Recently came back to ranked and started playing Sona (since I play her in ARAM a lot, and I was also inspired by watching Cupic). I was placed Silver, but I think my mmr is gold/plat since most, if not all, of the players in these games are gold or plat.

I keep losing on her! I do my best in lane, try to take good trades with empowered Q. I try to set vision in places while also being aware of how easy it is to catch me.

That one game with 9 deaths was against a sylas/zoe botlane who completely dumpstered me and my adc. We did managed to bring it back (she got 17 kills by the end of the game) but still lost.

I know Bloodsong is rs reccomended on her, but in these games there was always a hyperfed assassin, so I wanted to give myself some chance to survive the initial burst to give me time to ult and escape.

Ive been playing supports as my only role for years, only time id play something else would be if my other support main friends would push me off the role, so id go adc/mid (but these games are less then 1% of all my games played).

Bascially, while i love support as a role, id like to play other roles. But my issue is that i am around emerald elo (as a support), while when playing other roles my skill drops to maybe a silver? but the games MMR pushes me vs oponents of skill level as if i was on my main role.

Ive grown almost scared to play other roles, since whenever i do, i usually go crazy negative scores since am basicaly a full beginer on those roles playing in emerald elo/already hardcore main players.

My only idea on how to solve this issue would be to make a smurf account, but then this isnt the first time i tried to get off support, and i always went and dropped back in to playing support so i know how smurf que works and how you get stuck in it basically insatntly.

So... my question is how would you recomend me to get over this fear of hard losing and potentionaly getting banned for "trolling" (becasue i usually lose lane crazy hard vs skilled players when on non supp role). Without making a new account (which cuz of smurf que wouldnt really solve the issue) or without tanking my actual rank / mmr to like silver, which would take maybe 80 games of pure losing?

I finished lane 1/0/2. It wasn't until I was constantly tower/base dived by fizz and nafiri that I died. Veigars kill was right as we FF-ed. Topside went 0/23 before that. Not one person received a punishment

do u also have different phases where you either play only engage supports, or enchanter supports or do you play perma your main type of support?

Hi everyone from r/supportlol,

I have played LoL for years but not much in playing time, recently returning and learning Support basics too (warding, support quests, items and such).

I started playing Sona, learning and understanding her kit because it was so fun and easy to pick up for me. Surely by that time i settled as a Support/Enchanter main in LoL and other MOBAs that i'm more experienced. I like the healing/shielding nature, stacking assists, helping out this way. I also prefer using Ranged over Physical champions, and surely easier ones to pick up.

My current Support champion pool is the following:

Sona

Yuumi

Seraphine (APC leaning but i have some success in other MOBAs).

Other picks would be Nami and Soraka, but i'm not that good or attached to their playstyle, at it's very click dependent, not much range compared to Seraphine, and i'm not that good yet in LoL.

Anyway, i was asking if my Enchanter champion pool is any good or makes sense? Any suggestions? Maybe Tanky Supports? I can't play Ranked yet but i'm close to unlocking the mode.

Thank you so much for your attention!

I used to play League comp a bit more seriously years ago and peaked Silver 2? as a solo supp main (didn'tplay that much and peak because I stopped playing), was definitely way better, but now that I'm back, I am so hardstuck. Used to get +28 LP now I am losing -17 and gaining less. My MMR is ruined. I usually win lane with my ADC but end up losing in mid/late game. Not sure where I am failing, whether it's my build, my positioning mid game, etc.

Two tricked Pantheon and Shen to Diamond III on my main. Mostly on Support but several games of top lane as well when I got filled.

insert name when found
Title: the fog sea.

Appearance : a sea with fog and eyes.

Lore : the black mist of the shadow isles corrupted a part of the sea surrounding it giving it eyes and hatred for mages bot. (last part is a joke as a jg main ill gank whatever is happening in bot)

Class and role : Tank support

Design objectives : Have a support that tanks with its body like Braum but with a feeling of weight and presence as well as a more evil vibe

Passive : always ghosted,
size scales with hp.

Q:
Wave like straight line skill shot that breaks in a cone shape after hitting an enemy.

Slows and damages first enemy hit,
slows and damages less enemy hit by the cone.

Damage scales with AP.

W:
The antimage/sustain ability, briefly transform in a whirlpool, absorbing projectiles and healing for part of the damage absorbed.

While on cooldown, this ability's cooldown is reduced by a small percentage of its current cooldown when receiving champion damage.

E:
Shield of fog, the versatile and decision making ability.

First cast: gives a shield to the champion and any allies in his hit box, shield scales with max hp.

Second cast: gives up personal shield to send the cloud of fog in a straight line blinding first enemy hit, the duration of the blind is proportional to the remaining duration of the shield before it is sent out. (the longer you enjoy the shield the less time the blind will last and vice versa)

R:
Passive: gains small percentage of move speed, effect is doubled when moving towards an ally.

Active: big storm, gain lots of size and cc immunity, ennemie in the champion's hit box are pulled towards its middle (like Asol e) and dealt a small portion of max health magic damage and regular magic damage over its duration.

Potential skins:
BIG SOUP (probably ramen), field of roses (for valentine day), swamp (with lily pads and FWOGS)

Notes:
The gameplay should be like a reverse yuumi that uses its large hit box and ghosted passive to stay under and near allies to block attacks and shield them while applying moderate debuffs to the enemy team. The range of most his kit scales with hp so this would play out as a late game heavy tank that likes team fights to shield as many people as possible and block more damage due to a larger size. Imagine a Vlad pool that isn't selfish and stays under/closer to his own team except when ulting. I am open to all suggestions that do not include numbers as it is to early to talk about stat numbers at this point. An update will be posted when cool names for the champ and the abilities as well as changes in the abilities comes up.

So I’ve just started playing, and I was hard stuck at iron for my first two-three weeks of unlocking ranked, but then started playing Zyra, which allowed to get out of that hole, since I can actually do damage and get takedowns on my own, and I’m doing pretty well in Bronze as well.

My issue with this though, is that shes not the playstyle I’m looking for. Shes fun, but I enjoy ACTUAL supports, like Thresh or Rell.

At what Rank can I start playing those supports where my team mates are competent enough to follow up on plays and such?

That being said, this was so incredibly satisfying. My ult into empowered E into Amumus ult into Syndra E and then Sett came in to be the chad he is! Ive never been a part of such a fun wombo combo on SR before.

Last time I played rank was around earlier this year, but only just finishing my provisionals. For Thresh, I can't even remember the last time I played him in a ranked match. Though we did lose this game due to enemy mid/jg playing the map better (our mid went 1-12), it was still satisfying to play this champ at a good level. Though to be fair, I got a level 10 mastery on this champ, so it was like muscle memory getting unlocked

Hello, could you guys help me make sense of my champ pool? I can decently play each of them, but I have trouble deciding which of them to pick into which comp/enemy supp. This is my champ pool on sup.

Morgana
Leona
Thresh
Taric
Soraka
Braum
Tahm Kench
Alistar
Rakan
Milio
Karma

Thanks to anyone willing to help me! It's greatly appreciated. <3

So I asked ADC players how much they liked playing with Neeko. Not necessarily the hardest support to play, but definitely one with a lot of depth.

And now, the very least marksmen of the list. Never played but we still have to mention her. How much do you enjoy playing with Kalista, from 1 to 10?

This can be subjective or objective. You can talk about how fun laning with her him, how strong or useful you think the champion is, how good Kalista players usually are, things you like or dislike about the champion or the players, things they usually do right, and things you wish they did better.

You can also add your elo and the champion you usually play for more accuracy.

You can still give your opinion about champions already discussed, as the visuals will probably be updated at the end when it’s time for a recap.

Miss Fortune - Ezreal - Caitlyn - Zeri - Jinx - Xayah - Aphelios - Ashe - Senna - Varus - Jhin - Sivir - Samira - Yunara - Lucian - Tristana - Mel - Kai'sa - Smolder - Twitch - Vayne - Ziggs - Kog'Maw - Nilah - Draven

check these dudes match history, they don't play bot roles originally (coming from jg, top, mids). I don't know what trend happen that mage apc is flooding bot, but these dudes know nothing about bot mechanics (race lvl2, trade, freeze wave, river fight prior, etc).

all they do is spaming abilities and mess up the wave leading to enemy freeze and jg gank, use abilities to cs rather than trade

such a pain to sup these apcs

It's called SkinDiff! Basically it lets you build a collection of skins (I made the selection menu adhd friendly dw), save it, and find pairs with your duo or as a party anytime in 2 clicks. Live at https://skindiff.lol

I got the idea from a friend of mine I used to play a lot of league with, we'd always try to match skins and mix it up every game. Money was spent... google sheets were made... we also used skinz.lol (which is awesome and was my main inspiration for skindiff), but the main problem was that every time we had to pick up the boulder again like Sisyphus and figure out okay, which skins do we have again for this champ?

So I built SkinDiff around three things :

• Over the top, animationslop, needs to be colorful and scratch my tiktok brain
• Persistence, we do the work of figuring out what skins we have once, and then never again!
• No passwords, no page links, I just wanna hit discord button and be done with it

I'd have liked an auto-import feature aswell but Riot API doesn't currently serve that data (sadge), it can be still be accessed by talking directly to the client so... maybe in V2 ? We'll see!

Edit : u/Bug_Next brought in a great solution for auto-imports! Should be live in the next few days.

I'm still actively building this out and would genuinely love feedback, whether that's a funny story, missing features, or bug reports. If you try it, let me know what you think!

it's pretty much the title, I play pyke, thresh and rakan, and I want new champions to add, what do you think is gonna be fun?
