How do you take control of a game, forcing the other team into a responsive, reactive position?

Hello! I was Gold 5 last season, still in Silver 1 right now, and I want to win more games (obviously, lol). What is a winning strategy when it comes to lane rotations, objective-taking, and minion wave-control? Watching LCS matches, sometimes there will be a team that is dictating the other team, and the other team is forced into a responsive, defensive position. I want to know how to lead my team so that we can hold that dictating position. Thank you!

objectives win games typically you can force to respond by pressuring objectives its real easy, just give them a reason, and what better reason than threatening their objective You might as well flat out say in all-chat "im backdooring your nexus" THEY ARE GOING TO RESPOND cuz if they dont, they will lose the game

LCS can do it as a team because they ARE a team, they arent stupid in ranked or normals... you and everyone around you are in a GROUP, you are hardly a TEAM yes, there is a major difference Thats why you gotta pressure objectives alone, simply by being a split pusher srsly, i won a 4 v 5 this way: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1721471522/217735621?tab=overview

Splitpusher's job is to literally make the other team respond and defend turrets

If you want force the enemy into a defensive position, set up complete vision control in the enemy jungle and take at least one of their inhibitors. When you take down an inhibitor, super minions will start spawning in that respective lane and if left alone, the super minion will kill the minion waves and push into the enemy's nexus turrets/nexus so the enemy must push out that lane. When you set up complete vision control in the enemy jungle (putting out alot of wards, pinking different bushes, and clearing out enemy wards), you can easily ambush the enemy and when they can't set up vision in their own jungle, they'll play scared. If you have a champion that can splitpush well like tryndamere/udyr, having them spitpush down a lane will force the enemy to react to it.

If you wanna take control of a game your team has to be more active or aggressive in a sense. now i dont mean starting fights or diving towers randomly( not recommended) but dragons up in one minute then start grouping and warding around the area with your team dont just rush there right when is spawns. Remember what they say if your on time your late. Basically if you want to take controll of the gam try to always be 1 step ahead of your opponent (or 7 whatever strikes your fancy) item 2050 item 3187 item 3363 item 2049 item 2044 item 2045 item 2043 and vision op
