Here is the list of the best supports attending Worlds 2023.

Right after the Mid-Seasonal Invitational tournament, we experience the biggest annual League of Legends event, Worlds. In this tournament, the best players from around the world compete against each other for the trophy.

As we can see what the highest level League of Legends looks like in Worlds, it is an exciting time for both casual fans and avid players.

They provide the highest utility in all stages of the game. Moreover, thanks to their support items, they can also fill the entire map with wards to help their team with vision control.
