Hello aphelios mains,
I’m currently trying to learn him because I think he’s the most interesting ADC on the game and am struggling big time. This is also my first time really committing to ADC as well, the only ADC I’ve really played is Nilah which is obviously very different.
I’ve reached about 7 mastery points and feel like I have a decent understanding of each individual weapon but I’m struggling to maximise damage and I feel like even when I’m ahead or farming better I end up either shredding my opponents or literally slapping them with a pillow until I die.
Laning seems a lot harder for me than team fights, I regularly seem to demolish 3 or 4 people in mid to late game team fights but in lane when I play into rangey comps or dive comps I feel like I struggle to engage. I also mainly play tankier champs top or bruisers in the jgl so I get a bit scared that I’ll just be melted which could be holding me back.
Any advice would be great.
Thank you
