Yeah, rotations are a bit tricky and hard to get hang of, but when you get familiar with them, i'm sure you will find them one of the most interesting thing of being a support.

I guess I've just always had more of an affinity for a support-type role. In other games with classes (way back in the day when I played EQ, WoW, Guild Wars 2, even TF2, etc.), I've always liked to play in a situation where I make others more effective.

Even when playing in Assault mode, I find that I'm most effective playing the tankier classes. I think I'm too stupid to play quick kill/quick death bursties correctly (at least on a consistent basis...I've wrecked as Freya and Bastet before).

still I would reccommend more roles (as that's just a lot of fun and sometimes someone else wants to be the support

Well, I've played solo before, and am sort of comfortable enough to play it when necessary. My choice there would probably be Chaac, though I'd also consider Chang'e...

Think I'd probably be somewhat okay mid as well (but being conscious of jungler ganks). I'm most comfortable with Ra, but wonder which other mids would be good choices there.

ADC is pretty straightforward, I guess. Would likely choose Rama or Cupid, though I'm comfortable with Neith and Artemis, for what it's worth. Don't like Apollo, and don't have AMC unlocked...just didn't like his kit, personally.

Just would NOT want to play Jungler. I'd have to be way more comfortable with the whole map and the rotations to do that.

But if I just sit back and don't call anything, 90% of the time, it seems like I'll end up as support in any case!

yeah support is something most people get forced to play. Also IMO jungle is easier then support as long as you get the hang of navigating through the jungle

Nah, I'd say jungling is the hardest role in the game. Then support, then mid, adc, solo.

But if you're bad at jungling, maybe you shouldn't be as keen to do much better as support. The roles are very similar.

The support meta right now heavily depends on your rotations. Idk what's in store for season 2 though.

I agree on this but I'm a terrible support (because I like more damaging squishier characters).

the jungler is mostly a support for solo as support won't rotate to solo normally

SmiteFire & Smite

Smite is an online battleground between mythical gods. Players choose from a selection of gods, join session-based arena combat and use custom powers and team tactics against other players and minions. Smite is inspired by Defense of the Ancients (DotA) but instead of being above the action, the third-person camera brings you right into the combat. And, instead of clicking a map, you use WASD to move, dodge, and fight your way through the detailed graphics of SMITE's battlegrounds.
