I've had a few people msg me about how the vital spawn is crucial here and how I didn't mention it, yep it's really important and breaking down the 1v1 vs fiora into "if the vital spawns here or there I will 1v1 or not" is really important too, he hugged the wall and perma denied the vital which was the main reason she won BUT I also I wanted to make this segment more general so people could apply it to other matchups they play and get them thinking about more than just the Fiora matchup. The thought process LIUBAI probably had was "if I get a vital spawn not against wall, I will run to tower, if it's against the wall I will hug it then win all in with BP/Ign/Wall hugging/casters"

Thanks Eragon - always good to point out that if you're on blue side vs a Fiora, first vital spawn is always facing away from the Fiora. So it's always favourable for a strong lvl 1 toplaner.

I'm a jungle main, but i'm trying to become proficient in every role to better learn matchups and help my jungle macro. These videos are so f%*^&ing good. Incredibly succinct yet full of really useful information. Thank you!!! I never thought of cookies that way!

[@KIVACytus]

Thank you Mr Eragon this was such educational content and I would like to add one more concept to this such informative video: From the start of the game you can clearly see Camille is walking from the river bush of her side to the lane and hugging the wall and why is that?it's to if the upcoming vital respawns behind her back she can hug the vital and deny the proc, Fiora is trying to to all out 1v1 her for the hope of the vital respawning any other side than that she doesn't find it but she still keeps the fight for the difference in conq and grasp rune. All good Camilles should hug the wall just how he did it to avoid the losing trade. At the end Fiora lost to Camille for the first vital respawn and Camille using better caster minions and Fiora not respecting it just as you said

Thank you for this incredible content. No doubt the most underrated LoL Coach in the scene. Can’t wait for my next coaching. Will definitely be thinking about this moving forward. This makes me think about how strong Shen can be lvl 1 in some matchups with his Q passive autos and layering those when top laners take lazy routes to lane. Hope you’ve been well my friend. #Aussie195

how did he mess up the flash auto

[@thien837]

Damn, I watched a few of your videos and I learned soooo much more than the past year

I want to thank you again for uploading such breakdown of little details to be a better laner/player, tho I may not be challenger certainly appreciate this lessons

Pure & Clean content..hope u keep what're doing

[@diamondjoe377]

For a long time I have played resolve secondary to just survive the first few minutes. But one day, i decided to switch to inspiration with cookies because I was tired of being the little bitch of my lane. And, there is one thing I definitively love about cookies, even after the nerf : it helps getting prio even in matchups your are not supposed to win in early all-in. Thus you get dominance of the wave, can slow push to crash wave 3, can help for scuttle and get a proper recall. It's not just a tool for all-in, it completely changes early tempo on the topside of the map. Anyway, you're doing a great work with your advanced educational content ! Thank you sir for your services ! Regards, A thankful viewer

[@cupidok2768]

is fiora is stronger lvl 1? her main dmg is her q and the cd is low

[@soul0172]

Best CN Fiora 14

[@-Mechazord]

Thank you coach

[@maiaharete3028]

Is it possible here that at 5:30 this trade would've been better at lvl 1 because the fiora got riposte in time to deflect 2nd q dmg?

[@TheBritishPoro]

Good shit mate.

[@ryandolm3958]

Another excellent video! I heard that Patreon Supporters can get: - Access to ALL coaching VODs - Frequent tierlists - A channel to ask you questions myself - Sometimes get video previews Do you think I should slowpush 3 waves into a patreon subscription or fast push 2 waves so the 3rd wave bounces and dodge the gank to secure my patreon subscription?? Please help!

[@EragonUK]

Slowpush 3 waves into help secure crab then doing whatever you want with your money that is financially responsible.

[@ryandolm3958]

[@carloseduardooviedorios6304]

And if el volillo has E and not Q? Renckton still wins?

God bless cookies nerf

[@nutz182]

Any chances of making educational jungle videos??

[@EragonUK]

Maybe in the future if I branch out to being a jungle coach too! But not any time soon I'm afraid

[@ryandolm3958]

For other lanes good places too look are: Jg: Nathan Mott / Virkayu, Mott has something similar to Coach Curtis' MLA Mid: Coach Curtis ADC: lol who knows wackaflcka/xfsnsaber? Supp: lol who knows corejj someshti

looks like it was 100% lucky vital against the wall

[@ibrahimabdul-hadi294]

Bro jjking just played it bad he missed his flash bassive

[@georgecao2237]

he did, but I don't think it makes a difference here, he's just getting auto + vital instead of vital + auto. Wasn't long enough for another vital to spawn to get more value out of the auto flash. The next vital spawned north anyways, he wasn't gonna reach it after the flash

[@fatalisxz4924]

@@georgecao2237 This. But even if jjking could have killed Camille in this position not missing flash (which I doubt), Eragon’s analysis would still be correct in every way, it does not invalidate it.
