Does anyone here ever use j4 as a support? I wanted to jungle j4 earlier tonight for practice but alas I was relegated to support. I picked j4 anyways and was very successful with him (I've seen him support before to good success also). He seems like a Leona type support with more utility and mobility but less hard cc. He does a boatload of damage though along with the cc.

Also Kiss in his Plat promo series, gdlk WHO DO NOT USE WHOM IF YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO USE WHOM What would be the correct wording if one wanted to use "whom" here? "Is there a consensus on whom Jinx loses to?" or something in that vein? (I'm not answering the dblade thing but about everything has been stated anyway.). To whom does Jinx lose to?

"Ward limitations make people depend on their team since they're not allowed to make it their focus anymore."
Either Riot suck at communicating their ideas and goals to people, or I've got that creeping feeling that the vision reduction in s4 prospects is more a side-effect of their changes than an intended goal. You're not limited because Riot wants vision to be (if the team pool resources you can still ward the shit out of the map—they're actually making removing vision harder with the pinks changes), you just get told "you can't do that anymore, so that you can't be forced to anymore!" Oh, yeah. Thanks so much for the "choices" you're so proud of when you do PR regarding your design decisions.
It's like removing vendor machines from schools, not for health issues, but so bullies can't force other kids to buy them soda. So I hope it's just Riot sucking at communicating their goals (they'd really have to suck hard at it to fail to mention they want to reduce vision).

wtf.......limitations on how many wards you can put on the map at one time?
WHAT?!
....That sounds fucking awful
Worst part of that post:
Besides, having less control over vision as an individual player, I am quite excited about the concept of having items on my supports for once
NO. YOU'RE THE BITCH OF THE TEAM. SUPPORTS DON'T BUY ITEMS. THEY BUY WARRDDSS.
Shit dude, they're taking out the spirit of why Support is fun play. Support is fun because I can beat people on other teams who buy shit Aegis or shit Shurelias or shit gp5s and just buy wards, wards, pinks, oracles, wards, wards, wards and give team access to EVERYTHING because only god knows how many times people in Silver get caught.

No, ideally you'd want to be able to buy both (most certainly would need lowering the cost of support-oriented items since regardless of you income it's hard to have "too much vision/too many wards").
Currently, if you have more vision you win and your income is likely too low for most items anyway (even getting more than Sightstone and one of Shurelya/Locket/etc. is rare unless game's a killfest) so people pool all their resources towards vision. There's still the choice though, but "social pressure" forces vision.
Riot "solves" this by removing the choice: you can't have more vision. Which means that you can't get asked to provide more vision (which was the goal; ideally people would be educated but we all know how likely it is). But you can't decide on your own either. Sure, you've still got that gold, so you're going to spend it, and since you can't buy vision you'll buy items. Because you don't really have a choice anymore.
So we're back to the "either they wanted to reduce the amount of vision you can give anyway and they failed at communicating it (plus if the team coordinates you can still have a ton of vision so it doesn't even work), either they believe cancer can be cured by painkillers since you don't suffer anymore" eg. bad design.
I'm curious about the bushes tweaks too, since now being limited in pinks and not having oracles anymore (currently being tested) you really don't want to get screwed by these 2 pixels and the banana bushes.

lol I always don't buy wards and then buy support items and laugh at supports with no items and teamfight presence and occasionally pinging to back when people walk into areas that probably have 5 guys in them.

I'm excited about these changes xD

So I´m trying to learn ADC (or well, get better at it), and wondering what picks besides the jinx/caitlyn/corki trend you guys like. Currently I´m thinking tristana/varus/twitch, but also considering Ashe (dat arrow). What do you guys think? Is Lucian worth a shot? What about Sivir, she seems sort of strong versus Caitlyn, but I´m unsure if good Cait´s will poke me out of lane.

In czech it can affect how things are spelled though so it makes sense.

Don't play sivir unless you are masochist.Lucian after the q change is actually pretty nice.I'd suggest tristana cause she is really fun.Having engage is always good though since you can't rely on your teammates to do it.

Tristana is easily my favorite ADC to play, but she still just doesn't seem all that strong despite being buffed like 4 times. Makes me sad.

Sir, AD Tristana mid is amazing, I don't know what you're talking about.
