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.

Yeah you're borderline trolling, lux is a z tier support. Correct pick once every three million games. You put support in quotes cuz you know what you're doing isn't really it.

Lux is the only champion I have that can fulfill a support role. When doing solo queue you dont always have a choice.

Soraka, Janna, Taric, Blitz, and Sona are all the same price or cheaper than Lux and are better normal Supports. You have no excuse not to own a "real support" champion if you're playing ranked.

I am level 19.

Oh.

Then why are you worried about playing a support? At that level play whatever the hell you feel like regardless of position.

To prepare myself for ranked as best I can

If you lean how lane control, minions and auto-attack harass works then you'll have a good foundation to start with.

Well, I guess I have a good foundation so far... I have high expectations of myself though when it comes to games.

Well, you only need about 6m people to be top 20. It's definitely not France/Germany level though.

You can apply a lot of things you get from playing other lanes when playing Support. 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?

6 million people places you at 112th worldwide (out of 242) and 22nd in Europe (out of 52).

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

Anyone is a good support if you're a man.

Not teemo.

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.

Finally getting a chance to catch some of the quarters (Imma watch VODS of semis later), but damn Meteos jungle style is so fun/interesting to watch imo. Refreshing to see imo rather than the heavy gank/camp style and/or + Mobi boots style.

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.

Not teemo.

In the IH thread you were arguing Lux support was better than Morg support.

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.

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.

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.

Gold+ will get the Victorious Elise skin.
Silver+ will get a permanent ward skin.
Also you will get a border+profile trim based on your division, like last season
