Harmless Tip about Support for New Players
If you're new to League of Legends, or MOBA's in general, and you just start out. I urge you to play a few games as a Support in your early levels. I have seen a lot of players (some friends of mine), completely disregard the Support role and just go for the OP assassins.
I say this because playing Support gives you an immense amount of learning experience. You're not focused on practicing last hitting minions, you're not glaring at your lane opponent to get a kill, you're the Support and most of the time you're gonna be staring at, and this is the most important part, your TEAM.
I really found it painful to play games where the other members would go the whole game never saying a word. Playing support gives you these great benefits.
- Map awareness
- Player behavior
- WARDING
- Zoning
- Communication
- Warding
Cannot stress how important wards are. A lot of people do not ward in low my unranked elo because "It's the supports job". But the Support cant go all the way to top lane and ward the bushes. These are all crucial skills that I did not get to learn until I actually played a Support role at level 20. And afterwards I improved so much.
