Is KSing a good strategy to get fed?
Is kill stealing a good way to get fed and then carry as assasin or mage? I played Akali and when I kill steal I snowball and then i can do a lot of burst and even 1v1 a Garen! But is KSing a strategy?

I have two points to make about this topic
- The terminology Kill Steal or KS really does not exist. There have been so many times where I try to give someone a kill and it goes away or I'm forced to use a summoner to get it just because I waited too long, the term really should be kill secure
- That being said, trying to give kills to your carry is a great idea, since they depend on the gold the most. However you need to assess the situation and see whether the carry can take it. When in doubt, take it for yourself. In late game team fights In my opinion whoever gets the kill doesn't matter as much, it's all about killing them as soon as possible so you will have enough time to take objectives.
You shouldn't complain if u get KSed, even though it may not be the most optimal, and ignore the people that complain about it.
Getting someone on your team fed is definitely a strategy.
When it's you making sure you get fed without the rest of your team necessarily being in on it, not so much. I'd say this is how most people play. Often, as long as enemies are dying it strengthens the whole team and there's nothing to fight about, but there are also a lot of times where rushing in to claim a kill for yourself puts your team in a weaker position since you could have been engaging/containing/pressuring other enemies that whole time.
Please just don't be one of those people who refuses to fight then comes in to clean up
Personally I don't think the term kill stealing exist in a higher elo..... Kill secure is what i say :P
Always KS if otherwise the assist gold will be lost. (I would say you even should do that if you support) Otherwise never try to KS, just do your damage.
