Err, I highly doubt that. In fact, if I recall correctly, there are 30-something million active LoL players worldwide which is not even half of Germany's population.

For example, when seiging towers or split-pushing where do you like the wards to be? When you're trying to secure Baron, where would you want the wards? As an assassin player, what allows you to pick people off easily?

30 million people gets you 42nd worldwide and 9th in Europe.

Only time I ever saw a Lux support be useful is because her lane snowballed and she ended up with all the kills, which made her more more APC.b than a support.

Are there any other (specifically) Chinese/Korean junglers with a similar style as Meteos? Insec used to take a whole bunch of farm. Though it wasn't as much and, if memory serves, it was due to heavy taxing.
Nobody goes Paul Bunyan mode like Meaty-O's.

Meteos treats lanes as part of his jungle route

Meteos is like xj9 only more likeable, and doesn't carry as hard

O_o
Anti-CC shield that cockblocks popular CC supports bot, prevents ganks from champions dependent on single target CC, and an ultimate that works very well as a peel for your ADC, on top of the bind. There's also the MR shred, but it's minor. Morgana support crushes Leona lanes or Vi jungles, and I would characterize her as a niche support to the same degree as Fiddle. Her matchups against range supports are much more hit or miss, but against melee supports, she does extremely well. I mean, consider Morgana as a support vs a Nautilus jungle. She can basically invalidate his entire kit minus the W, which makes the lane ungankable for him.
Lux has the bind, a (weak) shield, and a slow/bush checker. Her ultimate is purely for damage, not utility, so unless she snowballs into enough AP, she's pretty meh as a support.
Also, Teemo mid is much better than people give credit for, despite the nerfs that were directed at it awhile ago.

Also, Teemo mid is much better than people give credit for, despite the nerfs that were directed at it awhile ago. Lux's shield isnt single target like most other supports that I have seen though. So it nullifies a ton of damage (particularly AE damage). So while 1 person it might be weak, when it hits 4-5 people who wouldve been hit by AE that is REALLY strong. Thats upwards of 1400 damage absorbed from 1 ability.
EDIT: Oh, it can also hit twice.

So when does the s3 rank q end? I've been knocking on gold for a while and I just got placements, also have they announced placement awards like last year's janna skin?
|
Not to mention Lux passive and much better bind than morgana. Also, her aoe much more useful than tormented soil. Lux probably not optimal as a support in highest tier of play, but if you want to carry as a support she's probably one of the best supports to do so.
