    Why does the game doesn't count supp items like GG, mek, pipe etc as supp items? They are mostly bought by supp heroes

    Shou

      Underlord, aba, darkseer, timber, cent, and other tanky aura carriers buy these items, and they arent supports.

        Even razor, viper, sf used to get mek and shit.

          They all can buy wards and it does count as supp item

          trench

            Even the points you get in play style does count these items. Only the gold spent isnt

            trench

              talking about the gold spent on supp item only takes into consideration wards and dust etc

              Shou

                A support item is something like force, glimmer, ghost scepter, an early mek is something that supports cant farm, and pipe should go on someone tanky usually. Tho tbh i dont think any item shud be listed core or support, because its an item, and many heroes buy many items for many purposes.

                  Force is not a dedicated supp item only many carry like sniper etc make them. GSceptre is to save yourself unlike glimmer or force staff so it is bad to count it as supp.

                  Yes the farming is a problem for supp heroes.

                  But you are only talking about hard supp or solo supp heroes.
                  And time should be counted as supp depending on how much contribution they make to team.

                  Healing counts as supp as far as I know. In your play style post game you can see hero with lots of heal even with Vlad is given points in supporting.

                    If an ul makes a gg and use it in team fight it does and should count as supp but it doesnt count as gold spent on supp items.

                      Categorizing items as support/not is pointless anyway

                        ghost scepter is bad for a support

                        really makes u think

                        trench

                          Read properly what I wrote. I didn't say it's bad item for support.

                            @bws well that be true but the thing is the game already does for some items. Why not do it completely.
                            Plus as I said many of the items I listed affects your playstyle points post games.
                            So it's better to go full way rather than partial categorisation

                            Shou

                              Who cares those categories r bs anyway.

                                Because the support item section column is full and item has always been placed that way

                                Jordan

                                  Yea but with all logic spamming Sentires with a 6k in a carry does count as support. Sure better knockers.

                                    wards are the best support items

                                      how is ghost a support item? it only helps you.

                                      casual gamer

                                        heals != support

                                        glimmer and force are the most helpful to your team items, they cost much less than this other bs and are more useful to squishy slow low gold heros

                                        support tab measures CONSUMABLES, which provide a temporary benefit to your team and then the net worth of that item is gone. poof!

                                        greaves is an item that gives you and others a benefit, and stays in your inventory permanently. is assault cuirass a support item? no.
