In silver and getting DESTROYED? ADC Tips?

CIint·4/29/2018, 8:08:53 PM·1 votes·1,673 views

I am pretty new to league and have been playing for probably around 2 months now. I played my placement matches and got put into silver 5. Now every single game I play I get absolutely destroyed in the lane. No matter what I do I always find myself under the turret and losing the CS battle by at least double my CS. I dont relatively feed a whole lot, but I its clear who the better adc is from the start. Usually when I play normals I do really well and I feel like im not getting any better. I want to become a better player. I'm not to familiar with kiting and I kinda know how to do it but its kinda hard to be in a sense. Any tips for a better ADC would be appreciated. I feel like everything from my positioning to my kiting is bad so I really just need some advice.

Thanks

Try to focus on farming early on, and wait for your jungler to gank your lane. Push the lane as little as possible, or else the enemy jungler will gank you instead.

I usually start with the cull when I'm focusing on farming, because you'll get all money back for it eventually.

Depending on what adc you play, try to punish the enemy for positioning themself poorly. MF is a good champ to play because of how she easily punishes enemies with bad positioning.

Move inbetween your autos, never stand still. You should also move in a random path, making it harder for enemies to hit with skillshots.

You're facing a botlane that has a support with heals? Don't waste your mana poking too much, as they will just heal it back up. Try to burst them down together with your support when they are out of position.

Don't auto a enemy champ when you're in the middle of the enemy minion-wave. and don't fight early on in the middle of the wave either, as you will take alot of extra damage from them

I don't play adc much but this tip goes for almost everyone, including you. Work on farming.

You generally seem to average 5-6 farm per minute most games, I'd recommend trying to get 6.5+ farm per minute. You won't believe how much just a little more farm helps!

Most of the time the enemy (in low silver elo) won't know how to deal with you if you have a big enough gold advantage, especially as (generally) the most snowbally role in the game it can be really useful and win you a lot of games.

(Since you're kinda new if you don't know how to see your farm per minute or stats in general, http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Ceewarz <-- That's your op.gg which is a good resource to see your stats and such.)

One thing I learned that helped me with ADC is trading, one great one to do is when the enemy goes to last hit, be in position to auto attack them, that way they cant retaliate. an example would be

enemy adc walks up to last hit

match them, standing to pressure them when they go for the cs

when you see them go for it, auto them

retreat

doing this repeatedly, especially on cannon minions now, will help you to gain a HP advantage over your lane opponent, forcing them to back off or risk you going all in on them. It can take a long time to master but once you have it down its a great way to get a lot of free lane pressure.
