We have to mention the worst part of being a support... Control wards. Supports sink so much money into these without even understanding why they're doing it. 1 competently placed control ward is both generating gold through the capture of enemy wards, and a safe vision zone for your team and against enemy team. Spamming control wards on the other hand, typically when you ward tribush, it gets cleared, you place your second one, 2 minutes later it also gets cleared cuz you're under pressure. Good job you've lost 150g on nothing, half a kill or an entire wave worth of gold poofed out of existence and you wonder why you're sitting on kindlegem at min 18. Work less, work smarter, save your control wards and stop wasting your gold.

Tank is such a sweet sweet Skinner Box. Many games will suck, your team ignores your engages. Calls for engages you know are suicide...but if you don't they'll all int... And then you get that one perfect game where the enemy team can't kill you and you wade through them, like the terminator stalking the backline. Hooks-a-flyin', crowds being controlled. You walk forward in lane and watch as 5 full grown adults back up in terror. But yeah. Usually it sucks!

The big one for me is that I have more agency. A handful of times I decide at about 10 minutes in that I’m the bot lane carry because they’re doing so poorly and I start building full ap and carry. When you play pure heal/shield/tank supports, sometimes you feel that agency slip away.

@@BomberDavi You're correct. This mentality is healthier in a carry role, but I don't particularly enjoy the Jungle role, and ultimately, I play video games to have fun above everything else. I main mid and support, and yes, I do sometimes play Zyra mid and have a good time with it. When I go support, I still play Zyra because I want to be able to take over if my ADC isn't doing well. I don't start the game with this mentality. I start the game playing a peeling/catcher support with no intent to steal kills. If my ADC can competently act on my catches, we're good, but if they're not doing their job, I like knowing I can take over and still carry the lane. I sit between Emerald and Diamond pretty consistently this way. Maybe I could climb higher with a proper support or if I took Zyra to the Jungle, but I like what I do, and I'm content with my rank.

Thing I hate the most is when my team is constantly getting itself into fights, over and over, and while they are dead they'll ponder over something to complain about and see that the map has no vision, because instead of placing wards I tried to help in the fight and died. Had I instead ignored the fight and placed the wards, I would then be accused of trolling for not helping teamfight.

I am a support main. I have been one since season one, and you missed one crucial support type, the "You are not gonna play" type. Characters like Morgana, Lux, Leona and Nautilus fit this type, as their whole job is making the enemy CC ed long enough for them to get a afk warning. I had 4 accounts in this game, and each had at least 3m on Morgana. I can openly and happily say that i single-handedly raised ban rate of at least 3 characters in TR Server.

This is just a gut feeling, but I feel like part of the reason it feels so hard to impact the game as a supp is the role just doesn't use gold all that well. Because you can't farm, and your passive income can't fully make up for that for balance reasons, getting a kill at any point in the game will mean less for you. You can't use the gold to spike like every other role because even with a kill you are only breaking even with a passively farming laner. You can't even really use the pressure from getting a kill either as you would just be stealing XP and gold from one of your laners by trying.

Perfectly encapsulated the full support package.
One of my favourite things as an ex-support main turned ADC is when my support hovers Senna and I lock in Enchanter Seraphine in response. Essentially we've just role swapped. I just make gold through CSing and Senna gets it through support item and souls. Really does demonstrate who does and who doesn't have the skillset to play Senna, and worst case scenario I bring my heals, shields, Buffs and CC to my Midlaner and Jungler who are more capable of carrying.
The animal crossing animalese while PNG's of champs yell at each other is PERFECT!

here is my advice if you want to play support: get a fk good duo partner, someone who fits you, a real friend, and most important: someone you don't need to talk a lot with because u think alike its so important for your own sanity. then every time your adc gets a kill with your help - your (good) partner will thank you for having the back, everytime you throw ur life in line, maybe even dying - the team going "gg nub" on you - your partner will thank you for saving his life and gold advantage. and he will repay you later with winning the match. every time you go in for a risky shit move - ur (good) partner will follow even when nobody else will. and even if u die - your partner will laugh with you "next time bro" Never - solo Q as support. Just don't do it. ps: if you see this Pap - you will always be my only duo partner! I love you man! - your Leichenfresser

Support is a pretty broken role and I’m saying this as someone who kinda mains support now. Your impact on the game scales with game knowledge more than your actual mechanical skills. As the support you can play any champion with any items and any runes you want because you don’t have to cs. This means you can look at what both teams win conditions are and play to either stop the enemies win conditions, help your teams win conditions, or do both in really good scenarios. The only role that has more maximum potential to impact the game is jg.

Lee Sin support is so fun. Infinite amount of wards so you always have a dash, hits pretty hard pre 6, can insec the enemy adc once Lee hits lvl 6, good at roaming since he's primarly a jungle, omega fun since you're playing Lee Sin, and also it kinda makes you less useless late game since because you're support you're not supposed to be a damage dealer, so the downside of Lee Sin jungle (having a shitty late game where you just exist to insec or smite objectives) becomes less frustrating when you're playing support.
maiming support has been great as a jungler. it’s same thing cuz they’re both supporting roles

Imagine "evolving" from the based and waterboarded Nautilus into the virgin Pyke. Not even if Hell froze over. Basically only play the game to play Nautilus these days.
I used to be a Leona support OTP but ADCs convinced me ADC stands for Always dead and crying, so I pivoted to Leona top and Jungle instead. It is surprisingly good. Leona is a really good splitpusher and duelist AND Leone Jungle plays basically like Leona support, except the crybaby down south is not your responsibility and you actually have some gold to buy better items and maybe even build some bruiser-items that give you enough damage to actually be a threat whilst still having enough durability in your kit to just say "No thank you!" to any attempts to damage you.
as a top lane main, its always so cute to see people complain about how frustrating other lanes are
As a Zyra main i just like the insane crowd control along the dmg so if my adc is useless im the adc now, tho my villain arc is wanting to add shaco to my champ pool

As a toplane player that mostly plays bruisers i always love a good engage supp (i am d 3 at the moment) and the little time i do honour its either a good tank support or a jg. And i think the no credit problem gets better the higher elo you go so thats that.

Cool video, I play on EUW servers and I usually don't get many typers, they usually just stay quiet. If I had to complain it would be the match making, when I'm not Qing with my friends 5/10 are at max decent, 1/10 are actually very good and the rest are so bad... I hate to be toxic but they fail at even sitting in lane farming all the time, almost literal bots. Quick mention that I don't play ranked so my draft elo is around bronze, even getting a few gold players sometimes. If you have a fragile ego it's the perfect way to play, they all suck really bad most of the times
I once spotted the entire enemy team sitting in a bush we had warded to try and ambush us before drake (I think at least), so naturally I pinged it, laded a 5-man stun with my Leona Ult that resulted in a 5-0 ace. The ADC who finally found their right mouse button after being unable to rightclick people I was holding in place for the entire lane to the point where I said "Fuck this, I'm walking to toplane and ganking top!" getting all the credit is my thirteenth reason why

Honestly... I do not blame you
That's why I play support! To not get any recognition other than what I did wrong! Just as irl...

It'll be ok
I've been a support main for almost 15 years of Mobas now, the most annoying issue with support is my lack of ability to solo carry a game, like I can make the best saves, land amazing stuns, ward like crazy, roam constantly, and that's not going to gurateee the win if my team is stupid, I have appreciated that Lol allows me to carry on higher dmg supports at the same time it annoys me when I ward all around dragon and ping it a bunch and my team decides "nah"
Id love a terrible guide to top or bruisers
Best advice I can give is to play off meta support. Nothing more satisfying then getting flamed pregame for locking in Darius, Jax, or Xin and then solo carrying the game
thats absolutely not a terrible guide. it iiiiiis what it iiiiiiis
You forgot to mention at the start that if you die a whole bunch to get the ADC lots of kills, they will still flame and report you for being bad, and claim that they did everything.
I gave up on being a support as a thresh main so i picked up pyke to solo carry
As someone who started playing Shaco and Veigar as support champions way back in season 3... yeah.

Honestly, whether i enjoy my lane as support completely depends on my ADC, if they're just there to farm till 20 then i'm gonna go roam while they sit under tower, doing anything else is the most boring thing. If i have an ADC that actually wants to make plays then i'm down to clown on the enemy, if we push them under tower lets gank mid, or kill the enemy jungle, or get an objective, you can make plays so early and you don't need to worry about farm, your job is exclusively to make things happen, which is also why jungles my second favorite. Why farm minions when the champions are right there? But yeah the undeserved whining is crazy, the amount of times someone ints and then whines their ass off is wild, and honestly the best approach i've found is to just RP an abused house wife and stroke their massive egos, like it's how you rank up as a support the fastest, it's wild. In jungle it's much harder, i just generally tell them i only gank winning lanes because i don't waste time on bad players, then the enemy(usually top lane) will overextend like 3 times in a row because my laner will stop overextending assuming im gonna help them, and we get the ball rolling again.
As a Zyra main I can confirm that I AM the carry
As someone with 1.4m mastery points on Pyke……. I hate this

Kennen sup always because I can either assist and stun the enemies while my adc takes them out or I can lick the enemy off one by one because my ult eventually comes back faster than they respawn
Next stage is youre playing toplane because youre not longer want to interact with youre team😂
As a Vel'koz main i would like to specify that most people are ready to be screamed at if they ever godforsakenly steal a kill from the adc wich went 0/4 by 5 minutes
