How do you carry so well?

Dominate lane, and take losing mid and bot and make them both winning.

We had twice the kills. Nasus took our inhib during an ace where we then secured tower and baron.

Teammates didn't know how to take towers/objectives, and LB had absolute downs. first time LB, basically we had no ability power. Her only kills were from me feeding her kills when we catch them out.


My question, how do you carry like you do? I can't take objectives when teammates are like "we won that 3v3? nigga i need to back, i have like 600 gold."

You could have forced objectives, dived.

They mostly play carry roles such as ADC/APC

Easier to take towers etc.

I did most of the tanking under towers. I can't take a tower alone, riven is pretty low tier at taking towers under pressure.

Also, most boosters that I know play mid/top.

Normals dont count, ranked is different.

I'm aware, but in what ways?
 
people play tryhard in ranked.

Also people at lower elo will listen to you if you're OTT fed, if you're playing averagely then they will continue to assume they're better than you. Honestly when I do it I /muteall and do my own thing, once I get going people start listening to me.

I just ping stuff and run towards it when it's obvious that's what we should be doing and most times they follow, but also when you have scores like yours you should be taking your own objectives with ease and showing up when you're needed. If they don't listen to you then play the teamfight out, win it, then do your own thing, Either way you have a pretty big say in what goes on and HOW it goes on.

Also I play a champ that can generally dump on a person instantly when really fed. Get a sweeper and you are a fed LB, Ahri, Kayle, Gragas, Ziggs, Riven, Lee(top), Veigar, Draven, Zed, Talon and you can instantly make it a 4v5, which even the shittiest of shitters know that you can push or take objectives after.

Note that some of these champs are EXTREMELY unforgiving, in that if you fuck up you can die really easily. Generally the more unforgiving the champ is, the easier it is to actually fuck people if you know what you are doing.

Forgot Kha6

Also constantly rotate. If you can't take an objective here and they have good waveclear, go to a different objective. People are shitty and until plat, people dont even react properly from you just moving from one lane to the other. Also I split push a lot because that way I can tell people to rotate... and there will actually be a minion wave for you to use! People think that they can blindly seige when they don't have a team that can seige, then they sit there and dive/get aced or do nothing because the minion waves are pushing in the opposite direction.

More freelo tips. Switch to sweeper after laning ends and buy wards.

Fucking time objectives. I'm the only one who does it in every game I boost. Literally I don't know why people don't do it methodically. It is literally free elo to just add 5-7 mins to objectives. I'd do flashes but junglers and teammates don't actually give a fuck so I just remember them.

I found this to be the same for me, it's very important to secure objectives, and know when they can come back. What's the point of taking first dragon, and losing all the others?

Nightblue3 stresses out this point so much, because of the significance that it can bring toward a game. Simply reminding your team when dragon spawns can lead to a free second, third, etc dragon..also prevents your buffs from being stolen. I suggest that everyone in lower elo watch his stream, he does a good job at leaving out basic points about the game, as it goes for him.
 
I time every single buff in the game i've had vision on and estimate the others based on jungle route, it's pretty easy.

Can confirm it helps insanely, deny every buff in the game apart from initial blue buff and you've got a massive advantage there.
 
I find that making calls is the best way to carry games (assuming you're playing well). If you're doing extremely well and make successful calls throughout the game, even the worst teammates will usually listen and follow along.

You can try different tactics such as split pushing as well if you're significantly ahead of everyone else as it detracts attention from the rest of your team.

Keep morale up.

Play flawlessly. Do not make any mistakes. Yes, you can be 20 kills up and make mistakes that lose you the game.

Heavy objective control. (Splitpushing if appropriate)

Help/ get other lanes fed. If you don't want your teammates to feed don't even give them a chance to feed.

Boss your team around. Make good calls.

A lot of this takes a lot of practice and game knowledge to get down. Hell, I still make a lot of stupid mistakes/ play inconsistently which is what separated someone like my self who plays in low diamond from a lot of the d1s on the forum.
 
3 easy steps to gaining elo:

1. Play Nasus
2. Get to lategame
3. Freelo
 
>getting to late game in bronze without the game being decided in 1st 10 minutes.

When I boost I will only ever play 1 late game champion which is ryze, merely because with teleport it's a free double kill at like level 3 onwards.

Nasus sounds like a horrible idea for low elo, wouldn't feel like playing it my self lol.
 
Nobody knows how to stop a 30min-500stack nasus in bronze. Run tp/ghost, make plays

30 min game >> bronze. Play assassins, 15 min games in bronze/silver. Boosting is all about time efficiency. Screw a 30min bronze game.

This is so inaccurate lol..
Why would you try to get to lategame when basicly as a booster you can finish games pre-surrender time.

Play something that is strong in the early-mid game, that could make you snowball and carry 4 of the worse allies.

Nasus is so easy to beat in lane anyway.
