Cytuj:
＊ Alistar: A good pick if your team has an AP with a good initiate / Can counter Fiddle and Kata’s ults
＊ Blitz: Suitable for the champions that can cut the battlefield (e.g. Anivia’s wall) / Can counter Kata or enemies with strong pokes
＊ Nunu: Suitable for the teams with strong pokes or pursuits / Can counter the champions that needs attack speed (e.g. Irelia, Tyrndamere)
＊ Taric: Good for a team with lots of tanky champions / Can counter enemies with strong attack damage
＊ Zyra: Suitable for AOE teams / Can counter almost all kinds of enemies, and I personally value Zyra very highly
＊ Janna: Good for a kiting and pursuing team / Counter AOE teams and can cut the battlefield
＊ Sona: Suitable for AOE teams and poking teams / Can counter all kinds of enemy teams
＊ Leona: Suitable for AOE teams and can either focus on one single enemy or a whole team / Counter the enemies that strongly rely on their ad/ap
＊ Soraka: Suitable for poking teams or teams with lots of tanky champions / Counter enemies with double APs
＊ Lulu: Good for kiting and poking teams and is great to pair with team fight initiators (e.g. Malphite, Alistar) / Can also counter the enemies with strong initiation (protect your AD)
Support Counters
Taric: Counters heavy AD carries, such as Graves, Sivir, Caitlyn, Ashe. Most of their skills do AD damage. However, as long as the Sivir isn’t stupid, you won’t get to stun her.
Blitz: Doesn’t do well against EZ, since it is nearly impossible to land a hook against good EZs. He also does poorly against heavy tank supports, like Taric, Leona, Nunu or Alistar. His strength is in getting in the first strike, making it hard for the Support to help, and killing you in a single trade.
Sona: Near invincible in this patch, by which I mean she has few counters, she is only really afraid of ganks. Koreans use Zyra against Sona, since she has very long poke, this is however a very skill oriented match-up. Zyra doesn’t have good base stats to go against Sona. Remember to use Q on the seeds, Q has ranged poke, which is much more annoying. You get 5g for killing a plant, but I get 300 for killing you, so don’t be shy on placing them. Oh, actually Blitz counters her, once Azubu picked Sona they banned Blitz, it seems we have a consensus on this.
Janna: counters Leona, when she Es you can just Q, and she will not be able to fly to you, try it. No godly reflexes required. Same thing for Alistar, however he is harder to catch since he doesn’t have a wind-up animation on W. Jana is afraid of continuous poke trades.
Nunu: (He goes into discussion of current support types)
As of now we have the trio of OP supports that counter each other, Sona > Nunu > Blitz > Sona...
Then we have the long range pokers Lulu, Zyra, Lux. Soraka is essentially a long range poker, but you need high lvls in e.
And then their are additional Tank Support options like Leona and Alistar.
On AD&SUP Combos
If you have an EZ, Graves, or Corki you should go with a tanky support. You have high CC good burst and a movement skill to deliver it. TPA rarely uses these three, because Bebe doesn’t like them, and we feel Kog and Vayne are underrated by the teams in the World Championships. M5 had the same idea, if you watch the reply they took Vayne as soon as we took Kog. We try to give them room to grow into hypercarries, by doing lane swaps, double mids etc.
Caitlyn, while not underrated, is definitely underrepresented. She was only shown iirc, in the Sk vs CLG game. Tristana has also been forgotten, she is a skill burst, Sivir is as well. Misfourtune and Varus are auto attack bursters. Ashe is in the past, doesn’t work very well now. If you have a poke AD you should use a poke support as well so you can synchronize your trades. I remember we had a game with EZ, Lulu and that combo works very well.
