    Taking notes to improve my ganks huehuehuehue

    Great video and explanation of concepts. This outlined a naturally occurring problem of mine that: I often focus too much on dominating lane so that I become very easily gankable. But when I go into the game with the intention of reducing aggression as to not die to ganks, I inherently play too conservatively and miss opportunities. Priming your mindset via threat assessment of the whole enemy comp allows you to approach the game within its nuance.
    This also helps me see much clearer how one can play lane with high pressure whilst not just hyper-inting.

    I'm impressed Curtis. This kind of video I usually find disappointing... but this time the approach you suggest really hits home, for me at least. I tend to be too theoretical and think that if I understand the threat, I'll have the mental stacks to react. But the key part is not the understanding but being intentional about your mental stacks! Very helpful. I was also, I believe, heading in the wrong direction thinking my fundamental mistake was understanding jungle tracking and warding better (not that it is not important ofc).
    This reminds me of a game where I was with my duo and he is a jungler and he was telling me to beware cause the enemy team had a Shaco. After that game, I was thinking going TP instead of ignite vs a team with a Shaco would be very important... but I had not really grasped that the fundamental principle behind this was that it's more than choosing the right summoner spell... it is about allocating mental stacks... here the summoner spell is just a manifestation of where to choose to allocate your resources.

    this guys is absolutely insane at pattern recognition and a great teacher. That was a lot of insanely helpful info for all types of players, including junglers that can better visualize opportunities based on laner behavior according to this theory

    Very important concept for midlaners. Glad your covering this!

  • @StayMad26
    @StayMad26 Před 9 měsíci +9

    Very informative and I realise that me playing qiyana and always having grass for invis and tons of mobility not to mention the ability to 1 shot the jungler if he ganks, has made me super lazy about warding and leaning and looking at the minimap. My threat assessment is also horrible because Im so used to just going invis the moment anything goes sideways😂 Really steep learning curve now playing mages.

  • @Hazy_Fforest
    @Hazy_Fforest Před 7 měsíci +1

    This is going to sound really stupid because in retrospect it seems really obvious, but the biggest eye opener in this video was just you mentioning wether or not I have flash changes the level of threat against me. When I jungle I think about flash timers all the time and I always viewed it from the perspective of "Oh flash is down, easy ganks." But as a mid laner I've never stopped to think "Oh my flash is down, I'm an easy gank." Seems obvious but man that was enlightening for me

    Honestly so many people in whatever lane they are playing, needs to watch this video. As a jungle main i can never comprehend how people can die to ganks when the enemy junglers pathing is extremely obvious. Like i don't even expect laners to track junglers like a pro but if you have a Nunu in enemy team you know she is gonna 3 camp into gank, like just early ward or play safer. Or you know a diana will full clear into a gank, just track where she starts and ward accordingly.
    Some ganks are harder to predict but most people die to ganks that they have no business dying.

    Rushed over to this, but one of my issues is that I can't assess enemy threat very well even in loading screen. Ex. My main is Vex, and I thought I could easily survive a Lillia + Taliyah gank so I started shoving for reset. Then I got absolutely ran over because I used my fear on wave and Lillia finished her scuttle or something and sprinted at me like 480 ms, slowed me, Taliyah gets easy W followup. However I do like the concept of this and I'm sure it does contribute to a majority of my gank deaths

      @@tostupidforname I knew she was there, I had the bush warded and thought I'd just walk back when she came towards me. But that's what I mean I have "poor enemy threat assessment", she gap closed on me with movement speed that I wasn't expecting

  • @JonathanSaxon
    @JonathanSaxon Před 9 měsíci

    Hi I play ADC. I didn't really understand the video. I try to think about 'gankability' by assessing how much cc/mobility damage they have to consider how scary they are. Usually if I get ganked bot lane and I'm too far up I die no matter who is ganking me.

    • @tostupidforname
      @tostupidforname Před 9 měsíci +1

      Then its more about having a good wavestate and getting resets when you are strongside so you rjungler can help if you get ganked

    @Kamishi845 Před 9 měsíci

    This is definitely my biggest weakness as a mid lane player, in that I devote too much energy on trading and laning, but I also feel that I need to do that because my mechanics just aren't quite there if that makes sense? I don't just want to sit a million miles away but actually try to win my lane as well, but I am not a very mechanically gifted person. It requires a lot of focus for me to try to work on simply not missclicking which I do a lot, because I think I have a pretty low mouse accuracy. I've been thinking if I just improve my micro and laning I can feel confident enough to free up some of my mental stack away from trading and wave control and spend it on looking at the minimap instead, but I've played this game for years and I don't think I've improved a lot. What can a seasoned player even do in this situation?
    EDIT
    I want to add that I do adapt to matchups. If I am Syndra and enemy jungler is Nunu, I am either always going to try to freeze or hard shove to avoid being exposed to ganks.

    • @MainHeadz1
      @MainHeadz1 Před 9 měsíci

      Hey there, I can't help you with the mid stuff but I can help you with the mouse accuracy issues because I had that myself.
      I'm a support player and when I looked over my own replays I notice that my clicking near my character and skillshot aiming was really bad and imaccurate. For a month everyday, I would play aimbooster for around 30 minutes and then when everytime I queued league I would consciously try and click close to my champion; when I did that I had much better clicking accuracy and I was able to dodge skillshots better,/hit more skillshots. Hope this helps. Micro can be improved you just have to put the reps in.

    I think my biggest problem at league is discipline, i know the things i do are wrong but i still do them.. is like i can't stop myself not doing wrong things.. ( is like gambling addiction, u know is bad but u still gamble) .
