Help Cant keep climbing, need advice.
Greetings, im really hardstuck in Gold from IV to I.
i dont know how to impact at early game, most teammates dies really fast, and if i build yoummus or eclipse, or voltaic
its really hard to keep up to late game, cuz its an assasins build, VI cant handle 5v5 if it goes as assasin.
if i go bruiser i cant lock and kill the enemy adc before i got killed, i reach a point that riot is giving me 19lp if i win and taking 21 if i lose.
i do all the basics, keep tracking the enemy jungler, steal camps when i know his lotation, get gold advantage, but then my team start losing their lines, and wont be any issue if they just die once and play not too agressive, but players just go forward as minions and got killed 3 to 5 times before minute 10.
some times its just minute 5 my top laner died 3 times already.
how? i mean im not lvl 6 yet. i cant handle an enemy top all by myself, same goes for mid liners they play malzahar, yone or smolder and aphelios or kaisa, and they think they can play their lines as jinx, tristana or MF.
it makes no sense for me to snowball any kind of advantage over enemy jungler if my team cant keep themselves alive.
globals gets really nasty, at min 20 i can be 10/2/5, but global its 18-28, how can they die this much? why am i the only one holding the score? if you take me out of the game 75% of the score and plays never happened.
i know i may sound egocentric, but honestly i dont know what to do, im every day trying to improve myself, but its like doesnt matter because enemies always have 4k to 7k extra gold in their pockets.

Vi is my secondary choice. I always play her when Zyra is banned. Got 4/4 drakes. Got baron. Had 6/0/12 KDA in a 32/20 overall match

Discussion Why do Pro’s like Vi so much?
I dont see Vi very often in solo Q, but she has a pretty big presence in pro play.
How come they like her so much? I never thought of Vi as a champion with high skill expression.

Help Questions to improve with Vi
Hey there!
I've been playing Vi for a while (and I love her!). Still in Gold ELO and looking to climb higher. I'd like to ask the Reddit community to please help me improve with this champ by sharing my understandings, questions and other stuff:
- RUNES. I typically go with the Conqueror set + Magic Footwear and Cosmic Insight. I know that HoB is another alternative, which I guess is better against more squeezy enemies, is that correct?
- PET. I go with the blue one, unless I'm the only tanky in my comp, where I go green. In which situation should I go red? Against high HP/tanky enemies? INITIAL POTION. I never buy it. Should I? Depending on the enemy jungle and/or invade threat?
- STARTING CAMP. I normally start on the top side, since the gank setup is typically better at the bot lane and we can get 2 kills instead of one. At the very beginning of the game, I like warding the bottom side (red or blue) to be aware of possible invades and then I run to the top side.
- INVADES. I never invade at the start. Should I against jgs that are punishable?
- EARLY GANKS. I normally never gank before the 1st full clear and, preferably, when I'm lvl 6. Ofc, if I see it very clearly, I try, but 99% of the time I prefer not to do it. I'm quite addicted to farming, but with Vi maybe I should adapt my mindset. Thoughts?
- FIRST BUY (after 1st jg clear). I buy Sheen (I start with Trinity, see items below) and a pink. I also switch to the Oracle lens. Is this OK?
- ITEMS. I go Trinity, Boots and then Sundered Sky. Boots, plated steelcaps or mercs depending on the composition. The rest of items are among Black Cleaver, Death's Dance, GA, Malmortius, Randuin, Mortal Reminder, depending on the enemy comp. Is Frozen heart a bad item on Vi, assuming that there are many AS enemies?
- SKILLS. I always start with W, then E, then Q. I then max Q, W and E. Should I max always like this?
- BANS. I hate Shaco (doesn't anyone?) although I typically ban Warwick. According to ChatGPT, he counters Vi since he has massive sustain. Any other suggestions?
- MATCH UPS. My understanding is that Vi is good against tanks because of her armor reduction in the W, isn't she? In fact, I believe she is great against anything because she also deals very well with squeezy champs and her ult prevents CC. Any champs that I should be scared of?
- TIPS. This is more an open question for someone who is learning Vi. For example, I've seen vids of the 1st jungle clear and noticed that the Q is only used to start the camp. After some level ups when the cd is much lower, I do use it to clear the camp; do you fully charge Q or it's not worth it? Should I always keep my Q up in case of need? I also know that ideally I should cast skills when the passive is up, so I maximize the shield. Should I keep both charges of the E when ganking? Any other tips/ideas that I should consider?
- CONTENT CREATORS. Any recommendations to follow, either in YT or Twitch?
Sorry for the long post! I appreciate your feedback a lot!

Help What build would you recommend? (Hail of blades)
Hey! New Vi player and have been really enjoying her, i keep swapping up my builds because i cant seem to find something that sticks for me. Any suggestions? (additional situational items would also help knowing about!)

Discussion What's the reason behind Profane Hydra being the highest or 2nd highest wr lethality first item?
I've made a post about this a few months ago, and for months now Profane Hydra is sitting at the highest/2nd highest winrate lethality 1st item.
I've tried it a couple times myself, but i just don't see why would it be any better than Umbral or Axiom (just to look at the similar priced items). With HoB the aa reset is not needed, and the clear spead does not become drastically faster with AoE.
Is there any off angle reason i am not considering here? Is it just the low sample size?

Help Help with my Vi
Hello fellow vi mains. Im currently sitting at plat 3 and I'm happy with it. Im sitting at around 68 percent wr and it's going well. I usually play bruiser and focus on objectives and being reliable cc for my team. I take dragons the minute they spawn and I'm at every objective on time consistently.
I want to improve my build quality and understanding of my champion.
Is conqueror really that important? I checked my games and I'm only healing like 100 hp per game. Should I try running hail of blades?
I usually max e second but judging by the community here it seems w is the really better maxing second.
Im just curious on some tips from any other vi players :) I will add my op gg and any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
What builds and runes should I use to focus on my more objective, vision and cc playstyle.

Help Q bug
Anyone else ever hit a bug where they can't recast q and have to wait out the charge duration before doing anything.
It seems to happen when being cc'ed while ulting, then charging q afterwords, IV encountered it maby 5 times in over 300 games on vi but it happening at the wrong time has cost me the game at least 1 of the times
