Silver, need advice

SpookyNeedle··3 votes·534 views

So I main Fiora, I usually win my lane and get decently ahead. But the problem is I can't carry when teammates die a lot. So should I push the wave and try to roam? What do I do if my teammate(s) keeps pushing then dying? What if my opponent pushes my wave when I'm roaming?

I need help with carrying the game with my lead

I'd focus on making sure you are very far ahead of your enemy laner, both in kills and CS. You need to translate that lead into a lead for your team, which means if you can't effectively split push and solo 2+ while taking objectives, you need to help your team.

Keepan eye on the map. See your bot lane is over extending ans about to get caught in a fight? Turn that around with your lwad and TP down there! Communicate with your jungle after you kill your laner and secure ridt herald, etc.

Hope this helps.

You have to balance split pushing effectively with team fighting when you need to. You also need to use your lead elsewhere on the map before your teammates manage to lose it

As far as teamfighting, I see this a lot on people playing melee carries in low ELO, if you just get cc'd and die diving the enemy carry then for the love of god stop diving the enemy carry. Your damage is relevant no matter who you hit, but you do no damage when dead.

If you are as far ahead as you say you, I would continue to mostly splitpush, especially on a champion like fiora (assuming you can easily 1v1 the enemy top laner). You should abuse you're advantage by pushing and dueling alone and teleport when you're team needs you. Now, this doesn't mean recklessly push and get yourself killed, ward up and be safe, pay attention to where everyone is on the map. If you are pushed far up in lane make sure that if you get ganked that your team is in position to take objectives elsewhere (as in they are not all just coming back from base) because 9 times out of 10 taking an objective (dragon or a tower) is more beneficial than a solo kill on you, and your team should have the advantage on the 3v4 you provided by drawing 2 people towards you. Again, if you are ahead then make special care to keep an eye on other lanes, because being ahead means you can win most skirmishes, so manage your TP well, and avoid using it just to get back to lane (unless it's to farm a HUGE (about 15) amount of minions that would otherwise die at tower or to stop the other team from knocking down a tower)

I think you need to watch some of Trick2g's videos.

He's a jungler who shows you how to win games by objective play. Even though his focus is on jungle, his videos explain a lot on what to do with leads and what to do to give yourself big leads if you're behind.

One tip is to try to always save your teleport to help your team. Never TP to lane unless you need to early to save your tower or avoid falling behind in XP. Ask your support or adc to ward the lane brush near the enemy tower in bot lane, and when the enemy bot lane pushes you can TP behind to make a play. This usually works really well in low elo. This will hopefully help your bot lane get ahead so they won't die as much. It can also get you dragons.

Roaming mid can help after you pushed the wave as you can be there to countergank if the enemy jungler comes. This can be a good strategy if your mid is getting ganked a lot.

In most cases if your teammate(s) gets picked off and dies in the mid/late game you have to back off and play safe until they respawn, but sometimes the enemy team will just all go push mid/baron/dragon and ignore you in which case you should usually push really hard and you can hopefully trade towers.
