An essential axis on the map is the bot lane, and although much attention is usually paid to the Attack Damage Carry, the support is the pivot of the duo lane. One of the determinants of success is a capable support, who sets the rhythm, who makes good trades, who, at the same time, makes small skirmishes become cataclysms on the side of the team.
In League of Legends, the ability to climb the ranked ladder with a specific champion depends on the awareness of the meta and the choice of the best champion. To access an updated support guide, click here: Patch Notes and meta.
Top-tier champs sit at the front of today's meta backers. They're the ones players actually trust. Data from countless Emerald+ matches shows clear stats forming in this LoL tier list.
Blitzcrank sits comfortably at the top with a strong win rate, and it’s no surprise. One good hook from him flips an entire lane. He shines in pick-heavy comps where a single catch snowballs the game. His oppressive early roaming and constant pick threat force enemies to play scared, letting his team take control fast.
Karma follows closely, offering both safety and pressure. Her early poke chunks health bars before fights even start, while her shields let allies push forward without fear. She thrives in skirmish-heavy games where nonstop trading is the norm.
Milio brings pure consistency to any marksman lane. His healing and buffs scale incredibly well, letting his ADC take over games once items roll in. His cleanse-style ultimate shuts down engage comps instantly, making him a reliable answer to heavy-CC teams.
Poppy shines in heavy-engage compositions. Though offbeat as a support, she earns her spot by completely deleting engage attempts. Her W alone can shut down divers and dash-reliant champs, while her knockback tools punish anyone who steps too close. In the right draft, she takes over fights by denying the enemy’s win conditions outright.

A solid pick here? Definitely one for folks who love starting clashes. Think troublemakers; eager types thriving when things explode into chaos.
Leona hits hard, no question. Her blade strikes fast while the flare blinds enemies. This duo shuts them down quickly. That’s why she rules the bottom side of the map. When team fights kick off, she’s usually the one lighting the fuse.
Thresh’s Death Sentence skill snags enemies from unexpected spots, while Nautilus shuts it down fast. Just aim his ult, fire off the hook, yanking foes right in. These two punished even the slightest positional mistake, turning what was a calm bottom lane into chaos real quick.

When champions spark chaos, enchanters keep it in check. These fighters boost teammates with powerful effects; some slow enemies, others mend wounds or block damage instead.
Lulu and Nami stand out as solid supporters during fights, not just Sona. Lulu’s Wild Growth lets her guard her main damage dealer, while Nami’s Big Wave can swing a fight on its own. Soraka keeps the squad healthy like no one else, so teams stay strong through long skirmishes. Pair them with enchanters; those allies who keep a scaling ADC safe when things heat up late in the match.
Other strong enchanter options include Janna for disengage, Yuumi for attached healing, Seraphine, who can flex from mid to support, Milio with his cleanse abilities, Renata Glasc for late-game insurance, and Zilean for his game-changing ultimate.

Actually,a tier list is not necessarily absolute; certain champions can be great when placed in the correct matchup.
This one’s clear with Taric. When enemies dive hard (like Leona or Zac), he shuts them down fast using his stun plus big ult. But if the other side keeps distance, poking from far (say Caitlyn or Karma), he can’t do much that matters.
Poppy’s another solid choice. Her Steadfast Presence shuts down fast champs like Rakan or Yasuo, making it one of the strongest dash counters around. While she struggles against long-range poke lineups, her power to block key enemy strategies keeps her locked into drafts, especially in top-tier play.

The path to victory changes based on where you stand in the rankings. A match that works well for Silver might flop when played by those sitting at Diamond tables.
The messier things get, the better off you are just smashing face. Champions like Amumu or Leona? Perfect. No fluff, all boom. These picks create openings outta nowhere while punishing sloppy positioning that most players here can’t avoid. Let your support handle setup; you bring the wreck.
It’s mostly about smart map decisions, seeing where enemies are, and roaming around the map fast. Bard gives help when moving across lanes, while Thresh brings strong tools. Though he loses his rescue item, it gives skilled users a real edge. Those who know how to use these champs can turn fights in their favor.
