The long list of changes introduced to Milio in patch 14.14 are still working in his favor and he's an amazing champion to pick up.

CONS:
- Low CC
- Reliant on ADC
Lux
Lux, the queen of mid and support, is in an absolutely OP state in Patch 14.15. Honestly, when hasn't see been an amazing champ? She has everything you need: high damage, a shield, short cooldowns, and lots of utility. Lux's versatile kit makes her a dominant force in the current meta.

- Easy to play
- Short cooldowns late and mid-game

- Heal and shield
- Low pick and ban rate

Thresh
Thresh is an amazing choice in the current support meta, offering crowd control, mobility, and utility while being great in both engaging and peeling for his teammates.
PROS:
- Good engage
- Tanky
CONS:
- Long cooldowns
Nami
Nami is a classic League of Legends support who can deliver both damage and healing, making the ADC much more sustainable. Her crowd control abilities, combined with her healing and buffing skills, provide excellent utility in lane and team fights.
PROS:
- Fun to play
- Helps with sustain
CONS:

Lulu can fit well into almost any team composition thanks to her abilities, which protect and enhance her teammates with shields, polymorph enemies, and provide movement speed buffs.

- Strong early game
CONS:
- Squishy
- Relies on the team, useless 1v1

Braum
Braum delivers slows and stuns like no other, helping you peel your team easily.
PROS:
- Roaming
- Great peel
CONS:
- No sustain
- No poke
Pyke
Thanks to his engagement, disengagement, healing, and damage, Pyke is reclaiming the S-tier. He's a menace and a hyper-carry!
PROS:
- Insane damage
- Stealth
CONS:
- Useless when behind
- Bad at pushing
Janna
Janna is underrated because she's squishy but she can be extremely powerful if used right.

League of Legends 14.15: A-Tier Support Champions
Sona
Sona has everything you could want in a support champion: a damage boost, movement speed, healing, and a stun. Her versatile kit makes her a valuable champ fir for any team composition.
PROS:
- Healing
- Stun
- Great in most team comps
CONS:
- Squishy
- Mana-dependant
Zyra
Zyra and her plants are very reliable, thanks to her high poke damage and crowd control.
PROS:
- Versatile
- Easy to pick up
CONS:
- Lots of kills and farm stealing
- No mobility
Nautilus
Naut is a great champion but his high pick and ban rate make it difficult to pick him in Ranked.
Soraka
Soraka remains a highly effective support champion thanks to her healing. She's versatile and very underrated.
PROS:
- Global ult
- One of the best healers
CONS:
- Squishy
Taric
Taric is still serving damage and tankiness, but he isn't as OP as he used to be in LoL patch 14.14.
Xerath
Xerath is not only one of the most annoying supports you can play against but also an insane midlaner. It seems like his abilities never stop coming your way! However, in the current meta he's losing his S-Tier status.
Morgana
Morgana is another LoL champion who is always good. While she’s not S-tier strong currently, her Black Shield can nullify crowd control, and her Dark Binding can catch enemies off guard, making her amazing both in lane and in team fights.
PROS:
- One of the best shields in the game
- Stun and AoE
CONS:
- Squishy

Blitzcrank
Despite the challenges of securing him in your games due to his ban rate, Blitzcrank can turn the tide of fights and create opportunities for his team like no other, thanks to his feared hook.
Alistar
Alistar is a straightforward tank who can effectively carry a struggling ADC. He’s an ideal choice in low Elo, where peeling for a less skilled lane partner is often necessary.
Zilean
Zilean has been doing surprisingly well for a few patches now and we love seeing more unpopular champions shining through.
PROS:
- Good mobility
- Great slow
CONS:
- Squishy

League of Legends 14.15: B-Tier Support Champions
Brand
Brand used to be an OP support pick but damage isn't enough to carry a game in the current LoL meta.
PROS:
- Amazing AoE damage
- Easy to pick up and master
CONS:
- Bad utility
- Easily out-sustained
Swain
Swain is going a tier down but he's still very decent as both support and ADC.
PROS:
- Versatile
- Lots of AoE damage
- Great in team fights
CONS:
- Mana-dependent and mana-hungry
- Immobile
Senna
Senna currently sits in the B-tier. She's decent but she struggles against certain matchups and can be less effective when not paired with the right ADC.
Renata Glask
As always, Renata is in a weird state - not being strong or weak. We can't help to wonder if Riot will ever do something to bring some more attention to her (aside from the cool skins).
PROS:
- Great in team fights
- Good poke
CONS:
- Short range
- Squishy
- Slow

Rakan
With high mobility and an engaging playstyle, Rakan is great at initiating fights and providing utility. However, he is lacking, compared to some supports.
PROS:
- Mobility
- Amazing engage and disengage
- Roaming
CONS:
- No damage
Bard
Bard is currently performing 'okay' in the meta. One of his standout features is his utility and mixed damage, which can provide significant support to his team. However, he struggles with his large hitbox, making him an easier target for enemy skill shots.
League of Legends 14.15: C-Tier Support Champions
Neeko
In the last few Support tier lists, we placed Neeko high, but the recent changes have made her a less-favorable support.
PROS:
- Great roaming and CC
- Amazing wave clear
- Easy to play
CONS:
- Falls behind easily and can't get good again
Camille
Camille Support is losing relevancy with each League of Legends update. We won't be surprised if she stops being used as support in a few patches.
Teemo
Teemo is moving into the C tier in LoL patch 14.15. It's best if you keep him in the top lane.
PROS:
- Easy to pick up and master
- Lots of damage
CONS:
- Squishy
- Bad in team fights
Malphite
Although Malphite is great in theory, he’s currently lacking in the meta compared to other support champions. While his ability to initiate fights and provide crowd control can be effective, he struggles to offer the same level of utility and versatility that many other supports offer in LoL.
Annie
Yeah, Annie can deliver some serious damage but this isn't enough in the current support meta.
Hwei
Hewie has been in a strange state for a while, with Riot keeping him relatively weak. While he remains a versatile champion, he requires a deep understanding of his mechanics to be effective. Because of this, it's best not to pick him up unless you’re planning to main him.
PROS:
- Versatile
- Good wave clear
CONS:
- Squishy
- Hard to master

League of Legends 14.15: D-Tier Support Champions
Miss Fortune
While she excels as an ADC, Miss Fortune lacks the utility and crowd control that are essential for a strong support role. She won't be added in the upcoming Support Tierlists.
Ashe
The 'Support ADC' meta is out, as we already established with MF. Ashe can't offer much supporting, aside from her E and R. Focus on her as an ADC instead.
