Hello, currently in bronze and play support quite a lot but I find it hard to properly judge when to gank.
ADCs will often flame you for ganking as well so it’s hard to judge if in doing a bad call or if the adc is just an idiot.
Currently, I play Nautilus, Leona, Blitz and some Bard and usually try to gank when botlane is gone or mid is pushed up a lot.
You need to measure your opportunity cost. If you leave to go for a gank and your ADC has just returned to lane, you will leave them in a 2v1 for 2 minutes. If you can desync your resets and your ADC can put the wave in a good spot before you leave it’s not as bad, but leaving the ADC alone just opens you up to get punished for leaving, making your attempt at q gank a neutral or negative play with no positive outcome. Typically getting gold and XP on your ADC is more important than anything you could have gained from the gank since you can get dragon by making pressure bot.
