People taking farm from late game carries

Beníto··1 votes·608 views

I played a game earlier today as kayle mid lane against a yas mid lane, I admit I didnt really do very good that game and got 2 deaths but that was it for the laning phase. Then the whole team streams up to mid and starts taking all my cs and since its a lucian ADC, its gonna be nearly impossible for me to outclear him as I am still pretty behind in damage. All the lanes are pushed and the jungle camps cleared so I am not even sure what to farm. When it comes to kills, they mostly just get snagged by our udyr even though I may need the gold more than him. If you guys have any suggestions on what to do in this situation tell me. I was telling my teammates to let me farm so I can do some damage, but they just ignore me. So I create this to spread the message to the ignorant players of LoL. When you have a late game carry please do not take their farm, unless you yourself are a late game carry also, farm your own damn lane for goodness sakes.

TL;DR : Stop taking farm and kills from late game carries

When you're playing mid in Bronze and everyone comes to your lane and starts playing ARAM, just grab some wards and go farm bot/top lane, warding the adjacent jg to make sure you don't get ambushed.

Thats one of the reason why I would rather play top lane or jungle rather than mid because your lane is so accesible for other laners so if they push up their lane and want farm, they would most likely be taking the jungle or mid lane farm. Usually I play tanky champions at top lane so I do not come across this problem often and when I do, I do not really know what to do about it. Thanks for the tip.

the solution is accept you are no longer the carry and build to support lucian/udyr

If you're already behind as the carry, then you give your farm to other carries that might have a chance to take your responsibility. It's a simple logic.

You are not entitled to your farm, you have to earn it. If your early game is not so promising, other scaling champs have their every right to take your cs from you as long as they are gonna do a good job with it, or at least better than you.

Please don't be that guy.

One person isn't entitled to all the farm, especially if you're grouped up in a lane (if it's still laning phase, junglers please take it light on the minion tax!). Nor are you entitled to the kills. It's better if you have the kills, but shit happens and getting an assist is better than someone letting a kill get away because they didn't want to KS.

You want the farm and kills?

Last-hit better. Assists give gold too, so it's not the end of the world.

I agree completely. If you are in a carry role, you need the farm. Especially if you are behind. It amazes me to no end that people don't realize your chances of winning with one carry are about 5%. If you come to my lane, and I'm not there, just last hit minions till I get back. That way the CS isn't wasted and I can still farm some.

It's precisely because you're behind as a carry, that you're not supposed to take anything at all as it would all be a waste on you since you can no longer snowball.

EDIT: You can still farm, but you will have lower priority than other carries your team has, unless you're the only one then you're screwed either way.

We are talking about late game carries. The more farm you deny them, the longer it takes them to come online. This gives the enemy team the time they need to win the game before the late carry can do their job.

If you're already offline there is no point wasting capitals to bring you back on, might as well improve the other ones currently online and doing well.

Unless just like I mentioned, you're the only one supposed to be carrying, then well, good luck trying to fix you. Other than that, a carry who is behind should just stay behind and go support the other carry.

Ok, first of all,farm and kills don't belong to you. And everyone wants himself to be strong, rather than carry, atleast in lower divisions. So, now what do you do?You can splitpush, and farm that way. I've seen jax whowas 0/5 in lane come back by splitpushing. Just make shure your team don't engage 4vs5. What else can youdo? Try to get assists. They grant gold too. So basicly you need either to be support-like for some time or splitpush. Just don't let them catch you out in the open alone

Thanks guys for the tips, next time I will try to build a more supporty type of build instead of trying to go full damage, but I still find it annoying in the laning phase where your jungler does absolutely nothing to help you in your lane then takes and smites the farm while your still in the lane.
