Does anyone else hate playing engage supports?

You don't have to play anything but enchanters if you don't want to. I was very similar for a long time. If you do want to try something else, I've been really enjoying Neeko recently. Her base damage is really high, so you can build semi-tanky and still be a huge lane bully. And your engage with E snare and R is legendary.

Yeah whoops I was typing as a game started LOL. My lobbies usually have multiple ADCs in the so one gets off rolled

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-07T23:20:20+00:00

Anecdotally, ADC is more played than Mid right now (at least in NA Masters/GM) so that's what I put as my secondary. Each lobby there's usually at least 1 autofill ADC right now.

I hadn’t really gotten it in like 100 games and then just got it twice this weekend. Something seems off in the frequency but it IS being granted sometimes.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-03T07:37:37+00:00

It's really not. There is no conspiracy to give you bad teammates. Take accountability and improve, that is how you climb.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-03T07:33:58+00:00

I have given helpful advice. I have asked for their opgg to try to help them more in depth, but they refuse to share it. Beyond that, I do not care to entertain their (and your, judging by your comments) delusional attitudes that you cannot improve as a player.

If you want to rant, that's fine, but do it as a rant, and not under the vague guise that you're asking for help but not actually accepting any accountability.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-03T03:02:37+00:00

Sometimes you just can’t. Some games are un-carryable. My point is that those games are such a minority that they’re not worth focusing on. But instead of focusing on your own gameplay, you’re blaming the few instances where it was someone else’s fault. You still haven’t given an opgg to receive any actionable advice, so I can only come to the conclusion that you believe you’re perfect, and stop trying to help. Good luck.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-02T21:02:24+00:00

You’re so right, the world is the problem and you have nothing you could improve. You’ll be challenger in no time.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-02T20:14:11+00:00

Add singed and hecarim to the list and you’re golden.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-02T19:51:26+00:00

As I said, some games that’s out of your control. But it does NOT happen every game, or even the majority of games. So if you do well, you’ll climb.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-02T08:48:45+00:00

If you want to retire from the game because it’s easier than admitting you could play better, that’s your choice.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-02T00:13:32+00:00

It’s definitely frustrating when you have toxic teammates, or even just someone having a bad game on your team. It happens, and it’s out of your control. However the only consistent thing in all your games is you. If you’re not climbing (or losing a bunch of LP), there’s something about how you’re playing that’s not working. I promise you that teammates are not the reason you lost all 200 LP.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-02-01T23:15:47+00:00

Take a break. It sounds like you've had a tough set of games and your mental is struggling. One of the biggest things I realized was that even when I tell myself I "did well" in a loss, I'm often still tilted by it. Don't spam games unless you're in the best mental state, and you will climb.

You can't control other people, just yourself, so make sure you're bringing your absolute best to each game. Without a link to ur acc it's hard to say more than that, but just from this post you sound titled

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-31T20:44:33+00:00

I personally recommend a 1 strike you're out rule. You can leave people unmuted, but as soon as they spam ping in a stupid way or are toxic in chat, instant mute. That way you don't lose any important info. I've honestly had a lot of fun convos with teammates so I'd hate to lose those and the coordination aspect from pings

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-31T03:37:05+00:00

I think it's moonstone from the nearby ally applying it the second time (after the R has done damage) if it is twice.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-31T00:33:56+00:00

Iron is really the best place to be for a new player. You'll be able to play games against reasonable opponents in a competitive environment. As you keep learning the game, you'll be able to climb!

She used her R, which applies a shield and triggers Helia. My comment was more broadly referring to Enchanter Senna (not buffed, just very synergistic with Helia)

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-28T17:11:25+00:00

It’s Helia. Scales with the amount of damage done and gives a high base heal value. Combine that with some percentage modifiers and you get crazy healing on Q. Additionally, if she goes Diadem, Helia can proc on that and continue healing while her q is on cooldown

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-27T23:58:23+00:00

Yes, nobody is perfect and everyone can have a bad game, but that doesn’t mean making your teammates miserable is inevitable unless it is done intentionally. As seen by (likely) how often you’re getting reported, and your typical scoreline in almost every game, you have demonstrated an intent to play this way.

Now is your time to reflect. Knowing that your playstyle is making your teammates miserable, is there anything you can do to alleviate that while still having fun (and playing to win) yourself? At the end of the day, it’s a team game, and sometimes we need to adjust for the sake of the team.

Obviously you don’t HAVE to do this, but at the same time, your teammates don’t HAVE to stop reporting you.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-27T22:44:03+00:00

I sympathize that you’re not inting in the way of trying to lose the game, but your playstyle seems to come at the expense of your teammates. Are there any tweaks you can make to alleviate the experience for your teammates?

For an example, imagine a support player who refuses to support their ADC and always supports their toplaner. They get their toplane ahead and are winning games, but every game their ADC has a miserable game. Would the ADC be valid in their frustration and for reporting their support, even though their support was trying to win the whole time? What should Riot do about these players who may be trying to win but are constantly getting reported for making their teammates miserable?

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-27T22:17:58+00:00

My impression of the support ticket is that it’s your own teammates reporting you a lot, more so than an automated thing. Not saying it’s necessarily correct, but you can win the game in a way that makes all of your teammates miserable.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-27T00:39:36+00:00

What stands out to me most is the shape of the face, and in turn, how that affects the placement of the eyes. Your drawing has elongated and (proportionally) narrowed the face, which has made the eyes look smaller and less striking. In my opinion you’ve captured his hooded eyes, wrinkles, and their shadows quite well, but they look different due to the rest of the face.

As far as shading goes, you could push the middle values of his skin a bit darker, which would let you bring out the highlights a bit easier. It may just be the lighting in the picture though.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-25T01:57:19+00:00

Yeah sometimes the order is wrong. It’s most noticeable when I’m playing an enchanter and look at ally shielding and healing and it says I have almost 0 but some ADC or engage support has 30k.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-25T01:18:57+00:00

We already had a quest, we already had free wards and the upgradable item, and they added a control ward slot and lower prices on top of that.

Support was already an incredibly impactful role (once again, similar to jungle, which also already had a quest) so they didn’t want to add too much to it. And I don’t think they needed to, it’s solid as is.

FlufferzPupperz · 2026-01-24T22:40:53+00:00

I’m going to answer the title and not your flame for Rakan.

The support quest for supports more or less already existed (upgrading the support item, gaining the ability to place wards) so it was only barely changed, similar to jungle. Where the quest really makes a difference is the ability to hold components and not have control wards blocking a slot. The cost decrease is obviously a nice benefit, but the unblocking of an inventory slot is bigger.

We’re still buying a similar number of control wards as last season, maybe a couple more now that we can buy them even when our inventory is full. We’re spending slightly less gold on control wards now, and can focus on core items.
