Emile Salmon-Legagneur I didn’t agree with their answer either. There is vision on dragon. They could take herald, dive with Alistar and Malphite and then siege since Ashe is fed. They could send Kayn to solo drag while they siege too.

[@SushiCat0316]

yeah i agree... he should team-up, coz he'z already fed and teamfight with a fed character will be easy... plus with a tempo of Herald push... it'z better to be protected by 3 more teammates rather to be protected by only one Alistar...

[@Yunjins_Beautiful_Mind]

I would've done the same

[@ryohei9027]

the correct answer was clearly go mid, use herald and get TWO towers not just one, they could even get a hit on the inib tower (third one is only possible because it's low elo) because it opens the map way more and since they have syndra, ashe arrow and malphite ult it's free facecheck kills when they threaten baron ...

[@patrickkeller2193]

@@ryohei9027 Yeah Twitch just died and Singed is on the other side of the pit from his team. It was fairly obvious that his team would go for the fight. If hector had helped, he could have gotten a takedown or two nd then have extra tim e to get the top tower.

[@woilock3396]

I think a bad call everyone follows is better than a good call nobody follows

[@mark5338]

Tip for low elo up to d4 0lp. If you see the situation when 2 teams are close and you want to take top tower for free gold think again. Your team will engage. Doesnt matter if its 4v5 or if you're the only player with items, they will engage. The avg IQ in these elos is so low they wouldnt even get accepted at mcdonalds

[@vulpesnix6160]

3:20 it was both. After getting bot tower and with dragon off the map the next big objective is top tower / herald. When your team is not putting preasure anywhere on the map since they just respawned and the enemy just recalled there is actually no reason to stay. Even if they kill maybe 2 and die again the rest the bounty might land on a carry. Also respawn timers are still so low that they would never actually preasure the bot inhib tower. Another reason to not stay there. 4:50 how about using your Hawk Shot to get the information to make an educated decision? There is just no excuse to not use Hawk Shot there. So yes you could see that there is a threat of a teamfight when you see the rest of the enemy team just running at your mates if he would have used his ability.

[@ProfDopaMeme]

1:18 lets be honest here going bottom isn't the right call i think. What you would in this sittuation is pinging the the syndra to go bottom and clear out the wave while he and bliz push out mid with kayn waiting near by and clearing vision at either drake or herald (pref. drake since the soul is still more valuable) if he would have done that there would have been a chance for him to either contest drake or at least get some dmg on mid turret and chicken camp him going bottom is loosing tempo on the map since he is fed and wants to use this now to get more pressure on objectives and force the enemies to react (side note the vision to bot is really good so it is more unlikely for syndra to get picked again)

[@1XkevX1]

Yeah, I would've swapped with the top laner since he was clearly struggling. You also get herald pressure.

[@tox1c462]

overextending at 3:45 is a macro mistake since theres 5 mia singed has barrier and ghost not flash and so much more actually disturbing

[@cubandarknez]

The macro/micro question feels like the wrong thing to ask. He was already ahead and had money in pocket. He can try to stay and win the 60:40 2v3 or respect the risk losing current lead 40% of the time isnt worth getting slightly more ahead 60% of the time.

[@asgerjrgensen1912]

funny that i found dmistakes in his logic sometimes

[@MahiKoodaa]

Yeah and a lot here contradicts with what was taught in earlier videos. Often what they teach is in line with "while splitting here for two turrets might be the ideal play, you should never trust your low ELO team, so go mid with them to secure at least one turret" and now suddenly it's all "Hector definitely made the correct play splitting, his team shouldn't have died there" like wtf which is it, suddenly it's correct play for challenger to trust his plat team??

@@MahiKoodaa well when he win, every shit things he've done are all correct xD xD hahahah. It's so easy to comment to a replay game

[@hornet-h3v]

@@MahiKoodaa His team had the number advantage so shouldn't have had problems

[@NoisqueVoaProduction]

@@MahiKoodaa With all due respect. I hate that logic, but I agree with it. I used to play ADC and tried to climb from elo hell. Always made the path where maximizes gold and exp for my team, so I was always farming sidelanes when everyone else were doing full ARAM on mid. Getting everyone on one lane might be good to take a tower quickly, but staying there is inefficient because they share the gold/exp. Anyway, too many games my teams advanced outnumbered, died in a 4v5 where they should clearly just be under tower and let our team slowly outgrow theirs. They could defend that tower with 4 guys. But any small opportunity for engage is enough so they buy a fight they can't win, out of the tower's range. Anyway, no matter how much farm I got, since there is a lot of kills and TFs, there was always someone on the other team that got super fed and we lost it. My team gave so much gold I couldn't impact the game solely on farm. Even though I prefered to go sidelane to get more gold for my team, I started going on every TF because, that way, we would make TFs with one more source of damage, get some wins and the result of TFs would impact the whole game.

[@NoisqueVoaProduction]

Like, you can test if your team know how to defend and not engage on a 4v5 while you are sidelane. If they do it one time, you might have to shift your strategy and help them out on TFs. Or else you are going to lose from the reasons I tried to point out. So yeah, if your team is "low elo" and you don't trust them to do the right calls, you have to put this in consideration. It is better to secure one tower mid than go sidelane. If you trust your team a little bit more, you can make pressure on more than one lane and I guess it is better(if your team don't miserably dies without you)

[@danseps]

NO. It was an macro mistake, he has 1300 gold, pushed wave And be is ashe who is super imobile. If he would Just Go thru river or set up VISION it would be much Better And safer. He didnt even know where enemy jg was And his jg was not nearby.

[@shield_rat221]

As juggernauts like morde and darius when you get a lead and become strong relative to the map you can start drawing huge ammounts of side lane pressure because you can potentially come out on top against 1v2 or 1v3 scenarios or take towers quickly, so if splitpushing is viable in those games you absolutely should be doing so while warding the enemy jungle around you as it also gives your team room to play the game

I know is laughable elo for you guys, but last season I was gold 2 and now I got placed back in silver 4. I was doing most things correctly like the video says, pushing my lead etc etc but ending up 12/4 defeat basically every single game, could not climb. Now I'm doing THE EXACT OPPOSITE of what you are saying, I'm sticking with my team preventing them from randomly dying, loosing obj and ending up with a global score of 12/40 and I'm going up in ranks. Maybe your advice are for other elos, but i can assure they don't apply where I am, at least for me

[@demon3203]

last season the ranks were inflated and so this season they pretty much brought everyone back a bit of elo.

[@thibaultvandenbogaerde1504]

so I kind of got all questions right. the ones I got wrong were just me mis interpreting the vague questions. Currently returning from a half year break, I'm going through placements in iron and I cannot carry no matter how fed I get. they don't place any wards and just aram. never go to a side lane. always chase into no vision... like what do you do when someone keeps mirroring you on the map while team runs it down

[@penbro2559]

More of these please. I always had a carry mind of a team player. But here its super SoloQ-Minded

[@Pawnlust]

3:45 I don't agree. Instead of 2v3ing (5 MIA) for no objective, he should walk back through lane, take Gromp (pulling it downwards) and recall for BF or Zeal. With bot already pushed, he should then head to Rift. Micro could be better but the whole scenario makes no sense when they have a fairly easy win through more conservative play. Anyway, I agree with the rest of the video and this is a good format.

[@josemoreno1209]

totally agree with you

[@theWebWizrd]

Totally agreed with this, I'm sure someone like xSFN Saber would have watched that and said that he is making a mistake by putting himself in a position where it is POSSIBLE to lose, which shouldn't be the case especially when you are carrying so singularly. That wasn't a 90% play, it was a maybe 75% play as evident by his Alistar fucking up and him misjudging it even being challenger or whatever.

[@MahiKoodaa]

You're correct, and they straight out contradict with everything they taught in their previous video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ_TiX6FgKuqq5o "don't take fights that can go wrong from one micro mistake"

@@MahiKoodaa btw they had to do herald right then... Look at the time

[@jojobubu4643]

At min 3:20 play, it's a macro mistake. You don't ever path that way. If you want to not waste time and path that way anyway just because you're fed, you shouldn't be thinking "oh, if i flash this i win". There's no reason to waste flash on a play that they can't convert into anything. Yes they could go for mid turr but they can do it even if the enemy is alive, since they're ahead. He also didn't need to insta flash. If the enemy flash and misses u just waste flash. Flash after you get hit there, and before jayce Q. He coulda turned it around that way, p sure. So i guess it's a macro mistake that led to a micro one. But they didn't touch on that

[@themanidentifiedasdinosaur8138]

@5:40 I don't agree that going top is the right one. (My own opinion, excuse everyone.) An no dash adc (Kog, twitch, ashe) is required ALWAYS to be with the team. This is for 2 things, #1, in case a fight breaks, he's there as the damage dealer and #2, he will get protection in case of ganks. Also since mid tower is up, I believe the proper play should be take herald, get mid tower. That way, with both Tier 1 mid + tier 1 bot gone, they have a priority with Dragon. If you have bot tower down and top tower down, the objectives are still not secured. Mid tower + side tower gives you more edge on objective priorities since the opponent needs to defend farther (tier 2 towers) before going with objectives. This also gets you the advantage to push vision.

[@themanidentifiedasdinosaur8138]

Side note, if he's a split pusher (trynda, jax or my main Yorick) the correct would be going top. Pushing through sidelanes is your job and since dragon is also up, it gives your opponent a hard choice, go top and defend tier 1 or go def mid with herald then dragon?

He is aware of where the enemy team is. He's got plenty of vision and his E as well. Alistar is pathing bot and because he's fed, every enemy is reluctant to make the first move and walk bot instantly. Nobody can 1v1 him. Someone on the enemy team has to ping that they're going for ashe. That way they might follow, but i doubt it since they just had a fight mid and probably just wanna back. You should be aware of all these things when trying to make such a play.

[@mauer1]

well. look at the enemy team, look what can kill or annoy your adc, do whatever you can so it doesnt annoy or kill them anymore. Tanks should get cc'd before they reach your damage dealer. Assasins should be cc'd inside your team (so near your adc, but just out of reach or out of oppurtunities to damage your carry) Shields for main damage threads, and spammable heals for sustain. the same is with kill supporter like pyke. just instead of cc'ing just kill them.

Does this also apply to jungle kindred? (Mostly the farming top wave part, and the bot splitpush) And do vision control and objective timers play a bigger role as a jgl marksman? (Ex. 1:19 Lets say Drake wouldn't be up, but Herald would and all your camps were alive. (Including buffs). What is the correct play in this situation as fed jgl kindred? (Not accounting for any marks))

[@路人-s8l]

Is it series for ADC tutorial？ This video maybe can create some AD( without carry) but no ADC. A AD just take all resources and farm for himself. Maybe he can do some damage in team fight . That is all. This AD will never carry their team and become ADC. Just imagine , AD take all minions and creeps, but never use the advantage to carry team in team fight and die for push lane in side lane. No excuse, the AD must be trolling.

[@lunanyberg5271]

What happened when he went top to take tower is why I hate low elo. You think you're making the right decisions but when you're not with your team you all die. I think a lot of low elo mindsets comes from being in low elo and having experienced too many times what happens when you think you know what's best. If you're support and go to ward or gank mid, your adc dies 9/10 times. You're not allowed to back and sometimes not even allowed to ward the nearest bush, god forbid if you disappear a few seconds to ward drake. If you're adc and focused on farming and wave management then your support keeps pushing the lane anyway, while also desperately trying to trade even if they're tanking minions as Nami. Then they'll lose their mind because you kept on farming and go feed their anti-adc assassin mid as you're desperately trying to CS under tower and not get dived. All because you had your best interest in mind. As a jungler you're guaranteed to have teammates with self-destructive mindsets, as they all blame you for losing their lanes, and while they feed and fail to defend every tower in the first 15 minutes you lose all control of your own jungle... God forbid you took a scaling champion and tried to farm up, because meanwhile their jungler ganks every minute and your team think they have all the more reason to surrender and call "gg jungle diff". You played shyvana, you "should have taken dragons" and then they go for dragons without you spam pinging you while you ping them to back off and now the enemy killed them all and took dragon afterwards, you're left thinking "I guess the only chance I had this game was to atleast try to fight with them even if the chance of succeeding was low"... "I guess i should babysit every lane moving forward because if I try to be the least bit selfish my team will surrender @ 15". This is why even I know the answers to these kind of questions I will always doubt myself and still take goddamn stupid risks. I don't know what to do in low elo, it makes me go against my own instinct.

[@geritoxnm]

Was this a micro or a macro game mistake? It was definitely, without a shed of doubt, a macro mistake. There's absolutely no reason to try and fight 2v3 there, burning flash and heal knowing you may potentially get predicted by the enemy blitz. You did not show me the information on blitz's flash cd, so I'm guessing you didn't keep track of it which is a really bad idea. Decision making is not micro, but macro, and it was his decision making that was wrong there.

[@alexmoon273]

Surprisingly enough I actually got most of these answers correct. Hmmm I'm not surprised by this tbh. My macro is really the only thing that keeps me climbing my mechanics are usually pretty questionable XD. I've been working on mastering kat and diana so maybe it will make up for my lack of mechanical prowess.

[@larasimat]

hector macros were imo mostly correct but he suffered a tremendous bias: he knew that he did not belong into that elo and that made him more confident than what he should have been in multiple situation. while is ok to play confindent he should also be aware of the skill level and decision making of his teammates, my 2 cents.

[@pearstastegood7843]

Take this from a Challenger jg main who didn't get coaching... Cs isn't as important in jg bc you snowball off objectives, and replay watching is useless because you don't know what you're doing wrong if you're below diamond

[@JD-go2qj]

At 3min. He shouldn't have stayed after pushing bot tower. He should've based and regrouped with his team, pushed another lane grabbed an objective etc. Cause after the push they were all coming bot and a 5v2 regardless of how fed he was isn't a smart move. Now in the games I've played, the enemy team would've left 1 to push mid, rotated bot and killed me or whoever was splitting before the tower went down. Meanwhile my team wouldn't collapse on the one pushing mid, or by the time they do the enemy is already there to support and probably turn the fight around. You made the perfect statement when you said that he put too much faith in Alistair. In fact, that's the main issue with any of these "training" videos; it assumes that the 4 who are with you are trying to win and have the knowledge to do so.

[@rtwiceorb770]

Ok ok a trick question was good one normally I would do what he did trade objectives aka tover for tover but he is adc so I assumed not a trick question and I said recall path mid. After he takes that turret that was a mistake micro and macro mistake. Micro he didnt flash out the hook also the pathing. Enemy timers are up he should have expected a 3 or 4 man on him and alistar. Yea he is ahead but he didnt anticipate the posible outcome of my team or me will fuck up I die for free. Its a risk reward getting killed there is fine if your team can take other objective his team was in no position to do so so back off a bit let situation play out a bit aka fake reset/recall. On his pathing where he should go top mid or bot Bot is obvious beacuse drake objective is there and he is strong they shouuld contest it also he gets free cs. After rift herald a 4v5 you have a pick and a champion up on enemy team objectivelly stick with your team look for hard engage to get a kill or 2 then rift mid to pick 2 turrets this is a safer and better play by far then what he did. In my opinion. Yea you should always look to get more gold for you but you should also understand that getting 300 gold for you or 200 gold for your team and you is aworth tradeoff considering you can still get a kill or 2 racking up 600 gold for you and 350 for your teammates. Just my opinions. Also staying top no vision his team is again in no position to get anything from his preasure he dies for free. So same tactic can be applied as down in botoom back off fake reset to draw enemy away from your position aka alow your team to get them to react then continue the preasure or just reset spend gold. But what the fuck do I know I am no pro player

[@SebJi846]

This might be just me but isnt the play at the 3rd min more a Macro Then Micro mistakes? Yes pathing/Positioning was a huge Micro mistake and geting hooked but. We saw 3 mid backing off so they can either recall intersept bot and get ashe Shutdown or they directly move to bot so that was why i dont doubt ashe didnt know that will happen. So it is a potential 2v3 at best 2v5 at worst. They have no real vision on the map but we know noone is on sidelanes kayn only spoted twitch when the fight started out so he couldnt know how many are bot. So it would be best to back off a little wait for malph sydra to push out and then see what todo. (Edit: If they see ppl on the map like 1 top 1 mid they can attempt to sidge botlane and force them to get bot to get a free tower, if they dont they are in a safe position not get potentialy sandwitched / shutdowned and team can still force them to go top/mid herald) Regardless of elo taking the potential risk of giving up this lead geting them a bigger snowball potential is a bigger macro mistake the micro. I might have let out some other points that made me think its more macro then micro but i wrote this on a whim please correct me if im just a retard. (Edit: Just they champs alone also tell me its not the good to stay so far out without map presure and 5 missing ashe is highly imboile and ali cant at best kick one out and stone 2 others for a short period of time + ashe arrow but that be a big commitment for a risky fight even if she is fed also ashe wasting summs + potentialy dying there makes her extremly vurnable to potential assassinations from twitch in the next fight aswell as having to give up a lot of dps in that fight bc of this extra danger thanks to missing summs. IDK alot about ashe what her main elo is and what so ever but from what i understood she is smurfing right there from somewhere above plat into plat so i suppose she should know that but not every plat pleb will know what she does or have good micro and a very good judgement of their champ or what to do in a fight so this defintly is the wrong desition if you ask me) Sorry for grammer mistakes i wrote this on the phone :)

[@christianhansen7291]

Pls do this deep analysis for jungle

[@Jaxyndamere]

I dont play carries but at that trick question I was like why do u want him to go mid anyway either from bot or base.

[@pearstastegood7843]

You can carry even if you don't play carries...

[@krustimolu348]

I saw this video, picked Ashe and carried a game. It was not ranked nor above silver/gold elo, but I felt my macro was very good. Thanks guys!

[@PackersBearsFan3]

Sold botrk for TF at the end. I assume for the added utility since he had ls with deathdance?

[@juliolamlam8853]

However, if you get advantage with adc and split in 2:20, most of the time your low elo mid and sup will not give up the mid tower and die together with the turret. Then, the enemy saw you split pushing top, so they continue to push mid and you will lose both turrets. After all, due to the inherent level advantage of their solo laner, they can kill you easily in the mid-game. low elo player just don't know when to back up, they will still take the fight even when they are in a disadvantage. Any suggestion on that?

[@justbeyourself846]

You can't play like this in your own elo. Ignore your team and solo power farm as adc? You are just making excuses for him. Thay won from a coin flip teamfights.

[@cyberneticbutterfly8506]

Everyone in solo q constantly does the hindsight thing. Every time a decision is made that is correct at the time but the team dies faster than you can anticipate it's your fault. Every time the jungler seems to be close but decides to suddenly turn direction after you commit to a fight. Every time your team is 4v3 and you splitpush and team loses its your fault for not helping the teamfight.

[@cyberneticbutterfly8506]

Another major thing in Solo Q is when 1 person is fed and in base the 4 others play fights as if their team is ahead, even though locally thos particular 4 champions are behind the enemy 4 champions they are fighting.

[@renzabsss3983]

Very informative! I learned alot thanks skill capped

[@marouaneelidrissi3180]

I dont think that using your challenger macro in plat or gold and expect it to always work, sometimes your team will throw so hard multiple times expecting you to be with them making it uncarryable.

[@TheRealEd1t]

I'm way better at micro then macro because i played a lot of top lane before being an adc main so doing this kinda boosted my confidence in the macro department only thing I got wrong was the trick question XD

[@cheesemaster6463]

lol minute 2:20 i was like "dude just push bot you go mid you fucking die" because im a dirty greedy player never expected it to be a trick question haha

[@kono5717]

I always consistently mess up the micro when I am the win condition. :f

[@skillcapped]

Too much pressure....

[@DelusionalDaniel990]

You should do things like this with other roles

[@nickieb2636]

Great... That one trick question about defending mid has me all embarrassed... Lol

[@707StarlessNight]

How is picking a possible 2 vs 5 fight a micro mistake? top kek. nobody of the enemy team is showing on the map when he starts fighting bc

[@Verametz]

so you guides you talking like we always playing vs the same elo we are in but what if i meet smurf against me nothing ican do ihope you make a guide about how to play vs smurfs

[@nikos9765]

Tbh i would have gone mid not for the snowball but for the map taking 2 towers in mid its huge and you can win if they throw cause the distance in mid its rly low

[@VladimirKozomara]

After Herald he should finish top, not his fault team is like that, also first micro mistake is teams fault not his, he have advantage team should folow his lead and use his lead, instead they farm and left them alone ..

[@yaafl817]

So in the 7:20 situation, would it be ok for hector to stay if syndra and kayn were pressuring mid or bot? Is it worth to force 4 to 5 enemy members on one lane and die to let your team members take towers?

[@colingustus3126]

freagging AWESOME VIDEO. keep up the good work boys and girls

[@TanHoang-cw5ss]

8:53 i don't understand why that is not a good position. He have his teammates in front of him. Please explain I answered correctly all questions but I play jungle and support

[@ilyasfarhan1802]

maybe the enemy can flank him on the side? if hector's team have vision on the jungle, i guess he is pretty safe in that position

[@Marwington]

Lesson learnt - teammates suicide randomly, don't let it distract you. Also, dodge hooks.

[@Eierwurst99]

There are a lot of mistakes he makes this game, which you call good plays.. Especially splitting top after herald was supertroll, since its obvious theyre gonna fight, as an adc you have to participate on full on teamfights; and if u do decide to push top at least spamping the team not to fight. Playing selfish all game will loose you those kinds of games for sure, he got pretty lucky here! This video would describe Top or Mid snowballing, but as an adc its almost always the correct play to try helping your teammates in fights, at least if theyre somewhat winnable. I really enjoy ur videos and theyre very educational but this one has a lot of macro mistakes in it!

[@qlutch2998]

Im still pretty sure he shouldve go mid after herald with that lead and with twitch dead they couldve got 2 towers then he couldve rotate bot or recall

[@Bobbi11ify]

Go to herald and go top to take 2 turrets and force the outnumbered enemy team into a fight topside would have been another good option
