Choke out your teammates. You'll win.

Seriously. If you have a team mate who is quite behind it's best if you go and take all the free farm they could possibly get so that they can't buy items and potentially make a difference in the game. Just do it. Take it all. Make the game essentially a 4v5 because they're behind anyway and there is no way they can help you win.

I disagree and will quote a proverb: "don't put all your eggs in one basket."

If you starve your team mates and you misplay and die then your mates are super screwed. Also your mates will have trouble with split pushes. I dunno.

I think one of the best things that you can do when you are ahead is to help your mates catch up.

You can never, ever trust your teammates in Solo que. If someone has already fallen behind enough that the game is essentially a 4v5, then you absolutely should not be giving them farm as they'll still play poorly regardless.

Doesn't matter if they play poorly. If you starve them out their damage gets choked off. Even a poorly skilled player that has damage/health is better than a poorly skilled player with no damage/health.

I'd say that if an ADC has 16 CS at 10 minutes it's not such a bad idea to last hit minions if you're the support. I had that yesterday, miraculously we even won that one because Miss Fortune managed to do some decent ultimates.

We actually won a losing game because I was playing Azir and my opponent Sandra wiped the floor with me and my team.

From there she hogged all the kills and became a fed monster.

But once we grouped up and our Shen got to taunt Sandra is we could take her out.

The rest of her team was so underfed we could easily take them.

I can't tell if this is a legitimate post, or sarcasm... O.o
