i'd rather the support get it than have a support who sits behind the ADC and never enables kills in the first place
[QUOTE=3picFail;51596576]If you're trying to tell me that supports taking kills isn't counterproductive then you can fuck off. No shit I can pressure lane when one of them are dead. I don't need you to tell me that. As to "The fuck does that matter[?]" It matters because I want to finish my item and fucking snowball. I'm not going to go for a kill to give it to my support and "pressure" them, I can pressure the fucking shit out of them when I have two or three items.[/QUOTE]
What's the matter with everyone crying about "ks" in this fucking game where escapes are 2/3rds of the abilities? A kill is a fucking kill.

from an adc's perspective though, if your support keeps pulling a whoopsie and killing the enemy by accident, it's still a major setback to you
then there's always that jungler who uses literally everything to get the kill even if it's already basically guaranteed, enemy is ignited with 10 health left, still uses flash, smite and ulti to get the kill

Kills do matter for adcs you'll see people like qtpie complain when he has all assists because it's not worth as much and can set him a bit behind if the other adc has kills
Except he plays in challenger where skill gaps are closer. If u can't beat a 0-3 adc when you're 0-0-3 then it's completely you being worse, during that death time you should be able to make back any missed gold from the kill by shoving or taking tower
But really killing your enemy is more important than getting assist gold over kill gold, the only carry where kills really matter is draven
I'm sorry guys playing adc just makes me really salty. But for every few shitty lanes I get theres always one support or team that goes out of their way to not be toxic. Feels good.
Just had a Sion called "Trainsgender" with the mecha skin in my team :v:

The difference between kill and assist is 150g. That's about 1 wave. 1 wave that you can now make up and deny to the enemy laner by pushing into tower. Depending on how late into laning it is, it's probably more like 1.5-2 waves. So now you're ahead 150g from assist and 150-300g from CS they missed. From them dying 1 time. If you can't snowball off that you deserve whatever shit elo you're in right now.
You're right I was just being a salty fuck boy. ADC is probably my worst lane and I get frustrated easily, especially when me and my support aren't getting along well.
I switched off being a mostly Adc player last season because the role was getting worse with how overpowered jungle was and I have continued that trend into this season

Bot lane feels pretty bad to play this season. I think I need to learn how to roam better, but right now unless you go something stupid like 8/0 in the first 15 minutes you have shit all impact on the game until late. Win lane 3/1? Too bad, their 0/2 jungler is still up 2 levels and oneshots your ADC. Mid lane went even on kills but has 20 more CS and got your tower first. Top lane hasn't seen the rest of the map since 0:15 and the kill tally up there is getting into exponents.
Or worse, it's like season 5 all over again. Go 1 Teemo past river and 2 TPs and the jungler are suddenly bottom.

[quote]the ability of top laners to teleport down at any time (Shen in particular is guilty of this) and bring down heavy CC and vastly superior damage to ADC's early game while being more tanky than ADC's at the same time makes playing aggressive difficult.[/quote]
This in particular is a reason I don't play ADC that often. Top laners are rather egregious offenders in this regard but so many people can just waltz all over you early game. Every time I've recently played ADC resulted in a borefest of a lane, just farming away because playing an aggressive early lane is not only not worth as much as it used to be (because of early kill gold nerfs) but also WAY too big a risk.
doublelift was soloqing and got matched against clg's bot lane who were duoing. still won though
the only adc I really play anymore is jhin and it's because all you really need to do with him is stay grouped with your team to get kills
other than that it's very much a "fine, if I HAVE to" kind of role
And Jhin damage is absolutely disgusting
I don't care if it's bronze, I don't care if this Shen wasn't very good anyway, this gave me a hearty laugh.

I gotta have to agree with you Whoopsalot I logged onto one of my low ranked accounts and they simply don't understand shit how Illaoi works
I can see why this is entertaining you
all of my loot has disappeared. has anyone encountered this before?
this rengar kept calling me a faggot for ks'ing using my ulti as gangplank

I mean if you did snipe the kill he might have a point despite the rough language
oh my god i hate ranked
enemy picks nasus
our mid picks teemo
offer him to take top and i'll take mid since teemo in to nasus is a free lane
"nah i'm going ap teemo"
??????
WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH SHIT
EDIT: his win ratio on teemo in ranked is 15%
15%
fuck my elo i guess
[QUOTE=Moofy;51602161]I mean if you did snipe the kill he might have a point despite the rough language[/QUOTE]
only did it when I knew he couldn't get it
first kill was ekko, who ulted to kill the rengar and survived with like, 100 health
apparently that's a ks because he was going to pull a fucking magic trick from beyond the grave
second kill was jinx who ankle broke the fuck out of rengar with a sick flash juke, rengar's flash and ulti were both down so there's no way he could've caught up
and the final kill was when I ulti'd their entire team during a teamfight and ended up killing somebody who rengar was killing
somehow won that game and got silver 2 in my placements (!!!)
Shouldn't be too hard to climb back to gold, unlike S6 where I went from gold to fucking bronze 3
If you're playing decent( score wise, always on top ) in Normals you should have no problems getting to Gold.

Had a game sometime ago with a really good Tresh player and pretty much all I did was follow him around and he would just feed me kills as Jhin. You stay with your team while doing damage from afar and you're pretty much untouchable. Late-game you pretty much vaporize any champion regardless if they are a tank or a squishy.

that moment when you have both essence reaver and rapid firecannon is bliss

Dodge. Wait out your penalty, requeue, if you have to dodge again do it but just play normals for the rest of the day. Your MMR will stay intact, and that's the important part.

Oh that was a placement nevermind, yeah always play your placements regardless. I should probably read the rest of the thread.

If you're statistically average you get placed silver. Silver is average.
Everything above that is above average.
(although for the past 3 seasons i've just gotten to gold then stopped doing ranked cus I just want that border lol)
