How do you get a silver adc to build the one item that will in you the game?

I just got done with a game with an ashe adc against a draven soraka. I was playing tahm kench and the entire game i told this adc to build executioners culling because it hurts raka bad. Reduces her healing a lot. And the entire time this adc would just laugh and point out my adc because as tk your suppose to save your adcs but even if you die so thats what i did. So my question is how do you convince an adc to build 1 item that would more and likely win us the entire game?

Yes. this is good.

support = yo adc build executioners culling in the next 2-3 recalls or i will. adc= yo dont do that. supports dont build executioners. support = Yo adc, balls in your court. You have the power to stop me. up to you.

The the average ADC flames you for the rest of the game... starts trolling, inting, etc. Then you wonder why you are getting placed with these pathetic Peons when you just want to win and an executions calling would help with that but the average ADC is too moronic to figure that out...

mention the enemy champ thats healing too much, and say something like “we could use an executioner’s” or something, and then hope for the best

beyond that, nothing, as any more than that will probably just tilt them

i did that lol. I told the adc raka heals a lot and executioners counters her hard we will win if you get that item. the adc just laughed and ignored me. I hate that so much, no one uses their brains

well, not your fault. all that matters in the end is what we personally can control.

you gotta focus on your own gameplay, cuz reliable teammates are never a constant in this game LOL

When my Support tells me to build an item I take it into consideration before I make any comments... I'd like to think I'm nicer than the average peons who ADC.

Been trying to get them to do that for a while, i eventually gave up trying and started build item 3165 myself(if we even make it late enough into the game for me to do).

You dont.

If i could make everybody build zz rots i would. but i cant. so i wont.

Alolan LeafeonMay 17, 20181 votes

zz rot wouldn't do anything. raka would just heal her team to victory. I hate this damn elo so damn much. No one listens especially when facts you say are right. makes me just want to kms with how frustrating it is

it comes down to expecting too much from people to be honest.

Like a post i read about a week ago claiming low elo players weren't shot callers. Not that everyone in low elo doesn't have the ability to shot call but rather a random group of 5 are most likely unable to execute the shot call and therefore the "good" call isn't really the good one anymore. It's out of your control.

its similar to telling the adc to build something. You literally can't do anymore, you went above and beyond to carry that. It's not up to you to know how ad carries should build and its not up to you to tell them either. But you did. The rest is up to fate. out of your control. Nothing more to do.

I mean, if they weren't competent enough to take your suggestion of building GW into a soraka lane....

I don't think its in your best interest to put all your eggs in THAT basket.

Nothing else i could do. I mean draven was just farming kills off her we had an ivern. I should have just dodged the game.

Honestly, Play a role/champ that can solo carry low elo. My best experiences are when i don't have to rely on teammates to win the game, I'd rather just do it myself.

Majority of Players are too incompetent in Silver. Don't Trust in them to win the game for you.... as bad as that sounds.

Honestly, you can't. I had a game as Nami vs Red Kayn, Maokai, and Soraka, and I was the only person on our team who built healing cut. The enemy Maokai even pointed out after the game, "Nami is the only one with healing cut", and I had to buy Morello, which isn't exactly a cheap item.

I mean, luckily there is Bramble, so at least you can be tanky and still have some healing cut, but it's not as good as Executioners. I've come to the conclusion that if we need an item, I have to build it. Did top Sion build Banner, guess I need to build one. Oh look, Singed has ZZ'rot, guess I'll get that next. It's annoying, but it tends to work better than expecting people to listen to sound advice.
