Riddle Me This

TS Media··1 votes·250 views

In this current META, if your ADC is ahead 2/0 in lane and the enemy bot has no summs, as a support... why in the world would you roam and camp mid for 10+minutes? Would it NOT be more beneficial to just snowball your lead bot lane? Make the enemy bot lane useless and who cares what the other laners do. I'm just curious WHY would you prioritize top/mid over your adc bot lane (as a support and jungler) in the current meta?

Because you already had a huge lead and he was assisting other lanes to snowball the lead as a team. Its pretty standard and normally the correct thing especially if the first tower was down.

A huge lead is 2 kills 5mins into the game WITHOUT getting FB tower? Yeah, I highly doubt that. That's why we lost. Because 2 kills, and a 1/5 mid lane was soooo worth throwing the lead we had. Leaving lane and never coming back until your adc is shoved under tower, letting the enemy adc farm and your adc miss farm is DEFINITELY the way to go about things, right?

Actually yes. You are dumb. That is why you are plat 5 for a reason. You are good but you rage and you let your mind hold you back. 2 kills 5 mins in gives you an amazing advantage especially at 5 mins. Unless you are dumb and dont base to put that gold into lane.

Yup, I got plat 5 by being dumb. That makes a lot of sense. 2kills in 5mins is amazing, but your support leaving lane after thay 5minutes and not come back until 13minutes is in no way smart. 2kills aint enough to 2v1. You want your adc to 2v1, make sure they're 7+ kills in before you leave them and throw the lead. Especially if the enemy adc outscales. Abusing an advantage (especially in the strongest lane atm) is all you need to win the game. Before you start throwing around ranks and calling people dumb, evaluate your own position first.

This is why you are plat not diamond. I play norms for fun literally just play 10 ranked to get border and say im not bronze. Ill 1 v 1 you and kill you, add me. From this article alone i can assume you rage and so you close off your mind so that you think you are right. When in reality your narcissism is preventing you from climbing. So i just have to taunt you like this and i win minute 1

That's two different things, though. Both statements are true, and you don't roam by NEVER COMING BACK FOR 8 MINUTES.

2 kills at 5 minutes...IS a huge lead. That's like a potential BF sword at level 4...

I'm not saying it's not, but it's NOT huge enough for your adc to 2v1. Especially not a Tristana. If I was Draven or Lucian or something, it'd be more understanding. But a BF sword on a scaling ADC isn't nearly enough to warrant roaming about and throwing away the lead. You get kills bot THEN you roam. Rinse and repeat so your adc free farms and shoves tower. It's not the other way around. You don't ROAM and then come back expecting your adc to have the same lead as when you left 5minutes ago. That's a LOT of time. Like, a LOT.

You shouldn't leave your ADC as support for 10 minutes unless the enemy bot tower is gone.
