To Stack or not to Stack

Hello! I have been experementing with different held items and was wondering peoples opinion on stacking. I know that the numbers for stacking are better, but you also tend to get into unfavorable situations when trying to gain early stacks. I am thinking to trying to use alternatives to staking like accel bracer on leafeon instead of attack weight so I dont throw myself at the enemy's goal and get myself KOd and such. But I'm pretty new, so I wanted to know other peoples opinion on the subject.

    I think Stacking is good on anyone that is a carry. Even lane greninja players in high elo, will often go double stacking attack (bracer/weight) because it helps their all-in playstyle, immensely.

    You typically just take other items on pokemon that dont NEED to stack; cinderace, doesn't really need to stack to do his job. Greninja, he actually likes stacking bc his job is really easy to counter, he's a squishy auto attacker. Just think of the amount of cc moves that can stop that. Whereas, if you stack on Gren, your burst and all in potential is much higher.

    As far as "constantly dying in the enemy base" 99% if not all things in a moba, are down to a science; and really just keep playing, keep reading the map to get when the %'s of stacking is much better. Sometimes, you just need to stack later in the game.

    Stacking is essentially more or less = to BONUS EXP. Why do I say this? It's because you get stats that you would normally get from leveling. You won't get tankier with AW, but you will get a level or 2 worth of damage. So in general, keep this last part in mind at ALL TIMES. If stacking is just more EXP, don't die to stack, when you could've just farmed. Huge point there
