How to deal with other lanes feeding?

UkeNeverSeme··1 votes·4,149 views

it's a thing we all know: your lane is going fine, got a kill, and assist, and you're 20 cs ahead. Then midgame comes around, and you notice that Riven and Orianna have more than 15 kills together at 13 minutes, because karthus and shen have been attempting to see how many seconds of grey screen they can pack into a single game. Any tips on how to take it from there? you may be doing fine, but comparedly you're 3k gold behind each of them, so what to do?

You feed yourself so they dont feel left out

When both other lanes feed it's very tough, but there are a few things that you can do to increase your chances of winning.

  1. You need to make sure your jungler straight up ditches the losing lanes and diverts his attention to the lane that isn't losing.
  2. You can't go even or just win your lane, you need to dominate your lane. This means you need to start playing more aggressive and actually make plays. - this leaves room for error but you need to take the high risk - high reward chances at this point. 3.a) Once you've crushed your lane and are fed you need to push hard to get the enemy jungler/enemy nearby lane to constantly come to your lane to stop you from pushing (without feeding them) 3.b) An alternative to (3.a), you can start roaming to the other lanes and gank (this choice is more difficult as you will be trying to kill a fed champ)
  3. You need to somehow relay to your shitty teammates (without pissing them off) that once they've been crushed in lane, they NEED to build tanky ASAP!!! This one is important. If they're going to be shit bags they may as well be shit bags that can act as a front line to keep you alive.

Lastly, don't ever rage at them at this will hurt your chances the most. Everyone has bad games. Hope these tips helped somewhat.

Yah, I had a game with a Varus and I was support Nidalee . We wear a head we had taken down their fist turret and awers barely had a scratch.

Then Varus desides to go help top Quin pushes the lane destoys the turret and gets 6 mion wave Kills me and nearly destroyes the second turret but we go a top turret. :0

After this Quinn ends up begins a level a head of Varus adc gets a double kill in a team fight and Varus said how did quin get so fed..

If we had focused on pushing bot we could have maybe take all of the turrets bot and verus would have gotten feed.

I had recent games where this actually happened, one with Kennen and one with Viktor, both in the top lane.

In the game as Kennen, I won my lane really hard against the enemy Udyr, but the other lanes were losing hard. What I ended up doing was roaming to the mid lane to help out my team pick up kills and such. I basically single-handedly turned the game around by roaming, helping out my team, and using Kennen's teamfight power to decimate teamfights. I remember one midgame teamfight where I ended up setting my team up for an ace, and I was the only one to die in the process, despite being down at least 5-7 kills.

In my game on Viktor, the difference was less dramatic: I had a CS lead, but did not get any kills despite the lead, and I eventually died to a four man gank top. How I was able to win the game (in actuality, force the enemy team to surrender) was, again, I started roaming to help my team pick up kills all over the map, and eventually my team had gone from a kill deficit to a large kill advantage in the span of 5-10 minutes.

The key thing to take out of this is that you need to help your team as soon as possible. Roaming to secure objectives or kills is probably the most important thing you can do with a lane advantage. Notice that in both of the games I mentioned, I was playing in the top lane, which is the lane that can help out the other lanes the least, yet I was still able to take my lane advantage and push it through the rest of the game, and help secure my team a win despite top being the one lane least likely to impact the rest of the map.

This is what make a good player is knowing when you can leave a lane and if you should.

What kind of champion are you playing?

For example, auto attack champions, when fed, tend to be phenomenal tower pushers if left unchecked. Good warding in tandem with shoving towers can quickly gain tons of map control for you team.

the problem is obviously biggest when i'm playing ADC as there isn't really much i can solo do to support the other lanes (a alistar roam can work wonders for any lane even if they're feeding etc), and you really need your items. actually any late game champ this really sucks with because it's hard to dominate lane to the point where you can make up for the other lanes (not so if you're playing early midgame champs)

If you're succeeding as an ADC then, tell your support to ward deep into the enemy Jungle (and be sure to help him, supports shouldn't be the only ones warding) and just powershove your lane. You're right, ADC roams aren't as powerful early game since they tend to lack CC, but you know what they tend to be really good at, even during the early-midgame? Destroying towers. If you coordinate with the support and jungler correctly to maintain vision and keep you safe, you can shove down towers hard and demand attention from other lanes. This not only frees up your allies, but if you are able to spot people trying to ambush you ahead of time with the wards you and your support set up, you should be able to fall back and rotate into other lanes and threaten those towers as well.

Earlly turret pushing is wall ways a good counter to early deaths especially if the mid laner leaves to gank now the mid and jungler should be able to nuke the turret before the mid laner gets back helping your mid greatly.

You tell your support to go mid and support or top and you can handle 1v2 for a bit.

That is a supports job you just have to be really brave and hope the support will help the lane enough so they can come back to bot lane and support you again you are adc so you have to farm the support not so much.

You roam with the jungler into another lane and try to take the enemy out or take a tower.

That's my normal solution, but sometimes this happens so early (like pre level-6) and it's just not feasible to lose the xp you will lose from roaming. you will just start losing your own lane too

where are some good ways to help. champs like warwick Warwick auto attack champ will eat through towers with his W same with other champs in his lane if matched with another CC like lux. lane comps are important. if the other lanes have a bad comp your best bet is to try ganking or setting up a gank under a tower with your CC ability team mates.

lets say Morgana is doing good in her lane you can ask for her to assist and set up the gank this takes a moment to type out but if she is paying attention and has map awareness she will already be on her way to do just that. if top lane is died 3 times its a sign they need help with an early gank or two.

champs with no escape mechanic like Ahri before they get there ult may die easy against a champ with good CC in which case she will need some help to get back on her feet this might mean you need to do a little carrying or paying attention to team health bars and jumping lane to help, good warding can also help with map awareness

pinging a warning sign near there position can also help make them aware they need to back off and heal.

also getting a voice chat to use with teams can improve communication skills as well. i suggest Raidcall or teamspeak. Raid call just needs a room number and takes little to set up.

Take turrets in other lanes really helps take down the pressure on mid also good junglers

Key if Karthus is mid vs an assassin KNOW that he will need help and help him push the lane and take the turret.

Make it a disadvantage for their mid champ to roam and leave mid undefended.
