I just really started playing ranked for the first time a month or so ago and right now I'm stuck in Silver III and I'm having a lot of troulble being consistent. I try to be a teamplayer and fill for what my team needs but I'm always put in positions where I don't feel I can carry my team For example.. my team is squishy and I'm going top lane. I pick a tanky initiator (zac) cause we have none. I farm well and don't feed and actually get a kill in lane. Now when team fights happen I know my role as Zac is to initiate on them and CC/disrupt as many of their damage dealers as I can. The problem is I feel like I'm just putting my fate into the hands of my carries.. and it doesnt matter how well I initiate if my carries don't know how to dps/stay alive. Would the better choice to say fk the team.. I'm picking a carry champion top and I'm gonna kill everyone or continue to be the teams bitch? I have a buddy of mine in Diamond who pretty much says I should just try to carry every game and pick champions that can do so.. my thought is if I let my team play what they're best at it will overall increase my odds of winning. don't get me started on when they tell me I have to jungle and I inform them its not my best role. The amount of rage directed towards me is insane.. I'm supposed to gank EVERYONES lane all the time and win the lane for them.. no matter what I do its NEVER good enough After being in bronze/silver since season 1, what brought me to gold 1 was avoiding my worst roles like the plague (mid/supp) and specializing on my favorite champs for my other roles. Have a game plan, and stay focused on your goal. For instance, when I jungle (Vi), I identify what lane is doing the best on my team and just repeatedly gank/tower dive for them, basically ignoring other lanes, power farming in between the ganks. Sometimes, people will rage about no jungle help but just apologize and ignore. Once team fights start, I identify the person doing the best on the enemy team and compare them to whoever I babysat. Then I either go all in defending my guy, or trying to kill the enemy. Assuming the ganks went well and you spent your extra time farming as fast as possible, you should have a decently fed teammate who trusts you, and you should be more farmed than they enemy jungler. I find at my level, pretty much any decently fed character with a fairly strong Vi can easily wipe teams. Fed assassin+Vi is basically an instagib on any squishy, no matter how fed, Fed tank+Vi is basically an unstoppable steamroller, and fed AoE mage+vi just rips through 2v5 np. Identify your strengths and weaknesses + what champs you like to play and figure out what plan is best for you. I suck at reacting to different things during teamfights so that's why I tunnel vision on just one other ally. | ||

I still think Vlad is perfectly legitimate though ;; Vlad is a good solo-queue carry champion. Strong in teamfights or a good splitpusher, whatever you need | ||

Thinking about which champ to pick for each role also gives me something to think about during this boring work day :D =) Here are a few of mine for example. These are in order of the roles I prefer to play. Jungle Vi - I like diving, tanking, and peeling, plus Vi is awesome. #bengi Support Janna - In my experience Janna's the best way to carry a Silver League ADC. Lots of extra health and some additional damage, plus incredible peel at ALL stages of the game. I feel like a teamfight god on Janna most of the time. Mid Lissandra - My mid is shit, but I tend to go with Liss because of her stupidly good CC. Always good to bet on CC. ADC Varus - Since I have crappy ADC positioning and assume my farming will be mediocre, I trend to go with a Q-oriented Varus and just poke like hell. Plus he is an ADC with CC so I don't feel totally useless when I lose lane. Top Shen - I pretty much only top when I can Shen because I don't feel comfortable playing total island-style top (as I do) without being able to teleport. Shen also takes advantage of my decent-ish map awareness from jungling and supporting. So yeah, when you figure that out for yourself, sky's the limit. And by sky, I mean higher Leagues. | ||

I present option B, play syndra in all 5 roles. She can throw the buffs for insane jungle ganking and provides peel for either herself as ADC or for the ADC as support. Besides we shouldn't mock mathies, he changed his ID to kurO and now plays mid for IM #2. Just watch the vods vs KTA. | ||

ADC, at least in S1 and S2 lol | ||

He's actually surprisingly bullshit strong in every other role if you're good with him. Jayce is the obvious one to me, though it was more obvious pre-nerf chain. Ez a decent choice for all aside from support Jinx lol but that's because imba | ||
