Can tank JG carry?

MedicalMisfit·Feb 8, 2018·1 votes·667 views

Hello, currently bronze 1. I am struggling to climb. I play Sej and Shyv. I farm, gank like crazy and build tank so I can try and cc for fights. I usually start out strong but find myself and the team losing late games when it comes to team fighting. Consistently, either my mid or adc split pushes, or tries to ward enemy jungle and dies. This leaves 4v5 fights in which enemy carry shreds us. As a tank I feel worthless when I cant get my carries to cooperate or focus enemy carries in fights. What should I be doing different. Do I help the one solo champ split push? Or should I just build full damage with this champs and try to split or carry myself? In a bit of a slump and looking for any advice. Thanks in advance.

Any champ can carry. But, a tank is essentially a support. You're playing a support. That's why you feel like you can't control the outcome of the game very well. Supports depend on their allies to carry the game, while they "support them". But if your allies are trash, then you are supporting trash.

A good support can carry a trash adc, but a good adc can't carry a trash support. A good adc will die because a bad support can't peel for him. A bad adc will still deal crap ton of damage because a good support will not let him die.

(sigh) so I have seen after rewatching my replays. I am changing to bruiser jungle and building damage and health items. Trundle, shyv, or whoever. Thank you. No more tank / support. It doesnt go well at low elo. Ill change back to support if I ever get to gold + and people know what they are actually doing.
