I'm the Coach of EU LCS Team MYM. I'm a former Samsung Ozone/Blue house member, and Diamond Korea server.
This coaching session was requested to be very blunt and honest. Some things said are entirely just my opinion. It is very long but covers a wide array of topics including; ELO Hell, Champion pools, "Why can't I climb", Don't well in games above your elo but failing to climb on your main, 80/20 theory, and more.

LS confirmed AP zed with lichbane and nashors. Lets go into ranked

[@yomamahahalala]

the length is not actually the problem. it feels like sometimes you give too much examples on one point and just stay on it for too long. instead of trying to reducing the length of the video, i would rather you to condense your point so you can cover more point in the same amount of time. that's my only complain. great work. easily the best league educator <3

[@HakuCell]

I found this interesting but very, very dispersive.. I think you could have summed all the key concepts of this video in like 20 minutes

[@WillUnlimited]

Still waiting for the toyz technique :D

[@filmorejohnson]

I can tell good concepts are in your head but the analogies and wording was often redundant and inefficient in this lesson.

webcam next time man...!

I really enjoy the videos and listening to your insight, however I just have to ask. Has anyone ever told you that you contradict yourself sometimes? In some instances you make the point that you shouldn't take things at face value, that you shouldn't be doing things because a certain player says it, and that you shouldn't try to emulate. Then as the video goes on you make the point that sometimes it isn't nessicary to understand the reason and logic as long as you know the answer, and that with enough time and experience applying the answer, reason and logic follows. Do you not see how this is basically saying "Don't do things just because pros say it / Do things just because pros say it until you understand why"

I hope this guy didn't have to pay too much money for this coaching. It was insightful but I would not pay such high prices to listen to long-winded analogies that are repeated many times. The points made in this video can be made in a lot clearer and shorter format. The person getting coached wanted LS to move on from these analogies a few times, this was evident.

"This is i believe my first verbal coaching session" If only he knew how the legend would one day grow.

I love the guy you're coaching, he actually understands what you say, unlike a lot of the others

[@HeadshotZA]

I absolutely love everything you post LS, keep it coming, for the love of life.

[@Chipmonkcheeks53]

This is one of my favourite lessons. I like the audio only approach.

[@PatrickRyanPWR]

Easily one of the best coaching videos available for League of Legends. Thanks a ton Nick!

[@Dauletkereyful]

I would absolutely love to have a conversation and a lesson with you like this, but I am broke so I'm left out with watching these vids. Thank you LS for all the work you've done.

[@reprogrammingmind]

80-20. Pareto Principle

[@SpeC927]

lets me say one thing, i have been watching over this years a lot of instructional videos about league of legends, and i must admit you re by far my absolute favorite coach/teacher i dont even know what to say, thx for all the vids you have made

[@ashleyconnock9384]

i really enjoyed this was pretty informative, but it bugged me at the end when after such a long talk you gave the impression that you wasnt actually sure what top laners he should play.
