You play him by being aggressive and forcing trades and then blocking all the damage while your AD autos for free.

loses straight up in poke lanes.
or something like that....

Braum's probably OP.

I've played against him once, and haven't played him yet. I think this because ~reasons~

Does BRO have the scoop on what's up with Team Builder and when it will stop being up with Team Builder?

Nope. I don't know anyone who works on that part of the game (I think). Mostly know the design guys and a few other people here and there.

I have a bit of a problem on supports like Zyra and Karma. I'll go oom within the first few minutes, after I net my adc a kill/zone extremely heavily. Anyone have any tips for mana management on them?

Unrelated EDIT: I've decided every fizz player is toxic. I haven't met a non-toxic fizz ever.

He is OP. He's the opposite of Leona. He sticks to his ADC and just doesn't die.

Get more autos in when you poke/harass so that you get them low on less mana (Zyra, Lulu, Annie, and Sona especially on this one)

Don't use your spells when you're going to miss the harass/don't need to shield.

Nothing is more disheartening than being Miss Fortune or Kat and trying to ult the ADC just to hear

Also, can some explain suppress to me? Only works as long as your animation is working? That's the difference between it and a stun?

I think suppression also isn't affected by tenacity, and you can't use Cleanse to get rid of it.

I think Riot went on record as being annoyed by it somewhere when talking about the Warwick rework.

Check out the wiki.

To add on the support / adc combo lanes:

Nami / cait is legendary, zyra / ashe is a pretty old synergy combo of similar levels of legend

Sona / MF and Sona / Ez are pretty old as well.
don't you feel silly now?

Leona+ everyone with Burst or a stun
Thresh + Most people.
Janna + lane bully like MF or Draven.
Taric + Cait
Soraka Jinx
Soraka Graves

You mention Taric and not pair him with Draven? Are you insane?

Also, Soraka/Sivir pushes everyone under the tower.

Zyra/Ashe isn't crazy? Like, that was played in professional games for awhile

Graves really isn't great in terms of power level right now but Graves/Taric is always so damn hard to kill that it's a good lane

My personal favorites right now are:

Leona/Tristana (dat burst)
Thresh/Caitlyn
Lulu/Caitlyn

Graves, Corki and Twitch are tier 1 right now.
Twitch and and Jax are actually like S tier must-bans right now tbh.

Tristana is awful
Vayne is awful

Lucian isn't as good as people think he is.
or something like that....

Except they're currently picked more often for doing what lucian does.
Graves is now often picked as a counter to lucian.

I can sit here and talk about why but history dictates that the only people who are smart enough to pay attention already know.
