well in terms of gold efficiency the quints themselves are n ot very impressive
however, in terms of a stat, spellvamp and lifesteal are more useful if you are allowed to consistently hit creeps with the relevant attack / spells and can consistently make use of the healing. in other words, in lanes where you would be dominating either way it would be pretty inefficient as you would not be able to make full use of the healing nor would you desire it over additional damage. likewise, in lanes where you lose hard, you would not want it either imo because you would not be able to hit creeps or the enemy champion in any meaningful way without being punished such that the relative inefficiency of the quints would be greater than the additional damage or mitigation that flat MR / armor or AP / AD would give you

i think kennen probably has the nicest time with them as he is able to apply the spellvamp as he desires on a relatively low CD to creeps or the enemy champion (as it has great range and low CD for his Q at least) and he is generally able to dictate the pace of a lane because his counterharass and stun prevents an enemy from going on him early levels without eating a devestating amount of creep aggro. the nature of the quints themselves would make it such that you prefer a drawn out laning phase with small harass that builds up (and allows you to utilize your quints so that you slowly but surely outsustain your opponent). i think that they are niche enough that they are certainly not a must-buy on any champion at the moment, but for connoisseurs of the champions that may use them, they might be a curious option

Good stuff. Still don't know how they manage to play as a team half the time. Bloody mystery of the universe.

Same concept as Janna - 2 good nukes that double as support abilities, a powerful shield, and a fight-changing ultimate. It's kinda weird, but it makes a lot of sense.

He doesn't offer any form of strong cc, like janna's knockup which is amazing in lane fights.
His shield offers more to him, than it does to lane mate.
Though slow/speed boost from his q and e are nice, they aren't that amazing in lane. I just feel that there are plenty of stronger supports.

Not in teamfights, and when running cait you can get away with slightly worse supports.

good point.
Janna's ult mitigates galio's ult pretty hard, though.

Gosh, SV's riven is so ridic.

People also tend to forget how good Galio E is.

90 armor+mr on your squishies plus the heals is pretty fucking huge.
