Fixing my ADC

Arcura·10/2/2015, 5:57:21 PM·1 votes·656 views

I'm level 21 right now, and I main adc with MissFortune Miss Fortune . I usually do pretty well, getting 12+ kills in a game, but a problem I'm trying to work out right now, before I start getting into ranked matches, is that I'm still dying more than I should. Typically I find this happens most in the mid game, after the laning phase. Which then causes me to die for the rest of the game too because now the enemy adc is getting geared up before I can. I have a roughly 50/50 win/loss ratio right now, and I'm trying to correct this.

Does anybody have any idea what I might be doing wrong? I'm looking for constructive feedback, which isn't usually what I get from friends or teams (friends tend to be arrogant about it, and teams just tend to be angry). If it helps, feel free to add me if you're willing to play a game with me to see.

Positioning in fights can help with dying. Don't try to go after the targets in the back just shoot at what is closest when you are an ADC. Kite tanks if they get close. Also the enemy ADC might be farming more than you which leads to item advantage

You'll need to be a bit more specific if you want more than general advice like "stand safely to cast".

Look at how you're dying and the death screen. Is it Irelia who dealt a ton of damage and took you down? Did a Rengar jump on you and delete you, or maybe Annie decided to aim right at you and take you down instantly. A lot of the skill in staying safe as a marksman is knowing what to do facing different threats. A Swain running at you is just not the same as Jax or Tryndamere. See what's causing you to die.
