I'm curious about your stream since I'm a jungler in plat 5 but I randomly stopped being able to carry once I hit plat. I was playing mostly xin zhao but it felt like he fell off a cliff when devourer was changed and I'm lost since I can't stand farming jungles so I'm no good at this devourer meta.

What are the top carry jungles right now, in your opinion?

I know it's not really a question on improvement, but I am curious. I feel like a ADC/jungle would be a weird combination to main. What sort of stuff do you think carries over between the two? I normally think jungle pairs better with support, or top. I'm not trying to imply you can't do what you want, but I'd like to hear why you chose those two, together.

I've asked a few different high diamond and master players about and they said something along the lines of "you gotta get snowballed in laning phase, and it's worth taking the risks of being really aggressive because simply not feeding and having average cs will not always make you strong enough to have a big impact on the game." What do you think about this approach/mentality?

I also feel like I don't have as much control of how fed I can get in laning phase because bot lane is decided by ganks by jungle/mid/top TP, the 2v2 matchup or the performance of my support. The lower the rank the more I feel i can simply just win by out trading mechanically and forcing kills or fights. For example, I could out CS a draven as vayne and get kills in lane regardless of the support matchup. Now I feel like I get punished or lose aggressive trades / all-ins when I force them instead of my supp; it is safer to just passively farm and react. What do you think about this? What can I change to come out of laning phase stronger?

Do you try to intervene when someone is flaming / being toxic to another team mate? When someone starts typing a lot irrelevant comments or blaming I feel like it drastically lowers my chance of winning.

I have two accounts in plat 3. Recently, I have been playing on a third account which is in high gold now. I have been tilting and getting frustrated on my high rank accounts with my lack of progress/improvement. At this point in gold I can consistently carry and win games, although I have the feeling it may almost be counter productive for trying to get diamond. I think I may BE intimidating myself when playing in high plat. For example, if I didn't know or didn't care about the ranks of the other players, I might even play better. Is there something I could do to change my mentality regarding this?

Cool! We both main the same roles! Anyways, I do have a big question. Sorry if it takes you awhile to answer it,

I'm in Bronze V (yeah, hahaha) and one important thing to me is a good team composition. I know the basic things you need, like tanks, mix of AD / AP, etc. But I would like a more thorough description of who to pick to benefit a team composition.

I've noticed that on a lot of my games as ADC, I tend to take a lot more harassment then my opposing laner. I know I already play fairly passively during laning and that usually when I harass it's just with skillshots and abilities. That in mind, how do I practice harrasment with basic attacks? I know it's an important skill, but I'm not very good doing it without taking something back in return.

So I started out playing support for my friend that is an adc, until I realized that carrying yourself out of bronze doesnt mean shit unless you have a great adc to support so then I switched my main to jg. I have been playing jg for about 10 or so patches now and have gotten my mains to rek, zac(not so good), gragas, and sej. Do you have any tips on how to better my role and add to the team fight along with synergy. Do you have any tips on how to better myself as a jg and climb out of silver? I know that I am atleast a gold player since I carry the majority of my games. I just want to play with a community of people that are self aware and understand that concepts of the game and most importantly WONT CHASE.
