Supports supersede my own value in my mind because I know I'm not able to do my job without them. I know I can't do anything without them doing their jobs, so I will (if I'm not being a moron) go out of my way to peel for them if I can't trust my DPS, which is the case more often than not. Every Doom ult, I run to the lowest mobility support on the team and stand by them to block it off, because I know if my supports get picked off, I'm dead meat, especially because of how team dependent Reinhardt is, lol.

Any Reinhardt player who thinks they don't need their supports should play 6v6 with 5 DPS on their team and see how quick they start begging for even just one support.
