You can easily get an 800 damage shield which is fucking stupid.
barrier gives shield
bigger = better

You are such an American.In post 31755, MrZepher wrote:BT has better synergy with Barrier for damage negation because lolmassiveshield
Yeah, I figured. That one was sarcastic but tone is hard to get from posts.In post 31771, Iecerint wrote:The argument that you can be 100-0 without barrier but not with it is a valid difference between them, but it has nothing to do with the BT shield AFAICT.
pedit rofl
myko gets it right. I actually thought he was agreeing with Zephyr in 31747 originally, though. ^^~:
You could think twice before you talk nonsense, please. It's not that hard.In post 32397, JasonWazza wrote:To be fair what they needed to do to make her more support worthy without being a solo laner is change her fucking Q, because it's not supporting at all.
Suppose they made that change and we go to probably the most common matchups currently: vs thresh and leona. You go to lane, leona uses targons twice, adcs hit creeps, second lane comes in, next three creeps get killed: who's done it first? If thresh even gets a bit better and he flays the wave knowing that you can't do a thing about it, he's got it. They get their gap closer and if they hit that, it's first blood and the end of your botlane. The fact that they can outpush you (having your adc be an unknown) means you have to play to catch up in the game already. You lose dominance from the get go. So that sor's q hits creeps would be an asset lv1. There's probably no way to outpush a lane with a q-spamming soraka.In post 32401, Siveure DtTrikyp wrote:I actually agree with wazza.
If they'd just made her Q not target minions, support soraka gets a slight buff and solo-lane soraka gets nerfed kinda hard.
Thank you Brandi!In post 32402, Brandi wrote:Also grats on Plat Myko, you deserve it buddy <3
Well, she doesn't get played in lcs, so you don't get to see her a lot. Has less to do with level than simple playing time. Might have been a long time ago (I think before you started playing) that Brandi posted in this thread that one should start q on soraka if one played her. I didn't at that time, but tried it then, just to see what it did. Last year somewhere lemonnation had a cute build in soloqueue on soraka that I wanted to try out, so I got to see the matchups a couple of times, played maybe 10-20 games in total on soraka? I could have been silver as well and have tried that to play her given what I saw from lemonnation, krepo and what brandi talked about in thread.

my account was gold 4, and when I won my promos, it jumped to gold 2.
whoa??!!!!!
Does it normally do that?

I think RayFrost had me listed highest at Silver III, so I beat everyone's expectations.

I've been debating it for a while, and sort of like supporting, and my "pre-investment" into the game was grabbing Nami, Morganna, Soraka, Annie while they were on sale. So while you all at the top yell back and forth, what's the best way for me to get STARTED learning support?

Which means I rarely have a reason to choose Sej/Naut over Xin or Kha. Which makes me sad, cause I love those first two so much, but can't justify picking them unless i'm last pick and there are no tanks.
