As an ADC Main -- Help

What do I do to win lane if my support is feeding the enemy ADC. Like going 0-5-1 in lane phase or something similar to this ? Not saying that it happens to me a lot, but it does happen and I end up losing lane because of it and not only that it put pressure on the rest of the team to over compensate

Nothing man.

I just play extra safe and farm like a maniac...Let the tower go if I have to.

They will go off to do other things, like push mid, Ill stay and farm-farm-farm. (Within reason)

Gotta get build up enough to help the team and not dying at that point (and further feeding him) is probably the best thing you can do.

Just do what ever you need to do to not feed yourself. Go take jungle camps, clear tri brush of wards. Just get gold in order to complete items. That's the big deal with ADCs. Completing Items. Then comes Mecanics, then game knowledge. Without items ur shit. Got items? Good. Terrible mechanics well... You need to improve otherwise you wont win. Got items and good mechanics but didn't know the enemy had exhaust up and you tried to flash Varus's Q and condemn him into the wall only to get exhausted and shit on? Well, you need to improve. There's a ton of things you can do to improve. If your support feeds, just tell him to go help mid lane or something. Supports should roam if they want to make an impact and get their team ahead.

Your post doesn't contain enough information for me to respond constructively with what you should do. Only about what you need to consider when you're thinking "this support sucks"

It's not as simple as "they died 5 times" specifically when it's the support. There are many factors in why they did and sometimes NEEDED to die.

Things to consider when this is happening: Did you die a bunch too? Did the support die trying to peel/save your ass? Or were they legitimitly stupid and just didn't play safe for no reason?

I main support, and I will gladly die if it means my adc gets to live and continue to farm. I've done it countless times. Sometimes a get a stupid adc that tells me I shouldn't die so much. Sometimes I will get adcs that don't take advantage of my peeling to allow them to escape. For example The matchup is severely unfavourable, and while I'm peeling my adc just continues to try and fight. What happens? We both die. Instead of me leaving them to die, or saving them and dieing in their place, they make it the worst case scenario and stick around only to die right after they finish myself off.

In short, them "feeding the adc" isn't always the wrong thing to do. It's never a good thing, but sometimes it's the best thing to do if they're playing right and you are the one making the mistakes.

In general, though, CS better than your opponent, lane safely, harass correctly, know the difference between your support sucking and when they die purposely because it's the best possible scenario, and learn to recognize when your support is dieing FOR you.

you lose lane, dont try to save turret if its low, back away and run. Farm, look for plays somewhere else. I had this happen when i had a kassadin supppukes in mouth and we lost lane so hard to a vayne. And we lost it even harder because i tried to 'do stuff' for too long. By 15 mins this vayne could flash under a turret and kill someone and role out and still have 3/4 health. Dont try to win whats lost and focus on no death and cs
