Whats a support that can push lanes good and has a escape tool

[HollowKing]

I like Jakiro support because he really good at pushing lanes but he has no escape tool and is pretty slow so its very easy to die if I am not watching map when pushing lanes, I can't think of any support with good pushing and escape any ideas? I was thinking maybe kotl because he is so fast and good at pushing waves but having high ms is not really an escape mechanism on its own

dk isn't a great lane support and even though hes tanky he can still very easily get caught out and killed since he has no escape mechanism

Nature Prophet is all what you need..

Supports shouldn't be pushing lanes or splitpushing, because they typically have the best disables on a team and therefore are essential for teamfights... Supports should be babysitting the carries.

Jakiro is a good support who can splitpush if need be, but if you don't like him, then you won't like other options since at least Jakiro has enough damage and cc to deter an enemy from pursing, whereas other supports typically only have cc to slow down advances.

oh i didn't think of np or wr, I really like those ideas especially np

np is very hard, wr is kinda braindead but take your picks. hoodwink is another good option.

Hoodwink, she's very versatile. She can clear creep waves if you give her Mjollnir or Gleipnir, and she also has great escape abilities. I had an enemy like this, which stomped the game. Get Arcane Blink, Wind Waker, Linken's Sphere, maybe Black King Bar and/or Hurricane Pike.

Yeah you are probably right about that but I play in low unranked bracket and the carries don't push out the lanes lots of times so I am just going to do it whenever I play 5

supports having a good lane push is never a bad thing. theres usualy at least one deadlane that the support has to take to soak exp and try to protect the tower. so wr and hoodwink are perfect for that as they create space doing that.

Debatably: Io (w/ friend or someone who listens)
Primarily the carry Io takes along will kill the creeps and get safe gold due to the 10 second Relocate timer. If Io is Lv 25 with a Desolator and fast attacker (i.e. Windranger), they can even backdoor the towers.

A good measure of a Support doing their role properly is if they end the match only with Arcane Boots and nothing else. Maybe a Glimmer Cape/Force Staff too if the team is doing very well.

Force staff.
Jakiro should have high dmg, but for this u need to not die.

When I need to sap the wave as a support, I really like Ogre Magi (extremely durable, has a movespeed buff), Grimstroke (long-ranged waveclear), Dark Willow (I-frames with Shadowrealm), and Venomancer (spammable wards, can do heavy damage to anyone who ganks him).

This is a common misconception among non-support pub players. Keep in mind that pubs are not pros. There's always unclaimed farm in sub-4k MMR, and farm on a support is better than losing a tower. Ask any pubstar like Speeed or Jenkins, and they will tell you that the key to climbing MMR as a support is to farm deadlanes (without stealing from your carry, obviously).
