Please, as a support don't do this. It is true that others should be buying wards but majority of times they don't and if you are willing to first pick support then you should keep 1 slot for 5 wards always. Having 6 items filled up to finish off an item with 0 cs income really, really hurts your team for a good 5-10minutes during laning phase. This is of course assuming you went bot support (which wasn't really clear)
My apologies, I was not bot. When I play support, I always have a slot open for wards, usually filled with them. However, I was mid. I, of course, buy wards for the area around me, and I am not opposed to buying more wards as the game progresses, but my slots were filled. Also, Reno, look at the picture dude, lol. I was faaar from 0 CS.
Karma is alright on bot, but is much, much better in mid. She's very mana intensive, but the tradeoff for this is decent poke and high health laning. The fact that she can negate most damage through E and Mantra'd Q is amazing. Her damage can seem lackluster if you can't "land" a Spirit Bond, but she still pushes well, farms well, and trades well. Her issues have always been with Mantra; it has such a long CD and has only 2 stacks, so she feels like half of a champ while waiting for a charge. And of course, her highest damage requires an ally to be close, so that can be annoying at times. But difficult kit != troll pick, as some players seemed to believe.
Kog'Maw makes a good AD carry because he can obtain the 2nd(?) highest attack range in the game, he gets a passive attack speed bonus, can shred armor+mres from 1 target skill(which resets his attack timer btw) and has a % of health shred on hit. Sure, all of his skills do magic damage but that's what makes him annoying to deal with (kinda like Trist) as naturally armor doesn't completely negate his damage output.
None of that sunk into their heads. The enemy Tristana, at the end-game chat, even tried to help me explain this to them, but they not only wouldn't listen, but left mid-explanation. It boggles me how some people can just shut off their brain and not listen to what others have to say. You have described Kog'Maw perfectly, as I tried to do, but apparently I didn't know what I was talking about.
Chat's comic said:
Lol I guess. I mean, all of the people I love to play with now, I met through solo queue, so it's not so bad. It just gets really annoying when you get paired up with the bottom of the barrel.
And on that note, I think I'm going to go into LoL-overdrive mode: I have got to raise my ranked elo. Every time I get past the 1ks, I get thrown into absolutely idiotic 1.1k matches, sending me right back down. It's amazing; people at, like 1050, can be good players who fell down hard. 1100 players just seem reaaaaaally stupid. But yeah, I figure if I can just get past this elo, I can move on to better matches. Like, a place where people have basic knowledge of this damn game. Let's call it elo heaven, if you will, lol.
