#What Am I doing wrong on Carry?

Anyone willing to quickly look over a Sparrow game? I don't feel like I did much wrong on the Macro gameplay side, but I feel like I did not maximize my opportunities for myself and my team to set up kills, or generally what you are suppose to do as a carry.

I am a jungle main, Gold III.

Any help is much appreciated ❤️

main echo
#

first off the build is not it

#

looks like u got hooked a few times by rik

#

youll learn how to bait it and dodge it

#

6.6cs/min is too low

#

need 8 minimum

#

ill watch the game in a bit

stray coyote
#

may I politely ask what was wrong with the build? Vanq first is what many people are doing, and then I went anti-tank to help with the rik who was building armor

#

tainted rounds however was too early considering no one was really building vamp

main echo
#

u dont need to build demo that early

#

should be 4th/5th

#

lightning hawk is just a better option 1st item

#

vanq second

#

my question to you would be qhy are you building anti tank so early when the twin blast is the problem early game

#

not rik

#

vanq second already has a small amount of pen which is fine

#

also why did u go all the way around to ward at the start losing out on farm?

stray coyote
#

my thought process was I was watching crazzyfool the other day and he was saying not enough people build counters items early enough

main echo
#

yeah u need to counter twin

#

not riktor

stray coyote
#

makes sense, was attackign it wrong

#

I thinki was loking up for abuild at the beginning and just took a long route and didnt think

main echo
#

early game twin is your problem, if you get hooked you get hooked, but learning to dodge will help

#

when khai comes to gank, your reaction is really slow

#

as soon as steel charges in you should be right behind him

#

steel backs and you go so far back, mentally this shows rik and twin ur scared to fight

#

should be staying in xp range

#

especially when no one is level 5 yet

#

also practice last hitting

#

5 mins in and ur 10cs down

#

at the same time twin and rik back

#

why did u try shove the lane when its near ur tower?

#

theyre gonna be back before it hits their tower now youre pushed up with feng doing his red side again

#

yeah i think you just went behind and then struggled cos ur last hitting isnt that great

#

you miss on average 2 minions per wave

#

2nd death u shouldve focussed twin, as soon as u dont get a kill back off cos rik knows steel cant really help you

#

do you know what freezing and lane management is @stray coyote

stray coyote
#

I do, however I mainly jungle so i dont practice it a lot

#

sorry, I was in a game

#

I try to practice it whenever i play pvp or nitro

#

do you know how wide XP range is?

main echo
#

about 1.5x auto range

stray coyote
#

oh okay great, that makes sense

main echo
#

Id say the main thing

#

practice last hitting

stray coyote
#

I can certainly get into some games where I can practice just taht

#

how was my positioning overall? Was I opening myself up for ganks more or putting myself in a position (especially with sparrow) to get killed easily?

main echo
#

tbh you looked scared a lot of the time

#

as a sparrow against a rik especially dont stand near walls

stray coyote
#

I was trying to play passive-er because of the rik and i am sparrow so I could see that

#

I am super W heavy as a jungler so I try not to do that with my adc's

#

cause they're squishy and dont have too much mobility

main echo
#

but theres some cases where u need to be agressive

#

twin havibng 0 mana

#

khai is coming

#

etc

stray coyote
#

Thank you again for the tips, you didnt have to help and you did.

#

I'll take these tips and watch some games of pros and myself and see what I can do better!

Playing scared is never ever good when you are learning

#

Just play aggro, test things, shoot stuff, find out where the lines are drawn for beeing to aggro

#

You dont learn stuff from sitting back beeing scared

#

If you die, who cares, find out what you can do different and move on

#

Thats how you become a player that can carry games

#

Need to spend more time on pvp working on it then 😅

so like 15-25 seconds ahead of time get the lane ready for a gank
