then again, the nuances of support role is much more underappreciated and usually less flashy on non-thresh champs than pointguard/midfielder.

The supports are underappreciated myth is getting old.Should try to find something new and real.


it's not a myth lol.
it's the least flashiest role of them all (besides the maybe tanky top meta these days but most people realize the value of tanks)

up in the highest level, of course everyone for the most part appreciates the support. but at the lower levels everyone just assumes the worst player should play support and if a good support actually makes a play, a lot of the time people don't understand the impact that support made.

Mmmmm... I disagree. Supports make very flashy plays, probably more flashy than anyone but mid imo. Just watch some Koreans on Annie Thresh Leona Blitz Nami or Ali. It's very noticable and flashy.

Perhaps that's the wrong word? I dunno.

Most people up to low/mid d1 think the same tbh.Maybe the reason you don't get complimented is that a lot of support mains think they made a big play when it was nothing special at all?

I get appreciated alot as a support. Playing leo/annie/morg i make alot of plays and people often comment on it if im having a good game. I had an enemy lose its shit (in a good way) over me saving ez with a shield last night and dont even get me started on people complaining about my annie, that bitch just straight up carries with no farm. EDIT: Im in silver.

Or maybe is when the adc makes a double o triple kill the game shows a flashy message, but when the sup saves a couple of team members or makes a triple kill posible, the game shows nothing. In the final score the people says "adc 12-1-4 gg" no one says "sup 1-1-20 gg".
Just for fun

Yesterday I watched Maknon play Teemo and Nami mid, and today he's 12-5-8 as Jayce. What.

I'd make a lot more plays as support if I didn't forget about Talisman during the fights. Before and after it's fine, but I tend to focus to much on my positioning/getting in range of my allies to think of it during the fights (eg. my positioning on them is crap).
My Lulu in general is... @_@ I tend to do good stuff when I'm positioned well, but I'm out of position (eg. too far to the side, esp. when people dive hard and I end up walking to the enemy frontline to get my ult off) too often and I do very badly when behind (dying a bunch), so my overall win ratio and efficiency plummets.

Leona is an alright match-up, but Lulu's animations really hurt her, as in you may as well reduce her Q/auto range by 25-50 in exchange for instant animations, so it's hard to leverage that to harass Thresh and Annie or marksmen with 550- range. Tends to make you take a bunch of damage against these supports (Thresh because E passive is strong, Annie if she runes some AP like I often see) unless you only Q, and then you're oom before you've dealt any significant amount of damage.
Makes me really dislike spellthief edge on her, the damage doesn't make up for the lack of sustain at all.


Maknoon goes afk, he says "0K I be right back", screen fades to black and he writes "its not fap time idiot" on it. Twitch chat getting to his head prob.

I agree with you. Supports get the recognition they should be getting, if what they're doing is good. That's why good supports shine so much more compared to mediocre supports that might play the champion well, but does everything else poorly (or vice versa).

So who is our resident Garen enthusiast? I haven't touched him in a while and was wondering how he stacks up against the current toplanes. Tips for builds? Or just in general ^.^;;

Supports get the praise they need. with s4 supports being monsters compared to the previous 3 seasons those good at the support role can have more of an influence on the game than before by being able to contribute with damage as well as their usual roles of warding/ward clearing/peeling/engaging. With the extra gold they have they should either stack up on the good active items or get damage (based on what their team needs) and should actually be carrying team fights if they play right. I liked being ward bitch in s3 but s4 support isnt' bad or anything. I'd say it's actually right about where riot wanted the role to be.
Hey! How you doin'?

bc/lw optional

bc is good lategameish especially, lw is good at any time but at earliest after your first tank item (usually sunfire/bv sometimes hexdrinker+giants)

Well obviously you want a Haunting Guise ASAP. After that, I typically go for a Madred's Razors followed by a Runaan's Hurricane. What you build after that depends on the matchup; sometimes I opt for a Mejai's Soulstealer, other times I get a Twin Shadows. Regardless at some point you'll want a Tear, which is really good on him because you can spam his spells since he has no mana costs.
What fun is it being cool if you can’t wear a sombrero?
