Concepts:
even if you do this if your adc doesn't know the game it's still a lost. Applying high mr macro play will not work on low elo especially solo queue period.

More User Perspectives
Recently, jungling is the easiest role because most coin flip games by not finding anything to do besides take their whole camps and rely on their team to not get ganked or for their jungler to do the same and handshake every scuttle, drake, grubs, or whatever. They expect scuttle to be uncontested or need help to contest when they could give and take the other scuttle due to no prio. But instead they coinflip not only a 1v1 but also which lane sacks their gold and exp for their jungler for no reason. Most have the damage at the end of the game, even on Yi or assassins, as a melee engage with low damage like Rell, Leona, ans Nautilus. That speaks volumes more than anything. I don't know why it's been like this but it is the most consistent thing this season and somewhat last season. I mean, my Yi goes 0/4/3 with 7.2 cs a minute with 12,000 damage in a 27 minute game. I honestly might as well take Unsealed Spellbook for a majority of my games honestly to even have chances at objectives. Top lane may be a mess and mid can be at times with the meta shifted drastically but junglers tend to be the most impactful on either playing the game or afk farming the whole game while their junglers plays.
@JustAvgJoe18:24 this Leona is a psychopath
@danh7805I love those tips and strategies, but I have a feeling there is one missing point, since everywhere You point it the way that those tips can makes me climb on my own... There is 4 more people in my team.
@archael7807As a lux supp id say most of us know u should leave tower to ur adc our damage is laughable compared the resistence we give to tower and we should recall to be on top of tempo and hold waves instead of taking them but who gon pay for my storm surge?
@yesnonoyessirLet my adc have tower gold you say? How about, dont trust your adc to handle that much gold.
@HecticNovai Don't know why do i keep watching your videos, I gave up on ranked games long ago and am a diehard ARAM player but keep thinking "what if i started playing normal league again"
@TheWasylatorthis guide came right in clutch. i just dropped from p2 down to g1 lmao.
@JesterezaAll the pros say donβt climb in supp lol climb in something else then rotate into supp at like diamond
@SolomonRasputinI like the editing skills
@fernandocortes10967:40 that renata isnt afraid of thresh, she tries to mirror the enemy adcs position and maybe get a 2v1 out of it, drawing a triangle with her and her adc as base, dont know which "idiot" told her to do that ;)
@Blackrose_0812Somebody give the marketing guy a raise bc Godamn
@RN-xn7etThis sounds great and all, but what happens when enemy support doesn't lane against me and I kill the adc 10 times and my adc is 10-0 but then my top laner is 0-10 and their top laner carries and my adc didn't carry. He played for his top and I played for my adc and I lose
@furoklolI feel targeted
@pierolivierpcHow is he so zoomed out? Is it because heβs spectating the game?
@SlapsrrBecause I'm good at it, uwu
@sonagaming2319A support player's failure to climb is in the name itself. As a support, you are not supposed to support your team by hanging back as they make plays. You will just watch as you slowly lose.
Support your team by dictating the pace of the map and sacrificing yourself that enables them to then make those plays.
WE LOVE SUPPORT CONTENT
@amdounyhamza9518boosted people are the problem
@lausaya7145Listen.
If u r in bronze & silver. Just pick harass champ. Such as Zyra and Brand. But slow item. Burn item. And mundane. And u win for good.
If u r in gold. Pick some sup who is good at both damage and support. Such as Morgana, Janna, lux, Karma.
Some real support champs keep it for Plat and above. cuz ur adc are still a child if ranked below that.
Posturing only works if your ADC has balls too or it ends up being the same bad situation, which is usually the case
@mamaneww0 7 Top Yori (pick into trynda) + 0 7 Annie min 10 I hate Emerald
Menawhile I stomped Ezreal 4 0 (my Sivir)
at 9:00, if tresh doesn't hook the wave as any player above bronze would've done, don't renata/smolder hard lose the trade here? How is it ever a good idea to go up the lane vs lucian/tresh in this situation
@gudule2706tried grinding once and you guys made me from silv 2 to plat 2
@luki1423i watch all these videos and my adc is 1 wave late to lane, what should i do?
@janisgustavianSona players, do not give all the turret gold to ur adc, u actually do something with the gold. Rush Helia and carry
@cupcakkegulpgulpSupport in this game is absolute trash
@BlackFoliageVol1Hardest part of support is knowing if your carries will be able to carry or not. Almost impossible to know but drastically affects your pick.
Hereβs a good example. I was Lux with Jinx vs Vel Koz and Ezreal. By the end of the game I was 9/2 and Jinx was 1/12. Was hyper aggressive when behind and just kept dying even though I was doing a good job at doing damage and zoning.
The next game I got the same Jinx. I was Zilean this time and we faced an Ashe/Senna. Arguably a worse match up because Zilean has good utility but low damage against a double range comp. This game Jinx absolutely cleaned house. The speed ups (to get in or help kite), the slows on the enemies, the second chance from Zilean ult after the enemy unloaded, a stun that does ok damage with the double bomb, Heal instead of Igniteβ¦ that is what this player needed instead of a support that does 75% of an enemies health and all they need do is clean up. It doesnβt make that much sense but it was the reality for this player. Then in the end Zileanβs utility to help people catch someone out of place or slowing a bruiser by 99% to make them useless helped Jinx a lot as well.
Then thereβs other games Iβll play Zilean and he feels completely worthless because no matter what you do your allies donβt do damage or somehow canβt kite someone who is 99% slower than normal.
Everything is in a vacuum. Every role has their things that make them βthe hardest role in the gameβ and βthe easiest role in the gameβ at the same time.
The 3 biggest mistakes low elo supports do are:
1. taking waves. In no world a support should be getting a wave before the team gets their items
2. dying thinking they give less gold than another laner, which they don't. Specially in early game.
3. not helping junglers to secure objectives
10:39 the issue in low elo is if the enemy engage brand the adc would ran away instead of aa
@ulrich-tonmoyevery support main should watch this shit. Whether youβre a support main or not you should definitely watch this one.
@ivanpanganiban4149Me had a Ranked Gold game where
My ADC get hook by red Threst Q over & over again from max Range 10 time (less than 10 min in)
Me ask ADC: Do you know how to Dodge?
ADC replied: What is Dodge?
Me: why is she in GOLD
Was that leona with the control wards agurin?
@zackdgod4680The league community is so frustrating to me. Yall simply cannot go one video without making some sort of joke about your teammates. This is why every league player has main character syndrome I swear
@jamesgraham3789Player most don't like been support they just want to be role top or mid
@inhtuanphong8439I am in desbelief with the smoothness of his ad
@dripblancDamn man... even the thumbnail is roasting me.
@yumyumtofuYet most small things are still team dependant π like the amount of times i held the wave hust for my adc to come push it fast and die again or go help mid push just for them to spam ping and cry about the exp is insane π
@MeiRey007that bard magical E got me lol
@limit22as a support main i can see why some might call it the easiest role in the game
On the other hand, being tied to a dumb adc and being blamed for soo much :( Support is a role in which you have to the mentals prepared!
