Sometimes I don't know what I'm doing endgame. Advice?

If I'm a jungler, I'd continue taking camps/dragon, and join in on a teamfight if there is one... If I'm adc, I'm not sure whether to split push, stay with the team to avoid getting blown up and deal damage, or take my jungle's/enemy jungle's red buff... If I'm support, I usually walk around, following the adc cluelessly, while dropping wards in bushes... If I'm mid, I'd usually stay with people because I'm only good for blowing people up... And if I'm top (ha, top, I can't play top), I'm not sure whether to backdoor all day, or join a teamfight...

What usually happens is walking around in circles in mid lane with the enemy team walking around too. The only teamfights that occur is when dragon comes up, and pretty much, whoever wins the dragon teamfight (includes not getting dragon, but ace'ing the other team), THEN progress occurs because the other team's dead, and we all push to win.

I mean, I win most of my games, but that's because I keep spam asking my friends on Skype on what to do. "Omg, I don't know what I'm doing. I'll stalk you, is that cool?" "Get objectives, turrets, buffs, etc." "I can't do that, I'd die."

The only time I know what I'm doing 100% of the time is when I'm playing ARAM. x_x It's only, "Regroup, push, win. Kill something if it's in your face."

if you ever splitpush or take enemy camps as an ADC without the team being with you late game, I will sit at fountain until you group, because that's apparently the only way to tell ADCs that no teamfight can be won without them. Same for most mids. If you aren't grouped, the enemy is, and you get picked off, its gg because missing ANYONE late game is gg. The only reason a top laner should not be grouped late game is when they're a strong duelist, have escapes and TP. Supports should stay with the team at all times. Junglers should NEVER take a camp late game if it delays them from grouping or teamfighting. The only jungler that should even think about splitpushing after 40 min is a super fed Master Yi.

I lost multiple games where I had incredibly high KDAs and objectives taken because another member of the team did not group late game, got killed by enemy bruisers/assassins and they steamroll the rest of us 5v4.

The reason you walk in circles and dance around is so that 1.) you don't die and 2.) you hope to catch the enemy in a bad rotation where they're split, then you kill half of them and steamroll the rest later.

You don't need to farm late game. What you have is what you have. No amount of farm is worth LOSING THE GAME. I've literally had full slotted ADCs go to farm top when we were fighting to kill the enemy Nexus. What the literal fuck is that?
