Views: 1286 Facechecking Baron
|
If you think the other team is doing dragon or baron, do not face check it to find out, especially if you are by yourself.
In fact don't even do it if you have two or three or four people with you, unless you happen to all be super fed and you can reasonably expect to win a 4v5 or perhaps a 5v5 if you count the damage from Baron or Dragon.
If you feel that you must contest the Dragon or the Baron send in a tank first so if they turn on you the damage and CC from the other team goes where it should, on a champion that can take it.
If your whole team is not with you and your team is losing then
*I still find this an iffy choice as you don't actually know where the enemy team is, but extra gold, experience, and taking Red or Blue buff off the map so the enemy can't take it might be worth it. Preferably take a buddy such as your support so they can get some wards down, while watching your back, or speeding up taking the camps.
If your whole team is with you and you are even with the other team.
If your whole team is with you and you are ahead.
Obviously the above aren't comprehensive action plans. You have to ask yourself what is the enemy team going to do next. Usually after a team takes Baron they are going to be showing up at a tower or your base to siege it with the Baron buff. So, get ready for a siege.
Clearing minion waves is doing something useful. Getting wards down outside of your base is useful. Getting yourself killed trying to find out if the enemy team is doing Baron or Dragon is not useful. It is in fact the opposite of useful, as you are leaving your team a person down for the duration of your death timer.

If your whole team is not with you and your team is losing then
- clear your lanes
- finish of any low health turrets
- get wards down
- clear the neutral jungle creeps on the opposite side of the map from where you think the enemy team is located.*

If your whole team is with you and you are even with the other team.
- Set your lanes up to push so the enemy team will have to send someone to deal with them.
- Make a play for another objective such a tower or Dragon or Baron
- Get wards down
If your whole team is with you and you are ahead.
- Is your team better at team fighting?
- If yes, the consider contesting for the objective.
- If no, then pressure another objective as described in the list above.
