Support Guide
The Lifeline Behind Every Victory
Supports are utility heroes who enhance their team through healing, shielding, crowd control, and vision. They pair with the marksman in the gold lane or roam the map to assist key fights. Supports may lack damage, but their ability to keep allies alive and set up plays makes them essential for coordinated team compositions.
