Help: I cant carry

uptownpolecat··2 votes·862 views

Hey Guys I'm stuck in Silver right now. How do I carry my 1/11 Master Yi Jungle and my 0/9 Vayne?? I have been trying to get to Gold for a while now but I'm just not good enough to win games with my Aurelion Sol top who has died 6 times before 10 minutes. I guess i'll just wait til next season and hope that by then I am good enough to play all 3 lanes at the same time all while preventing my JG from being executed by Raptors. :)

Honestly it's just the luck of the draw. All I can say is get as fed as you can, take your enemies' tower as soon as possible and roam.

Learn team comp, than pick your best champion regardless of what role you have if your team is all fill with squishy, Very hard to tell when you're first pick [slayer-jinx-unamused]

I hope this doesn't seem as a surprise to you, but... to carry your elo you have to actually be better than your elo.

Ok, I'll through my two cents in here for what it is worth.

A: You are a mid laner, and by default, you need to carry, first, you need to tilt your enemies, here is how you do that.

1: Make the mid laner fear you, put pressure on him early, make him lose cs, by doing this you tempt the enemy jg to come gank you, you need to learn to ward appropriately, learn what timings they can gank from, where they start, so you can learn when you will get ganked, I find 2:30 is a safe estimate for a lvl 3 gank now adays. 2: If possible kill the enemy laner. 3: The second you get back from that, you will roam, that instant, either bot or top although I recomend bot since it can effect 4 players in the game. Your 2 laners and theirs. 4: Go back mid, MAKE THE ENEMY LANER FEAR YOU, draw jungle attention to you mid, while you have to ward a lot to make sure you have an escape route, you can starve the enemy laner AND make the jg waste their time, its perfect, and a while, you either kill the enemy mid or make them go back, in which case, you go back too, and go bot straight away, MAKE YOUR BOT LANE GET AHEAD. 5: By now the enemy bot lane will complain that they are never getting ganks and that the mid is roaming without punish. 6: Snowball it form there, either dive the bot lane and kill them and take tower, or take dragon, just get one lane other then yourself ahead.

Now, I have solo carried games before just from me getting ahead mid, but it is stupidly difficult.

This is the basic things you can do to alleviate jg pressure from your bot and top lane while you need to learn to escape jg ganks and pressure your enemy laner.

Any questions?

This was actually helpful, Thanks!! :) I'm just sick and tired of winning my lane, roaming and getting kills in other lanes, just to overall lose the game because instead of team fighting my team decides to get picked off 1 by 1 until I'm stuck in a 2v5. But, I guess that's just happens when you're playing in bronze/silver. :/

I just need to learn to only play Duo queue that way I can guarantee at least 1 of my teammates isn't completely worthless. :D

I suggest, since you should try to be getting a cs lead and a kill lead in mid, ALWAYS let your team (adc) get the kills if you can, it will make the enemy bot lane (who may even still be stronger after the gank) more afraid to let lets say your vayne scale and free farm just because they think they are weaker because she got a kill.

I also have a few champions who do this so well in so many ways depending on your team comp. Here are the ones I use.

Ahri Great at assassinating, VERY safe, good wave clear.

Annie Pick her if your comp lacks cc or engage, the amount of times I have flashed in on a 4 v 5 because our adc got caught and won the game because of it is actually ridiculous. I recommend looking up annie bot and how he plays annie, where you don't take ap runes. But instead take MS quints, and then a ton of cdr, armor, and mr.

Now for the hypercarry of the selection. Cassiopeia This champ is insane, so many things, kite, cc, slows, self speed ups, poke, zoning, apc (not adc) apc damage, and is a HUGE lane bully, very good at doing at doing what I mentioned before
