1st try - Why not cv?

So it has come to this.
With a little anxiety I press the "play" button. Solo queue, here I come!


I'm second in my team. I decided I want to support, 'cause this is what I'm best at. (Or at least, supporting makes me feel confident.)


So I pick support Lulu. My team has Veigar mid, Trynd jungle, Caitlyn AD and Wukong top. Not bad.
We're versus Swain, GP, Tristana, Kennen, Amumu.
They got no standard support, but I got raped so many times by no-support lanes that I take this as a bad sign.
They got tons of aoe, I imagine my entire team bound by 3-4 aoe ultis, while Swain is crow-dancing on our corpses. Beautiful perspective.


I take a look at the chat. Champion pick time. Cait starts complaining 'cause I took flash + exhaust (she obviously had flash + heal). She wants me to take cv and heal. I refuse (I really don't feel confident supporting with those summoners) and ask her to trust me. Game starts before we have time to argue further.
*Sigh - I think - good start, complaining even before game launch.*


But the game starts, and after Veig asks me to pull out a cv (...errr...) everything goes just fine.
Me and Cait are facing a fearsome Kennen-Tristana bot lane. I say fearsome, cause they really were terrifying. Luckily for us, they were so bad that we got FB in the first 5 mins, and won easily our lane.


The game goes on, and we face the team fight phase without much problems. Honestly I have to confess that though bot lane was terribad, the rest of enemy team was pretty good, and we had hard times and nice team fights.


Eventually we made our way up to their nexus, and it was a GG.
No QQ at the end, no post-game chat insults... too good to be true!


+18 rating, 948 ELO, Suppordle wins!
