How to carry your team?

[quote=Forgottenduty][quote=A Chubby Baby] I like to play Riven when I want to carry. [/quote] I've tried [[Riven]] a lot but somehow I dont feel able to dish out enough damage as I could in S3 and I get blownnn :/[/quote]

[quote=Forgottenduty][quote=sirell] [quote=ShortyHUN] Being pro and copying pro players gameplay is 2 different things [/quote] Of course, but to say 'not to copy pro players' is just outright wrong. As long as you understand why they do what they do, there is absolutely nothing wrong with copying pro players. [/quote] Pros usualy have awesome mechanics and reflexes, but sometimes I've noticed some slight mistakes on masteries and stuff, not anything major. I mostly try to find out how to carry with [[Vayne]], cuz I was just amazed on how Doublelift was playing with her. And I see him bying [[Bloodthirster]] mostly instead of Botrk and I am not sure which one is best yet. Lot to learn still.[/quote]

[quote=Forgottenduty][quote=DisturbedFox] Make calls, be friendly to these idiots, be good. Doesn't really matter which champion you are playing as long as you know what you are doing. [/quote] Sadly, bad players won't listen to calls anyway even if you ping the retreat button for like x10 times..:( And usualy this is why I avoid playing as a support as well because you can't lead that well compaired to picks like Voli or Heca(although [[Alistar]] and [[Thresh]] can fairly well at it).[/quote]

[quote=Satella][quote=Forgottenduty] I've tried [[Riven]] a lot but somehow I dont feel able to dish out enough damage as I could in S3 and I get blownnn :/ [/quote] This depends on how farmed you are. Riven should have nearly perfect CS in lane unless you're 1v2 or playing against [[Teemo]]/[[Kennen]].[/quote]

[/quote] Of course, like I said, if you understand the choices made, then copying pros is not a problem. If you also understand that they've made a mistake, then you won't copy it. [[Bloodthirster]] when you're ahead, [[Blade of the ruined King]] when you're even or behind. [[Bloodthirster]] will give you a quicker burst of damage to keep snowballing whilst ahead and [[blade of the ruined king]] will give you more sustained damage to let you trade more evenly. Although, rushing [[blade of the ruined king]] isn't a bad choice either, depending on situation.[/quote]

[quote=Scott Azrael]I think the main thing about copying pros is that not everything pros play is a good thing to copy. They are pros for a reason and can play champs/comps/items builds that most people can't because they know how this game works. Sometimes, they just play something to try it out. I think the main thing is, don't just try to play the champs or make the plays the pros do. Learn from what they do and why they do it, but just because Voyboy plays [[Fizz]] top means you should too. Can you learn how he played it and then practice it and play it, sure. I think the biggest problem is that everyone wants to copy what a pro without practicing it.[/quote]
