As somebody who mained pre-rework Yuumi and thought I was signing up to watch another support slander video here, I very much enjoyed just sitting back and enjoying the game almost as a spectator, looking at everyone’s cosmetics, watching fights unfold, only having to worry about pressing my couple buttons at opportune moments. I don’t want to dash around to avoid attacks like Yasuo or perfectly position my enemy through a wall to dive them under my own tower like K’Sante, I just want to press my 7 buttons every team fight and see how the game unfolds. However the community is so toxic, how dare I say I passively enjoy the game and don’t concern myself with skill or rank.

Yea, i feel like a ton of people out there despise what support ends up being but... i think its fine. it fill a gameplay style for people that dont want to go as hard. And i think thats just neat

I think you generally point in the right direction. 'Being good' has a very different meaning for each role, for League even Tank Supports play totally different than Mage supports. I main Tahm Kench support and I get usually a lot of respect/honors because I can 1v1 people, most supports cant, even the damage orientated, and Tank supports usually never can kill on their own. Tahm is different. I remember playing Naut and Blitz and my PP was actively shrinking because I couldnt kill anyone (whos was not 1/3 HP) on my own.

Just realized my last comment was also telling you that I play TK and how awesome he is.... I play too much Tahm :D. There are even 10 year old videos on my channel playing Tahm :D

[@thatgermanview5721]

They are pretty terrible tho, I realized I need a (audio) script to make a video quite late.

[@JoeKGamingEssays]

10 year old tk videos sound like a blast haha
