How it works

General

  1. You support your Team providing Healing, Shielding and various Buffs.
  2. You rush Moonstone Renewer.
  3. You can peel from your carries with Exhaust.

How to play

General

  1. You need to adapt in the game to your team and to the enemy team.
  2. You can get Mark (Snowball) summoner instead of Exhaust if you want to play more aggressive and to go in.
  3. You will be squishy early on, and if you don't go some tanky items later. Be careful!
  4. Your team needs to engage? Get items like Shurelya's Battlesong or Trailblazer.
  5. Your team getting poked to death? Consider getting Redemption AND/OR Locket of the Iron Solari
  6. If you are just getting poked and cannot manage to stay alive - get Kaenic Rookern or Warmog's Armor (caution: needs enough HP!)
  7. You have tanks, bruisers and your team lack damage? As a last resort, you can buy few items to even help with that!
  8. Remember to counter an enemy team. For example, if they have lots of healing, get Executioner's Calling early.

Champion

  1. For some reason, Riot disabled Summon Aery on K'Sante E (shielding component). Do not take it.
  2. K'Sante Support build plays around shields from E. It has low cooldown. You buy your items to boost it.
  3. You can be a really good peeler or you can even engage, depending on team's needs.
  4. More safe way of shielding your allies is by clicking their portraits, instead of trying to target them by clicking on them. This way you will always shield them.
  5. After your core items (Moonstone, Redemption, Locket), you can go more tanky - depending on what your team needs.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. Always keep stacking your Ntofo Strikes (Q).
  2. You can reset your auto attack timer with Footwork (E). It might be crucial in duels, or when pushing enemy turrets.
