When i am ahead as an adc i am always looking to freeze the wave near my tower and its been helping me snowball the lane, then if we kill the enemy bot lane i hard push it, i used to just constantly shove but found myself throwing my lead from a jungler ganking, am i correct to do this or should i sometimes just constantly shove?

[@dizzyheads]

Banning her that's what Since you can't use red trinket and the shroud nerf wasn't implement where she gets revealed by CC _Making her an assassin that isn't as weak to CC as other assassins_ She pretty much wins any trade since her passive gives her increased range + move speed and her Q slows her target At level one you could Q at the edge of the range, Get your passive and close back in to auto and do another Q Immediately getting 3 stacks of conqueror or electrocute. Combined with the fact she's manaless and have hybrid scaling she can start with a longsword changing her adaptive to AD. So not only does she have burst BUT she also can do longer trade better than other AP champions

[@eliaslynx945]

@@sarmadghafoor1484 pick zed vs her. Never really had a problem with her, not even when she got that disgusting season 8 S+ tier remake. Nowadays that her Q doesn't heal, shroud doesnt block turret aggro, and her Q cost being really high, it's honestly a hard lane to lose.

Have you guys ever thought about making a video on setting goals? For example, if you see melee vs ranged, excluding champion specific traits, what general goals can we set?

[@ed1659]

That was mention in ton of videos. For melee: let wave push, preserve your health, look for all-in

[@hoduonggiabao538]

IMO, you need to consider waveclear advantage, trade advantages ( short and extended trade), champs threat abilities, and sometime jungle matchups. Higher elo also need to look at back timing, and composition as a team...

[@hoduonggiabao538]

Throwaway Jones Foe melee vs range specific. 1st let the wave push (unless you play some champs defy the laws of Lol, push the wave will expose yourself and ranged champs can aa freely). 2nd thin the waves ( don’t let a stacked wave crash, you will give up tempo at least, at best he will poke a chunk out of your health). 3rd if your champ win short trade, this is the time to go ( most melee win short trade against ranged), if you don’t then you are in a countered matchup, freeze the lane and savage cs. If you got poke too low, freeze the lane and ask for help

[@orphandjones8193]

i've been playing this game for like 10+ years on and off and these videos for the past 2 -3 months have given me more game sense and lane control tactics than I honestly ever could've gotten on my own by continuing to play.

I know the video is relatively old but I would like to know why is important to focus on nocturne first in that fight, he already said it, he is morr burst champ, so he needs little to no time to get his part on the fight, wouldnt it make sense to get him out since nocturne takes more time to dish his damage?

[@BartixShieldsmen]

There is another exception i think to the Ad beats ap level 1 and that's mordekaiser. His passive wins extended trades pretty easily as well as his autos scaling partially off of AP

[@henriquejardimalvaresdasil6843]

Regarding the trade patterns, that AD champs beat AP with autos, what about an AP champ with conqueror, like katarina? Will the extra damage from the rune even out the damage on the trade against an AD champ?

[@mazenyasser7208]

Depends , if the kat starts long sword like i do on kat , with runes u start at about 80 AD in addition to conqueror .. autos will hit hard at early levels

Minor correction for playing melee vs melee against Diana and trading against her lvl 1: if she was smart and levelled her w first as she should against melees, she'll win extended lvl 1 trades even against ad champs.

[@julienvaz4800]

I've just tried to apply this strategy and I guess I've mistaken at some point. As Diana vs Ekko, my plan should be: 1 - Let him push 2 - Stay healthy 3 - All-in level 3 Or it should be completely different from that?

[@julienvaz4800]

His passive makes almost impossible to go for extended trades since he gains so much movespeed and runs away quickly. It was pretty annoying.

[@christhis9597]

[@ErionGugu]

Im sure many are able to analyze the game watching the replay and recognize the right plays, but making the analysis in-game and take the right decisions is smth else.. Im hard stuck bronze and silver last two seasons and I am aware that what I lack is having awareness of the totality of whats going on in the whole game (or lanes). When you say top doesnt have flash or bot ulted and jungle farted.. thats too much for me personally an honestly while i try to farm i cant keep up with that.. not that we dont know but we cant keep track or dont have the capability to be aware of so many things at a time.. thus explaining why only 10% of players are actually challenger, a rare breed lol

[@tsunamininja]

7:20 Let the wave push > will it always bounce off tower if you don't push? (i.e. last hit only or even completely give up first 6 minions) if so, is this only in mid lane and not top lane?

[@hoduonggiabao538]

That’s a very specific question. You need to consider your enemy pushing speed, and make a decision to thin the wave or not. I mean it will certainly bounce back but to what cost of your tower plates.

I should disagree with "Sylas wins burst trades" because of Camille's passive shield. During lane, as a Camille your best bet is q1 on minion, E-aa-Q2 champ and run away in most match-ups, not extended trades.But if you win extended trades, in 99% situation - you also win any trade.

[@xthelord1668]

He still wins burst trades because cammile dosen't have shiled for longer time and ability to all in pre lvl 3 especially at situations where he has more minions because minion aggro,yes you will chunk him but boy he will pull you into his wave kill your wave when bursting you till you die and then he dosen't have to shove because he just shoved so he can roam,reset or set vision perimeter,it is not roses and sunshine when it comes to melee vs. melee matchuo,this comes from dear nasus main who learnt damage output off of nasus so well i am not scared of 95% matchups because game knowledge

[@ed1659]

In higher elo players are smarter. Look, there is Camille with almost full hp and your laner is extremely low. Best case: you come to gank camille, she just E across whole lane to safety, you lost a lot of time and pressure revealing yourself on the map. Worst case: both team has jungler, not afk farmers "report lanes for feeding", so Camille's jungler sees she is pushing, creates pressure, so he won't just go on the farthest points on map - crugs to base, but he hover around mid, so if enemy try to gank Camille, he will be just 2v1, Sylas would be killed too if he comes "to help", jungle camps would be stolen - essentially game lost. But yeah, i can feel you. When you are playing correctly and utilizing your power, giving whole map priority and getting ganked whilst your jungler just afk farms and thinks of you "what a moron on mid, pushing without wards"
