mid laner. TahmKench ridiculously tanky, seems simple, and has utility.

MrWasjig9/18/2015, 10:48:10 AM1 votes

Funny you should mention Shen. Was playing a Ranked match last night where I was last pick and 1st took Support from me. So I chose Shen and ended up with more Assists than the Support themself xD

Also saying Mid Morg's shield isn't useful is nonsense. If you're against another AP MIdlaner consider plenty of damage denied and plenty of CC useless if you get ganked.

As a support main: Top: Maokai Gnar Yasuo Rumble Jungle: Vi Skarner Mid:Yasuo Kennen ADC: Tristana Graves Support (just for reference): Braum Thresh Nautilus Really, there's no method to my madness, but I enjoy hard engage and tanks. But some champions are just hard not to enjoy.

LordGeovanni9/19/2015, 9:10:47 PM1 votes

you cant even take naut into the jungle anymore he was taken bot and now they nerfed him so hard jungle for him is as bad as trying to take an adc or mage that isnt jungle meta. the multiple hits on his e was crucial but because they didnt like the damge it was doint in lane (which wasnt much cause subsiquent hits were reduced) just because the enemy cant learn not to flash along with his E

Archon X9/17/2015, 3:58:33 PM1 votes

I would argue also in favor of Heimerdinger mid, he's my go-to if someone takes support from me. He's really easy to play and his turrets farm for you.

Onegarion9/19/2015, 9:23:50 PM1 votes

I'll follow suit and post my picks as a support main (Thresh Leona Nami Braum )

Top: Gnar Shen Vladimir

Jungle: Elise Vi RekSai

Mid: Ahri Lissandra Orianna

Adc: Jinx Caitlyn Kalista Lucian

EwokSoldier9/17/2015, 3:58:51 PM1 votes

I agree with most of what you said but if you are truly a support main and only know how to support these picks i would not recommend, Varus Ashe , also i would not reccomend SUSAN Nasus since they require more knowledge in that role and positioning can be punished very easily.

For adc i would recommend Ezreal Corki Graves Sivir Tristana they are fairly simple, and each have decent kits with escapes and most have spells so if you are not an adc main that is good at dps with autos these caster type adcs like ez and corki with escapes can help you feel more comfortable

Ionian9/17/2015, 4:21:17 PM1 votes

What about the opposite? What if I'm a mid main and I'm forced to go support? The only support I can play is Leona who gets countered by Janna .
