If you have a higher statistical probability of losing the game when playing a traditional ADC, and your chances of winning are higher by playing a fighter (like Yasuo, Pantheon, Dr. Mundo, etc.), then wouldn't it make more sense to not play ADC and save yourself the headache?

[@freakalmighty2533]

Support main: Honestly the segment of playing to your partner's strengths and playstyle (whether you are supp or adc) is the most underrated advice on youtube. Maybe it's not the flashiest example for this kind of video, but it deserves a video of itself. Back in season 9 I climbed from Gold IV to Diamond 3 in 2 months basically following this principle. I was confident I already had decent fundamentals and game knowledge, but coin flipped too many games by being too focused on playing the game "the right way" and complained about "bad adcs". Then I started really playing the botlane the way it's meant to be played, as a lane you share with someone else. You ADCs, and supports watching, will definitely spend part of lane phase studying your opponents, seeing how they react to your trades, and finding patterns to land your skillshots. Study your own Support and ADC the same way, and play accordingly. Be patient. This doesn't mean that you will always stomp lane like this, but it will make it easier to do so. In lanes where you don't manage to get a lead, it will certainly minimize damage and save you from catastrophic consequences. Think about it: will forcing "the right play" as if you're following a textbook, work out if your partner doesn't know that is the right play and doesn't know how to execute it? Knowing you should engage because you would win the fight doesn't mean you should do it if your partner isn't fighting with you. That is the definition of autopilot. Be patient. Remember that as an ADC, as you have little agency early on, the most important thing you can do is to FARM. Everything else is a bonus. If your support is "bad", adapt to their style by applying good fundamentals and make sure you are farming and not falling behind. As a support, remember that your game isn't made or broken in botlane. If your ADC is "bad", apply good fundamentals to wave control to look for roams and to help your jungler. If you remain patient, you will ensure you will never miss your window to carry the game. You have been waiting for it all along, it cannot catch you off guard. You will not miss your shot. BE PATIENT, GODDAMNIT. You will be un-tiltable, my friend. That is how you climb.

[@IIBluEPHoeNiX]

Really nice 👍🏻

[@tobias97erdt]

The question I am asking myself is weather objectives were as impactful as they are now at the times you describe. Today you can't really be just patient and wait. If you spend the first 20 minutes to farm and and get groving the enemy team might aswell already have 2 dragons and 1 herald. You simply don't have the time in a so fast paced game as league is nowadays to patiently do things sadly. You still have to adjust to your lane partner but you won't get many time/chances to do which is why duoQ is performing waaay better

[@freakalmighty2533]

I'm still readjusting, as I've just come back to the game after a long time, so I'm unable to compare the value of objectives appropriately. I was talking more about lane phase, however. ADCs have much fewer options, and you are right about that, you cannot wait indefinitely. There is almost nothing you can do about early heralds, but there actually is a fair amount you can do about dragons. The advice to be patient and farm, even with a useless support, is primarily so that you are healthy and in lane so that you can control the wave. Get prio to those dragon fights and position and space accordingly. ADC is a role that FEELS like you are entirely dependent on your team's performance, but when it comes to teamfights your role is literally made for that. But staying healthy and farmed and, most importantly, IN LANE when you need to be, is going to immensely facilitate you coming up big for your team even with a useless support. You won't be able to do this every game, of course. If your Lulu is carving her name on your tower for 15 minutes, while you are being blasted by Ezreal and Xerath, you will have little agency over the wave. But that's where I suggest patience. Playing ADC requires an immense amount of patience (and so does Support to be honest). If you focus only on what you can do on the moment, rather than on what you could hypothetically be doing in a perfect world, you will never fail when the spotlight is on you. Don't succumb to outcome bias, focus on yourself, and think critically of what the enemy is doing and what your lane partner is doing so that you can act accordingly. Honestly I only wrote the original comment precisely because that's what helped me climb. I didn't have 100% winrate, but in the games where I maintained that attitude and focus, I damn near won all of them. I honestly think that's the hardest part of league of legends, even harder than dealing with terrible teammates.

[@mylynguyen6512]

That is the best advice ever ! I've always thought i was doing "good" by following support guides videos, but in games, i noticed my ADCs didnt all have the knowledge... For example, all-ins with lvl 2 advantage doesn't work everytime 🌝 I have to admit i was in auto pilote 😭 From now, i'm going pay attention to my mate behaviour and ennemies reactions ! Ty ❤️

[@freakalmighty2533]

@@mylynguyen6512 ❤ I hope it helps in your games. Remember you can still help elsewhere if you recognize that your ADC is beyond help. Just make sure they can still farm and cannot be dove. Or, if you are sacrificing them to a dive, that you are getting something done elsewhere. They are still a part of the team and you will need them to not be too behind (or worst: tilted) later on Good luck!

[@adityanambisan8569]

As a support main who usually watches vids on how to handle bad ADCs, this was extremely insightful on how my ADC sees me and what expectations they have.

[@fabriciocotov]

I really loved this video because even do it shows some knowledge of league it mainly focuses on the psychological aspect of the game. Today I actually play two games in a row where my adcs were playing horrible but both were hyper carries, so I just did my best to help them recover and even do our laning phase suck, we were able to end up winning because we didn’t flame each other and at the end they just scale better than the other adc. One trick I was taught a long time ago by my coach is that when you die a few times in a row you can say that its not your game anymore and instead imagine that for some reason someone let you play for them. If you really focus on that, your mindset can change from “Oh no what do I do carry the game” to “I´m going to do my best and if it´s not enough its okay”. The second one might not be a perfect formula to win by itself, but it will increase your chances by releasing you from all that pressure and letting you think more clearly.

[@MaXimumRide47]

That's a great way to think about it, thanks for posting this!

[@TheJJZeeman]

I played a game against 3 assassins on the enemy team, and I had picked Ashe. But I took bone plating and overgrowth in my runes, and I built immortal shieldbow. You should have seen how confused the fizz was after his full combo didn't kill me. You can change your build instead of changing your champ to melee bruiser!!

[@mylynguyen6512]

Ye i almost always take shieldbow as well on Tristana, it's not a recommended build, but most often AD assassins (yi, nocturne, talon) are so fed u need the shieldbow ! However if the assassin is AP, you can look to build Maw of Malmorthius+kracken, instead of shieldbow, it gives you more damage, attack speed, and tankiness than shieldbow if you are facing AP champions!

[@pookielane-gessiri3747]

I’ve done this with Xayah, rushing Shieldbow, against a full AP bot lane with Karthus jungle. It worked so well to help us not feed hard mid game which was enough for us to eventually win the game. Took nullifying orb and gathering storm and also bought a stopwatch at some point lol

6:36 "Play off what they can do, instead of focusing too much on what the optimal play would be." Needed that put into words, thanks.

[@threadedpat]

i agree with alot of this but, you forgot to add what happens when mid/jungle/top int so hard its a turbo loss, like sure itemization helps preventing you from being 1 shotted but there's always a trade-off for damage. So higher-elo games you get punished wayyyy faster and have a lot less opportunities for carrying a game. You brought up the fact that ADC's pay for others mistakes and i love u for it

[@archer454]

I mean most of the time in that case it’s not really a winnable game unless you do really well in lane. Some games you will lose it’s just how it is.

[@fanboye5183]

14:56 Trying to suggest Jax bot lane in low elo without admitting it will absolutely tilt your team every time is the most clinically insane thing I’ve ever heard. My duo gets flamed for picking Ashe support, and that’s not even that far off meta.

[@TheJJZeeman]

Exactly what I was thinking. Your team will think you're trolling. Plus, do you really want to limit the range of your team that hard? I think it's better to change the item build of an adc champion than to pick a melee bruiser.

[@douwemusic]

In my experience they only start really committing to tilting if you get killed 1-2+ times. As soon as you get 1 or 2 kills everyone suddenly gets silent.

[@lefroste6370]

ff? what is the point of your question "what should i do if my jungler feeds draven 5 kills in 5 minutes and my mid goes afk to walk his dog" you open mid. that's what you do. You aren't going to win every game in your elo because you aren't diamond, climbing doesn't happen in a day and some games are unwinnable. that being said if your support is inting the only thing you can do is not int yourself, and probably give first turret so you can farm for free. i won so many games because i lost lane, enemy took turret then they got bored and started perma fighting while i racked up 9cs/min and did twice their damage in teamfights

[@Natteboss]

@@lefroste6370 same principle if your support decides to be a second jungler as well? As in you give first turret and cope?

[@lefroste6370]

@@Natteboss it actually mainly applies to when your support actually left, if he's still there it's possible you can avoid getting perma shoved and might be able to minimize but if it's a tough lane you're gonna get perma sieged anyway so you cant do anything about it and never go 2v2 with a support you dont trust unless its 100% winnable, the thing about adc is that you can just minimize lane and scale and unless you tried to force random fights you will come back even if behind 40 cs

[@blueberrypie7133]

I feel like the best way for that is to have it so everyone is muted when you’re in game. It gives u less of a chance to tilt.

[@Limlammin]

Best thing I can suggest is disabling chat - you don't need it to communicate! Pings are more than enough and if someone isn't using them properly just mute them individually. If you still have the urge to spam ping or type, send messages with chat disabled and they won't actually be sent. It's like writing an angry email and deleting it; nobody else gets tilted and you get to vent out your frustration.

[@meisterlampe3275]

just roleswap mid and play ADCs there. Best decision I've ever made for my mental

[@arminb3939]

That's why professional players have team quarters, cooks, coaches, sleep schedules, etc., and even physical exercises mandated. You have to be comfortable with yourself to get into the right mental state. Set a time window in the day specifically for playing 3 to 5 ranked games, include pauses in between games to cool down, maybe analyse mistakes and prepare for next game. Don't play more games than you set out to, and instead invest that time in finding a healthy diet that works for you, exercising, talking with friends, or doing other things that have nothing to do with league. Keep your goals relatively low, not too low, think in weekly goals. Every weekend you can see progress, and if there was none or little, don't get mad about it, there is still next week.

There's plenty adc champs that can safely scale up ezreal, kaisa and xayah work well into full dive teams just don't be to stuborn to buy a defensive item. There's nothing better than getting focused by an assasin who just instantly dies while doing 60% of your health because you got him tied up in anathema's chains. Adapting your build so you can survive the threaths you can't dodge is essential to playing adc. All 3 off those can be first picked even if they are not optimal in all matchups, that's just how getting first pick works sadly.

At that point, you can only hope your team isn't easily influenced to flaming, thus the rest of your team may tilt for having a random bad support feeding kills to their laners and ready to FF, even if you are staying alive 1 v 2 at botlane despite the occasional 1 v 3 from jungle gank and the team being convinced that you ARE a bad adc because you might've died to the 3 v 1 tower dive. I'm sorry for the rant, but if I had a nickel every time this happened, I'd have at least every prestige skin.

[@htmlpent]

"if you are always better than the other adc in your elo, then you will eventually climb" wish that was true

[@birdsarentrealbro]

When Lulu backs at 2:55 she types "noobs pwned!!"

[@ErsolTV]

Lulu dropping "noobs pwned!!!" in allchat after the 1 for 2 at the start... I can't hate the goofy little shit, they're too precious

[@crzzymnn911]

Haven't played this game in ages, searched "Adc in 2023" and in less than three minutes I remembered why I stopped playing lol.

[@xthe_moonx]

i never take cleanse because i never remember i got it. same with zonyas. ill always push d thinking im gonna heal.

[@jongahimer5338]

I’ve about giving up on support in gold elo. I main Alistar and every adc just perma pushes to turret. I’d love to hold midlane or in front of our turret and spoon feed them kills, but they just aren’t willing to cooperate.

[@okin536]

9:10 love to see it. support flames adc only for sivir to 1v2 from recalling correctly 😆

[@douwemusic]

This is why Senna support is so nice. You can literally pick anything with her, melee/mage/adc, and it will work well

[@Runstarr33]

The schedule of these releases make me feel like I'm targeted

[@JoMama___735]

in low elo people can either play garen with galeforce or kayn top or maybe fiddlesticks top and yasuo mid. Then you lose this game because the enemy team have 1million mastery kata on mid and yasuo who is an iron player with his average win rate 30%. After that you want to try your luck for another game where you are bot or mid to cover the skill gap between your average teammates on bronze or silver. But then you realize that your kayn is 3/10 in 10 minutes and bot lane is screaming bcs of Kayn and supp diff. Every game on low elo is hell you will almost never be satisfied by your own teammates and pisses me off , bcs it feels like you have to bleed to win one game sometimes. This is not the case for higher elo players where you get normal and experienced players based on your skills and rank. And most importantly players who are able to follow simple commands and acting reasonable using strategy to win a trade and not just dogfights

[@Negativity808]

Adc mains also feel siper entitled to stuff to. (Gm support/ad/jg player) got my ADC smurf to master finally. I get so mad when my supports play bad since I'm a 6 year support main lol great advice tho really gotta remind myself to not tilt

[@yaouG1]

This is daily average support on league and they will type you are trash and they will start roaming. They literally do not know the ABC-s of laning phase

[@Shirley_Studios]

What can I do to help me not go on auto pilot and think through the duration of the game?

[@KaelumKrispr]

Watching this as a support just so I get some tips on how to help more

[@odiseirekt5168]

Bros playing in wood 4

[@mazukai6525]

Well the answer to that question is you get a trash support or a bot support in low elo, I got a varus for a support that didn't land a single q, I got a yuumi for a support (that was a bot) followed me and latched onto me as long as I was alive and never did anything besides that or bad team comps (it normally isn't this as long as the support knows what they are doing)

[@xokirei]

best way to climb as adc is play literally any other lane

[@philaplap3293]

No 💀 adc isnt a bad role, everyone saying that just sucks at the role

[@kpomasterify]

it's just more difficult than the other roles but you can climb with it, I've been climbing from silver to plat with 80% wr with some of my main champs, it took me like 100 games and analyzing some of my games after every session to get consistent wins tho, you can probably get faster results in other roles

[@ScreamWestSide]

@@philaplap3293 It is bad compared to other roles tho

[@floridaman5524]

@@philaplap3293 yeah well everyone who plays adc sucks at the role that's the point

[@vlveil3534]

Lol, ADC is an insanely good role

[@hermit-67]

Pantheon adc is a good pick if you want to steamroll over the right enemy bot lane, your W is 600 range so most adcs just die if they try to aa you.

[@kelancameron1625]

I think you forgot the fact that the enemy team are 50% duo laners right? It’s essentially always 2v1 in bot lane if don’t have a duo support

[@wotizlove]

because everytime i rank up i get absolut mental psychos or boosted egirl 3 games in a row to halt my climb

[@noah8405]

11:20 “nearly full HP” vs 11:45 “half HP” are almost exactly the same lol

[@flankengott5349]

Nice catch but in the first clip cait will heal from hp regen + dorans blade while jhin is still dead, so she probably was nearly full hp by the time jhin got back

[@danielmattos2813]

im a support and the other day in reanked my adc decided to also pick up smite and be a second jungler and before u think one of them is a bot, nah both of them were real people who engaged in conversation in the chat. this rogua adc proceeded to call both our top lane and actual jungle braindead...

[@Arejen03]

That lulu pushing the wave literally made me angry af

[@haise4470]

Is that the ezreal voice actor?

[@skilon72]

yes

[@hayin2041]

My support is either aurelion, viegar, teemo, brand, lux,... With dark harvest and hide behind me all the time in iron gameplay..

[@mekelius]

Yeea this is why I switched roles. Ofc I could try to learn how to deal with all kinds of supports and match their skill level and all that. But to me that sounds like a very bad time. I want to focus on improving my own skills, not trying to decipher what my support can or cannot do.

[@flyinpoulpus]

In one of your videos you say to stick to one champion to climb elo and now you say the exact opposite. I'm confused.

[@tripleb4528]

Welp, time to play Sett adc in my Bronze games now.

[@Frozen0wl]

the lower your elo, the better it works

[@zombznoob9495]

Can you also make a guide on how to climb as a toplaner? Or if possible as singed?

[@biggiecheese2004]

You need a specific guide for singed because he plays so much differently than any other champ. Other than that, take good trades early and zone off cs if you are in a good matchup. In a bad one (poppy vs Darius), you wait for them to get tilted and mess up an ability by you not interacting at all and then punish with a trade and keep doing that over and over. Also keep in mind 50% of all top lane wins all just from runes. Make sure your runes are constantly changing. Runes you would never take on your champ may be the play depending on the lane/comp. Back to my poppy example, poppy should take phase rush there because if Darius ever engages you just instant proc PR and run away. Runes here will keep you from feeding

[@LucabariTV]

This jax pick was just troll on so many lvls. There is no way it could work against varus pyke.

[@univerchizelz6715]

Me and my AD win every bot lane matchup but can't win the game against fed junglers and top lanes just constantly one shotting us

[@vegardkjrberg1929]

So the games where enemy jungle camps lane 4 first min, legit stands in the bush furthest to my tower while I freeze for 2 min even after he gank me first thing he does after rushing lvl 3. Then I proceed to freeze the fuck out of enemy twitch to the point im 90cs to his 45 at 12 min even tho I am 1/2 and he is 3/0. But ofc then my entire topside proceed to go 2/9 1/10 and 3/14. Im just suppose to take that L even tho I did my best to try to do something?

[@kevinmoy3752]

Aaand after saving your mental, your mid feeds 0-5, and the enemy mid one-shots you and your support.

[@wisd0mcu8e420]

it sounds like ezreal commentating his own game

[@MastaPhil666]

Tip 6 I already use. I play Wild Rift, and I will play Dr. Mundo in the duo lane, build full tank, and do more damage than a Caitlyn with 3 items.

[@insertclevernamehere6607]

Don’t pay for their bullshit, just queue mid. Most ADC’s can function in mid lane if you know how to play them properly, it makes you less dependent on your team.

[@filipepinho3319]

Usually I don't type to bash on my supp.... I tilt myself alone and join the apes squad... after all apes together strong 💪:D

[@el_sad_catto]

Still waiting for a Jax enemy ADC to show up in my bot lane.

[@jirachi1999rocks]

Extremely helpful vidd

[@taylorpost8347]

Do you voice Ezreal?

[@friendlyfoe5882]

I play adc for 5 years and i can tell you Playing solo adc without duo support is a nightmare and u just gamble games After masters u get tryhards at every role untill then play with duo support main or ur just rnging games, u cant do shit if ull get 0/7 supports in 10 minutes , so u can stop searching vids for how to climb as adc

[@katapella175]

no sence to go solo in botlane, when the duos on botlane gets the unfair advantage. You cant voice with the teammate on your lane meaning u be like 80% versus 100% of power
