Hi. I agree with what the others are saying.

I still think your start could use some work - that's a lot of potions. I usually go:

tier 1 of (forgot the name)
x2 health potion
x2 multi potion
with either or for my first relic (depending which support I'm playing, and how aggressive I want to be).

is a good item, but not a good item for support. If you're looking for lifesteal on a support, go with .

(81) |

Thebes is built from and I think it's a fine start for support due to its HP5.

(143) |

Not really. Also if you start glowing emerald you can only get 2 health pots with HoG.

(105) |

you don't like T1 boots start (boots rush) boogie?

(46) |

I haven't tried it yet.
I was told T1 gauntlet is an acceptable start.
Is T1 boots better?

(105) |

it's indeed acceptable. Kriega pretty much gave you the reason in the answer of bran why it's the preferred stat for most people.

(143) |

Yes its much better.

Guardians, Tier 1 boots, 4 health pots, hog (preferred) OR, guardians, tier 1 boots 3 health and 3 multi pots.

(401) |

For Supports, T1 Boots/Shoes is pretty much always a good start, as it gets your MS online earlier for rotations and other utility.

For Solos, you sometimes can buy T1 boots/shoes, but often may look to get the T1 of the first protection item you plan to purchase against your lane enemy (when known, at least), or, more popularly, + extra potions for early sustain, since you don't really need much MS early.

For Mid / Jung / Carry, you are looking first and foremost for earlier damage, and will pretty much never start T1 boots/shoes.

(143) |

Its not just about getting your boots online sooner it's also for the ability to get extra pots / HoG for early laning phase.

(54) |

No mention of at all? I find it a pretty effective item and I've seen it mentioned in most guides. With 's CC it gets applied almost all the time on whoever you hit.

What do you think about that?

Yes u are rait for Stone of Binding is good iteam. But i dont use that on Cthulhu. I recomended Stone of Binding on Cabra, more CC :D..
Try my supp and solo build, and then let me now what do u think ty <3

(143) |

Did the warning signals not go off when you saw meditation relic mentioned and Bancrofts in the support build?

My support build work for me :D https://www.smitefire.com/images/item/meditation-cloak.png is good for my team.. And https://www.smitefire.com/images/item/bancrofts-talon.png is sustainability for me so is good :D ty <3

psst use

Code:

[[meditation]]

for the kewl coding

Thx for Coding <3

(143) |

Meditation isnt even that good for the team, its worse than (especially upgraded which gives Block stacks), plus gets countered hard by antiheal. And with how prominent AA Junglers are right now you definitely want upgraded shell.

As for Bancrofts, you know is a better support item, right?
