#Advice for a support main to climb ranked?

Study high elo support vods or ones for your champion pool
apply learnings to your games
have a small champion pool, be comfortable on those
know all the matchups and how it should go
keep up vision and sweep on cooldown
and if you are struggling get a coach and let them explain it to you based on your context
Hey! I’d highly recommend watching coaching content from your own rank and elo, which you can find a bunch of online. Also, something I used to do when I was a low rank was to watch supports Smurf in my own elo, and see how I can reproduce that. Recently, I wanted to help out again, and I have a couple games I played in lower ranks, with whatever champion my chat requested. My goal was to talk about everything going on in my head, and explain how I Smurf in your ranks. I played: Alistar in Diamond, Nami in Gold, Lulu and Karma in Silver, and Thresh in bronze. I plan on playing more soon, but let me know if any of those vods would be useful. I also recently coached a silver pyke support, who is now gold 3, and a plat senna support, who is now diamond 3. Both vods are still available to watch for free
@shut blade @jade raven Hii! Sorry for the ping! Thank you so much! This is really really helpful. I’ll go ahead and start looking into these as soon as I’m off work. I play Morg, Nami, and Lulu. I’m trying so hard to get back to where I was in preseason! I was in promos for Gold and I’ve been dying to climb higher to learn how to get better at the game. 😭
No problem 🙂 never be afraid to dm or ping me. If u don’t I won’t see it lol. Lmk if u have any questions on matchups, or anything. I play morg Nami and lulu on my main from time to time, along with a BUNCH of other champions, so you also if u wanted to see how it’s played in grandmaster/challenger games, feel free to tune into my twitch. (Linked to my discord). Good luck!
As a low GM supp main. Stay away from enchanters if you're below diamond and wanting to actually climb. Enchanters are a low elo bait for the most part. Enchanters do not have any near the play making capability to win a game as xerath lux or blitz ect... TLDR if u want 2 climb quickly as support don't play an enchanter.
But it’s still very possible to climb either enchanters, and not crazy difficult either if you play properly too
def play what you enjoy
