If I play support my adcs have no idea of how to kite, follow on trades, position or last hit.

If I play adc, my supports have no idea of what a sightstone is, or how to build properly, or how to peel me.

Why is everybody so useless?

Maybe you should consider the only common factor in all of your games... you.

Yup. As a support, you dont trade unless your adc is in range to immediately follow up. If youre an ADC, dont push without vision. If your support doesnt ward just lose out on some farm and hold off until your trinket is up. losing out on a wave is nowhere near as bad as handing over 400 gold for a death. I really only play in botlane when it comes to ranked and just being safe will carry you to gold.

You don't really need your adc always helping to trade. With Morgana you can w while they farm without problems. With Braum you can q. With Thresh you can auto. With Nami you can W. The problem is with all-ins so I either play passive protecting them or I attack the enemy and tell my adc to farm.

About playing adc, the poblem is not about going to farm. In my last game the enemy had a Riven, a Talon and a Lee. We couldn' fight because they had total control of the map and trying to walk outside the base was a suicide. Whenever a fight started, we couldn't see them coming and nobody peeled me.

As a support main I spend the first few minutes learning on whither my adc is braindead or not. Learn how your ally reacts to things and build from there. If they can clearly trade decently then you can pick when to fight. If theyre not reactive then just focus on peeling for them and roam. Nothing is more fun than knowing the enemy sees your jungler toplane so they dont expect a gank, just to have you (the support) come lock them down for a free kill. You gotta learn how your teammates trade in every game just like you have to lkearn how the enemies trade.

Having total map control in the hands of the enemy is not your supports fault entirely. Your jungler has wards and if theyre just handing the game over by not providing vision/help then thats a breakdown of usually 4 allied players. Most of the time you can spot the TP from a riven and just knowing talon isnt midlane should put you on alret. Lee sin is lee sin but hes pretty inefective if you see him coming and your one trinket is usually enough for that. Try learning to save your ward for when the enemies might be roaming.

After considering my performance through several games, I think i can be sure about the fact that I'm better than my average teammates. I don't tilt when I am losing the lane, I ask for a gank and play safe until then. I look at the map and communicate the enemy position.I know how to counterbuild depending on the enemy composition instead of doubleclicking recommended items. I listen to ally suggestions, i speak politely and I try to discuss startegies. I try to take objectives when I'm sure they can't be contested and are clean of wards, I roam other lanes when I am ahead and I don't chase into a bait. To say it more simple, I try to win.

I can understand how you feel, but you have to look at it like this, they have never thought of playing support so they dont know how the role is player, and the same thing can be said about adcs in that regarde.

instead of being salty and asking an impossible question just play through it the best you can.

I know not everybody knows how to play a role properly, that's why I try even harder to carry them when they say things like "first time support". I have no problem with them being bad. What makes me question myself about the existence of intelligent life on Earth is, for example, when I ask my Nami "please buy wards, their Talon is fed and we need to control him" She only started buying them at minute 30 when we had 3 inhibitors open. Talon ended 29/9/11. Why the **** do they have to ignore someone who knows better than them what to do? Yesterday I told my adc to buy a guardian angel as the enemy Yi was fed. The result ? He muted me and asked the enemy team to report me because I was flaming him (?). I don't get why I have to play with people who simply don't want to win.

sounds like you are hiding a few thing about yourself, like why would someone have a reason to mute you unless you are being toxic.

personally, keep to yourself from now on and dont try to help them, they dont seem to want it, the ones that do will communicate when they need to.

as far as intelligent life on earth is considered, i have to ask, why would you be passive aggressive about it and nor realise you are considered in that statement you made since you clearly do now understand what they didnt want to hear from you,

I only said "twitch, Yi is fed, you should buy a GA so you don't explode" I guess he was salty because our Karma went afk and he could do nothing.
