              ^ That's a seriously weird list Since Sven CK BH Magnus are above Lina, Lion Kunkka

              casual gamer

                sd is absolutely top pick for both teams in any game with luna in it (every game she isnt banned)

                so sd is the best support hero in the game basically. i have never seen sd not get picked within 2 picks after luna

                  you know lycan is a carry right?

                    have you ever saw these heroes in 7.00 5.5+ rmm rankeds without losing their lanes/game

                    Cheap Laugh Guy

                      that's not the problem. were you ranking them by support value? if you did, Sven is already weird in there
                      Have you ever seen more than 1 out of ten games a 5.5k RMM Rankeds do support Sven and Magnus?

                        i think lions at least decent. the respawn talent is ultra cancer

                          i have seen support magnus in 5.5k rmm iirc, that hero is so fucking stupid

                                in my list rubick and sd are so far from S cuz IMO, a situational pick should not be overrated, shadow is picked only when illu ally/ foe is in the game. Rubick need usefull thing to steal (not necesary ultimates) otherwise, any stun is better than him.

                                                      sd is absolutely top pick for both teams in any game with luna in it (every game she isnt banned)
                                                      so sd is the best support hero in the game basically. i have never seen sd not get picked within 2 picks after luna

                                                      I can confirm this as a pesky Luna spamming peasant.

                                                      I am spamming Luna back to 4k and then spamming omniknight to low - mid 4k.

                                                      I ban clock since 3k do not seem to work well against him, but SD is not picked often either, but people in 3k play Clock better than sd, so if someone picks sd there are odds they are not very good with him.

                                                      SD is an amazing support that I will be training on when I get to 4.1k

                                                          I say keeper of the light Lots of mana and Death horses I would say he's Some what hard to kill but. I can be wrong. Don't forget his Mana leak. Keeper is Fun to play support Nonetheless.

                                                            Phoenix is the best support this patch.

                                                                      Thank me later with the 88% win rate with those picks alone.

I tried solo supporting with it but the birds are harder to land than a Mirana's arrow, you'll lose lane along with your carry before 3 min mark. Sun Ray takes a melee carry to hold the target which you can't have every game, Slark, LS, Troll...
