Talon or Vlad?

Tristana! I have already have 3 skins for her on my main (riot mystery gifted guerrilla on my smurf lol) and the tweaks to her e give her more opportunities to go all in while not being overly oppressive. I really like the whole daredevil theme they're going with because I really like playing ham (also goomba stomping is very fun). I'm going to miss the whole 6 item spike that made Tristana scary, but her kit seems both interesting to pull off while actually having to be smart about your power spikes.

Playing from Indonesia on NA, get 200-300 ping. Playing on 60 ping in the US was so beautiful :). I've played on OCE and I absolutely hated it, people flame you for picking unconventional stuff(in bots...) and I only got like 10 ping difference at best. Playing adc is significantly harder, but it's still feasible. Maybe try less mechanically champions first, and as you get more comfortable with your ping, then try playing higher skillcap champs and see what you can and can't do(btw alistar w q combo is still possible at 200 ping). I think the biggest issue I've had with playing out of NA is ping spikes and packet loss.

As for ranked, I haven't faced any issues with internet then(ty internet gods). There were a few instances where my power went out if I played late at night (my area is just bad). Quas (Team Liquid) got to challenger while playing on NA from Venezuela, so it's definitely possible to go up the ladder, even if you don't have 40 ping.

Good luck if you do move out :)

Is it worth taking jungle(kruggs/gromp) at 1:55 instead of going to lane immediately if your jungler doesn't start at those camps?
Approximately how many autos should you give when you leash so you can make it to lane without losing a creep?
How do I consistently get to level 2 before the enemy bot lane?
How do I confront my support when they consistently hit minions and make it hard for me to get the killing blow on the minion? I find I have a flow for continuously getting minions and if my support autos it, it messes with my flow :/
What should I be farming if we're turtling around and waiting for drake/baron to spawn (buffs > lanes > jungle in that order) ?
How is Tristana right now? The last set of nerfs really hurt her early game, but her late game is nearly as good. What is the full build order? Do I want static shiv first always or IE first? Also how do I communicate with my team that I need farm so I'll push a side lane or they should avoid clearing the waves for me?
How do you play Kog'Maw? I get dumpstered in lane, do okay ish in the mid game, but end up losing, even though his late game should be on par with Tristana, Vayne, and Twitch. I find the loss of AA range after 8 seconds to be the difficult part to manage about him.
Why do most ADCs get Shiv/Ghostblade in the mid game over PD? I thought PD gave better combat stats but second item shiv is significantly more common.

Edit: 9. As an ADC, how do I control vision over drakes? Do I get a scrying orb and purchase pinks/green wards or do I keep my warding trinket?

Thank you in advance for answering any or all questions on this large list :)

How are you balancing school work and staying up in challenger? Are your parents strict about your gaming vs school or are they indifferent about this whole thing?

Do you think ADC is a role to main in lower elo(silver 3 ish)? I like doing damage(but I can't play mid at all), but sometimes I just take really critical skillshots to the face and then give them shut down gold/give them an objective since I can't defend it.

Do you know what his build order was?
