I use the herald to engage. You can drop it mid fight to avoid damage by jumping in then the steering is so good you can get multiple knock ups with it while being unable to be damaged and if you want out just crash into something

im the fizz during the 16:32 sequence xD i be so mad at my team when this happens. Like we got 2 towers for free why coin flip your lives take the small easy wins. So what if you have rift at least you got the charge off. most people cant ever accomplish that at tier 2. not all fights have to end with everyone dying

[@n1ght799]

Crazy how most of these don't matter below diamond 2 cause people refuse to play. It doesn't matter if you cross map the enemy jungler and your bot has prio, cause they won't move. This advice is good and you should know how to play like this but in lower elos it isn't this clear cut and It's clear that the people that give this advice haven't played in low elo for a significant amount of time.

[@Splitt3r007]

Yeah low elo is bad. Terrible. I had the worst alistar in my game. Last season I peaked plat 3 80 lp. Now I'm silver 3 this season. It's terrible how bad players are and don't understand basic concepts of league. There's things you should learn when you start playing and these 10 things are basics that should be implemented.

[@MegaMuffinMonkey]

Youre silver 3. You might want to adapt to the new game and not blame teammates@@Splitt3r007

[@kenmakouzme2451]

most of these greatly increased my wins to climb gold. yeah it’s hard when people just lock screen and dont pay attention, but all these tips are great. Also, when you do climb you’re gonna have to start doing these things eventually anyways, practice good habits

[@MegaMuffinMonkey]

Exactly. Im a horrible mecanical player but i just hit emerald w 70% wr off macro alone. Teammates will lose you some games but even if the enemy has a lead it means nothing if you can force them to use it improperly through macro@@kenmakouzme2451

[@Actile1]

Gotta love adcs who are willing to lose the game, but not farm

[@PeterMyers-jq2ef]

I like this video. I made a mid game memory technique in order to hopefully consistently use most of the concepts mentioned in this video. Mid/Late is all about choosing the right style: - Turtle (Default): A passive style where you farm at tier 2 towers, considered safer compared to tier 1 side towers which might need to be abandoned. - Cheetah (Overextended enemies): Reactive to hawk or wolf styles, where the focus is on exploiting the overextension of enemies, particularly when a fight gives you a numbers or skirmish advantage. Can also be used mid-fight focusing on the isolated enemy without isolating yourself. - Hawk (A wave arrives in the collection zone or an objective spawns in 1:00): Involves pushing lanes, particularly mid-lane, to gain vision and map control (among other benefits). It's crucial to be wary of counterplay, especially from those reacting with a cheetah style or spider style. - Spider (Objective spawns in 0:30): Utilizes sweepers and two bought control wards to set ambushes in bushes, aiming for pick-offs. Ideal bushes to select are located near objectives, with notable mentions for bushes close to a buff camp or beside a lane in the enemy's collection zone. - Wolf (Attacking their towers and nexus): Coordinated pressure across the map, be it through grouping or splitting, typically with baron buff. The key is to retreat tactically if an ally fails to maintain pressure, to avoid enemies collapsing on them, particularly those using a cheetah style. This style is overused by teams that are ahead; to account for this, ping your team back if they do it, or find shutdowns if enemy teams do it. Early game plan some key points: - To use 2 wards to see the starting location and first objective to ensure I get one objective. - Pathing to prio. I go off the assumption that a full clear starting red buff leads to two lanes (mid and side) so it's often ideal compared to blue buff start which usually ends at Krugs and the gank paths to mid early are arguably not as good. - Use prio to find bushes to wait in, mostly going for lane counter ganks which can turn into tower dives as well. - Other ideas, some covered in this video and others that are not.

[@Basichamp]

Hey Skill Capped, Im glad that u made some new guides. In recent times you gave us way too many champion lists.. ;(

[@gankfrombush]

They make lots of guides that you have to buy a membership on their website for I think

[@Jesentra]

I feel like I'm frequently, knowingly guilty of mistake 9 (jungling out of sync), but what do you do when your team is in the pressure zones and you have no objectives or farm in the enemy jungle to capitalize on in that moment? Do you just full group with the team and forget about farming/pressuring?

[@lukemidock5094]

Ward/buy items/set up for future objectives. Even just hovering out of vision will make the enemy team have to consider that you might pop up if they go to contest one of the lanes

[@RazorWinter]

Adding to number 4, a lot of the time people just hit a wall or miss the tower altogether with the Herald. Or hide into the middle of their team and die. I just stopped taking Herald is just not worth it.

[@mamaneww]

The only time a jungle cross map plays is if I'm playing it. These season 14 jgs fucken suck

[@Solar15s]

Death timers are a joke, it’s very hard to punish someone if you can’t push fast enough after a kill

[@Lindholm1337]

Something I find frustrating is knowing the right call but no one follows. Especially the baron over inhibitor call, or when you call baron on enemy jgl death timer. Usually, people are too slow to react and go start baron way too late and then blame the call on you

Mistake : Buying control wards - Dont do damage

[@Sozinus]

People in master tier still doing those mistakes. Especially junglers who dont know cross map, die 1v3 and type ff, mute at 5 minute, run down lanes. Had 4 games in a row like that recently.

[@harribertschmalzkopf2799]

Pretty crazy how the most important thing to accomplish is not to die & just get the fundamentals down. How to play objectives, when/where to ward, how priority and tempo work & fighting around numbers advantage.

Can we PLEASE get a skill capped app?

[@drizzleamstizzle11]

17:35 as a toplaner, i want everyone to pay attention here, also junglers please don’t blind start grubs like it was your camp, thank you

[@arashiOAgaming]

The new rift herald is not that valuable but it can help to push three towers when your team is ahead, when played right like if you go 5 people in mid with RH and the enemy team only sends 3 you can zone out the enemies while making sure the RH hits the towers and survives plus with the void grubs it spawns you can destroy the towers much faster therefore you can end the game more faster than before.

[@e4zyphil]

take a shot every time he says lane priority

[@Jdogrey1]

That 8 second respawn is just a recall with extra speed and the ability to buy during the timer... It is literally faster to die than to recall until level 5...

Even if your bot has prio, their bot will go drake with their mid while your bot is waiting for the new wave/makes 2 hits on the tower and u die 1v3 because no one moves, then someone writes "jgl diff" in all chat

[@ElectronicHouseFlash]

After 3 drakes are lost due to terrible Botlaners who never ward and move to objectives, they spam ping for the 4th drake and wonder why you dont trust anymore and rather focus on something else. Especially experiments like yasuo adc or brand apc are super nice for doing drake.

[@forseti3811]

This guide just goes to show how much agency junglers have as they decide most of the macro choices explained in this video here...

[@mcsy98]

but at the same time the jungler was able to do these because of their team’s lane priority/s, which is the laners’ agency. they go hand in hand and have to play for each other, not just one for the other. that being said, adc still has barely any agency anyway because it’s mostly the supports who dictate the lane 😂

Great video with good info but wish you’d talk a lil bit slower

[@namesfloop8460]

macro doesn’t matter under dia 1 elo. If you are forced to play with monkeys, do you act like a human? no because you aren’t playing with humans.

[@ponglenis9273]

Low elo players blatantly ignore you cross mapping for a dragon play to farm an additional cs or reset so the enemy bot collapses and forces you to abort dragon. So you waste time and dont get it. Worst case you die. Thats why people farm, because botlaners are mentally disabled

[@fy4072]

that means they don't have the prio. İf they farm or reset it's because they are forced to. Only if they go and hit an empty tower or base after pushing hard randomly, what yous ay may have validity. But if your bot is forced to farm or reset while enemy bot collapses, taht just means you don't know prio, and are dumb. Forcing a play that can't happen anyways.
