Pls no Janna top, mid, jungle or ADC. lol k thx

Quints: Mix of AP Quints and Armor Quints
Marks: 9x flat Armor Marks or 9x hybrid pen
Seals: 9x HP Seals
Glyphs: mix of flat MR, flat AP or mana regen

*If you go 9x hybrid pen, you are committing to a more aggressive laning phase. You should go Spellthief's and not Coin then.

At lvl3, it is possible to get a 2nd pt in E if you don't the passive ms or the slow.

Q is usually maxed last since Q is needed only for utility. Maxing Q increases mana cost.

[theorycraft?]There is a possible W max level order (R>W>E>Q) that allows for more kiting by your AD or more catch potential. Do not do this if you're behind since you need as much of the shield as possible.

CORE:

• Spellthiefs is best start since it gives the most gold, and most damage. Coin is an option for more passive lanes.
  
• Rush Sightstone and Mobi boots. These two items are the core items of most supports and for good reason. You can roam the map and ward properly to defend yourself from ganks and roams, sometimes gank the mid lane and sometimes invade their jungle.
  
• Sweeper is crucial for ward control and look to switch to it as soon as you get sightstone. Upgrade sweeper ASAP when you hit Level 9.
  
• Always have a pink (or two) in the inventory.
  

Highly recommended:

• Aegis and its upgrade (locket) are great on Janna. Makes it hard for AP assassins to blow you up (at least in the mid-game, late game if you get cc'ed and combo'ed you will die). Helps the whole team from AOE champs Its team utility of MR aura and shield active are great. Highly recommend vs champs such as Leblanc, and Katarina.
  
• Mikaels removes CC (not suppression though, tell your carries to get QSS if necessary) and heals for a good amount. Highly recommend vs champs such as Fiddlesticks, Irelia, and Morgana.
  
• Talisman has a really good active to engage or disengage. The build path sucks though. Build towards forbidden idol rather than the nomad's medallion for the CDR. Complete talisman later when you have enough gold for it.
  
• Captain enchantment for more movement speed for your team.
  

Recommended:

• Frozen Heart good armor item for Janna. Good passive. 20% CDR is awesome. (Iceborn Gauntlet may be better, will be tested)
  

Situational

• Mejai's is a great snowball item. It's not worth it buying it if you're behind since you may lose the stacks. The AP allows for more stronger shields, better ult heals, more movement speed on w.
  
• Deathcap Snowball item. Stronger shields, better ult heals, more movement speed on w.
  
• QSS is for very certain situations and champs in which these certain champs with AOE and CC can fuck you with the CC making you unable to Ult and reset the fight.
  Ex. Fid ults and fears you. with QSS, no problem you can ez blow him away. Build QSS when they are actively trying to fuck you.
  
• Twin Shadows if you really need engage
  
• Righteous Glory if you really need engage
  
• Zeke's if locket is built by jungler and team is auto-attack heavy
  

It can also interrupt dash spells! 1 way to separate the good Janna's from the great Janna's.



Laning: Two uses either defensive or aggressive duh...
Defensive: it's used to disengage with the knockup and sometimes interrupt a dash move, usually those that aggro you or your carry.

Ex. 1 Leona E's in. A quick Q can cancel it. This interrupt is one of the more trickier ones.
Ex. 2 J4 E-Q's in. A quick Q can cancel it. Should be easy since J4 flag telegraphs it.

The best position for you to easily Q to cancel their dashes is to position behind the AD.

Q shouldn't be aggressively used as harass. The mana cost is high and when it's on CD, you and the AD are more vulnerable. Usually only use it during ganks, all-ins or cheeses.

Aggressive Q is best used in the following combo.
W + Q: The slow from W makes it easier to land the Q.

Trickiest spell to use as Janna since it requires some experience and knowledge of certain scenarios.

The skill is a knockback and heal.

The heal counters Ignite and other DoT's.

The knockback will interrupt channeled spells such as Katarina R.

The knockback is OP vs certain AOE champions such as Wukong R, Kennen R, Fiddle R. Make sure they get blown away from the team rather into the team. lol

• Time objectives. 5 min red/blue buffs, 6 min dragon, 7 min baron.
  
  
• You want to ward, sweep and control objectives at least 1 minutes before they spawn. Always have 1-2 pinks to really control an area. Don't place them unless you are sure you can defend them adequately or bait with it. lol
  
  
• Always be careful and don't facecheck unless you know it's safe. Don't clear the pink if you could get collapse. You can always clear the pink when it's safe to do so.
  
  
• Go roam when you and the AD back. Usually around mid lane is good to gank the mid laner or ward around the area such as river dot bush and further.
  
  
• Mobi boots preferred over other boots since mobi's give so much good roaming and catch potential. Very cheap boots too.
  

1. Leash jungler, give him shield and couple autos.

2. Go to lane, look to hit Lvl 2 first (1 wave + 3 melee minions). Cheese with unexpected aggression with a Q + auto (shield as necessary) with the level advantage. If they hit lvl2 first back off and wait for wave to push.

3. Make good trades with your E shield.

4. Disengage their ganks and support all-ins with Q.

5. Initiate your ganks or all-ins by baiting them in or W + Q.

6. Ward river or tri as necessary.

7. Control vision with sightstone and sweeper around dragon. Pink an area.

8. Use W passive and mobis to roam fast.

9. Use abilities well in skirmishes.

1. Vision shifts between various places: inside their jungle (if ahead), inside your jungle (if behind), dragon and baron.

2. Peel your ad carry and win. Remember to use item actives.
