A) I ask them nicely to help out the more useful team members while I soak exp and gold alone while creating some pressure. If they don't, that's really on them and not you. This has never ever been an issue. Although probably one in 200 games you might get a support like this. B) These kinds of players will inevitably be in your teams. These kinds of players will find some reason to tilt over, no matter what you do. Like if you did group with them, and then obviously died because you had no items and exp, they would ping you anyway and claim AD diff. How is that scenario any better than doing something useful and being flamed over it? Why would you want to do the wrong play, just to get a different flavor of flame from your team? C) Okay this sucks for sure. How is it going to be any different if you were there with your boots and half an item, 5 levels behind? Like in this scenario where the enemy steamrolls that hard through your team, what do you do as an ADC if you aren't really fed and ahead? What is the better alternative, than trying to get back into the game while possibly tricking some K/D player into trying to catch you? Like see how all of your arguments against this tactic, take unwinnable situations where you have zero agency one way or the other, and try to use those as issues against this strategy? Sure like all of your three points are situations where this tactic for getting back into the game won't work. But sometimes team difference is just too big for you to impact it. This is still the best strategy for getting back into the game and winning a lost game. If it works even 30% of the time to turn a loss into a win, it's still going to raise your hard stuck 50/50 winrate into 65/35 until you climb as a result.

Ah, yes the adc split tactic. What happens in low Elo is either the supports comes to you to steal exp or your team fights in mid 4vs5 before flaming you for not being there. You can split all you want but if your team is dead and the enemy is reaching your inhib you are kinda forced to come back. Or, you continue to split to bot tear 3 while enemy is taking nexus.

another one that has no concept of the benefit of consistency. The video doesn't promise 100% win rate. The video doesn't say you'll carry every game and WHO THE HELL are these people that CARE about being flamed and don't mute chat?!?!?!?! that's a big reason you can't climb anyways. If your team is dead and the enemy is taking your inhib with 4, can you stop them by yourself anyways? then it doesn't matter. AND if this strategy wasn't more consistent than traditional adc playstyles, challengers wouldn't be using it whenever they climb through the low elo ranks. Do you not understand that in the few cases where your support comes to you to steal exp or your team loses the fight, then you lose the game? look even if you're so good you have a 60% WR, which is climbing very quickly, out of 200 games you still lost 80 of them. 80 is a shit ton of games to lose. Strategies don't just omit the games you're going to lose. They give you a way to more consistently carry games and just because using a strategy means that you can still lose the game doesn't mean it's a bad strategy. You don't know more than the challengers making the video. Complaining about how you can still lose when implementing the strategy they use to carry is just ignorance. If you were as good and knowledgeable as them you would be challenger too.

As a ADC main who solo queued to diamond can confirm this works. The best part is most supports typically ditch you when you lose lane, so it actually makes this strategy a lot easier. And even if the enemy bot lane stays and 2v1's you, play for just wave clear. They are dedicating 2 of their fed players to deal with one feeding player. 👍

Just defend mid and be a nuisance to the enemy". Jungler actually asked me: "How?" and I replied "By killing minions, Mr Tarzan, did you spend that much time in the jungle that you forgot what those are? Don't try killing the enemy, just clear the waves" Surely enough, I was a level up on the enemy ADC and 1.5k gold. Of course, this was during plat, it's a bir harder to do in D+

I split push often and avoid teamfights (as adc )that i cant make it to before they start. I get even when behind using the strategies i see here. I then look to help the team. Ive never considered not going to help once im even or being willing to die for pressure to keep up in other lanes. Ill try that this next week. Ive had your service in the past but gained not a single rank so i dropped it. I still appreciate the quality of the presentation though. This strategy is interesting so ill try it.

I'm an Ashe one-trick and I discovered huge portions of this strat on my own down here in bronze and went 9 wins 1 loss on my placements this season by playing like this. Ashe E is super powerful for split pushing safely with the level of jungle tracking you can do with it. I know I'm a filthy bronzie, but I'd rate her way higher than you did for this on the merits of her E being useful for map tracking and long-range R being useful for contributing to far away fights.

There is definitely a more niche/advanced scenario, but it still operates on the same fundamental. First, ask if you can even defend their push if you recall. If the answer is no, then you know to keep split pushing. If you can defend, then ask if they will take more than what you'll take if you keep splitting. For example, if you continue splitting would take 1 tower, but they'd take 1 tower and 1 inhibitor, and you know you can prevent that if you recall, well then recall. The vast majority of the time though split pushing will be the correct decision.

actually i tried following the video and what you are telling happened to me in the last games. I just got flamed for no reason xd. I told the team that is stupid making tf for nothing and it's not worth die meanwhile i could take a tower instead. then flamed me xd i got sick of this game, really

@skillcapped I've never seen this kind of adc video, thank you so much for this

Wow this Video was so god damn good i jumped from Silver 2 to Platinum 2 thanks

I like this strat. Although, it doesn't fix the issue that if our team is losing so hard that there's never any pressure anywhere on the map, there's nothing you can do safely. As is so common in low elo.

It also doesnt account for if the other ADC has the same strat. 17-20 mins in both ADC's are farming trying to split push at bot lane, neither have left the lane except to roam for kills.

It’s not only F for Flash for me, but that it also makes more sense to have Smite or the other summoner spells closer to the rest of my abilities that I use more frequently. They’re all close together while Flash is the farthest away cause it’s different and i don’t have it as often.

I'm sorry but I do have to point this out. The decision not to group after baron is so terribly bad it almost invalidates the whole video by itself. They were doing what they were supposed to after a baron kill, and the decision not to group and have your team dying when it was an easy win (you were already stronger than everyone else) and losing the baron buff for a couple of waves that achieved nothing is baffling. For some reason the enemy team decides to die 1 by 1 after that fight and that alone decided their fate, not the split pushing decision. The irony of it is when you ask "what would tryndamere do?" he is actually on the teamfight. At most, he should be pushing, not you. 13:15

followed this and got a dub thanks. hopefully i can keep it consistent. i was just playin norms but i was just silver against a plat botlane and won so confidence boost

For anyone wondering how good this works - been doing this since mid s4 when i started to main adc after playing toplaner - it just went naturally to try to push out safe lanes for more gold and just hope your team doesnt throw

Love the guide!! But I'd argue for Jinx to be one tier higher. If she can actually take a tower while she's splitting she has insane potential to take following waves and towers, and she gets a huge boost to her attack and move speed on takedown.

TBF in low elo it's both correct and incorrect to blame the support. Correct in that the majority of low elo supports jerk off the whole game and don't attempt to do anything proactive or productive. Incorrect in that you are doing a lot wrong as an ADC in low elo in your positioning, farming, laning skill, knowing when to recall, map awareness and where the enemy jungler is likely to path next.

For those questioning the legitimacy of this concept, I am a Season 11 Vayne Main that climbed up to Masters 300ish LP using this strategy myself. Methodology works, but as explained in the video, it takes both good macro and precise map awareness to pull it off. Also no missing a single minion or cannons. You would typically use this strat when you have a bad lane/bad support. Back in Season 11, you could continue pushing the wave even if someone were to send someone to defend if you were both mechanically and physically strong enough to outplay and kill the defender. Not every game you should perma-split push even after you come back though. Once you reach your power-spike as Vayne, most times back in Season 11 it was more optimal for me to have to group and solo carry teamfights. This also requires good mechanics and can make things dicey, but it's converting from making 100% guaranteed plays/0% fail to making 70% guaranteed/30% fail plays. Even if you reached your power-spike but your damage is still meaningless, then you go back to split-pushing, so be flexible/adaptable to what's happening in your games! Playing again after quitting for 2 years today, I've noticed that it's harder to kill the defender and it would be more optimal to play the safer route and take enemy camps or rotate into fights/picks instead. Happy climbing!

THIS HELPED ME A LOT THANIKS

If anything they would want to continue being a side lane monster because champions like Riven excel in the 1v1. Riven is a decent team fighter as well but why would you risk a team fight when you could play side and get further ahead drawing pressure or straight up turret diving and winning the 1v1. Your example is an oxymoron because a fed riven will want to split push and dominate in the 1v1 trying to draw more people to answer her while her team pressures in other lanes. Let's play devil's advocate though and say she groups. If you are behind as an ADC her autos will already do multiple times the amount of dmg 1 of yours does. A riven with Gore + Black Cleaver + DD will do infinitely more dmg than an ADC who only has galeforce and a zeal + T2 boots.

FINALLY A GOOD ADC GUIDE. Again, credit where it's due. THIS IS WHAT MAKES ADC'S CLIMB FROM BEHIND. Stop flaming your adc's for split pushing. Maybe reconsider playing aram, or at least queue up for that mode instead if you'd rather turn your brain off and take random 4v5's.

B-But, how am I going to stay bronze ?

this explains a little why as a top laner going into adc, i feel pretty comfortable, also most bot laners play SUPER passive compared to top laners, they don't push counter picks or mechanical advantages to hard, so it's really easy to "lose gracefully" as they say and let yourself get carried.

so I am normally a support main, got stuck in adc role with a pretty terrible supp who wanted me to shove the wave all game. mid game and beyond, i was following this guide to the letter in spite of my team yelling at me all game and me explaining what i was doing whenever i died. Suffice to say, the enemy team made some very poor calls and we won the game decisively after one teamfight over baron buff.

So what about the impact to your teams jungler? by looking at the time stamps it looked like you stole 5+ friendly jungle camps pre 20 min and that CS cant be replaced by lane minions due to monster hunter. In one of the tabs you showed later it looked like the jungler on your team was way under leveled and thousands of gold behind. I get trying to solo carry, but I feel like this strat is toxic as it just forces your jungle to be underleveled and super weak because the plan is to take all his camps?

I'm curious too but I guess it depends on what champion is the JGler playing, if it's a tank or whatever ADC should be excused to take the camps as they scale way harder and have much higher chance of carrying later on but if it's someone like Kindred then I don't know honestly.

Me: We are not a jinx adc. We are tryndamere. What should we do. Also me: flash's into center of team as dropping e and hitting R then proceeds to watch grey screen confused.

Also when your teammates in low elo see you split push and take jungle camps as an adc, they are going to spam ping question marks on you and start freaking out. A lot of the macro stuff that high elo players use just simply doesn’t work in low elo, however the “what would tryndamere do” is very helpful to me 👌🏼

THANKS ALOT MA MAN IT WORKED FOR ME SURE TOOK A WHILE BUT ITS GREAT

All Melee champs want to be in melee range so spacing isnt as important. All Mages have hard crowd control or a tool to help them escape and they can mostly oneshot their opponent. Adc's are the only champs without on demand hard crowd control or self peel. So as an ADC kiting and Spacing are really important. But these two are really hard to learn so most ADC's end up in melee range and loose automaticly.

Samira has defensive utility and a dash that resets, ezreal has Range and a blink and caitlyn has crowd control, a short dash and range. All of the popular Adc's are either safe to use or have the damage to oneshot enemies before the enemies one shot them. Jinx is another popular ADC and one of the only redeeming qualities of Jinx is that even tho her traps take a sec to activate they interrup dashes keeping her safe from all enemies that rely on a single dash to gap close like kha rengar etc. But even then its not great as she has to have pre-existing knowledge of the enemies position to stop them.

This comment is highly suspicious as a split pushing Jinx main, but I'll trust it

If you are behind and you are getting all jungle resource, you are also putting you JG behind. Don't do this unless you JG is doing something else in the other side of the map.

I am glad that he said if his team is ahead just group. If you don't, most likely than not, they will try to push their advantage in a 4v5 fail get frustrated or worse and continue doing it even after being behind.

Think your jungler hates you

Well, what do you do if you are the varus? Varus isn't even on the tier list. I play varus and usually get leads in lane in Plat. Half of the time we somehow manage to throw the game

In low elo this wont always work because if you take jungle camp and if you dont group there is a big chance that your team start to troll or flame. One game I did take the golems and the jungler was mad and started to take bot lane cs. This happen very often. One last example when I solo pushed bot lane as adc and the enemy bot lane was mid killed my mid laner, and he was so mad that he decide to follow me all game long until we lose. This technique might work in gold and platinum but below this, people's mental are too weak.

there's one thing that this guide haven't mention yet, is that in low elo when ur teamate realize ur the strongest member on the team they tend to brainlessly group with u. So try to tell them ur plan when u split. And if they don't listen then ur screw.

This is great advice until I get spam pinged and reported for not helping in the guaranteed death team fight

Ok got it so when your behind just fuck over your jungler and also put them behind. Great video !!

Super nice advise i can just say split pushing wins alot of more games i do see alot of enemy teams going after me alone with like 2-3 ppl when im not more an adc and i got a worst suppourt like i get almost real often. they do mistakes like playing to risky on low health or not getting quicker new upgrades when i got my core parts my build is finished and i get alot of kills for free

Best content I’ve seen! Skill Capped is an excellence!

And this is what never happens, because support is with you all the time keep dying and denying solo XP OR the enemy team collapse at you in 1v4 and you die. OR top lane/jngl or somebody else is AFK. So on paper it sounds very good but never happens....

I love it... if this isn't proof enough that the ranked ladder is broken idk what is. Basically the advice here is to play ADC incorrectly on purpose because playing it correctly in low elo will lead to more losses. So, is the ranked ladder really a ladder if lower ranks supposedly teach you incorrect lessons? Also, this might imply that some low rank ADC's who play correctly (but incorrectly for their rank) could perform better if they were placed in a higher elo where their affinity for objective based teamfights might be more valued.

The issue I find with splitting is if you do get caught outs its nearly impossible as an adc to 1v2 or even 1v1 most times

I hate how this game is just becoming “Don’t act like a team, just use your team as decoys because that’s all they’re good for.” And the most frustrating part is that it works. I miss this being a team game.

Wow amazing info ty

The amount of split push I have been doing before I even saw this video has given me tons of come backs and free wins and split pushing as Zeri gives me extra time because I can escape through the wall

This is really irrelevant if you consider its impossible to get a low elo team NOT to fight at any given time. They are fighting with or without you. You could literally be hitting the nexus and still get flamed for not showing up to a full teamfight over the skuttlebug that died 2 minutes ago.

Amazing guide. I feel almost unbeatable botlane , given my support starts roaming. But I can always be toxic to make my supp leave bot 10/10 , already made 2 division tiers with that strat in 2 days with a 80% winrate

I must say thank you so much is work,not in lol pc but on wild rift to

You can tell high elo people don't spend enough time in low ELO. 50% of the games you ignore a team fight that you are near like pushing bot while they are fighting dragon will result in a teammate flaming or inting and you lose the game 4v5.

In the tier list, you forgot to mention Varus unless I’m blind. Where would he be put on the list? He can clear waves pretty fast with his Q and passive, his E and ult are solid peel options, and again with his passive giving him extra Attack Speed every time he kills an enemy (champion, minion, monster, and I believe turrets but not sure about that one).

i did this with sivir. i didn’t know this strategy was a thing so i just thought sivir and static shiv was good. i literal afk shove and somehow went from hardstuck s2 for many years to hitting gold 4 for the first time ever. i’m pretty amazed

First vid i saw in skill cap before youtube

This video is my instinct whenever I play ezreal, as triforce plus his passive make taking towers so quick. I was such a pain on the side one clash when I kept split pushing and the kayn kept chasing me

this is super helpful

It highly depends which adc we're playing behind. Vayne, tristana and twitch are good for side post lame phase.

i started doing this non consiously and i climbed like 9 ranks doing it and now im seeing this video seeing im doing everything right, lifes good

When I was a adc in bronze I had it very difficult even though I really like adc and now all the match ups, ultimately it’s hard to carry in lower tier just because most adc roles requires you to patiently farm and get items, most players in low tier play very aggressive, positioning is bad, or support just goes ham on a full wave while I’m trying to farm. I switch to jungle, easy influence on the map, getting dragon before the ten minute mark easy to gank they rarely ward some of my games I don’t carry a lens, when I first head back. I climbed up to gold easily. For me as a jungler I created a tempo on the map, when you get dragon early your power spike for all team is really nice . Plus in low tier they don’t know how to smite, I saw some people in silver smiting dragon at the beginning of the fight, rather smiting it at the damage of smite

That's a incredibly complex way to 1. flame your mates (or support atleast) and 2. explain that when you're behind as a carry you shouldn't fight but rather look for free recourses so you can match the enemy's carry
