Hello there. I quited bronze before around 2 weeks, after 400 ranked machtes. In those 400 machtes i guess i improved myself.

I have some questions and i would be glad if anyone can help me. I try to cs as much i can while i try to find any opportunity to trade and win it. If i am top and my enemy counters me i dont push wave, only last hitting and waiting for ganks and a safe kill.

After all, i want to ask, if i am mid for examble and i send my enemy to base cuz of low hp. Should i just push tower or roam and try to help my team? But if i roam and win nothing i will lose time to recall cuz i didnt make it before when my enemy did, and i will lose cs. So can anybody tell me when i have to roam and help my team?

Another one, how many tanks a normal macht needs per team?i usually try to fill with 2 tanks (1 at least) so at late game we can keep ourselves.

My cs is around 6,5-7 cs per min(20 min 130-140 creeps), i know is low, how can i improve it?

If a teammate is feeding 0/3+ should i just leave my lane and try to push his own or?

I really would be glad if anyone can help me with these issues.

please practice your farming ;_; go into a custom game and just practice last-hitting. do that like every day and you should be good in no time.

Really, most of your questions are conditional. Stalling a lane and last hitting is good for long game farming. Pushing your minions to your enemy's tower is good for denying your enemy farm, letting the wave bounce back while you return to base, roam, ward, or even grab a jungle camp or buff, .. and of course simply pushing your lane. There are even times when letting your enemy push to your tower is to your benefit. In most cases this is your chance to set your enemy up for a gank. The trick here is to make it seem as if you simply can't stop them, or they will begin to think something is up. Identifying when or why to roam is definitely a skill that can be difficult to master. Roaming to other lanes is usually good to help relieve pressure or to gank over extended opponents. Be sure to check for wards if you have a sweeper, this will help to prevent your roam being a waste of time. And sometimes it is good to appear to your enemy as if you are roaming. Remember, when your enemy doesn't know where you are, you are a threat to ALL lanes.

The best advice I can think of to help with identifying this is to try your best to watch your mini map as much as possible. Try to evaluate all of the lanes as if you were in them. What position is your opponent in? Are they stalling in order to farm? Are they pushing? Are they over extending? Are they being pushed in and need help? If you were in their position, would you want a gank?

Otherwise, just farm, ward up around your lane, trade when it is safe to do so, get the kill when you can, communicate with your jungler and other lanes, ping when enemies are missing, ping/clear enemy wards if you see them, report when summoner spells are used, ... And of course there is no way you will be able to do ALL of this 100% of the time, but if you can get even some of this down, you will notice improvement.

Lastly I just want to give some general advice that really goes beyond the game. I think people get too upset about things and like to blame their enemy or team when they don't do well. Remember that it is okay to mess up, and continue to always analyze yourself so that you can improve.
