What's your bans lately? I'm always banning Shen, Nautilus and 3rd ban depends. I love when people don't ban Naut, it makes me happy that I get a free win. I'll do some mix of Shen, Naut if I'm not playing him, Darius, Morg, Shaco (because fuck that guy), and then it really depends. I'll ban Rammus/Malph if we're playing AD heavy, or Kass if we have a really immobile and squishy mid and AD refuses to mid. Not to start up a Gp10 discussion, but is Kage's worth taking on any supports? I think it might be nice on someone like Soraka if you go back with an early assist/kill, but other than Morello's Tome, there's not much to build it into.
You don't really need to build it into anything. If you need to build something stronger support-wise, you could just sell it late game for the slot. If you're not struggling for support items, I could see Morello's being ok on a support.
I don't really deviate much from the philo - hog on support though. I'm not that creative when it comes to builds sometimes.

Personally I think the only reason that gp10 is necessary on support is because solo queue teams aren't going to let supports farm any time soon (other than Philo because Shurelya's is a beastly item).
From a team gold perspective, support gp10 has an extremely miniscule effect (particularly when the poor baseline cost-effectiveness gp10 is taken into account). It's just that it feels necessary because the gold distribution is so lopsided when it doesn't have to be. Getting 1 wave of 6 creeps is like 6 minutes worth of gp10, and 9 times out of 10 those 6 creeps aren't going to ruin one of your carries.

I ban Alistar, Naut and Lee Sin. If the enemy team helps me ban them, my next choices are Shen, Jax, and Twisted Fate.

slayers almost carried me with ap lee sin
LOL I had 2 second delay all that game and went AP lee sin to boot without the ping we woulda won ez but I just fed because ping is so frustrating when its astronomically high.
Scip 1850 not surprising he always tryhards the only reason he's not higher is because we drag him down LOL.
Ironically when he duo'd with Shayuki earlier (scips 800 elo higher) and streamed it he said he'd go "super fuckin tryhard" and ended up feeding in the early game and losing hard haha.

Yep, still never heard back from them aside from the automated stuff. Then again, I only graduated a year ago, so I'm sure my resume wasn't the strongest one they'd ever seen.

There's a big difference between Philo and all the other gold/10 items. Philo is a cost efficient earlygame item even without the gold/10 component, and it builds into one hell of a strong support item.
Other gold/10 items definitely are a step below Philo for supports. Too low in my opinion, but we all know that I'm relatively lonely with that stance.
I don't see any reason to ever get a third gold/10 in games other than high level tournament games. HoG got some additional legitimation with the second build path, but the only possible legitimation for Kage's on a support is the gold/10 on it. Both build paths are not viable on a support in a realistic setting. Even late late late lategame you should be spending any leftover money on other things like Glacial Shroud, various aura items, and Blue Elixier instead. Not worth it imo.

Not only did he apply, he also got a job and got himself fired. Psyonic_Reaver, of course.

Ever since when is Moonbear a rioter? He's always been just a wrenchy...

Psy got a job if I recall correctly, while Moonie is ''just'' a Wrenchie if I'm not mistaken. (Not that that's a bad thing, MoonBear is one of the best things that ever happened to this board)

I wonder if you can get away with "WTF OF COURSE I NEED FARM HAVE TO BUY BLINK DAGGER" when people bitch at you for taking cs as support. =S

And he wouldn't have even got fired if our wonderdful little LoL general board community didn't crucify him and even resort to calling his family on the phone attempting to troll and curse at them..... >_>

Psy was streaming
General raging back and forth between himself and a teammate
Racial slur from Psy  + Show Spoiler +
Psy said he would ban the guy after the game
Psy banned him after the game
Guy makes a thread in GD
Psy gets fired
Nothing against Psy, he's always seemed like a nice guy to me and I like him, but I honestly think the firing was completely reasonable and called for.

Welp. It's kinda hard for Riot to not do it that way I guess. =/
And what's the deal with people from here calling his family? Like, the hell.
