This is the only time I want to play support, lol. Can't stand playing support in solo then finding out my partner is garbage.

Nothing's worse than playing support and finding out your lanepartner can't lasthit and has like 60 minions at 15min. Another problem is that usually we're dominating the lane / denying them, and then instead of being passive and lasthitting most of the time, my lanepartner decides to dive or just be overaggressive, losing the advantage.
However, it feels really good when you're the support and your lanepartner indeed can play and you guys dominate bot and your lanepartner ends up carrying.
Another thing that's awesome to do on the support is to CV the toplane brushes when you notice that your jungler ganks the opponent or something like that, or any other brush even without them having to tell you to. On Soraka you can do clutch ultis and so on, I think supporting is pretty underrated. Nothing makes you feel more helpless than supporting a braindead team, though.

hotshotgg full retard cant understand the fact that gp + renek will kill a carry no matter what items he has
|
Yeap, Renekton double blink impossible to run from and gangplank is like the best carrydiver in the world along with Irelia.
By the way, HotshotGG Jax seems really strong right now

I imagine HS thinking was "Why protect kimchi terror man when I can kill things?"

Tanky champs chase carries around on both sides, but according to his logic, the carries shouldn't die ON EITHER SIDE. Result: Your carries + enemy tanks @ your base, enemy carries + your tanks @ enemy base. What's the point of that?

If they flash onto their turret, don't flash after them. You can either gank again soon while their flash is down, or if they play ultra safe, then you've already helped that lane out (though hopefully there's wards to prevent counter ganks).
If the lane you want to gank a) has no easy kill or b) is farming fine without trouble, then you probably should gank a different lane or just continue jungling.
|
By the way, the junglers I dislike the most are the ones who early on gank your lane actively and make the enemy burn their flash, and then when the enemy is pushed up to your turret without any ward coverage and when their flash is down, they won't gank again.
I really believe that you need to concentrate on that one lane as much as possible after you make them burn flash.

Support farming that sheepstick np. :D
Supporting is fucking boring in LoL especially compared to dota/hon, especially considering bot lane is watch your ad carry afk farm a lot of the time.

then who buys the sheepstick?
|
solo mid if its the int kind. or the 1v3 dude if he's int
|
mordekesier is op as fuck
9/21/0
magic pen/armor/mr per level/ms
ignite flash
R>E/W>Q level E if ur dominating lane level W if hard lane 1 point in Q(its a level 1 wonder)
boot + 3 pots -> revolver -> cutlass -> gunblade
deathcap -> lich bane for more damage
ga for more tankage
ward their wraith and the other riverside when soloing mid push ur lane steal their wraiths~ ult->gunblade->ignite->e->q rotation on carry in teamfights microing ur ghost important!

Supports are boring in LoL because the character itself is boring. Look at soraka/sona's skillsets...even taric to an extent.
|
supports are not boring at all in lol. Its just the current playstile (no its not metagame...) with a bottom babysitter lane that makes the laneing phase boring sometimes.
PPL are way too stuck with it. In dota when the other team would pick a babysitter lane then we would pick a dualstun combo like sven/lina or crix/mirana etc which translates into sion/annie or sth like that and then just pressure and dive them 24/7. while the support is roaming and catching ppl offguard or just pressure/zone them.
But yeah lol is still young. Mb all the different playstiles have to be figured out first before we see strategic picking.
|
There are cheese lanes like that used, usually seen as some form of blitz/alistar or brandt/taric. The problem is they're gimmick lanes -- if you don't gib something, you're going to lose the lane.
