Had an interesting observation in my ranked stats yesterday. If mid and adc are taken I'll support but I don't do it that often, yet when I checked my winrates they were better overall than any of my other winrates in other roles.

What should I put this down to? I don't really rate myself as a support player (I'm only gold so I'm bad anyway, but I think I'm much better at mid or adc). Is it EASIER to play support in soloq if you just play stuff like sona?

MS boost is better for 1v1 or small skirmishes. Slows are better for teamfights because everyone will benefit if you slow an enemy. So overall imo slows are easily better.

slows are better than an equivalent amount of haste because the target covers less distance once you've caught up to him.

although they're worse in weird corner cases like master yi

Westrice's 1v1 is questionable, but his ability to roam is pretty damn good. Also it doesn't help Riot nerfed Akali til she was 6ft underground.

Riot nerfed akali into the ground, or riot brought akali down from being OP? I never played akali, so I don't know, but that says a lot more about westrice's skills then it does about the champion akali. Just like how nien is just playing zac and elise, I bet he thinks he needs to work on his mechanics, when what he really needs to work on is playing champions that aren't way more powerful then the enemy counter part.

Riot nerfed akali into the ground, and then dug a grave for her, buried her, and then defecated on it for good measure
The initial nerfs in s2 were okay, s3 nerfs were "lol fuck akali players, cuz wood league complains about the snowball".
Westrice has other good champs too, such as Rengar, and Zed.

I am only silver but whenever I am to pick adc, I usually win the game, almost 80 percent of the chance
But when I play support which I regard it as my main role, I only win around two third of my games

Offensively speaking slows are basically always better due to simple math. A 50% Slow is strong enough to completely cancel out a 100% movement speed boost. At the same time, any movement speed about 415 suffers from diminishing returns.

They're also better for the reason you stated. Slows increase the amount of time it takes your opponent to reach safety, which is typically far more useful than both of you moving around at light speed, especially when the speed is conditional on combat.

Akali's laning is meh, but she's a fantastic jungler*!

I think it's simpler than that.
Offensively speaking, a slow allows multiple people catch up. While MS bonus only allows 1 person to catch up (unless your jayce, fuck that guy).

So it seems like NA servers are taking one gigantic dump, based upon how I can't even get into the game I was trying to load into (got stuck in champ select screen before it dumps to loading screen), and after a 8 minute queue time I still can't connect, with it saying game's in progress but won't let me reconnect to that game. And now queue time is 9 minutes, and probably 10+ as you read this.

Edit: for those curious, Riot is aware of the issue and have started compensation mode.

hence the reason they aren't costed the same and slows tend to have shorter durations than movespeed buffs

I like giving movespeed more than taking movespeed away, so I approve of the changes. It helps the bearer without negatively impacting the person they're attacking, making it less important on odd man fights and more important in 1v1 situations.


Meh, I think slows are better than ms boosts as a rule, mostly because of how this game calculates them.

Also, IMO, even if Ghost was given the old Surge as a bonus, IMO Exhaust would still be a stronger combat skill for the majority of champs.


No no, I do think slows are better than ms boosts, I like that it's getting a minor nerf.

Why? Think of the phage users, none of them are good right now.
