I have low kill participation because I cannot usually solo multiple enemies that are present in my lane. I don't see any reason to teleport elsewhere when I'm the one getting camped. This is where I'm starting to wonder the most, because somehow my other 2 lanes are losing without being ganked by the enemy Jungle. This is not to say the enemy Jungle never visits the other lanes, but usually it only occurs after their lanes have some insurmountable leads and it's really easy for their Jungle to just waltz down there without risk and pick up some kills or the tower. My outer tower is the last one standing in every single game, but you are suggesting I should Teleport elsewhere on the map without any certainty that I'm going to get something out of it? All this while knowing that my tower is going to fall the instant that happens because the enemy Jungle is always going to be on that side of the map? Don't take this as me disagreeing, I am just asking if this is what you are saying I should do.
I'm open to what you are saying, but I am uncertain how what you are saying is actually going to work. In my years of experience, I have a feeling I'm going to roam Mid or use my Teleport bottom and either die, waste my time doing nothing, and end up losing my tower. Ultimately giving myself a much more difficult time since now I'll have to overextend to farm when I'm already getting the shit camped out of me. I can definitely try what you are saying, but you are going to need to give me some better explanation as to what I'm actually supposed to accomplish.
I get that my Kill Participation is low, but you also need to understand that when I'm playing Ekko, he's mostly a split pushing type of champion. Ekko can 3 hit towers with only Protobelt, Lich Bane, Death Cap, and the purple elixir. It's a big enough threat that if all 3 lanes are shoving, I can always get a tower or inhibitor before dying 100% of the time. Thus in my head (and maybe it's foolish logic) when I have vision of the enemy team, I'd rather continue shoving up to a tower when they aren't close to me as opposed to leaving and walking back towards my team. Most of the time, fights happen way too fast and someone (or even my whole team) dies instantly. Personally, I feel like I could potentially walk back to help them, but if everyone dies before I get there, I'm going to end up dead or standing around doing nothing while the enemy team takes our towers. Teleporting is not an option almost ever, because it's low ELO and nobody wards and we rarely have minions nearby that I can teleport too. This is why when you look at my match history, I have low kill participation. Three matches ago, I even won a 4v5 (our support was AFK almost the entire match) because they decided to fight our team near our base 5v3 (and they killed all 3 of my teammates), but I wiped their entire base and nexus before they could even recall.
At any rate, this isn't to make excuses, I'm looking for some advice, but I wanted to explain my perspective (since you decided to bag on me pretty hard). I do believe there are many ways that I can improve, or else I wouldn't even bother asking other players for some help. What you are saying isn't always an easy decision however, and if you could give me some better understanding of how I'm supposed to accomplish what you're saying to do differently (AKA when I should be grouping with my team), I'd be grateful.
My advice is early game, to stay in your lane and win it. Make sure you are buying a pink or two to keep your own river warded in case scuttle goes to enemy team and make sure you're using your yellows effectively too. Also if your pink gets destroyed buy another! They are Invaluable and life saving especially in low ELO when warding is questionable at best.
This will give you plenty of notice if the enemy JG is coming.
If you see an opportunity to take a fight and help your team early, do not be afraid to offensively TP. Bott side bushes are great for that if there is a ward and enemy bott lane is shoving. Treat it like a gank. Pan down and check out what's going on once in a while. Ping and TP if it looks good. Don't waste TP on a fight that's engaged and lost that you are going to be late to. If they aren't placing a ward for you ask for one in chat and tell them why. Roam Mid if you have wave shoved on their tower if the Mid is overextended. Especially so if plates fall and you haven't taken tower yet.
If you your JG spots enemy JG at scuttler help him if you can. Usually it's a free kill. Keep your toplane opponent in mind too though, are you shoving in in him? Do you own river entrance? If so always cross down to help if you can. That scuttle crab benefits you 100× more than it does the Jungle.
Same goes for JG camps. If the enemy is bullying your JG early help him out if at all possible. If he's a champ that can solo kill early you might not need to but if he is a weak early Jungle you need to help them out if you can. If your JG is getting bullied in topside you should do your best to help him. You might lose a wave of CS for it but the 300g or flash burn is worth. If your mid follows up or his summs are already gone it's a guaranteed kill and he will play way more cautiously knowing he can't just get away with it.
Also when you clear your top tower you should have plenty of time to roam Mid or Bott. Play offensively. Come back to your lane to shove back the wave. Shove it passed river and go somewhere else. Help JG take Herald. TP to drag. Force in another tower. This is not a free pass to abandon lane forever though. You need to be keeping an eye on it consistently.
Make sure to group at certain points. There will be a point in the game where you should almost be grouping exclusively unless your team is severely behind and all waves are shived into you. Especially if your team is and you are ahead. Sometimes splitting is the right call. But most the time it's not unless enemy team is braindead. If the enemy team has any map awareness you should never 100 to 0 a tower off a split.
All of this is situational so keep that in mind as you adjust your lane style. Good luck out there!
