How to play Janna
Janna is a enchanter Support Champion. She excels at shielding and healing your teammates to keep them alive. She has a pretty strong laning phase you just need to be careful and make sure the enemy bot lane does not engage onto you because you don't have a lot of health. The later the game goes the better Janna gets. Her shields and heals become even stronger and you can do a lot more to keep your team alive.
Janna Build Breakdown.
Janna does best with support items which give her shields and healing more power. With that in mind, Ardent Censer is the go-to and must-buy on Janna. Not only do you get health and ability power but the passive is the important part. When you shield or heal an ally they gain bonus attack speed and deal more damage. This is great as Janna's whole kit relies on shielding, healing, and buffing your team. Another core and must-buy item is Harmonic Echo. This gives you much-needed mana and a little bit of extra ability power. But again the main reason is for the passive. Moving and casting abilities build Harmony stacks. At max stacks, your next heal or shield on an ally will also heal them even more. So even more ways to keep your team alive.
With runes, we have the following:
This gives Janna more shield power and also allows you to deal that little bit extra damage which is nice in the laning phase.
Janna has plenty of abilities that immobilize the enemy so your team can follow up and deal 5% more damage to that enemy.
As a support champion your main job is to keep your team alive and loyalty is a great rune that can help!
With Zephyr (2nd ability) being an easy point and click spell it's really easy to get stacks on this rune to gain more mana which helps a lot as the game goes on.
For summoner spells, Flash is a must on most champions. It's a great spell to get you out of a bad situation or allows you to flash and save your ally or even maybe get a kill. Heal works really well as a 2nd summoner spell choice if your AD Carry takes barrier however if your bot lane duo (AD Carry) also takes heal it is really bad for you to also go Heal because you don't get the full effect. If this happens then change heal to Ignite to help kill the enemies.
Early Game
Janna does really well in the early game with poking from Zephyr (2nd Ability) and Howling Gale (1st Ability) and if you can time your Eye of the storm (3rd Ability) shield you can win trades vs the enemy bot lane every time. An important tip if you cast Howling Gale in a bush the enemy team can't see the ability until it goes out of the bush so it's a nice way to catch out your enemy.
Late Game
Janna does really well as you scale up to mid and late game because of her amazing abilities that can help keep your team alive. It is really important as a support that you stay with your team and help them during team fights. Prioritize keeping your carries alive and protecting them against the enemy team using everything possible to keep them alive. The AD Carry in your team is one of the main damage sources and keeping he/her alive is really important!
Conclusion
Janna is a very safe and beginner-friendly champion to play! She is great at keeping your team alive so can pressure a lot in the laning phase to give your Dragon Lane partner a lot of breathing space.
