I REALLY love him right now, he makes me wanna play ADC main, he is fairly tanky, has a steroid and a good waveclear, and an insane burst at lvl6 in lane.
Imo I'm having a breeze laning, and in teamfights I'm always useful even if it's only smokescreen. I really think it's easy to stomp lane phase with him though, his passive makes him really good and you can go balls to the walls with your dash if your support feels like hard engaging
Honestly my CS with him thus far has been really good ( two games of 40 and 49 minutes where I got 275 and 325 and a 20:00 game where I was at 13-1-2 and 120 CS ), I feel his only problems are lack of AS before I get phantom dancer, and his range being lackluster.
Why isn't he picked more ? I can totally see him ruining a MF sona or an Ezreal lane, because of his burst and tankiness, put him with leona or taric and you can just shit on the ennemy bot lane. I really don't think you could play anything that isn't tanky with him when you're support, so that's also a drawback also smoke screen is OP. I like playing him and find him pretty good. MF still #1
Koggles/Cait #1. I like my range.

Only played 1 game with her and didn't like her, mostly because using double up requires a functional brain, which I obviously don't have lol :D

I couldn't refrain my inner lamer from bad mouthing ez, and he even stole my penta at the end. I'm not sure this system was the best way to make people learn how to be chill about the game.
It has nothing to do with the format, since before people were stressed about every game for +/- elo and also at the XX00 borders. What really helped me was to change my attitude from "fuck these guys are feeding and making the game too hard" to " hm I wonder if I can carry my 2/11 bot lane" so that when I do win those games I feel that I really accomplished a lot in the game and definitely have the skill to improve and if I lose then its just that I may be better but not good enough to win that particular one. Always carry in solo q, never not carry. But I main support!! how carry? wut do? + Show Spoiler +No, I'm not actually starting this discussion again. I'm just bad lol. Support carrying hard as shit. + Show Spoiler +Unless you play secret AD Thresh huehuehue
Support carrys the carry in lane. Therefore, if your adc carries the game, you have carried the team
Flawless logic.

I feel like he isn't used more because 525 range can feel really awkward at top levels and his late game doesn't run over people like some others can because of a mix of short range and lower attack speed. he's fine in soloq though.

Its been a while ago but during the initial Graves popularity someone said Hes not so much a adc as he is a ranged bruiser and that feels kinda true.

Your elo acts like a magnet and your placement will home in to where you belong according to elo. If your Elo places you close to the next tier, you can luck your way into the next tier and then be incapable of dropping back down even if you don't belong there.

I love supporting for Graves, because then I can play Taric and we win pretty much every lane. No one in solo queue knows how to handle burst of that magnitude. Manliest lane.

I see what you did there, quite the comedic gem. But I suppose jokes about a Graves/Taric lane is like shootin' fish in a barrel.
