#1 tip I've gotten was just focus on dying less
worked wonders for me. it's simple but good. I started to focus a lot more on good ward timing, timing flashes so I know when I can do shit and when they can all-in me, only picking fights I know for sure I can win, etc.
it's possible to be too careful though of course, but it's good advice in the lower levels imo, because chances are you're erring on the side of playing too recklessly instead of playing too safe. the repercussions of playing too safe are also much smaller than playing too recklessly.
I find it to be the exact opposite especially on melee, so I think it's a case by case basis.

Also depends on your role. As a toplaner, dying is often half your job (the other being not feeding in lane).

Most pros are also rather bad though. You should never follow their advice blindly either.

Was wondering how other ADC mains have been doing in solo queue lately. Ever since cinderhulk my winrate plummeted from around 80% to 40%. Feels like I have zero impact in every game that I fail to go 6 - 0 in lane. Is this just me being inconsistent?
adc sucks in solo queue unless you duo with a support and completely dominate your lane. tanks are way too good and when people dont peel for you it's just an awful meta for adc's.

I wanna play a coin-based support so so badly... but are there other good champs besides Janna where it's optimal? Except Soraka. -.-

I would really like to be able to transfer IP from my main to my smurf.

I have heard this said a lot, but it is exceedingly rare that dying is your job. What krndandaman is saying is correct, focusing on dying less is one of the best things to focus on (regardless of role) to climb soloQ ranks.

On most utility supports it's good to switch into Coin->Talisman once lane is over, you wont get that many procs off and Talisman is the best support item build out of your gold generator. Starting Coin leaves you incredible weak, and Soraka is honestly the only champion I can see it work on - on anyone else you're making it hard for your adc safely as the enemy simply will be stronger than you. When you can get away with a Coin start, it's because you're against a lane that's weak early, which you ironically want the offensive stats even moreso against.
It can sorta work on Bard if your adc is ok with you leaving him alone often (you need to rush into mobis and Medallion in this case), Frostfang is still super strong on him since a meep auto triggers 2 stacks which is pretty brutal early.
Soraka is honestly the only support I'd start Coin on, even after the buff. Maybe if you look up your opponents on op.gg or whatever and see both of them are not maining botlane you can do it, but then it'd be better to just fuck 'em up with the superior stats you get from Relic/Frostfang.

I just wish you could start level 30 on different regions if you only got a level 30 account on another, I dont care about runes/champions on your main. Just pls let me skip the boring grind Rito, ruining games before you get unto Smurf Island is boring and winning/losing games solely on having more/higher smurfs is even worse.

All new players should have Mejai/Sword as suggested item so they'd learn early to play safe and take advantage of early leads. ^^

yeah but there's no denying that adc is the most team-reliant role. it's a lot easier to help your team and carry games by getting fed as mid/top/jungle than it is as adc. even if you're fed you still need your team to peel for you and shit

I build it on Thresh, Naut, Ali and Leona, much to disdain of my ADC but satisfaction of myself.

That coin on Leo in the go4lol gave me cancer.

Everyone who builds coin, not playing Soraka, gives me cancer.

I can see people go coin instead of spellthief's, but coin instead of relic shield rarely makes sense to me.
Maybe with Garen, Olaf and a nonmobile adc to rush Talisman. But also then only if you have weak initiation as the support. So perhaps as Thresh or Blitzcrank in a Garen, Olaf, random midlaner, Jinx team.

Maybe. Maybe the solution to ADC is to stop trying to make big plays.

Or play ADC that are capable of making the plays.
