Okay, I'm going to keep this short because reasons.

I started playing this game a month and 10 days ago and it has taken over my summer. I've played for about 320 hours thus far, reached level 30 in two weeks, and have pretty much played non-stop. Yes, I'm a loser, yes, I have no life, and yes, I'm the saddest individual in the entire smite community. But I'm not good enough. I play mostly adc and seriously looking to improve at this game, since I do play it all ****ing day. If a veteran wants to help or anything my IGN is the same as my Smite name.

I'd watch zapmans or barraccudda's streams. Those are the adc's from the top 2 seeds of NA.

twitch.tv/barraccudda

Zapman also has a slot at smitepro but I don't know the exact times so you'll have to check that out yourself.

Do you know what you need to improve on to get better? (1v1ing, map awareness, teamfights etc)

My tips:
#1 Turn down your sensitivity (unless you already use like 10 sens and 100dpi on your mouse).
I turned my sens down with like 75% and my ADC suddenly went rekt face. Before I turned down my sens ADC was my worst role for sure, now it's my 2nd or 3rd best role :p

#2 learn how to build (don't build as zap man does).
Looked at your profile and seemed like you know how to build.

#3 Map awareness.
Always know what's going on on the map. Be especially aware of support, mid and jungle. Don't overextended unless you know where they are and or have sprint/beads up to escape possible ganks.

#4 positioning.
Just practice where to be in teamfights, arena is great for practicing ;)

some of the most important things for an adc:

1.positioning:
If you get caught out of position you are likely dead.

2. awareness:
This also refers to positioning mostly because if you're being ganked you over extended and the jungler caught you out of position.

3. Last hitting/farming:
you want to reach late game ASAP so you need to be good at last-hitting/better then the other adc

4. knowing your god:
You need to know the play style for the god you play because Xbalanque has a really aggressive play style then Cupid can play more passivly. ( Xbalanque nees his passive stacks fast to be really dangerous.

5. communication and teamwork:
without this you can't come far and you need this sooner because you start with a support. So you need to know when your support wants to poke so he isn't freezing people and you don't throw your poke on it.

How do I improve my aim with basic attacks? I currently use 50 percent sensitivity, should I be training to use with different level?

Turn it down to like 10 ;)

Im guessing you have pretty high sens on your mouse in general (like when you are out of game, and just on the desktop) :P

Like I have a Logitech G500s and I got 350DPI (standard is maybe 900-1000? I really have no clue) and Im using 15 sens in game.

To do a 360 I have to move my mouse about 25cm.

PS while getting used to it you will feel pain, and your wrist will be sore. But it is worth it :P

wtf, 15? I thought higher sensitivity was always better in any skillshot based game.

The lower the better actually (I always had high sens before, then some friends told me to turn it down) :P

Also make sure that you never hold down the attack button. This is a common mistake with people who are newer to adc to just constantly attack but always wait for the line up on your sight and then click to attack. Also in your settings make sure to turn on the ruler because this will not only give you a great tool for aiming but the ruler will also get you more familiar with the feel of distance in the game for when you are casting abilities or vice versa knowing your enemies distance that they can cast at or basic at as well. These two things should help you bring your game up some and I hope it helps :)
