Give me a little help, higher elo players

UniSect·8/13/2019, 6:38:02 PM·1 votes·562 views

Im hard, broad climbing. No smurfs boosting me, no smurf of my own. Just me and learning from Streamers as well as help/experience through each game. And im getting near Diamond elo. But I feel like im learning less and im just getting lucky. Like, im not learning anything special yet. So if you could assist:

  • How can I keep my lead up when im ahead in lane especially as an adc? Do i help roam the enemy jungle? Rotate other lanes before destroying bot turret? Or do I leave that to my support and lead up if its most necessary?

  • If im currently losing lane (Hence not lost lane), and wave is pushing towards me enough for enemy to recall, but its too much for me to clear fast enough to push back before I could recall, when is it okay to leave it or am I forced to stay?

  • Is it right for an adc to lead an engage during the laning phase? Or right before we get a gank? Or should the support and jungle lead first? Because I swear, I get a mixture of both every game.

  • Give me some pointers on how and when to control the laning phase. Some people freeze the way, someone hard farm past the first tier turret, preventing enemy to get xp, others control the farm to their wish so they can do other things. How and when could I do any of that?

I could understand a small degree of each of these but im not sure if im learning this later than others. But if I could get support, its appreciated.

depends on your opponents, and your champion, if you are squishy and don't have enough sustain, never roam alone, you can flank some lanes, but i advice not taking your own junglers monsters, you can try invading the other jungler if warded well enough, if you aren't squishy.

don't rotate lanes, destroy towers fast enough for the gold, lane pushing is important, keeping towers standing makes no sense, create an unsafe lane for your opponents, open up more flanking possibilities for your jungler.

  • If im currently losing lane (Hence not lost lane), and wave is pushing towards me enough for enemy to recall, but its too much for me to clear fast enough to push back before I could recall, when is it okay to leave it or am I forced to stay?

if you have enough gold for a decent item you can recall, or if you have enough health left wave clear than recall.

  • Is it right for an adc to lead an engage during the laning phase? Or right before we get a gank? Or should the support and jungle lead first? Because I swear, I get a mixture of both every game.

normally the tank or jungle/support lead first, the adc generally stands behind the defence, unless you are absolutely sure you can deal with whats coming, you have a getaway, or enough sustain, you can use target pings to start an engage, to tell them you want to engage.

  • Give me some pointers on how and when to control the laning phase. Some people freeze the way, someone hard farm past the first tier turret, preventing enemy to get xp, others control the farm to their wish so they can do other things. How and when could I do any of that?

thats situational, and depends on your opponent, vs a veigar or nasus, you want to deny, meaning to freeze the farm, if you want to deny exp, do so against opponents from the start, when you know their jungler won't give you a hard time, and everything is well warded.

I could understand a small degree of each of these but im not sure if im learning this later than others. But if I could get support, its appreciated.
