I`ve been playing for about 2 years now.I have experience,and can play everything but i like to go ap/ad carry.In my early game i don`t have much problems,I manage to do good in my lane and work well with my support.But when we start to group or when a fight near happens near dragon/baron thats where i have some problems...
I can`t focus the right person,can`t reach their adc,and I always lack in positioning the right way.So then I attack the closest threat but can`t do much and when I realise that I come a bit closer in a teamfight and often die without any reason.This has been happening to me lately and it is really annoying.So if you guys have any tips/tricks/guides I would be thankful.
Thank You..! :)

If you play ADC, don't be afraid to focus their bruiser.
If focussing their bruiser means you will survive, then you should just do this.
Of course, when the enemy ADC is in reach, just kill him instead ;D

If you play AP, ask yourself: Am I a sustained AP caster or a bursting AP caster?
The big difference is that a sustained caster has short CDS with less damage and burst AP casters have long CDS with a lot of damage :P

If you are a burst AP caster, be careful with what you cast, and only use your full combo on the enemy carries, because wasting it on a bruiser is probably a waste :P

If you are a sustained caster, then don't be afraid to focus their bruiser, since your spells will be up in no time anyway :D

Hope this helped ;D
Change is gooooood

Like Froggen always says, focus the closest ones. If you are playing AP burst like Malzahar burst one their carries and assist your team. It is no biggie :D

Personally it has been my experience as a adc/apc is all about positioning, the tank the jungler and the off tank you all be in the front line protecting you yet at the same time trying to get to their apc,adc. while you and the apc and support dmg/cc anything and everything that gets too close to you.as i said its all about positioning. if you find that their bruisers/tanks are with you then your teammates aren't protecting you properly or your out of position.

If you are ADC just kill whoever is causing you the most problem/whoever is most near you
As an assassin just jump to a squishy, preferably their adc or apc
I havent played APC seriously in a long time so im not really sure but I think try to get the enemy carries also

AP teamfight roles can vary a lot. Other than assassins, who basically always are supposed to get in, murder a squishy, and get out, I don't think we can even generalize what AP carries are supposed to do in teamfights by specific champion type. For example, while both Morgana and Lux are utility mages, they aren't necessarily supposed to do the same thing in teamfights. So could you tell us exactly which AP carries you're playing?

Within teamfights its all about positioning. Assassains are there to make your job as an AP and AD carry all that much harder by posessing quick often instant gap closers to inflict serious damage to your small health pool. As the AD carry you want to position yourself out of range of the opposing bruiser, for it is their job to disrupt your damage.

Ask yourself the questions... quickly:
1) Do they have any Hard cc up (Let your tanks take it- you shouldnt initiate!)
2) Can I safely (Within reason) their ad or ap carry?
3) Do I have a peel? (ie. hard cc support such as Taric or Janna. This will help in preventing the enemy bruiser from engaging upon you.
4) Has anyone been separated from the team- Apart from the tank, these are often easy targets as your team can quickly surround them and make it a 4v5.

Dont dive into the middle of the fight. Act as if you are kiting, skirting around the battlefield avoiding the AOE's to reach their squishies. Try to avoid being separated from your team as that usually a death sentence.

As an AP carry, you generally rely on combo's, chaining spells together in other words. This is almost always directed at the enemy squishy,as on any other type of champ it is often wasted. If you have any questions feel free to Pm me.
