The problem with helping your adc push waves as a support in low elo is that your adc's ego won't allow him to not ping you and type "don't touch MY minions". So you either afk or roam while he is doing his thing or you can try to push causing him to rage, waste all his sums and abilities and leave you alone in lane for the rest of the game

As a support main, i can say that roaming has led to spam pings from my mid laner and my adc going 0/5

[PassivesAbseits]

The Nami is probably just traumatized by all the ADCs spam pinging questionmarks, if you attack their minions just once... Honestly, so many of my ADCs in Gold tilt, when I auto attack the minions to secure us the level 2 powerspike.
The other day, we clearly saw the enemy botlane recall and I for the love of God could not convince my Sivir to shove the lane and recall as well... she pinged me, why I dare to attack the wave. Serious: How am I supposed to manipulate my wave then?
My other favorite example: I actually learned how to pull the first wave to deny CSs... which doesn't help, if my ADC just kills their minions faster than they kill our minion.

Me, a support main that started as adc and learned wave management: 😎

My adc: perma shoves the moment they see the minions 🤯

[bendystrawz]

In our defense, when passing through lower elos, we get turbo flamed for even touching the wave by some low elo adc players that also don't know wave management. It's ptsd for us xD

This is quite possibly the best guide I've ever seen.

As a support main hovering in high plat/d4, I now realise I do some of this automatically, but am not consciously applying wave knowledge often enough. Hopefully it can help me improve.

[sokari]

This is a nice guide, its not another wave control guide, it just showcase what you can do as a support. Love it more than another wave control guide for support. Thanks guys.

[pavener]

when i actually understood that the goal of the game is to push our minions into their base is what wins us the game it changed everything...baus made me understand that if your whole team dies, but you are able to deny them wave, they cant end

[veraciousviolet]

Plat support here. I actually understand wave management as adc is my secondary role. The adcs I have don’t understand what it means. You leave a wave in a good spot to go roam and then they shove it. Leaving themselves too far pushed up and die for it. Only thing plat adcs understand is to shove the wave when needed. Same goes for my supports though. The amount of times a support ruins a freeze I have. Or I back with it slow pushing into me and my brand just can’t help himself but to use abilities on the wave.

[ignaciodiaz]

My playstyle is always oriented towards wave control and positioning into objectives. While we can take into account what is said in the video it is not always an option, i'm gold at the moment so by no means i'm pro but most of the essentials of supports is macro tracking, wave management and vision control. Not always do we get a nice ADC that's worth giving more attention and care than the team and we don't always have good games so don't take it against each other lol. I was hoping to see more vision tips.

When you press tab as support and you see your hole team with negative kda and you know you can t do anything about it

[rebelle]

ok let's talk about min 3:13 when u go roam and leave your adc alone, if I do that not only they die 1v2 but they will int or go afk and flame me all the game and call me troll ofc even by my mid (worst scenario) 😂 I wish it was so easy but yes this video showed me I need to learn MORE

[mangobeepoppin]

Ok so I meant to play support this morning because of this video. But I got adc and felt comfortable about the match heading in. I already also followed your previous Sivir guide and cheater recall tips on cannon wave.

after I say about a week or two of practicing I finally lane dominated my opponent in extreme fashion! 17 KDA and 505 gold a minute. So I appreciate these guides because I really don’t want to be Bronze. I’d like to be at Gold this year because that seems like a reasonable goal based off my current rank of Bronze 4. Also big thanks to my Swain support. He definitely sacrificed himself to save me a few times.

How to Win with Support:
Support the One Punch Man Strongest Ninja Warrior!
Stop supporting only the ADC and press TAB to see who is your Big Daddy!

[dillanpickett]

Ok here is the issue with roaming as a support even when the wave is going to bounce back your dumb adc will always try to get that one melee creep that is going to die by walking up and inting.This happens multiples times a game and in every single game. In this video you should throw in a side remark telling adcs not to go for the one creep and just wait its going to come back to you. The 90g you get for a caddy is not wort the 300g, the exp the enemy gets, and all the exp you lose when they hard push and lose the whole wave with a gray screen.

[cyrene]

ok that leona and braum moment had me in awe

[myron_jd]

I sometimes do the draging thing so that the wave doesnt go under tower. But after a fight I don’t know if its better to freeze or push to enemy tower. Also on top lane idk what is better. I’d think freezing is better if you can’t poke them under the tower like leona

[natelarson]

as someone that jungles, what always gets me is when people flame you for ganks, but dont set up the wave. Then act as if they can do anything as an 0/3 vlad with no items

[wiggys]

I litteraly did this in a tournament game today where we faut level one and both adcs died and I baited the enemy support to auto me so the wave started to push into us. Basicly won us the lane!! Thank you!!

[TruBluLew]

This is actually a really good video on this and now that I think back on it, when my wave control got better a few years ago, it's when I broke into Masters. Thanks Skill Capped fam!
