Ok lets say the enemy is Ahri Vi Vayne Riven Leona

and my team is Tryndamere Azir LeeSin Braum Ashe

40 min in game and its 5 vs 5 in the middle of the lane, as an ADC what do you do when you have VI and Riven targeting you? cuz you simply can't attack if they are trying to get on you.

Kite as best you can, make sure to politely ask your Braum to focus on peeling for you. Not much else to say. You're right. Nothing to do about that.

That sounds less like an adc problem and more of a "you guys collectively lost the game already" problem. If they are ahead, they are ahead. You should pick fights under your own towers, try to get picks, and do the best you can. Situation is everything. And get peeling.

theres some cases where even if your team is ahead, the enemy can win within group fights.

Definitely true. But as long as you are kiting and attacking as best you can, that's all you can do.

I agree for the most part. Its not so much you an as ADC that is doing something wrong unless you are just completely out of position. Ask your Lee Sin to peel for you. He has a kick and a slow to keep him away from you while u frost arrow. While this is happening hopefully your Braum and Trynd are doing the same thing to the other teams carry while Azir sits in the middle doing damage to people around him safely and Ulting them away when shit goes south.

If you were the target of both riven and vi, your team should have focused on them and separated them from the rest of their team. Lee sin kicks the closes away from the enemy team and azir puts up his wall towards the others and bam now you have a 5v2

Imo, I wouldn't even bother team fighting. We'd split push and disengage. Your team has plenty disengage.

Of course, that strategy seldom works in soloq. But when it does, it is fantastic!

You basically just have to prioritize doing whatever you can to survive. If that means you can't attack much, so be it. Let your team peel for you and kite as you can. Against a vi and riven, you may well have to bank on one teamfight to win the game, and avoid fighting as much as possible, because your summoners are going to be the only way to make it out of a fight alive. Buying a ghostblade might not be a bad idea for the MS active. If they keep focusing you, then as long as you can run, you can potentially act as bait and let your azir do some heavy damage. Rejoin the fight once it's safe and hopefully clean up.

Of course, that applies to the micro level of the teamfight. For the macro level, there's another factor that plays into winning in this situation, and that's the split push. Is trynd able to 1v1? If there's someone he can't 1v1, is it only one person, and can he get away from them without dying? If so, send him split pushing while the rest of you play defensively, and try to force a 4v4 while they send one of their bruisers to stop trynd. If it's only vi or riven gunning for you, it should be much easier for you to survive.
