    I would like to add some important things to the video that have been oversimplefied
    The main problem with this video is that it doesnt teach you the exceptions to the rule (=maximising your income through proper side lane management)
    The decision making whether it's worth helping or farming is the key factor .
    You never always push and you never always group. Every case is unique .
    Generally speaking one of the many things you need to consider are your powerspikes .
    If you are a Lucian , you will do more grouping during your powerspikes and more farming when you havent reached them ( Side laning forces enemy to match your split push ).
    You need to understand who is more worth in a team fight.
    If you are 0/5 Lucian and you force the 10 /0 jinx ( with IE runaan Shiv ) on the side lane, it is macrowise the correct choice since she can't spread her lead.
    Otherwise if you are fed , you wanna group alot and help your teammates get fed ( strong teammates means less pressure for the adc during game deciding teamfights, No one will pay attention to your 10/0 Ashe if there is a 5/0 Sylas murdering everyone). Being 10 cs/min and perfect kda at the end of the game means nothing if the rest of your team pays for it and cant help in Team fights when 3 People flash for you
    ofc You shouldnt neglect maximising your income if you are grouping while being fed . But do it near your teams and about to be contested objectives.
    For example by taking the sidelane near the upcoming objective or your Jungler's camp
    If you go side lane , always be cautious about upcoming objectives , Vision contest ( For baron ) as well as assasins with strong and fast target access.
    Another point : Side laning is even more important if enemy team has strong team fighting Champs like Veigar yuumi etc. Sometimes it is even worth to push a sidewaves 20 sec before drake and getting multiple towers for a drake.

    As an adc, I'm doing all that, the problem being, my enemies too, so even though I'm extremely rarely losing lane, and always keep income flowing, that's still just being solo in pair with my enemies and still having to 1v5 all the time, wich is not realy doable.
    there still is too many ppl in low elo that sure doesn't want to lose the game, but doesn't want to win either, that's what elo hell is about.

    • @Scoltren
      @Scoltren 3 роки тому +2

      Hello fellow adc main here, you CAN carry with ADCs but it depends on how early some adcs get their powerspikes. Example: Vayne can start to do massive damage after just one mythic item while Lucian is gonna need Essence Reaver AND a mythic item. Samira, Tristana, Kog'maw, all of these and alike can cause mental disturbance for the enemy team just by getting a few kills. If you already play them and still can't win, that's entirely on you. I had a feeding Master Yi mid that ran it down my botlane because I typed "Yi stop dying". I won the game 18/0.

They fight champions 4 lvls ahead of them, they have 0 10 at 10 min, they start fights 2v5 etc. You just can't "just farm" because you just lose. I have a 50% win rate on almost every adc just because every other game i get at least 1 winning lane. If I have just one lane that doesn't feed, engages for no reasons and realizes what you are doing i win... every other it's every lane losing :D ello hell :D

  • @deejayf69

    Alirght I have to agree and say this is an amazing guid but the reason why I think ADC sucks is that you get 4 man dived by 10 minutes. Also supposedly why so many people dislike the current state of ADC is probably because all you do is farm for 30 minutes straight to then still have to have a support near you to carry teamfights. Comparing this to a darius who could 1v5 teamfights makes it understadable why.
    Not to say this video was bad in any way, in fact this concept can be applied to mid and top lane as well. I just wanna throw my 2 cents in here

You got only theoretical knowledge, but not practical. What is the reason to get waves, when your team keeps permanently fighting without you? Do you really think they will let the adc take the farm on side lane?

      On one hand yes. Pro play is a completely different game. Especially the adc role, I see that every clash game, which isn't even close to pro play, but still way more competitive.
      But on the other hand, high elo players constantly get 10 cs +. If I get 7 cs a game, I am satisfied. But these players get 3 cs more by average than me. You don't just get that by "farming better". They catch waves more efficient, they are always looking to generate gold. This is what this video is about:
      you are adc. You don't don't make plays. Your team makes plays. You can only follow (only very few adc can actually engage). You try to force the enemy into making mistakes by managing waves. Always look to generate gold,so you can fulfill your role.

      Yeah I have the same issue. The tips are good for sure, but the way it’s presented is disingenuous. Like saying” look at this pro player” while saying adc “feels” bad because 99.9% of players don’t know how to play the role (while ignoring that the same is true for every other role) is just idiotic. There are definitely games where an ADC will pop off or situations where they shine, but overall even high tier players openly agree the role is comparatively weaker in far too many situations.

Senna has 600, but she's a support (I disagree with Senna ADC, don't even start "Senna can also be played as an ADC"), but she can range her at 40 stacks(around 10-15 minutes), but as her early stack gathering is so crucial, I don't pick Senna against cait.

    I think this was a very good video. I was an adc main who was hardstuck Silver 2 for most of the season. I switched to mid and am now up to Silver 1 (while that might not seem like a lot, I was hardstuck for a LONG time in S2/S3) after only a week of switching the roles. I think my problem with ADC is that it doesn't offer the same level of influence as mid or jg or even support in the early stages of the game that can really get the game going in your favor. An early lead in bot doesn't mean anything, as the video suggests, whereas an early lead in any of the other roles mentioned is seemingly more game-changing. That said, this video makes me cautiously optimistic about playing adc again. Jhin is my favorite champ and I'd love to get a chance to play him more effectively in ranked, but I still don't think that adc is as strong as other roles (keep in mind that assassins are hardly picked up in current pro play, making adc seem stronger than it is).

    @Amalasian 3 роки тому

    so the way i can grasp this the best is: by having the wave pushed into a tower you have the most options. you could gfo someplace else you cvan take jungle camps on either side. you can push tower. as well lanes are a danger point. they will be giving info to the other team of peoples location because you can be seen by the minions your killing. so if say you go rocks into lane that is equal to no vision into vision ending the sequence in vision. but lane into rocks would be vision into no vision leaving you vanished and harder to target. you must use this same idea on the enemies. where you want to watch where its vision into no vision or the other way around. the first is often danger to you or others on your team or objectives. wherer the other shows intent on where they are in vision. this alows you to from pushing the wave corectly to deside if you will either copy them or not. example 4 v5 mid lane your at tower. you can see your safe and can take tower. but if that 4v5 becomes a 4v3 or 4v2 or what ever you know that you now have to deside if you will copy them and go from vision to no vision or if say you see them almost die and will b not come for you you can keep going or go for kills or what ever you want because the vision is the lowest when their minions are under their tower.

      To be fair, she stood in fountain for at least 10 seconds, so if she had acted immediately she probably could have at least caught a wave or two. Krugs would've been suicide though.

    Love the channel but this guide is senseless;
    TL&DR - Telling everyone to always push is not a Macro Improvement and will probably have toxic results.
    There were some absurd examples (not to mention rather offensive towards the players in the video) in which pushing the wave could have ended in worse results (being prone/susceptible to being ganked or losing inhibitors) and it never took into consideration the team aspect of Macro (as if Macro didn't involve your team), like pinging your Team, warning you are playing for the Late Game or coordinating objectives with pushes. This seems more like it would incentivize toxic and selfish behaviour than improve anyone's Macro. You can always brainlessly push waves as ADC if your team is on the same page as you, easily applicable to ProPlay and High Elo (hence the Doublelift's example). I hope no low ELO player fall for this overly generalized fallacy and keeps trying to improve their judgement on WHEN to farm and when to group.

    @kristophertadlock779 3 роки тому +1

    The message I get from skill capped over and over again is always be solo farming in the mid game. I have a hard time putting this advice to use for a couple of reasons. First, my teammates and the enemy team are fighting all the time, so instead of the enemy lanes looking to farm like I am they are always roaming together looking for picks. Every time a push a wave solo I risk getting three man dived out of nowhere. The second is that the enemy is fighting all the time, so the bit of CS and XP I get from farming waves doesn't matter so much if the enemy carries are getting more ahead by just killing my teammates. How do i carry the game if I don't put myself really far ahead in gold? The third problem I have is that the enemy is fighting all the time, and if I am farming a wave on the other side of the map I can participate in the fight or influence how the game will snowball. The frustration I feel as ADC is that I don't have options. When do I completely take the game into my hands and 1v9 like you would if you are a fed solo laner? Please make a video on when I shouldn't be farming, so I have the confidence to collect CS when I know it's not time to fight. Thank you.

    • @blairwest5962
      @blairwest5962 3 роки тому

      k, so ima try to help with the info that I have ascertained over the years(and these last two seasons more importantly). You have to learn how to win lane in order to set yourself up for a better transition. I will agree that adcs are the weaker role until you hit 3 items(for most), so winning lane is paramount. I suggest playing hyper aggressive until you learn the limits of the champions(hopefully no more than 3) that you main. Then you will know what you can and can not do on those champions. Practice this until you are able to move onto other concepts. However, you want to always try to know where the jungler is. Push hard, and ping your support to help you get a deep ward when you see him in another lane(wards last 3 mins). This video guide is all about midgame(usually when you are ahead and want to stay that way and close out games). Apply all those concepts here. When you are behind, spam ping your team to not fight and try to hit your next item power spike. Since it's low elo, ofc your team will want to try and fight every chance that they get, so farming quickly and effectively is important here. When you are ahead, it is your job to do damage AND NOT DIE. The not dying part is paramount as you are literally a walking bag of gold looking to help someone get back into the game. When you are behind, you will literally have to "Out-Mechanics" the other team or hope that you can stall til 3 to 4 items. There is no way around that. If you can not do that while farming effectively, you wont climb and you will always feel that your team is holding you back.
      TL;DR if you are ahead by midgame, follow this video guide. If you are behind, spam ping your teamates, try to get to your nearest power spike, and "out-mechanics" the enemy team. Mute your team if you have too. I been there, and I still am practicing it.

    2. maybe your team actually needs you and they would win a big important fight
    3. sometimes you dont want to push a whole wave first sometimes it is actually better to kill one or two casters to create a slowpush then searching for a fight with in that time if u know u win and use the big slow pushed wave to push turrets
    and there are probably some more ideas why it is not always right to push wave first, just my oppinion ^^

    I am confused for the question at 6:43. I am not saying your answer is wrong but I am just confused as to how Tristana made an error. From my knowledge if Tristana crashed the wave then backed in the Alcove to avoid dying to the already rotating team (They are rotating to drag and they had a ward on Kruggs bush so they would know Tristana is pushing) then she would allow herself to get one more wave, deny the enemy team a wave (since bot wave would die to tower) and allow the Hecarim or Jax to collect the Mid wave (thus avoiding sharing exp/gold).
    From what I can tell based on the map, I thought Tristana made the right play. Since Braum didn't clear the Krugg bush ward, if Tristana keeps pushing then the enemy team could possible get the Inhibitor since Hecarim and Jax we just spawning and Fiora had double buffs and their team had at least 3 mid. Thus I thought she should rotate mid to prevent a Mid Inhibitor loss and I thought she managed the wave well. Since Blue side lost Tier 1 bot tower then wouldn't the enemy bot lane minions be buffed? Thus the if the Red and Blue minions meet at the middle of the lane then Red's minions would always push? Since she didn't affect the wave and it will collide in the middle of the lane then doesn't that mean Red's minions push towards Blue? Thus it would deny exp and gold from Red side, Red's Minions would slow push into Blue, and Tristana gets to save Inhibitor, not get ganked/collapsed on (because they have vision on her, also Nunu was missing most like prepping for Dragon), and she gets cannon+the wave mid, and she is able to help her Braum if he gets caught in Blue's jungle (lets Braum w to her or Tristana can use her ult to push off champions from Braum). Thus doesn't rotating to Mid be better? It is a lot safer and you get more gold/exp for the "carry". Again I'm not saying you are wrong, I just want to understand what concepts I have incorrect.

    If there is a big enemy wave stacked killing your waves is it still right to push the wave rather than doing nearby jungle camps first? Surely in this instance its okay to do the krugs first as its denying the enemy team your minions? Lmk if i am wrong i want help lol

    Going mid would be the same bcoz in plat and lower mid and top dont change lanes
    Mid will almost always go mid again mid game after laning phase

      That’s false half the time they swap and he said if not just go back bot

      @@buddermasteru5074 That's not false, me thinks, I should know I'm a low gold and I've only had one singular game where our mid laner decided to swap with bot lane.

    Its like everyone in low elo just forgets to farm when midgame rolls around, and just start looking for fights. It feels like if you follow this guide and look for gold your team will just throw themselves into 4v5's over and over

    Great guides but the only problem i have is that everytime i try to push lane cause i really want to farm, im always getting execute by an assassin, even when im at 1st wave at tier 2 tower. And my blue ward wont make enough vision to protect me of that.

    Could you add arrows to the minimap icons indicating the direction champs are heading? At 5:54, you ask where Trist should go. Yasuo shows at dragon pit, but I have no idea if he's heading up to mid or down to bot. The "correct" answer is to go mid because Yas is headed bot, but I can't tell that from the freezeframe.

    I have a question on the first situation , why pushing top wave instead of pushing bot wave is there any difference ? I would be glad if someone answers my question

    When you push out do you continue taking the tower or rotate to your team?

    • @subyouwont
      @subyouwont 3 роки тому

      If you see all the enemies you’re safe to take the tower. But if somebodies missing, especially a fast assassin, get out of dodge

    so at about 4.5+ min: i can see 3 blue team on the map, and have good bot vision - i can farm the bot jg and catch the wave as it pushes in mid (safest) . . . what i would like to do is get vision top side (scuttle) and maybe farm top side jg on the way to check scuttle. if i cant get scuttle i (their whole unseen portion of the team top side?) i can catch the wave mid - the path top is more dangerous that way . . .

      As adc it's better to leave the vision control to jungler and support. Instead of farming Krugs, you can farm wolves and raptors then go mid.
