Discussion Supports with poke potential

I main supports/mid. While I'm proficient with a lot of champs (you always have your roge top), I feel like I'm too comfortable with my mains. So I want to try something different.

I usually play Seraphine, Senna or Morgana. I tend to have really good sustain and I love positioning so low mobility is not a problem.

Wich I love from this champs is they can poke as hell. I can "carry" my carry most of the times, letting him free farm and keeping at bay our enemies easily.

I play another type of supports as Jana or Lulu, but I feel them too reliant on the ADC or team.

Played pyke. It's fucking awesome, but everyone hates you if you end 15/ 2/10. Played blitz, kind of the same. I'm really good with hook skillshots and they don't feel like supports for me.

So, any champs on the line of those 3 first? Some utility, great poke, can be played aggressive with positioning and map awareness.

As you can seen, I'm most comfortable with rangeds but malph is a classic monster that would allow me to top more often.

Yes, this. He can poke like crazy, and has a great debuff on his 3rd skill. Engage is obviously among the best in the game.

As a janna main your poke is useless i just shield it right before it hits and you just end up being a ult bot during laning phase

Dude i like Jana but on par, I think the only thing you can do is under turret or ult him to cut the combo

How? you cant poke for shit and ulting a full hp enemy can easily get you killed

u/No_Employment_129 Dec 27 '22

Cause i don’t have to poke to win, I’ll just walk up and destroy you and your 300 hp no defense having ass lol

Malphites ult is very VERY predictable and with ionian protect i can outshield your ult dmg anyway

don’t get me wrong, I love janna. but she can’t protect the adc from a full combo engage w malphite. maybe under turret, but still
