Recalling at full health vs a player with none

teushu90·Sep 28, 2016·6 votes·1,105 views

So I'm a support and lately I have had nothing to support. Why? I'll be healing and what not as Soraka and I noticed when the enemy has us pressed against the turret my adc will recall at FULL HEALTH leaving me a support with about half health due to healing him to defend a turret by myself against 2-3 people! And then later while they go against one person I'll be healing them over and over again bringing them to full health and they run back and forth hitting the champ once or letting them farm a bit before acting and letting them attack him and barely attacking back and resulting in death. I don't get it...then they wanna blame you as a soraka for not tanking for them and you really can't because you are using your own health to heal them so Soraka should stay back behind the champion! Please let me know why some of you adc's do this?

It's because they don't have that specific game knowledge. Aka they're stupid.

Been trying to get my last lvl 7 token for Soraka for the last couple of days... it makes me feel like there are no competent ADC's out there anymore.

Tbh I feel like people try too hard to get the tokens. They basically tilt themselves with it.

It will come naturally, if you perform well you will get it. Patience is key.

They need to buy items, specially if they are pushed to the tower with a Soraka who can't really make the enemies go away. If they buy an item they might actually be able to push the enemies and regain their advantage.

I'm just saying because you asked why i would do this. I prefer to do this than loose 40 farm while i can't push back and my Soraka can't do it either.

Ya but if you got full health it's not like they're gonna dive you and get a kill. You wanna stay in lane for as much experience and cs as possible (cs under tower isn't hard). The optimal time to back would be when they finally back, or if you shove your lane and back while your creeps are under their tower. Just saying (I could be wrong too, not like I'm a great player).

Its not a problem with getting pushed exactly (Even so dont recall at full health, protect the turret and dont be a coward this goes for games where ADC vs ADC and Support vs Support are about even on KD to KD ratio not talking about those who have been fed) but my main problem is when we are about to push their tower and we both have full health and they have one guy and barely worse off 2 guys who have about 1/4 health and we are slamming them or their tower is RIGHT there almost destroyed and there isnt but maybe 1 or 2 enemy minions and several of ours and no champs just us 2 with full health and the ADC recalls for no reason.

Idk i used to play a lot of Soraka and now I main adc so I feel ya. Just shitty players who don't know how to lane with a Soraka support.

Spam pings on the adc if he is going back at a time that will get the tower pushed down. Sometimes people tunnel vision on BF sword and aren't thinking.

Spamming pings is never the answer. Ping once or twice, then let him go. You can't control what your teammates do, just how you respond to it, and what suggestions you make.

You're in Bronze dude, don't coach the game. You spam when its an emergency.

Lol! This was actually my exact same problem. This is the reason I was trying to come up with a support build that can make solo plays. There are people who'd do this to a Soraka, or people who do not follow up on a Thresh/Blitz hook that's hard to land, or people who don't click Thresh's lantern, etc. Its cancer that they are not working with you, but you can't really force them to work with you. Use this on Sona. Its for solo games where the adc doesn't work with you (among other things). Once it stops happening, you can go back to your old build. http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/sona-the-solo-aggressive-support-an-in-depth-guide-486735

I mean I am a Mastery 7 Soraka and I can push people off my turret and hold my lane very well alone, it's just like for example; You and your adc are under your tower defending it and all against 2 then even worse maybe more champs are down there and while you have maybe 1/4 and the tower is say about 3/4's health and your adc is at full health decides at barely any gold (Enough gold or not doesn't matter the tower does when it's directly attacked) to recall back to base leaving you to fend off your opponents while your jungle is off dying to a monster somehow....I think it's just plain stupid for adc to recall at full health in this situation.
