S-Tier Support Champions

Despite the constant barrage of nerfs, Lulu is still dominating solo queue. The devs are struggling to balance her kit, and it might be some time before she steps down from the top of the list.

Braum is excellent for peeling and defending your carries, and has decent CC which make him a great pick.

Nami is rising due to Lucian, and Lucian due to Nami so it's a bit of symbiotic relationship but even if you're paired with a different carry, you wil find a lot of success.

Thresh is once again at the top of the list due to his great utility and overall well-rounded kit giving him just enough CC and tankiness.

Milio is another excellent pairing for Lucian, and the healing coupled with CC cleanse is great in team fights.

Rakan is a great partner to Xayah and you can get a lot of mileage due to his snappy movements giving your team the much-needed CC and engage.

Rell is a great engage tool that can swiftly swing things, especially if you manage to get on top of the enemy backline.

Nautilus is your go-to CC machine that can effectively shut down enemy carries.

A-Tier Support Champions

Leona is a classic engage champion that can kick off a fight with only a single ult.

Sona has seen a lot of play recently and her rather easy playstyle makes it even more tempting to try her out.

Poppy is a reliable flex pick that provide your team with great anti-engage tools as well as a great zoning ultimate that can allow you to contest objectives if used propery.

Morgana is seeing more play this time around as her kit offers a good mixture of offensive and defensive options.

Bard is difficult to master but offers a ton of utility to your team either through roaming or effectively utilizing his ult.

Janna is a standard enchanter that offers tons of tools to stop enemy dives and engages.

Blitzcrank is just a fun support to play that requires you to effectively use his hook to catch enemies and secure easy picks onto squishies.

Although ZIlean is rather boring in terms of gameplay, the value you provide to your team cannot be underestimated.

B-Tier Support Champions

Taric is rather tricky to play due to his ult but the overall value the champion provides is not to be slept on.

Xerath is great addition to a poke-heavy comp, allowing you to take priority eary into the laning phase and push the enemy bot lane under tower.

Neeko has incredible play-making capabilities, and although her damage was slightly nerfed for her laning phase, her ult remains as one of the most impactful in the game.

Senna ADC has been nerfed so it seems players are naturally gravitating toward her support role causing a slight increase in her play rate.
