How to lose lane and win game, starring Dignitas and Cloud9

[@AngelaSSHG]

This is so complex that I'm now rethinking how much I think I know about pro games

[@billywingrove27]

You and everyone else doesnt know anything. We are are solo que players. LCS, LCK and the rest ... its a different game.

[@Craftee6]

Yesterday i was thinking how h2k didnt go to worlds and mostly because having one of worst bot lanes in eu, i accidently found bot lane focused stream of them fighting intz in grp phase. Among the others it was commentated by ls. H2k completely stomped that game (starting it from bot lane), and in all that stomp ls was still pointing out numerous mistakes that h2k has done in the game. I was shocked by the ammount ls was able to catch.

[@doobick1898]

Its not that complex. Its mostly all exaggerations or just too much details. Its all just them playing and using knowledge.

[@ElfBroYaHa]

Don't need to know the complicated teamwork stuff cause nobody's gonna listen :D

[@yocker95k]

You know nothing John Snow

[@sebi2562]

This is such good content, im suprised you're not at the top yet..

[@Tcmate05]

Now "how to win lane and loose game" and take 1 of my games

[@darkfalls15]

lose*

[@juanpablominorusainztakata1898]

Same

[@kapitan19969838]

ByNexus Or mine

[@RPclone]

so true when you win lane, you Starr roaming around. While you spend time roaming and do nothing with the nonexistent team cooperation, you lane opponent simply safe farm it through and win in team fight

[@TypMan687]

Then ure doing smth wrong, if u know that ull get no help from ur team just crush top and get 1-2 turrets and then u should be able to roam without the help of ur team cause lvl/gold advantage^^

[@moustafazayyat]

The content on this channel is world class! am so glad i discovered it

[@ambience5037]

That's not soloQ with 5 random players :D

[@ambience5037]

michal erga your comment made no sense.

[@A.C_B.]

but you can do similar stuff in solo queue. when you loose your lane just go somewhere else and help them. this works especially well as support or midlaner

[@elijahburimi]

Not really lol. If you get stomped as a midlaner, the last thing you want to do is roam while behind unless it's a guaranteed kill or you'll just leech another lanes exp, potentially feed, and have your enemy mid laner take your tower and roam with you to make everyone else lose their lane.

[@littypug]

Lol Cobbbyyy he means to say the people who he plays with in ranked are not people who he practices with many times a day they are random they don't listen to one person some times

[@gordonlim4252]

Agreed tho you don't really have any communications either then the chat and the chemistry needed is not there plus some team members are just stubborn lol

[@LoLClimb1]

Prematurely ending lane phase is the best way to deal with loosing match ups. DIG opened up the map to ovoid confrontation and let minion manipulation do the rest. Very insightful video.

[@A.C_B.]

this also works in solo queue. especially midlaners and supports are usually great gankers.

[@andrewzheng4038]

If the team knows how to do lane swaps properly...

[@tateprevailsYT]

*losing

[@jacksongriffin8371]

I just want to say, I love this channel. The quality in content and especially editing is beautiful. And also, as a league player, learning so much information regarding esports and the game in general, is so entertaining and helpful. Keep up the good work man.

[@rythm4964]

4:40 I like how C9 sent Trundle to farm bot side someone pinged that he should't go but he still went

[@ElfBroYaHa]

No idea what you're talking about *goes back to lose lane and win game with the zero damage tryndamere tactic by KBVTV*

[@LegacyAirTech]

The Content on this channel is extremely high quality and I LOVE how in depth the analysis is. It's truly amazing work and not only keeps viewers engaged but also teaches them more about the game. I don't know why your channel has not blown up yet, but it will eventually. There will be a day when this channel goes from 100k subs to 750k subs. Trust me. (I would be surprised if you don't become official LoL analyzers and media representatives at some point)

[@spike-de5zo]

Wtf when did league suddenly became chess

[@Theorchero]

At the higher levels of play it's been like this for a few years now.

[@goulash6737]

Scince ever

[@aristosachaion_]

League has always been like chess in the pro scene and in challenger or master.

[@anasothman3884]

Solo queue every rank is a clown fiesta , since players cant communicate that well due to having to type, if voice comms are enabled then this will change. Orrrr you'll just get flamed in another language who knows.

[@HappyGick]

In pro play, League is pretty much like chess. Seriously, the plays pro teams manage to think about are simply impressive. While for us, the casual League players, it looks like a normal game and that they won because of their picks, there's actually a lot more science behind.

[@Systematiclol]

Defiantly a decent strat for avoiding early skirmishes if your mainly a mid-late game team, but chuck 2 fire drags in early and don't have a nunu/cho kalista (w/e baron objective security) and this could play out quiet differently.

[@kasparkesamaa5960]

So happy to see this channel grow.

[@Blastros01]

The best thing on this channel is the tactics series imo

[@wheatleythebrick2276]

As A gp main I thank god this video exists

[@potato877]

Holy Shit, I actually thought that this was from LoL Esports. Well played Blitz! Thank you for delivering such awesome content.

[@wasalapa]

please make a series out of this type of video

[@BlitzEsportsLoL]

It is a series! It's called "Tactics" :D

[@HichTun94]

So basicaly just one call which is sending Trudle top lost them the game, and probably the whole series

[@BlitzEsportsLoL]

Yeah, that indeed let DIG snowball to victory. But the key point here is how DIG avoided laning phase completely and just rotated around the map--this way the CS differential don't continue to increase as C9 has to play at DIG's pace.

[@musti_a]

No, it's the fact that they said fuck everything and played purely around objectives to avoid confrontations with enemies that could lead to small teamfights, which in turn would snowball C9's lead even more. This video beautifully shows how playing around the Map and towers can be a whole different playstyle/game which can force enemies to play at your pace and there is not always one way to win (strong lanes, skill etc.)

[@LamFGC]

No, because you can't think of it like one thing. Had DIG not stalled and done the things they did, they may have been in an even worse spot gold-wise, to the point where they couldn't do anything but watch objectives be taken (if they could even have vision of the objective) or die. It's almost never just "one bad call" that loses a team a game.

[@astronomy7823]

But what would happen if instead of C9 committing to the race, they send 4 members to the top lane to stop DIG's 4 members from pushing and possibly force a fight and win it? I think this is what would happen in solo que, and you might not have enough damage to take the turret out before all the enemy members alive. Or the enemy top laner is a bit fed and manages to defend it until his team arrives. What would we do then?

[@windscar18]

Talonted: In solo queue, the situation wouldn't happen in the first place because delayed lane swaps are very rare. The reason why C9 doesn't swap to top lane is because shifting to top lane would lose tempo as by the time they're spotted, Dig are already in the top lane. But, in order for that lane situation to happen in the first place, there would have had to have been enough coordination to initiate it.

Thank you Jesus

[@princejahn8234]

Isn't it the opposite for gbay?

[@jesuschrist2268]

Nah, hes trash

[@aristyras]

Could you please make a guide on how to lose lane - lose game?

[@99bits46]

more please

[@jdjirlauw]

I wish i could do that with my solo queue games but they wouldn't even bother trying

[@aquawaveseafaring]

Usually it's because the other team throws hard af but you know what that also works

[@fuzoritodummy3591]

You should make more videos about lcs strats. this vid is awesome.

[@taylorhetherington745]

I feel like I learn so much from these videos, amazing content!

[@kene3988]

4:56 This fight game me goosebumps for real thought xd

[@Sniperfuchs]

Really good video, but what would be interesting would be giving hints at what C9 should have done to respond to Dig avoiding them. "Just" forcing fights is easier said than done, but while you were going through each of Dig's steps to crawl their way to late, it would have been really nice to see a possible responses or things to prevent this from happening in the first place.

[@Merazz]

they cant do anything. had to play at digs pace, and if they forced fights it was likely they wouldnt win as they didn have a lead in the first place

[@derbrot-sehrbrotig267]

As someone who played League on a Semi-Professional level I must disagree. If C9 would have predicted that DIG is laneswapping which was really obvious , they could have swapped their lines aswell and force DIG to stay in the exact same Lane Matchup... there is also another way to "predict" them apart from being smart ... Deep Wards are the essence of every play . Just imagine that C9 would have warded the top lane between the second and the inhib tower. They would have seen that play coming at least 1 Minute earlier and they would have had time to react.

[@markandroguevarra6764]

I wish to have these kinds of plays..

[@lozanojoshaaronm.3957]

Team Coordination and Their mind sets is insane.

[@b8IIin]

Shrimp had a 100% kill participation that game holy..

[@KnownNever]

So glad someone is making good content with ESports!

[@bachi1a320]

That's such a good vid dude keep doing this !!

[@davidd406]

yaboi blitz back at it again with quality content

[@alejandrosolano6891]

Why was a Tham Kench around 1:50 ?

[@Tipperito]

the thing is this level of coordination and team work is practically impossible in bronze or silver and maybe even gold, usually if the mid laner starts losing lane they just flame the jungler and tilt the rest of the team and then start early surrenders

[@regret1546]

eerniizz Same, it's like instead of trying to play the game and try to come back and possibly even it out, players instead just flame and blame others for their mistakes and misplays.

[@pavlevilotijevic7266]

So they were like: eh we are gonna lose the lane anyways, might as well not feed the enemies.

[@phicolthegeneral7528]

1:04 to 1:16, you accidentally put solo queue clips in ?

[@Thetysonbearvlog]

In all the clips he did that, it was just showing the matchup and the points he was makign about them, it wasn't clips of that game or anything

[@cameronmccarthy7587]

They're good clips to display how the lane behaves in its purest form, because the pro game itself likely didn't display those as strongly

[@booyaalp]

Hey! I just discovered your channel and immediatly subscribed. I have an idea for your next video, its more like a question i am actually struggling with. What changes the meta? What is the meta? How does it turn upside down with just a few changes? Are they intentional or do the players contribute to that? I hope you read it think about making a video of it! :) Greets

[@regret1546]

Booya ! I may not be them, but I might answer some questions, I hope. The meta is what defines other champions to be "OP" and a usually trendy meme, no joke. The meta can change whether through a buff, a change in champ gameplay, or a pro player using an off-meta stuff then people start copying it. Honestly, it's pretty bull since the meta is what keeps some champs out of play. i mean yeah sure, you win games, but do people really have fun with it? Nope.

[@luchox36]

Excellent analysis

[@xz9499]

Blitz Building a a goldenn era of League castering right here.

[@Finndramere]

Its the opposite for me. Win lane lose game. Teammates OP

[@kersguuup]

Finndramere Learn how to finish games asap, trick2g makes a lot of video regarding to that

[@Finndramere]

Charles A well you really cant do that if botlane is losing. Only way to win is stretch the game so the adc can catch up. Low elo i can carry 1v9 but in diamond thats another story.

[@blendon8]

Finndramere Sir can you give me a tip what should I do as a jungler when bot and mid loses despite giving them kills by ganking them. I play in low elo silver 2, mostly rammus, cho gath , mundo. Should I perma push toplane? Or just play carry junglers ? Or something else ? I have played like 30 games in silver so I'm positive I can climb but I lose so many games because I don't know how to carry.

[@Finndramere]

Pure Shqiptar play more. Watch LS (a league of legends analyst) in youtube. Get good with the mouse and keyboard. If you arent good with the mouse and keyboard you should start with less mechanical champs. After you get good with mechanics widen your game knowledge. I cant explain it all you need to see it for yourself. Now regarding your questions. If you help them win lane then they lose its probably not your fault. If you can see a teammates weakness try to compensate for example they keep getting ganked, ward for them. They keep dying dont give them kills because it resets the gold the enemy can get if he is killed again. In silver picking a more agressive jungler is better because you wont rely on your teammates to carry. If you are really that good then you should probably carry your 4 teammates.

[@Finndramere]

Pure Shqiptar or you can just ignore what i just said and just go to LS because he explains it better.

[@forevergogo]

Mordekaiser strat: everyone feed enemy arc, everyone burst that adc down, have that adc wreck the enemy team.

[@miaolichn]

Man this felt like calculus I don't understand it so I'm going to summarize it for better understanding: > DIG had losing lane match-ups > DIG had losing lanes 8 minutes into the game > DIG initiated lane swap, pushes first tower and recalls because if they continue pushing, they could even lose inhib because the enemy line up is stronger > Although DIG lost two towers, the waves are pushing into DIG, which is an advantage for twitch to stall > DIG continues to give up objectives such as their towers to avoid bad match ups in trade for safely stalling the game and getting CS > Before infernal drake, trundle decides to split side lane but it only delivers waves to twitch > DIG gives drag up to shut down trundle > During baron time, when both teams were looking into br, DIG loses alistar and trundles goes bot to push without teleport, and DIG takes baron > DIG abuses the momentum and collapses a wombo onto C9 safely > ***FAST FORWARD INTO 40 MINUTES*** DIG stalled so well they won the gave despite the unfavorable match up THE END PS I just hate how they say DIG like it reminds me of Diglett, like you could say Dignitas I think it sounds better. Anyway, GGWP! Love this content

[@maddafakka7783]

such a good explaination of pro tactics. nice video

[@acesomeone123]

@1:40 you said dignitas i guess it should be c9

Hi can you break down the game from LCK??

[@loleffusively8900]

Which game in specific would you like to see and why?

[@kevinc6955]

LoL Effusively the gauntlet in korea where kt got kicked out just like clg whem they got 3dplace!! bullshit haha

[@shreyaspai3791]

Lolesports channel has a breakdown of the skt vs kt series in summer split. it's that 50 min game which was super close. There's that and one more breakdown where skt trackdown score's jungle route throughout the game and starve him out. I love watching these videos an realizing pro games are just on another level and that there's so much to learn. There's also another breakdown where they show how LongZhu beat Skt.

[@SkitZHitZ]

This is good for flex. But for solo q could almost be 100% sure no one would sacrifice their cs count their kda or anything in order too keep their hyper carrys alive

[@301SO]

I feel like c9 does stuff like this in all games

[@ajbass3685]

I don't agree with giving up infernal completely to get a kill on trundle top. I think contesting drake even if just to force the trundle TP so he doesn't have it available for baron or trying for a steal with nunu would have been a better call since they dont even get the top tier 2 turret after killing trundle. The only reason it might seem like forcing the tp isn't a good option is because impact ends up tping in response to maokai and then making that huge mistake of spliting bot thinking that his team can push dig off baron with just the 4 members which they probably should have been able to do tbh but of course u can't predict that. Besides that really good content keep it up, interesting breakdown.

[@SamBsound]

I think they gave up infernal not because they wanted to, but because they knew the only realistic alternative was to fight over it. They didn't like their chances of winning that fight, but more importantly, it wasn't worth the risk because losing that fight would snowball the game in C9's favor. The kill on trundle was by no regards the better end of the deal, but it was the only deal which offered them anything more than a few summoners or a bit of farm.

[@danielyu3275]

great stuff

[@ilov3shibas365]

00:22 wait, this was a bot game lmao

[@trumpetperson11]

loooool

[@Woodshadow]

holy shit... I know so little about the thought process in high level pro play

[@Michele-nz8oz]

I knew league was a complex game if played correctly, but I never imagined It was this hard.... This is a really complex strategy to pull off, and that's why they are ProGamers.

[@lastnamesdang]

Lcs analysts and casters need to watch this content

[@lancezealot]

This makes maps interesting

[@game_changer1331]

So... what about Solo Queue?

[@staelit9835]

wtf, great explanation and editing. u are insane

[@darienshields9589]

This is great advice and all but is Literally impossible to put into practice unless you are in a five man premade team

[@diadlo777]

In Solo Q when bot tries to go top in a losing lane the bot gets yelled that and reported. lmao

[@SamBsound]

In Solo Que, bot makes sure to int before the lane swap. :P

[@minhhieunguyen613]

I think this only works at lcs or at least challenger

how do you get out drafted so bad?

[@acurlol]

How do u lose to bots? And if ur doing it on purpose u could have just done custom and then ff

[@A.C_B.]

great video but you know that something is wrong when syndra (a lane bully) looses against cassio (a late game hyper carry) thats just not right cassio really needs the azir treatment getting nerfed into the ground and then slowly and carefully rebuild with a new, more specific purpose. if you look at the current pbe changes you can already see how the new azir is going to work and I love it

[@Yakuson1196]

okama king Cass is deceptively strong in early game

[@NKay08]

Well, they just nerfed Twin Fangs base damage, which allowed Cassio to be strong in the early game. I don't know if that's enough though.

[@princejahn8234]

okama king syndra is basically a hyper carry as well.

[@88spaceking82]

[@midqualitygaming3498]

I'm looking to advance my ARAM gameplay to the next level. Does anyone know any coaches that can help me?

[@mediocrecreampuff3847]

1st of all why? 2nd of all ARAM isn't as comlex as normal play so probably not especially since theres no ranked ARAM.

[@midqualitygaming3498]

Summoners rift gives me too many negative feels. In ARAM the more your team feeds, the more fed you get through experience from the one and only minion wave. You can play any champion you want because everything scales up for free and if you have good autoattacking mechanics, every champion with 500+ range can be played as an adc with fairly reasonable success.

[@derbrot-sehrbrotig267]

I stepped down from Semi-Pro-Play 2 years ago and nowadays I just play ARAM cause Soloq isnt fun to me anymore. There are tons of Aram Tournaments where you can get up to 6000 RP a week. Try to look for 4 other players that want to play with you and improve. The "strategy" in ARAM is about dying at the correct Timing. There are multiple situations where you can just reset to buy items without giving the enemies advantage. Since you cant draft Champions you gotta perform on most of them and improve your Teamfighting , which is one of the most important things in ARAM. If you still have some questions feel free to hit me up^^

[@midqualitygaming3498]

I have played over 2000 now approaching 3000 ARAM matches and I'm at the point where I can't improve much because I'm not getting matched vs players better than me anymore. I've never heard of any "ARAM" tournaments but that sounds... annoying to participate in

[@manhcuongle7032]

[@Legacy_ADC]

Too bad this wont work in Solo Queue....

[@sniffy5615]

Ok... and how could C9 go about stopping this?

[@somprasongu-chupongamorn6435]

It took him 5 min to tell me twitch out carries kallista late game I think everyone knows twitch is scary af late game. Cool strategy but in solo que someone will feed and just snowball from there if you have all late game team comp.

[@od2437]

The use of language could be more casual, to me it feels that a simple situation is explained in such a complicated way. Not necessary , this is not a writing competition.
