    Server : SEA
    Position 4/5 player
    Im 3.2k started with 2.4k , and recently i dropped from 3.2 to 3k
    i always got teams that wants mid and carry and sometime 4 cores and they always blame the supports for not ganking or warding when im the only one that supporting the 4 cores.
    I been watching pro plays for support on how to improve as well
    do u guys have any advice for me? T^T

      If you have 4 core in team, stick to the core that play well and help him carry the game

        Yes i did , but they are uncooperative most of the time and sometimes they try to troll the game its hard to support these kind of players x_x

        Melt

          "the one who plays well"
          that means you dodge teh trolls and the uncooperative ones

          for example pick lich. get frost armor early. go around and apply it to every core. the one who says "ty" or uses chatwheel is your man. be his shadow for the game. make him have a great game, snowball hard and run over everybody. he will ask you to commend him afterwards ofcourse because he clearly won the game on his own and you suck. +25 for you anyway.

              Dont play support. It is bullshit on our bracket! It is like suicide.

                Mute players who insta blame supports when they feed, or lose a lane. You are supporting in a toxic bracket, so be ready to mute often. Ward based on how the game is going and if you are a solo support don’t pick a greedy sup or don’t be a dipshit who rushed Midas or brown boots aghs. Get utility and wards.

                            Some tips:

                            1. Don't pick rubick. There are many alternatives which are easier to execute resulting in more game impact. Nukers and disablers are usually a safe and effective option. My staples (when i play support) are lion, lich and shadow demon. Find your niche heroes, absorb how pros play them from video guides and replay analysis, and practice those heroes to learn how to fully exploit their potential in different game scenarios.

                            2. Mute toxic (don't tell those players they are muted) and be active in communicating the actions you want to see. I use the chat wheel all the time, because it saves time and has many useful messages to help coordinate individual players or the team.

                            3. Be smart about where you ward and how often you ward during the game. Dont ward in the usual spots if the enemy team dewards. Gauge where the action is going to take place in the next few minutes and ward/deward the area in advance. This calls for game sense which you probably need coaching and replay analysis to develop.
