20 SETTINGS and HOTKEYS you NEED for SEASON 10

[@skillcapped]

What Setting do you think is the most valuable for climbing? Let us know!

[@ryanrodgers3099]

Quick Cast has been my default since day 1, makes a massive difference when I see my friends play on normal cast or quick cast with indicators. After that, it's definitely disabling chat. Game is much more enjoyable and it really doesn't interfere with communication as much as you'd think.

[@davesanchez3495]

Checking and editing the NVDIA and monitor settings are probably the most useful tips in this video since these can't be found in the in-game settings, so altering them seems unintuitive to me.

[@l2eaper]

I actually go into my persistent settings and make the map 180 for ‘map scale’ I feel even 100 is super small

[@moppitukka3253]

[@jairartis]

Haha I actually knew that first tip. (I tend to mess around with options a lot) Another tip that I was surprised wasn’t in the video; in champ select you can favorite champs by right clicking them and selecting the roles you like to play them in. Doing this means you can favorite off meta champions that won’t usually appear when you select the top/mid/jungle/ADC/Support filter You can filter the champ select to show your favorite champions on the top of the select screen This allows you to cut down on time during champ select and have your champion pool shown outright so you can more adequately choose what champ you may need at a moments notice.

[@Max_Griswald]

I was incredibly surprised that wasn't in the video!

[@3lueoce512]

If only it could be set to start on showing your favourites by default instead of having to manually sort by favourites each and every champ select.

[@jairartis]

Aidan Bath yeah, that’s kinda lame. I usually just spam practice tool and do it in there

[@TaIathar]

The last paragraph is accurate but "favorite off meta champ" is just straight trolling. Nobody climbs playing adc teemo unless they're already challenger level

[@jairartis]

SelectorOfSouls I meant something like Swain mid for example, which is no longer shown when you select mid lane champs because of his importance in support at the moment. Or if you play Fiddle jungle you can actually have him appear because currently he’s only shown in the support category.

[@jonathannguyen4176]

Vortex x as someone who regularly logs in 30-40 hrs a week in games and most during wknds alone, switching refresh rates won’t do that at all. I play a lot of shooters, honestly 60hz is better for me to play mechanically but 144hz is for visual aspect.

[@jonathannguyen4176]

Vortex x dude even shroud the living legend doesn’t have a preference. It’s literally all relative. While it all boils down to the player, there is no noticeable difference in gameplay besides the feel of the hz of a monitor. There was an experiment with this with LTT I believe, shroud didn’t have a drop off with the different hz monitors. Yes 144 feels better and looks better, gameplay doesn’t change. Mechanically it may be harder for some if you’ve had a shitty pc before like me. I got used to it relatively quick but a lot of my friends said it was unplayable. It does not matter how many hz you have it’s your skill.

My question is, as a jungler, how to decide where to path if you have 3 volatile matchups, thank you!

[@skillcapped]

Most junglers start Red > Krugs > Raptors and hit level 3 off this. At this point you check the state of the lanes and gank the lane that you think has the highest success rate.

[@moppitukka3253]

I can give you more detailed information, but you need to be champion specific. No game in the jungle is identical even if the champions are, so keep that in mind

[@jakob8043]

And in mid game, choose the one winning to free them up to take objectives.

[@erik-900]

If you get the timing, you can also spam any emote with auto attack enabled, since it’ll restart your aa animation every time you try to emote. Slightly more spammy and great for laughs during your bm :)

Love your videos, y'all are like the most useful league channel for laning out there. I seem to be struggling during midgame and late game though. How do you determine your team's win condition?

[@skillcapped]

Honestly it's less about win condition and more about fundamentals. Play around your winning teammates and don't take fights without them. Always pay attention to the numbers on the minimap. Mid-Late game is mostly decided by teams taking out numbered fights or skirmishes without their teammates that won lane.

[@blindeyes404]

For me, this is the most helpful: Atck players only: The attack enemy player only should be in toggle mode. If it is on, your cursor should have red in the center and when off your cursor should be empty in the center. F keys: This is important if you are a jungle main. But I regularly use it as a adc main. Mute in game music, voice and ambiance: focus more in game and to stop hearing the annoying lulu laugh. Mute all: Stop arguing and start carrying.

After early game, when do you smite camps and when do you just do them without smite?

Typically smite Krugs to clear them faster since it causes the Ancient Krug to separate earlier. Otherwise, you smite when you need health, when you're sitting on 2 smite charges, or when you need to quickly clear the camp to react to something on the map.

[@moppitukka3253]

Not related to video, I just wanted to thank you for making such great content. I’ve played back in season 2 and then 7 and 8, but only for fun and I was picking whatever I liked and played any lane I felt I want to play. Same thing was going in s9, but few months ago I felt I’ve burned out in competitive fps games (top4 Apex EU on ESL, won matches on faceit vs pro players like s1mple or even grinding out top40 squads worldwide on fortnitetracker in season 4). I’ve always considered LoL as a hard game, that’s why I left it back in s2 to play competitive CS. Few months ago from funny videos from League I saw clickbaity title of one of your guides about new op strategy for a jungler (red -> raptors -> crugs -> early gank/jungle invade) and I started watching your videos. I’ve watched a lot of your guides in a week and I started progressing instantly. From g4 I’ve managed to get to p4, where I stopped for a while, because I gave Rainbow 6 a shot hoping to restore my drive to play competitive games. It kinda helped and I tried my best at it, but I still had that thing in back of my head that I knew I could go higher, because I finally started to understand League. So I’ve managed to get to d4 in less than a month by playing not even every day, just when I felt like I want to. If I had more time I feel like I could get master, so that’s going to be my goal in next season with some hopes to reach challenger. I hope you’ll create a lot of jungle guides with upcomming changes. Thanks again

Camera Drag Scroll is a super useful keybind no one ever talks about. You can hit the keybind and whatever direction you move your mouse when the key is pressed, it moves the camera just like if you moved it to the edge of the screen to move it. Reduces the amount of space you have to move your mouse for small camera adjustments in lane and elsewhere. Bound it to MB4 and once I got use to it it's way better than swinging your mouse to the edge and back to your champion.

[@BoxInaCan727]

I know I’m late but I recommenced people try to re bind the “cast skill on self” setting, as a nidalee player nothing annoys me more then waning to heal myself only to die during the time it takes to move my cursor to my champion back to where I am running, or even worse have it miss click on a teammate healing them instead of yourself. I personally have my e set to space for nid’s heal. It’s also useful in fights as you don’t have to worry about moving your mouse to heal, you can just hit space while your cursor is somewhere else

Along with /mute and /fullmute all, you can also do /mute or /fullmute enemy in order to do only the 5 enemies. I think "team" may also work for just your teammates.

will playing with my camera locked limit me from getting any better?

Yes, to a certain extent, but it depends what your goals are. Achieving Gold to Platinum should be able to be done with a locked camera, but as you start pushing into Diamond it will become a much greater hindrance.

[@TheSnowWeazel]

[@sumsidum4162]

Snow Weazel It has a lot of benefits. First, you often missclick champs, if you play a very mobile champ like katarina or maybe zed, cause in the moment you e as kata or ww as zed for example, the enemys position will be completely changed on the screen. Second, you will miss a lot of information with the locked screen. Imagine playing adc with that. You can often dont even see the opponents adc. Or playing jgl. My friend is playing lee sin with locked mode... thats impossible cause he cant even see the enemie when throwing his q... I always getting eye cancer rofl.

When you are going to recall after the enemy has left lane, is it best to freeze or push under tower if the enemy doesnt have TP

[@skillcapped]

Push as it denies the enemy CS

[@hatakenewt348]

@@skillcapped wouldn't freezing deny cs also?

[@ww_artemis]

@@hatakenewt348 i think it depends on what you wanna do next, but in most scenarios you just wanna shove the wave into the ennemy tower

[@user-it6jd1sb6k]

E.g.: mid lane and you are low life and there are like 20 caster minions which take million years to clear dont do it. Clear most of it so the enemy still has more minions than you (wave is pushing to you naturally which is good) and base. If you dont clear any minions the wave will push to fast to you and will crush under the tower which is bad You will miss some minions but your enemy will miss even more.

[@bilalkiani7398]

Depends on matchups. Pushing usually helps you roam and secure more objective. However it allows enemy to comeback. If enemy is a scaling champ better freeze as denying cs/xp and harssing will ensure they remain useless .

[@michatarzan7595]

@William B thanks

[@TaIathar]

@William B Adding to what you said on being extra ahead. You want to be far enough behind your opponent's minions that they're forced out of exp range. If you don't know what exp range is, go into practice tool and just stand in river while the minions fight. Gradually take small steps forward using right click and then S key to move very little. When you start to gain exp, that's exp range. It's mostly used in top, with some varied use in mid, and rarely used in bot. I'd say it's about 94% top, 5% mid, 1% bot. EDIT: cuz typo :P

[@kristinebrooks8692]

to elaborate on freezing when behind, it helps to prevent being dove as you arent far enough away for them to engage, but the wave isnt under turret so they cant engage without taking shots while walking in

[@eduaxp]

[@IsaSaien]

This was pretty good, I wasn't expecting to actually learn something new, but I didnt know about the targetted attack moving and had been using it exlusively to kite and check range until now, might give it a shot with the setting enabled later. Since I learned something, I'll share some knowledge as well. For attack moving, you should have a dedicated hotkey to see range ans targetting, as well as a "quickcast" attack move button. Luckily, there is an option in the settings to enable your left click as attack move, I have been using this for a long time and playing some ADCs would be much harder without it. However you need to be aware that it turns every left click into attack move, so be prepared to hold shift when clicking on your minimap or anything you dont want to attack move towards. It took some getting used to, and I would often die because I would click the minimap and walk somewhere I was not expecting. However, if you pull through and get used to it, you will find yourself better equipped to use attack move in a smoother way. (not a single problem anymore, there are no downsides other than that) Edit: could have gone deeper into the tech aspects of fps, a 60hz monitor is enough for competitive play as long as you are getting good fps. If you can double your refresh rate in fps then you will always be seeing the most up to date frame possible. If you just have 60 or less it should be fine as long as you dont have v sync on, you will be at a 1ms disadvantage at most. Virtually non existent outside of lan professional play. It is much more important to know your monitor's latency itself than it is to go above 60fps. A 3ms lag 60hz monitor is better than a 90hz 5ms lag one. On a 144hz you should be safe though as those are unlikely to have more than 2ms of lag and often have just 1. You should still check before buying but its usually the best option because of the quick response 144hz will give you, even at less than 144hz fps, if you have 70 fps on a 144hz monitor you will still be seeing the latest frame rendered every time. And lastly: If you are prone to tilting, you need to work on that. Muting is great when someone is already tilted and you need to shut them off to stop them from tilting you, but you should try to have enough mental fortitude to listen to your team's chat, its useful when they aren't raging. All chat is also important, when someone uses it to trash talk or complain about their own team in solo queue, you know that person is the ideal target to bully into tilting. Now, dont be toxic and start insulting them, that doesnt work anyway. But have your jungler target them. Tilting an enemy (through gameplay, dont be toxic) is a completely valid solo queue strategy and the jungler camping an enemy toxic player's lane will often cause more trouble to the enemy team than the jungler just helplessly trying to save their own losing lanes. So as a rule of thumb, if you are jungling, try to snowball winning lanes and only help losing lanes if you are snowballing yourself and you are sure you can help. Do not camp a lane you are losing and die to their laners. Instead, get fed on a winning lane and carry the losing lanes into midgame.

4. People will steal your pick or even ban it, yes your teammates will also ban your pick even if you have it hovered and just have to click to lock it in. Mainly the mid/support players do this. Egirls.. am I right..

[@xenobladefanboy1340]

Just play the champs you enjoy the most. Don't force yourself, if you enjoy only one-two champs, be an OTP/TTP, if you like almost everychamp, play the easiest meta picks.

@@BlahajGoesNom Not sure why you're blaming e-girls. I ban my teammates because they pick mechanically intensive champs that they shouldn't be playing in low elo like lee sin, zed, yasuo, master yi, vayne (especially cuz she won't leave lane and go mid at 15 min. she's like the old nasus except nasus knows how to go mid at 15 now), etc. because you KNOW they're just gonna feed and make you lose.

[@airun91]

@@TaIathar that's a toxic behavior buddy, you never know if the guy is good or not, and instead of banning their champ, you should ban broken champs (like qiyana or s9 shit like that) ...

[@itsjusttravis692]

I have a really neat tip. Adjust your hotkey so that to level up abilities is Alt+(ability) like Alt+R (using left Alt naturally) that way you get instant level ups. Useful if you hit 6 in the middle of a team fight and can turn it around before they even know what hit em 👌🏾

How important is the champion you play, when trying to climb in diamond

[@skillcapped]

It's kind of important, but not so important that it would prevent you from achieving your goal. A stronger champion will equate to faster results, but you should be able to achieve Diamond with every champion.

[@mateusschramm]

Have a lot of trash OTP in diamond, literally play with ANY champ that you like, you just have to not suck and play kinda not bad to climb. I'm 115LP Master adc main and i'm suck.

[@doublesalopetoimcre]

in my experience if you only care about elo you should be otp. so if you get your main role and your one trick hero, you have a better chance to win in any moba. important to note the following issue, if you are a one trick pony style player: you will be out or some cases far out from your league, if you get auto filled, get your champ banned or taken by enemy due to pick order. so if you want a shiny border (diamond, master, grand master) and not play league as intended feel free to play as one trick pony. if you want to play the game as riot games want pick two roles, one is your main role (the role you are better at) and a secondary role (your second best role). try to be good with 3 champs for both of your main and secondary role. the ladder climb will be slower, but you will be a better player overall. its my personal experience so feel free to agree or disagree. lets have a chat about this if you want guys :)

Sometimes I forget to let go of it, when I try to hit Minions xD Attackmove: Nah only when I enter a Bush or something like it, where I could get Juked. I use SHIFT+Rightclick. That's how I learned it, and after so many years it is not possible to do it different. Stop Command: Already bind to the 2nd extra Button on my mouse. F keys: I have no Idea how Big the Hands of the People must be. No Chance I reach them during Gameplay. Then I break my hands xD HUD Scale to 0: Sorry but no. That's confusing to me, because I'm used to the Large HUD since 8,5 Years. Digital Vibrance: I try this! Monitor: Sorry I won't spend money just for a higher Refresh Rate xD. I want to be good, but not making my Money with LoL xD Warded Ping: I bound instantly when it came out^^ Show Timestamps: I don't know why it is disabled in the first place.
