This is one thing I like about silver. I feel like pretty much ANY champion can be used down here, if you're somewhat competent.
whats your runes and masteries setup pankaks?

REALLY RITO?
This is really only a low elo set up I'm running because I know my lane opponents aren't smart enough to punish me. I've gotten a lot of flash q-powerchord FBs running this in low elo. Obviously I wouldn't recommend this above gold as you will probably get rekt.

should have told them to go fuck themselves for being dicks.
I got an Ezreal on my team. I was like, everyone let's watch Ezreal and if he builds tear first let's yell at him. And he was all, "so tear first right? XD" and we were all hahaha, the jokes. And our support was hoping he wouldn't go blue build.
...he went tear, blue build, AND AFK for 5+ minutes in the middle of the game. Then AFK again later adjusting settings. ;_____;

oh yea i can't imagine that ending well in my games lol, at least not with me being this bad
the runes/masteries combo i'm running on nami/sona:
2 armor quints, 1 ap quint
mpen reds
hp yellows
4 flat ap blues
5 flat mr blues
and then 0/15/15
so not as risky as yours, but still pretty dumb heh
i'm not sure if they're "the best", but my 0/15/15 that i run on basically everyone feel pretty good on braum/leona/thresh. i mean they feel pretty good on everyone, that's why i just run that all the time
http://www.lolking.net/summoner/las/237189#masteries (page 6, often i switch that one point in perseverance with swiftness)
i don't like 0/21/9 too much cos i feel like the later points of defense aren't as great on support since you're not really gonna be seriously tanking all that much
how long is your average game lol

0/9/21 just like every other support.

The usual 30-40 Min. range I'm rather aggro with Sona, and would sometimes just bait enemies to chase me and my team wrecks them :V

theres no way you can build that many expensive items on sona in 40 minutes.
The AFK blue Ezreal throw game was a promotion game. Good thing I didn't realize it at the time or it would have been even more frustrating. ;( I got an awesome team and got carried the game afterwards at least. Amusingly enough another Ezreal, but that one built trinity first. Third game now!

Ezreals are wack.

Oh mind you I don't actually manage to build all that; at best I'd finish Mikael or Unholy Grail and by then we won =3
BTW what's the best/cheapest Mana Regen item?
faerie charm?
if you need a mana solution cheapest for mid you can get tear if you don't need the mr from chalice but generally you'll want to do fiendish codex or that thing you make with two faerie charms for morellos. double dorans + fiendish codex is pretty nice with ahri

the best mana regen item on sona is mikaels.
but usually you build shittons of ap on her so u get lich bane with your frost queen tier 3.

Mikaels is core on Sona. I started doing what Euler does and just sell the T2 frostfang to get an earlier aegis or FH depending on enemy team comp.
One of my best friends basically only plays Sona and he gets so much heat for that... lol.
Like we just aced them, and we have someone slowed, with no flash and you see the GOD DAMN BLUE THING swivel all the way to just last hit lol.
Aaah! It's fine though, because he has to deal with me as an ADC, and god knows I would not dare to support myself lol.

Once you get past a certain point in the mid game you don't get an immense amount of gold from it anyway. Better to rush an item that helps your team overall.
spending 500g on the t2 sounds bad to me tho, wouldn't it be better to never upgrade it at all?
Isn't YLA Rex in diamond? You two could duo to get both of yourselves to D4.
I think Nev is diamond as well, but EUW if I recall so it wouldn't work.

You need the extra AP and sustain in lane.

Here's the thing, depending on enemy comp I gotta choose between Mikael or Locket. Like if enemy team has champs with AoE abilities, I'd like to get Locket to help out my team.
Would it still be worth it to get Locket+Mikael though?
how about buying a doran's ring?
you lose 5 damage on hit, but you get 10 more ap which benefits your spells, passive and heals.
you lose 5g on hit but dorans costs 100g less. that's 20 hits to make those 100g. 20 hits is not a lot but with dorans you get the extra 100g right away with which you can buy a pink ward or a couple potions or whatever. i don't know how much money you usually make with t2 spellthief, but you keep t1, so you still have the gp10 and the basic on hit moneys
and 25% mana regen is roughly less or equal to 3 mp5 for most of the early game. a few minions secured with sona gives you a bit more sustain
worst part i think is wasting an item slot
what do you think?
...
also i just realized doran's rings are still using flat mp5. rito was pretty inconsistent with that shit, doran's, blue elixir and blue buff still give flat amounts. i'm guessing they don't want these items to scale? it's weird...
I think item slots are really precious as a support. You'd be forced to sell the Doran's Ring earlier than the Frostfang (or sell spellthief earlier, I guess). Frostfang does contribute quite some gold as well.
Personally I don't buy Frostfang (on some champs) if the laning phase is already over or if the enemy bot lane have a tough hard engage lane.

Frostfang is no good if you're getting forced into team fights frequently.
I love FQC on Morgana when there aren't full team fights going on though. Mobility + FQC makes her a very good roaming support. The active makes it very easy to land Q. There were times I forced Flashes just because I landed FQC.

It's probably a way of controlling these items. Like, imagine if Doran gave % base, say 25%. Now the item is weaker than live early, but then you stack them and now you have huge, cheap mana sustain that scales hard. Solution would be making it an unique passive, but now you can't stack Dorans.
It's just too much trouble. Same goes for blue and elixir, you stack them with something like Morello's and now you might as well be an energy champion.

Didn't stop Rito from flipflopping with Doran's Blade though.
I think it might have more to do with the weakness of mana regen % early on. Lifesteal is probably passable since you auto so often anyway.

I should have stopped playing.
Lost all my games today, 4 rankeds and 5 normals.
I do get a warning when I'm in danger of being demoted, right?

I don't think so. It just happens instantly after a loss.

I think you only get a warning for demotion due to inactivity.

I'm talking about tier demotion. I know that Riot implemented this in S4, but I think they said something about getting a warning, but I'm not sure.
I don't know anyone who got demoted from gold to silver, for example.
