As someone who struggles against lane bullies in mid, this is genuinely the most helpful video I’ve seen on Pred. Subscribed

Thanks so much for the support! I'm glad you found it helpful!

Surrender and go next or pray the other team throws.

[@brianhildebran4351]

Another thing that you can do is force your opponent in lane to return to the lane when they start to roam. Notify your teammates of missing In lane. As soon as you see them pop up in another lane. Immediately push your lane to tower. Start taking the tower until you see them returning to lane. It's. Always frustrating for a off laner who's ahead and can't do nothing with it. Because he has to choose to stay in another lane.Or loses towers. It also helps to communicate with your teammates that you are behind. So that they know to be looking for the offlaner to roam. Did this in a previous match, and though my opponent was ahead of me, he was behind the rest of my team. He ended up falling behind me in cs and we won the match.

Absolutely agree! I should have included that in the map awareness section, but oh well 😂 great tip!

[@jasonhoffman4514]

Awesome content, I love this game and we need more content creators like you

[@BrotherBmp3]

[@Chasm1111]

Get it homie!

[@ColonelKal-bu2qc]

Agreed! It's free to play! We'd love to have you!

Hey, Kal! Great video. When it comes to early game snowball i just wanna say something to the junglers as a mid main: i accept that you might not help me get river but please at least don't sabotage me, if i'm low on mana let me get one buff and i promise you i'm gonna dunk on my opponent. If i can outlast them in lane i will gain priority over them and help you gank. Speaking of rivers, i'm sure a lot of people know that once you clear 2-3 waves in mid you can go and place a ward on their jungler's 2-camp or on the stairs leading up to it (top left one on this picture 11:03) so you can see if they're coming to contest, and if they are you decide whether to give up or try to pry the other one from your opponent in mid (extremely risky, the jungler WILL walk over and kill you). But after that what i've been doing is place a ward behind me (bottom right on the same picture) instead of on the river buff, and then i just go the long way around to get river, which guarantees my safety.

Oh and congrats on becoming a father man, how cool is that! Have you decided on a name yet if that's not a secret? I couldn't make it to your latest stream Sadge

[@ColonelKal-bu2qc]

Absolutely agree, whenever I'm jungle, or even Mid, I try and coordinate with my jungler so that we both get one of the buffs and deny them from getting any. I'll usually do something like "Attack left lane" "Attack River Buff" and just pray they have a morsel of awareness lol And it's definitely always smart to take the slightly longer route behind, instead of taking the much more dangerous shortcut and saving 3-4 seconds lol But I appreciate the kind words and it's pretty awesome being a dad so far besides the sleep deprivation 😂 and don't worry, you didn't miss anything lmao I pretty much just played a few games to shake the rust off, I was pretty conked, but I'll be on pretty much all weekend! Great hearing from you as always! Hope you're doing well!

[@alister356]

@@ColonelKal-bu2qc Oh man sleep deprivation is my second name lmao. Might pull an all nighter right now actually, i have an exam coming up tomorrow that will determine whether i can enroll in a master's degree program, i'm nervous af, and then next monday i gotta defend my project for my diploma, guess neither of us is getting sleep any time soon

[@ColonelKal-bu2qc]

Late response but I hope it goes/went well! I know it's hard especially with something super important like that but chug a bottle of NyQuil or something and try your best to get any sleep! Gotta keep those mentals at peak operating capacity 😂

[@alister356]

@@ColonelKal-bu2qc Weeeell i got 91/140 on the exam, kinda meh but this was the first time any student has seen this type of test so we all went in blind, i'm already seeing loads of messages from my peers saying they fumbled a lot of those questions that i know i also got wrong. I feel confident this score will be enough to get me in to where i want but i'm not yet sure if i will beat the competition for one of those spots where you don't have to pay money

[@BackiNator123]

meanwhile me starting the video and at 0:15 thats 100% me when my team is dog and we get dunked on

[@ColonelKal-bu2qc]

I feel that on a spiritual level my man 😂😂😂 that's 90% of the reason I made this one! Hopefully the appropriate crowd see's it and takes heed 😂

[@kguap9655]

Great video I’m probably gonna send this to 2 or 3 of the guys I run with also you should definitely keep capitalizing on these beginners guides because not a lot of pred content creators are doing em and it helps the game in the long run

[@ColonelKal-bu2qc]

That's awesome! I appreciate that a lot! Hope ya'll are having fun!

[@rayplaysgames_RPG]

If you are playing against a competent enemy team, there is nothing you can do when they get ahead. The only way is if the enemy team throws or someone dc's.

[@ColonelKal-bu2qc]

True but there’s a big astrick, it depends how far ahead they are, what stage of the game and how determined your team is. I’ve had a number of very memorable games where we were getting absolutely rolled and we simply capitalized on a good opportunity like stealing an objective. Your mental are a huge part of coming back too. I can’t count how many games I’ve lost due to someone just having a full on mental breakdown cause they died a few times, it’s annoying but I just don’t understand why people like that play the game. You’re going to die a lot, make mistakes and lose 50% of your games no matter how hard you try until you put thousands of hours in and understand the deeper mechanics because that’s the way MOBAs are designed. Positive vibes = positive game outcomes 😂
