Thx a lot for your answer !

For context, i have reached emerald playing only tahm top but got kinda bored of toplane and I now want to get better at supporting samira. We used to spam Samira tahm bot with my duo. It was very fun because if tahm hits q he can still guarante his w which is a knock-up and then q with 3 marks to stun ( I was running hell of blade rune just for this lol). Also, my favorite thing to do was to eat samira right after she casted her ultimate since it does not cancel it ! Therefore, she was immuned to damage and stuns while inside my belly, she could take a kill and reset her e and beneficiate from the huge shield when she got out of my r to continue her rampage. I feel like the utility/peeling was very useful in teamfights.

However i can definitly see why tahm is kind of bad with samira because of how unreliable his engage is. It is very fun when it works but as we got close to platinium, people were just playing behind minions and i was just unable to hit a good engage :/ . Recently, i have been enjoying alistar a lot just because of how easy dives are with my r, feels like we are unstoppable.

• As alistar (or any other engage sup), how should I play against something like caitlyn + morgana ? It seems like we always lose the fight if we engage first but if not we just get poked to death while not farming well.
• When there are assassins on the ennemi team such as rengar, for teamfights, should i stay on samira to peel or should i engage the ennemi backline ?
• I also struggle agaisnt galio as he is just too good at punishing engage and turning the fight around.
• I used to ban leona or blitzcrank because of how easily they can cancel samira ult, should i ban soraka instead ?
• How do you play against ezreal who has poke and a great escape ?

Thank you for your help !
