User blog comment:Wario1226/Junglers as Supports/@comment-11588733-20130809074527

I've always run Maokai support during free weeks as an alternative to Leona, and he works just as well, if not better. Saplings are great for vision and harass, and will most likely push the lane, where the opponent must last hit under turret and get poked. Diving and setting up ganks with Maokai is ez-pz, and it snowballs the lane so hard I usually go straight into a RoA for the damage/beefiness.
