If you have to choose between playing risky and playing safe, play safe

I would much rather have a player who plays safe on my team than someone who risks everything to get every single kill. Why? Because even if you go even (which you probably won't by defintion especially if you're lowly silver like me) , or a kill per death, that makes it that much harder for the rest of your team. I can't peel a Yasuo who is 7 kills above me off my team mates and live, he will obliterate me. Yeah you're fed now but so is the enemy laner and it makes it that much harder to play the game.

So play safe guys :)

not posible sometimes, playing safe have effect provoking enemy go aggro, huging tower doesnt save you and frontloaded dmg and milion dashes jumps and flashes make diving almost without any danger

So, if you are behind as a team, you actually have to take risks(in a coordinated fashion, not by yourself) in order to extend your ward coverage and get smaller advantages that can add up or turn into a larger objective advantage. If you stay safe and passive, the enemy will use their lead and press you constantly until you eventually lose. However, that being said, certain champions 'turn on' with certain item power spikes or level power spikes, so in some cases staying safe and farming rather than overextending can be a good strategy, such as kogmaw or master yi when he gets a guinsoos. For the most part though, so long as your team is working together and coordinating and grouping up rather than going on solo missions, you should be able to catch the enemy off guard in a lot of situations where they dont expect you to have vision or presence.
