When is the last day for this season? I wish I could play more League. Nothing like being almost ready for dinner then getting called to work until midnight!
I'd love to know myself. I don't think they've announced it yet? Personally I want it to end so I can play ranked without worrying about dropping to silver. I want my gold rewards before I plummet like a rock. I've been in promos for gold iv for about a month now lol
no clue on exact last day but it's gonna be on november, probably mid to late?

Yeah I want to know so that I know how long I have to get out of silver. I didn't play ranked because they disabled devourer and I was scared that some one on my team was going to be a devourer jungler like ww. Also I end up playing devourer jgers because I think that my lee sin and rengar isn't that great yet.

To me it always seems that no one wants jg. I usually end up playing jg if I'm not duoing, even though I usually play mid or top when I'm playing normals.
the number of times where newt and i have been last picks but still gotten our roles is surprisingly high
i think ive hit the elo where when you say a role pref, people look you up before saying "lol no thats my main role" and see that you're better than them and give it to you.

Same here. I always fill and about 80% of the time that leaves me with jungle.

I mean, anyone can be a support main since support has just turned into build sightstone into whatever the fuck you want. If a solo laner or jungler gets stuck with support they just end up playing a weaker version of their lane.
Most people tend to avoid supp in normal 5v5 games, which makes picking that role with Nami a lot easier. I guess I'll try Azir out in mid this week just for the sake of shaking things up and not being a one-trick pony, though.
Still saving IP up for Kog in case they announce its Monarch skin, since I'd hate to miss out on it due to buying some other champion.

i disagree with that statement on a fundamental level
yes, supports were visionbots at one time in the game, but that was a long time ago. support champions can make so many plays right now it's insane.
I just never understood the 'lane or feed' mentality. Like just play something else this isn't the last game of league ever.
Teams in-fighting before the game even starts makes no sense to me. Or talking shit on each other, it should be the opposite. Building each other up, wishing the team luck and hoping you guys body the other team so bad they want to uninstall.
Like just play and win the damn game. Then if you dislike a player who cares, you may never encounter them again.

Supports were always the playmakers even when they were "ward bots." The influx of gold into the role has made AP heavy supports viable and overall more fun to play of course. Now instead of winning through wards you can actually win through items which many more people prefer hence why you don't see too many "ANYTHING BUT SUPPORT" spammers.

ADCs ditching the role gotta go somewhere
yeah, specially since over time riot has been giving supports lots of fun to build items to use that gold on
This is a large part of it I think. More gold and being able to buy items is more fun for people.

That link for the Pick'em group lets me look at it, but I can't join it. Can someone provide the invite link?
http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/player-behavior/positive-play-icon-unlocked
Positive Play icon!
I just got one in my list too.
The requirements are lax so even Newt should get one.
Oh, I did not have access to the invite link. zkylon can probably provide it.

thanks for the games GAF!
We even got Xelnath to play with us!

OMG, it really works as advertised! I managed to get two pretty good ults in the last match I played, doing quite well while supporting Quinn adc against Ashe and Morgana in bot (hated to be on the receiving end of her Q and E, though). Then we had a Veigar who was AFK the whole match and a jungle Shyvana who had to go mid to make up for that, all while Jax got overpowered at top and we were quickly facing the constant threat of roaming Yi and Sejuani screwing us up. And to think that we were at least doing decently at the bottom lane...
I'm getting more used to bubbling defensively in order to stave off approaching enemies, and am no longer spamming W recklessly and running out of mana too quickly. Still got to work on actually using signs to communicate, but I think I'm slowly getting better at filling my role in general and not dragging my team down too much.
poor costy, spending half of his every day shredding noot's report files and burning all the evidence so lyte doesn't find out about the one hole in the system

but with time they improved itemization a lot with things like making the locket vs banner choice more interesting, adding righteous glory and new zekes (zekes isn't the most fun item ever but it's got a cool buildpath at least) and just general balance on support items. there's still stuff that didn't work out, like ardent censer and how dumb it was to randomly buff coin line (i think coin line overall should probably not exist or at least be WAY less rewarding than the other ones), but iirc support itemization has been in a pretty decent spot for the whole season so that's pretty nice
get me xypherous

lack of cool new items was one of the reasons i wasn't a big fan of the support changes back on release, they were making supports less unique by taking away the whole vision wars thing and were just giving u more gold to spend on tank items. that wasn't much fun or interesting, it was replacing something boring with something that's also boring, but it's not even uniquely boring lol.
