Janna Support Runes
Ability Overview:
Passive (Tailwind): Janna and nearby allies gain movement speed when moving toward each other.
Q (Howling Storm): Creates a charging tornado that knocks up enemies. Longer charge time increases range, speed, damage and knock-up duration.
W (Zephyr): Passively grants movement speed. Active slows and damages a single target.
E (Eye of the Storm): Shields an ally and grants bonus AD. Shield/heal power increases after CC.
R (Monsoon): Knocks back nearby enemies and creates a healing field for allies.
Skill Order Priority: R > E > W > Q
Start with Q level 1, then max E first for stronger shields, followed by W for reliable damage/slow. Q is maxed last as its utility doesn't scale with ranks.
Core Items:
- Start: Spellthief's Edge + 2 Health Potions
- Core: Moonstone Renewer, Ardent Censer, Staff of Flowing Water
- Situational: Mikael's Blessing, Redemption, Chemtech Putrifier
Laning Phase Tips:
- Use Q to disengage and prevent all-ins
- Shield ADC before they trade/poke
- Conserve W to maintain movement speed
- Position behind ADC to maximize protective potential
- Save R for crucial peel moments or team-wide healing
Mid-Late Game:
- Focus on peeling for carries
- Use Q to initiate or disengage team fights
- Position carefully to maximize shield/heal value
- Coordinate R usage with team for maximum impact
- Maintain vision control around objectives
Janna thrives in defensive playstyles, excelling at counter-engage and sustained teamfight support. Her kit allows her to consistently enable carries while denying enemy engage attempts.
Your main goal is protecting valuable teammates while disrupting enemy advances. Master her Q timing and positioning to become a formidable support that can completely change the course of teamfights.
