No . It ' s not until later today . I ' m just watching tv at the moment ! P <| sep |> I can see how some people have an issue with playing support , especially in lower elo ' s . You do only small amounts of damage , usually just a cc machine , and vision is a huge responsibility . Everyone acknowledges or should that supports have massive potential impact in games . And League supports can absolutely do damage we have BrandVel ' KozZyrawhatever as commonly accepted supports . I personally don ' t think it ' s complicated . It ' s just psychological . People don ' t like playing supportive roles , actual power of the role be damned . I ' ve played street hockey with various friends for many years and we ' ve always had the issue of who wants to play goalie . You ' d be utterly delusional to imagine that goalie isn ' t an impactful position in any way , but clearly that doesn ' t stop the position from being unpopular . The real problem with support is the lack of Real gold income . In Heroes of the Storm which I haven ' t played , so forgive me for any misunderstandings , there are no goldXP differentials the way there is in League , so supports are literally on par with other roles in that regard . Doesn ' t stop support from being the least popular role . In Dota , supports have raw utility that would make League supports blush , and even supports like LichCrystal MaidenEarthshaker can potentially massacre entire teams with a single ultimate . Doesn ' t stop support from being the least popular role . It ' s not about gold income . As someone who played mostly support in Dota I assure you that League supports have a metric ton of gold income . It ' s the very role itself . Even if somehow , supports had comparable gold income to laners and this fact wasn ' t being abused to put carries in the role , we ' d still have support be less popular than the other roles , I ' d put folding money on it . One of the main issues with Lol is that at it ' s core , it is very fucking boring . Safety and low risk high reward strategy is the key to victory . This means that supports who think support should be flashy as hell are just wrong , cause the whole game is boring at its core . This is a complicated topic that could occupy volumes of text on its own . Suffice to say that yes , I believe you are correct in that League is fundamentally boring at its core , but this is independent of the issues surrounding the support role and so I won ' t go further into it here .
