How do you play late game basing on your carries' poor positioning? I'm losing so much games despite having a good lane phase. (solo play)
Currently Plat 2, trying to reach Emerald (and i know Emerald is not high elo).
My problem in recent matches is that it feels like, no matter how my laning phase goes or what my KDA looks like, some laner ends up doing something stupid late-game, and we lose.
My last match, I played Thresh against Malphite, Nocturne, and Zed. Even though my ADC was really strong, there was nothing I could do against a dive from all three of them. In the final fight, Samira was alone in mid and got dove by the three of them; we lost the game despite having had an impeccable laning phase.
Our comp was terrible, Teemo, Talon, Zed, Samira and Thresh. It seems like no matter how well I play in lanephase, i still lose due to comp diff, my laner can't side because he would die all the time, and you just feel powerless. In lane phase, you can roam, you can initiate, but in late game you'll really need to rely on your carries and that's the main problem.
How to deal with that? What separates a high elo support in terms of late game, fighting 4v5, your carries don't have a good positioning. Sometimes i feel that i'm being held back by this role.
