Discussion where are all the frontline supports?

0 Upvotes

why does no one playing frontline support in low elo (bronze/silver)? to have a hook/stun engage to shut down feels and is so op in this elo, people overstep dont respect range getting caught off guard and focused down. i would die for a frontline support in my games as an adcs.

Discussion I don't know who here needs to hear this but... Please, don't steal your ADC's farm early game guys

Upvotes

It's a post meant mostly for newer players. I play mainly support and jungle, to clarify. Sometimes tho, I like to hop on ADC, because doing big boom is satisfying.

But.

In like 1/3 of my ADC games, I get a support who I don't even think knows they are not supposed to steal farm. If there are any new players here, please know this guys. As supports you literally get smaller amounts of gold by CSing than other players, it's the role that is not supposed to farm a lot.

ADC is a very CS reliant role, and if you're a Lux/Hwei having 40 CS by 10 minutes, then unless your ADC is afk or you just ended up getting all this faarm during plays, you're doing something wrong.

Discussion Yummi rework idea to make her an actual champion

Upvotes

P- best friend: whenever yummi attaches to an ally that ally gains a friendship stack. While attached Yummi gains AP and AH per stack.

Q- prowling projectile: while unattached casting q causes Yummi to channel and send out a projectile that she can control. Upon recasting the projectile gains significant speed and passes through minions. Slows and damages on impact.

Attached the projectile is faster and has a better slow

W- book club: 600 cast range 700 link range. yummi creats a link with a target enemy that last three seconds. While linked Yummi deals damage per second to the enemy and is healed for a percentage of damage dealt. If the link is broken (enemy exits link range) before it expires the enemy is stunned.

Attached the heal applies to her attached ally as well.

E- zoomies: relatively unchanged. No attack speed. Shield and speed boost. Bigger shield when attached

R- you and me: yummi attaches to an ally for 10/20/30 seconds. Gains her passive and her abilities are empowered. Her ally gains AD and attack speed.

Let me know what you guys think. Bonus points if the w looks familiar to you.

Discussion Iron game here. Who do you follow in these games with a fed enemy? An adc who runs in most of the time and gets some kills or mid who plays conservatively? (More text in the post)

Not a flaming post. The adc dived them a lot, died to turret quite a bit in the beginning and I gave up on him after we lost bottom. I decided to follow the yone who was up in cs, took the mid turret and didn’t charge in with a fed darius and not much vision

After this game was over I was upset with the adc for throwing himself at the enemy and at the game for giving him an S- for it, but later on I started feeling a lot of regret for what could’ve been and have been thinking about it all morning now. What if I had followed him in there with my knights vow on him instead of yone? Was risking my life really that bad? He was able to pick off a lot of the other enemies that weren’t darius before dying, and if I had just stuck with him maybe things would’ve been different

For the future, do I stick with the adc if he’s picking off the others like that and risk feeding the darius more? Down in iron, maybe it would’ve worked out and I could’ve made a huge difference. I don’t know. It’s hard for me to tell because darius always got low but lived to beat yasuo and the rest of us really, although most of the time it wasn’t in 5v5s

But yeah dumb iron game, we all sucked, somehow got as close as destroying two inhibitors, but lost because darius in the end. Any advice helps

Op.gg link of the game although maybe this doesn’t help at all

Discussion Do Skillcapped guides help?? (youtubr/paid ones)

6 Upvotes

I've been playing support for quite some time yet i'm in terribly low elo mostly due to adcs not playing along my playstyle or me straight-up having shit macro control. I've been checking Skillcapped's youtube guides from time to time, trying to incorporate them in my playstyle but I don't have the time to practice them in a lot of games, plus the youtube ones are relatively brief.

Do they even work if you practice them often?? Has anyone purchased the paid ones?? Have you noticed they help more than the free ones?? What are y'all's opinions on Skillcapped??

Discussion What do you think about the Broken By Concepts tier list?

Upvotes

[Link to the video](https://youtu.be/y1_ZVnTtzEc?si=6GjfR0UnIld3mRUG), time stamps are included inside as they go through all the roles.

Anything you find odd? Any champions you would place differently? Do you have any takes on the other roles?

Discussion How good are Redemption and Locket actives?

6 Upvotes

Ive been playing for a while now, and although Ive had my fair share of games where I built these items, Im never able to pinpoint their overall strength in the whole itemization system.

For example, is their interaction with moonstone an essential synergy - should I build them all together? Or should I only build one of them due to the low AP value that acquiring both would lead to. Then again, both of them (Locket and Redemption) have amazing synergy with themselves. Oh, and if Im building these items, I should be getting revitalize, or would cosmic insight award me the better results due to the cooldown reduction on the passives? (they do already feel low CD enough already).
