Expensive to Kill

The ideal for a support isn't hiding so you don't die — it's staying alive to keep putting out utility while charging a steep price for the kill. Stand where cover, angle, escape route, and peel distance all check out, and the enemy has to spend an ult or the dive's whole resource pool to take one player down, which is a win on the resource trade by itself. "Expensive" isn't only positioning that's physically hard to kill into; it also covers a setup where the cost on the other side of the kill — the resources spent — doesn't pay for itself. If Solo Stall is "one player buying time," this is the permanent positioning that keeps the enemy's cost of attacking raised for as long as you're alive.

When a support has to stand somewhere dive-exposed, check peel distance and escape route before setting position. The more the enemy has high-damage DPS or dive heroes that isolate, the more it matters.
