How do I become better early

Obeify··1 votes·266 views

I play ADC and I am passive until about 15 or 16 minutes then I start playing aggro, when I lose its generally because I lost early and never came back. What are some ways plat players and above pressure people out early? And how do I know when I can do them without losing more than I gain?

Lucian Draven if you sit there and stay back you will lose

Well i don't really play Draven ever. I usually play Jinx, Ashe, Ezreal, Lucian, or Tristana

Jhin is someone to pick up. He weak late game with his reloading and tanks taking his ult shots. But he really oppressive in lane so it shouldn't be hard to win trades. But draven has the highest raw damage of any adc. So Winning trades with him is easier. But he is one of the hardest adc to play

I played Jhin yesterday in a normal. I liked him, i have to get use to his limitations though.

Right click the enemy laners any time they present themselves as a target, you won't miss CS, and won't draw too much minion aggro.

Actually scratch all that. Go play support only for a month. That will teach you how to cause/handle conflict in bot while still controlling minion position. Take that knowledge back to the ADC role and combine it with csing and you will likely find yourself doing much better early.

The biggest flaw I've seen in weak ADC players is they don't understand how/when to be aggressive, and how to retaliate against enemy aggression so they aren't just getting a free lane to run over you. You don't always have to play hyper aggro to dominate the enemy, but you damn sure can't let them get away with doing so without punishing them in return or they will just walk all over you.

I do trade back when they do, but I notice often when i trade early lane phase like before 10 minutes I usually do it at the wrong time. If the bot is even until 15 I am fine. So I guess I know how to play Passive into Aggro effective, and Passive into passive, but I lack at the aggro lane into a passive lane. And my aggro lane into aggro lane is 50/50

So like for instence I would lose Lucian into Draven about 50% of the time, but Lose Lucian into Jinx almost every time. Because her whole thing is stay even until her hurricane with bf and then she kills you, but when ever i try to shut her down early, I just lose too much hp or miss too much farm, or get pushed out of lane. It may be in part because of lack of synergy but i really want to fix all my suckiness before assuming its anyone elses fault.
