Is it just me or do Gold Adcs Never group?

PhantomGG·Jun 14, 2017·4 votes·559 views

So i don't have this problem with bronze/silver or plat players, but only this problem when I hit the gold range of MMR.

Gold adcs, will never EVER group. They will win lane, never rotate to siege mid, and they will just run it down bot with a mentality like this

"I will hit that nexus through the bot lane even if it kills me 11 times"

Which it often does.

Not to say Adcs shoulden't farm or look for times to push waves for minion control. But these guys aren't doing that, they are simply running it down bot, looking for one v ones, or one v twos, as if they are a split pushing yasuo/zed/riven with TP. Honestly this strat gets very annoying, and these are the type of adcs who will just mute chat so you can't even ask them to group.

Anyone else have this problem with Gold adcs?

Interesting, because I have the opposite problem.

I get adcs who rotate Mid for no reason (they think they should?), which drags the rest of their team in, then we all fuck around wasting time, gold, and xp playing pointless aram waveclear-wars.

I honestly hate when ADCs show up mid because i know they will sit there stubbornly because they think its the right thing to do, and I have to watch as they gorge themselves on my farm while the enemy adc is standing at our bot t1 taking a turret for free because no one is there to stop him.

Grouping mid is fine I guess, but make sure theres something to be taken. You wont be taking a tower in any time frame thats worth it against a viktor, so all youre doing is wasting time, xp, gold, and your lead.

Technically if they won lane it's what they should do, they should push out the bot wave real fast so the enemy team can't siege, than they rotate mid and take the tower, for well Range AD auto attacks chunk towers. But you are suppose to do it in a way where it's properly timed out where you don't waste time and just steal gold. Perhaps it's just your ADCS doing this part of the game way to early.

Step by step how to win as a adc

Step 1:win lane Step 2: Get tower and dragon Step 3: push bot lane and roatte mid Step 4: Get tower through your superior range and hopefully numbers advantage. repeat these steps to any remaining turrets

I wish. Usually it's immediate recall after taking tower, wander up mid, clear the wave slowly, and sit in mid lane twiddling thumbs.

i'm guessing you are also running into those adcs that say i don't need you after going 0/10/0 to the bot lane too

THATS THE WEIRDER PART, through my experiences they don't lose lane, they tie or win it. The problem becomes when they get cocky as fuck and completely throw their lead.

I'm a silver adc and I have to BEG my teams to group and to help peel for me

This is interesting because I have lost quite a few easy games due to my Caitlyn solo pushing bot and dying 5 or 6 times. Be sure to report every person that does that because that is Refusing to Cooperate and is a ban-able offense.

Hmmm, I seem to have the opposite problem. They group way too damn much and never defend the turrets. They wait until 30 minions are already piled onto the turret before they even think about walking in that general direction DESPITE me pinging it 30k times >(
