User blog comment:Big Lupu/The Curse of the Supports/@comment-3970297-20130419093605

Support is a VERY subtle role. It's thankless, and overall you're everyone's bitch. If you play support champions, do NOT expect any sort of praise given to you. And if you do recieve them, consider them a pleasant surprise. It's a very pessismestic role in a sense to play support, since there is no winning formula that'll make you a big member of the team, because the fact is that support IS the team in many ways. Support characters make or break games more often than people figure because what Support characters do is what everyone else does NOT want to do. example, warding, building aura items, etc.

Obviously some support characters are more visually appealing than some supports. Such as Leona, Blitz, Lulu, and other more aggressive supports. People need to find more enjoyment within themselves to see what more passive champions like Sona, Soraka, or Janna do for the team.
