If you don't like nukeduck, I'll trade for him. I'm weak at mid, I was snake spot and there was a run all in between my picks one round.oh fuck, draft was tonight? God dammit. Time to see how awful my auto draft was. >.<
edit:
Auto draft gets me Nukeduck? Piglet? Airwaks? Omg, shoot me now please.
Get the idea out of your head that support, is only there to support the carries. YOU have to carry the team if you want to get out of bronze/silver/gold, don't depend on some asshole doing it for you. Learn Lulu. Her poke is just so fucking ugly bot lane the entire phase of the laning. Also Brand is a great one to learn and stomp bot lane. Just build him AP carry and you will just destroy them. A lot of lower ranked people just have no idea how to counter a high damage/poke support. Wreck botlane and then roam and help pick up kills/assists to roll the other lanes.I like playing support, and I'm bad so I'm stuck in Silver.
Any tips on climbing out a silver as support?
I'm giving up on support. Too many games lost because the ADC can't play ADC.Pretty much what he said about support. Support is so different now than it was. Whenever I play it I always go ap (annie or lux) and carry hard if I have to. Typically by second item I know if I have to start prioritizing damage over utility. Also, if the team picks all squishys ill pukl out alistar or Leona and go pure health.
I hadn't played league in quite awhile and am pleasantly surprised how much they enabled supports to carry. The support role could always make huge plays to help tilt the game, but now they can build items to carry if needed.
I think your mentality "welp I'm support so dependent on others" is what's keeping you in silver. Every role can carry... Maybe support is a bit more dependent on helping others win their lanes but that's still a carry. Focus on getting ur adc ahead and then rotating mid to help there...just make sure ur adc is aware when u rotate up.
That's exactly why I picked him and why I'm investing so much time in mastering the fundamental skills.Don't play Draven as your first adc,he's like the most micro intensive adc in a role that's more micro intensive than any other.
Exactly why I'm working on mastering cs farming.Even then, adc is very hard to carry from imo.ADC's strength is based on gold to buy items. If you are behind it's hard to catch up.When I was playing a very solid champ to play out of the top lane was Sion. Build him like a tank with some damage and you can just gank/tp all over the place. Shit is probably different now though.
