Sometimes when I'm playing support, I feel like a single mother of a bunch of ungrateful toddlers, constantly running off into different directions, heading towards certain death.

[@premieress2623]

accurate

[@hippiedude2232]

Yup, everyone hates support players... But thats not exactly a secret when 1/2 the time jungle will flame support because top is 0/22/0

[@isaacribeiro6823]

That reminds me of a video I watch from Kingston gaming veigar top at 18 minutes he just complain about lulu not being able to kite meaning not a single support knows how to kite because they are support. I mean alot support players should work on fundamentals like Cs and kiting specially if they play range alot but there is way more adc thing kiting is only forward.

[@hippiedude2232]

@@isaacribeiro6823 Support is just a really technical position, and not many can appreciate the nuances of playing a character who might as well have 1hp and be armed with a wet noodle (obviously not all support characters fit, but most do). Oh and melee support characters, don't even get me started on how frustrating it is to have to dance around skillshots for an hour just to gain half a pixels worth of ground knowing full well it's going to be another hour before you can finally be close enough to flash in and do anything. It's always hilarious looking at the end game stats and seeing you carried a bunch of toxic idiots tho. Like one time I had an ADC who kept just leaving lane to dick off literally every time the enemy went to engage, so after getting blasted 3v1 under tower I decided to leave bot lane and just gank mid on repeat. Whole team flaming me for dying twice in bot and abandoning it, but I didn't die again and had more kp than the rest of the team put together, and literally turned a losing mid lane around so jungle could focus on an equally fucked top lane. the braindead ADC ended up leaving the game towards the end, but I managed to make an opening for our sion to ult in and smack the nexus.

Great vid. Loved the explanation of your roam to mid. GOAT, baby!

[@i0kiVids]

Glad it was helpful!

[@i0kiVids]

@@Cp-yx4ci If you watch the explanation I had, it's all very sound reasoning for why I was mid. I'll write them again here for you -- 1) the wave was pushing away from our melee midlaner into a ranged midlaner, hard to crash alone and we want to play for the crash 2) he was the only lane vulnerable to a gank so I'm preventing that 3) playing for dive was possible if I landed W into his Q3 4) botlane was already crashed so there's no XP for me to get 5) sharing mid wave XP doesn't mean we split it 50/50, it's a net gain for our team's amount of experience if two people share it vs. 1 soaking all of it.

I usually roam mid before grubs to help push so they can roam to grubs and they flame and never come grubs. Or if i roam to grubs my jungle doesn't even go anyways so i gotta waste time walking back. Terrible jungles this season

Just for the record, because you never stated the number: the team gets an overall 26.73% extra exp when sharing, so its still good for the game. Was a bit disappointed that he didnt apologise for the flame :D

[@jacekr9705]

It should be obvious for everyone with some brain cells, that 2 players in 1 lane =/= splitting exp in half. If that was the case, when bot lane reaches lvl 6, the midlaner would be lvl 12 at the moment (or even higher due to the fact, that minion waves have shorter road to go to mid than to the side lanes). Such scenario literally NEVER happens!

As a support main, it's pretty easy to push without stealing creeps. Only rarely is it necessary to steal creeps, and you definitely indulge more than necessary because you feel you have to carry as the smurf, which is totally fine and I get that. It's not that hard to know where your place should be, but I do agree that carries are usually too stupid to understand when the support helping them shove mid for example is important and for their own good.

everyone understands xp splitting grants slightly more total xp to the team but what supp players dont understand is that more gold and xp on one fed team member is way more valuable than splitting it with useless players even if it grants slightly more to the team. if you're playing mid correctly you wanna keep split xp to a minimum

[@christianloveland7353]

I agree with the shared gold thing except for those times rengar flash ults for the KS. Pretty sure that's a net loss.

[@Wadenbeisser24]

ioki you gotta try nauti, my build seems busted. You go aftershock, shield bash, second wind, revitalize nothing too fancy here. but also cheap shot and ingenious hunter. you rush for tabis and unending despair, take bloodsong, from there you slap some kaenic if they have some fed mages, if theyre weak just grab the mdef sunfire cape and then you build your supp items, maybe a frozen heart, finish it off with a sundered sky if you feel like it. Its so much fun. You basically hook them and solo kill with ignite or fight 1v3 long enough for your team to arrive.

[@danielclv97]

Awesome carry i0ki, definettly the kind of games were I wonder how tf rito makes match-making when they give me these kind of teams like 4/5 games, while the solo-que enemy team coordinate 4 and 5 man ganks bot, and my laners still somehow loose their respective lane while the junglers is fixed on full-clear. I think the reason for the players toxicity is because, 5v5 lol has a limited amount of fun, and players play for fun more then for wins, especially in lower-elos, and this is why arena is such a good game, everyone can have fun, even when they are loosing. They also tend to be humans between the age of 18-30 years, getting home after a not-so-fun life and work-style, maybe most of them are single, and above all, the match-making of rito just sucks so much. I feel like if they just make players play with random players rather then considering a useless MMR system they would make a better job. BTW I see toxic behavior for my 2nd role after support also, jungle, like it's my fault the top laner dies while I'm doing dragon and I ping him to be carefull of ganks because I see the enemy jungler top. These 2 roles must be the most flamed roles in the team, followed by ADC, mid and top.

[@BudgetNugs]

I play all lanes and I most consistently see jungle derping their job the hardest. All of them are more concerned with JG exp than winning lanes or kill exp. Same jungles that never soak exp in lane.

[@ilse_22]

@@BudgetNugsbro u are trolling with that statement. speaking as a jungle main with years of experience, they rly rly hard nerf exp gains from getting kills and we are seriously forced to farm a lot in season 14. same concept as this video, laners expect us to be everywhere but yet complain when we are behind, underlevelled and underfed. I started climbing when i played selfish hyper carry junglers instead of utility junglers for the team in the current season to diamond

[@jbpfailorsbest6985]

I mean i mostly agree, but if you are playing support you should not ksteal if you see that your adc or mid can easily get the kill since most of the time the gold is more valuable on the sololaners/hypercarries, a whole nother point is ksecuring where the person could potentially get away. Obviously all that doesnt really matter when a challenger smurf is playing in pisslow but they dont know you are gonna carry and most of the time support just doesnt do that hence shouldnt take the kills

I often focus on warding and providing opportunities as best as I can to my support but the explanation was so eye-opening for me. As I don't know what to look for, it gave me goals to look for in my modest progression.

[@BuffPotato68]

Why do you never get essense reaver? As senna gets lifesteal after 100% crit it increases your sustain and spell spamming

[@didacosred9427]

I don't think they necessarily hate supports, it's more of an ego boost, something like "I am the Top, mid, whatever, I am more important than you even if you have a big bounty, because unless you are able to kill or CC them for 5s you aren't as needed". I am not the first person to flash in front of an ally to protect them unless they are decently strong but people need to stop thinking that support are playing "for you", unless you're Yuumi you are most likely playing for the team and the game, not to kill the fed target

[@BookNookNoggin]

I don't think people hate support taking kills as much as a mid lane not one hitting everyone, a top lane not split pushing until reaching their nexus or a jungle being everywhere every time and also taking objectives. I'm not a high rank player but what I mostly see is just people blaming others for their mistakes. In those cases I just /mute all and that's the end of the story, but I guess in higher ranks it's not possible/recommended.

I don’t hate you, i really like you

[@Tremeshan]

Players think that supports must do the absolute minimum to generate the absolute maximum impact possible to push them just enough over the brink selflessly while they get ALL the benefits and you should get nothing even if it’s hurting the team because fuck supports, you should be supporting them to make them feel good about themselves. Oh and btw, no mistakes allowed, because apparently we support mains are robots, slaves to their will. It’s so funny when 40-something percent winrate adc flames me, a 59% support expecting me to do literally everything to win the lane and then griefing the match out of pure spite for not dying with them when they rushed to their certain death because of their primal animal aggression some adc’s develop in low elo. “It worked that one time, so it should be working every time! It must be my support’s fault for not doing idk-what to win the game for me while also making it look like I’m the carry! Boo-hoo”

Firstly I don't know how you kept your cool there, what mental fortitude! :) this is why I can't play in anything less than a 4 stack. I'm just terrified of this happening. I would believe all their false pings and doubt myself. Secondly I think this is actually one of the saddest games I've watched. You out did yourself but the team dynamic was highlighting everything that is wrong with the league community. We love the game but we are often flawed people. Maybe the MF was having a bad day. Maybe their partner broke up with them for not finding the right target in their bush?? ;) (aecond edit - Yone what a good guy for the open mind. But also, he was going to report you?1 oh hell naw bro!? really, for briefly going into lane and helping them? madnesss I say).

playing support is to know how to ignore all spoiled entitled little brats that want your attention to spoon feeding them while trying not to step on their massive ego. If you kill someone its called out as "ks" EVEN if that action being one to kill them. Save a person by killing an enemy that would kill your team player = KS -> its insane. But if you fail to protect them...yelling in anger how lame you are. OR warding...almost no one in league understands that each player can put ONLY 3 wards at one given time. How can you ward everywhere if you can only have 3 wards existing at one time....theres more things but i got only these that were on top of my head.

I am so terrible at Senna. . . I just can't figure out how to play her like you do. I main Karma, Zyra, and Maokai. I'd love to pick up an AD support, I just suck at them.

This game is the *quintessence* of why I'm refusing to play support at the moment. Because Karma is my favorite champion and she's actually broken as a mid laner ATM. Tbh: I can't last hit to save my life XD But at least you can waveclear once u got at least Forgotten Chapter. Still better than getting flamed for hard carrying the game as support all game long, when you win in the end

i play support because i like the verbal abuse

[@dharma4248]

Supports have the lowest budget in the game, supports get the greatest percent difference in budget/value relative to the other team's support from kills. Supports are somehow the only players who don't think KSing is real and don't get mad about the 150 gold difference between an assist and a kill. Pyke players are the only exception and it's only because they want to give YOU the kill gold too!
