You die 7.6 times per game (Gold average: 6.3). Deaths hand over gold, tempo and objectives. Before walking forward ask: where is the enemy jungler, and do I have vision of this bush? Trade a kill you are not sure of for a safe recall.
You average 4.5 CS per minute as ADC; Gold players average about 5.8. Every 15 CS is roughly a kill worth of gold. Practise last-hitting under tower, shove the wave before recalling, and catch side waves between fights instead of standing in lane doing nothing.
From the fourth game of a session onwards you win 20%, compared with 55% in the first three. Fatigue is invisible from the inside — play in blocks of three and take a real break.
You spend 15% of your games dead. Late deaths cost a minute each; when a fight is lost, back off and defend rather than adding one more death to it.
You typically come out of lane ahead of your opponent. Turn that lead into map pressure: shove, take plates, then move to help another lane while your opponent is stuck.
3.2 solo kills per game — you win 1v1s. Use that threat to draw the enemy jungler to your lane and free up the rest of the map.
Mel: 6 wins in 10 games (60%). When you need LP, this is the pick — climbing is easier on a champion you win with than on a "stronger" one you don't.
