But her Snowdrop set is sooo awesome.
Then again I love all of Anuxi's sets. She's easily my favourite when it comes to the Worskhop items etc.

Another reason why I pick support as well as just enjoying it. At least in my bracket there are quite a few people who are just atrocious at support, they're not in the majority of players but they damn well aren't the minority either. Stealing farm, no courier, no wards, no flying courier and poor item choices in general. I don't really trust others most of the time to do it well if at all.
I kinda wish the next hero tutorial valve do is about playing support and really hammers in the basics.
And that goes both ways. You'd think it's the support job to babysit you and take 99% of the enemy hero health just so you can right click and take the cash.
Stop being an egocentric bitch and play the game as it's supposed to. You have to deny creeps as well, buy wards as well if you must. It's not all " rage and kill". You're not the sole person playing the game....
There's no need for insults.

Hmm speaking of which are there actually any good support guides somewhere on the internet?
At least most of them I've read only cover the absolute basics.
Here is a great guide on warding (it is ALOT to read) http://www.team-dignitas.net/article...de-to-warding/
I belive warding is the first step you should learn when supporting
There is couple of good guides http://www.youtube.com/XVRogueGaming

Another way is to google "warding", "de-warding", "neutrals stacking", "pulling creeps", "support items" or something like that. I guess the rest (like babysitting and setting up kills for carries) can't be learned from guides.
his point still stands, there just as much bad carry players as there are supports (and to be honest, supports DO have it harder in unorganzied pubs) and blaming supports that need to get the money for wards/dust/smoke etc somewhere for everything isnt really gonna make more players play supports. When your average carry is capable of 60+ creep kills at 10 minutes, then you can start expecting your average support to do more than "just deny a creep wave." As long as those carrys are happy with 30~ they dont have a right to complain.
Also its easier to just blame support for bad pulling, when carry cant even react properly and play more defensively/offensively depending on how your support plays and pulls. I had tons of games where carry just blankly stares at the creep HP to lasthit and doesnt react to anything, the worst was when i was playing nyx with gyro and we had some lousy soloer against us, I gave the gyro opportunity of atleast 4 or 5 kills in first three minutes if he wasnt damn slowpoke and not reacted to pings 10 seconds later... atleast their soloer had like no gold since he was afraid of the gyros barrage alot more than he needed to and just stayed way back... which would have been fine, if the gyro atleast could lasthit at all when uncontested, but he finished his boots in like 11 minutes or so...
Am I the only one ready for a TI4 battle bonus? All the points I'm not getting anymore!
I wonder which Champ should i play cause there a lot O_O
It does feel off without it. As if I'm getting almost no BP's at all.

Thanks I'll look into all of these.
Atm I know pretty much all of the basics including giving the carry solo exp when it's safe, running off to stack etc etc. My problem is execution and keeping it consistent as I've had games where I've felt useless and times where I've given myself a good pat on the back.
Just played a game as Enigma, teammates were Ursa, PA, Naga and NYX. I started by buying wards and courier, upg the courier asap. Had to share jungle with Ursa, tried to afford mek, still after 6 minutes they started to yelling about wards. I have to find a team to play with.
I am free to play at ru/eu servers in a 30-40 minutes. If anyone concerned add me on steam http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198012374712/

The only thing you can really buy to prevent perma bashes is dodge and fun fact: the item to counter dodge has a bash on it.
What would you say to such an item?
