User blog comment:Pacpac1997/Unorthodox Supports/A Different Way to Play Support/@comment-3486816-20120624031955

If you like unorthodox aggressive supports, you might be interested in what happened to me recently. I'd finally gotten the chance to play Yorick top, and then Teemo stole it from me while I defended our fiddle at blue. I just said "f*** it" and went bot. I got like 3 kills on the enemy caitlyn in lane because I had my AD rune page (wasn't expecting to top lane that game), so Ghouls did hilarious damage. I was just able to sit in the bush and scare her away from any and all farm (and occasionally away from her own life) with ghouls. It was amusing, and I was able to turn around and pretty well carry the game with the kills I got early despite all the stupidity that took place.

As for farming, recognizing when your AD carry isn't going to get a creep and taking it is a valuable skill and no one should argue with you there, but it's less important than not taking it when they can -- they'll generally scale better than you will and should be more capable of getting it anyways. Of course, not having to worry about farming allows you to be more map aware and look for more opportunities to harass or set up a kill, so that's fine with me :P.
