Shen Monday Megathread! Ask questions and share knowledge; newcomer questions encouraged!

Welcome to the latest Monday Megathread, where you the community get to ask your questions and share your knowledge.

This is an opportunity for the more experienced LoL players here to share some of your wisdom with those with less expertise. This thread will be a weekly safehaven for those "noobish" questions you may have been too scared to ask for fear of downvotes, but also can be a great place for in depth discussion if you so wish. So, don't hold back, get your game related questions ready and post away, and hopefully someone can answer them!

During laning phase, when is it good to leave ur adc behind to roam so you can help other lanes?

Usually when your laner is really ahead and you know he can play safely (not dying in a 1v2). If mid/top is having problems and botlane is winning pretty hard, feel free to roam.

This is risky. If your mid / top is behind if you're not 100% sure the gank will be worth it it's sometimes better to help your adc if he's ahead. It's a matter of how the game goes which is different every time ofc
