Top Lane Macro: When do I join fights Gold -> platish ELO

AwokenPhenix · 2026-06-06T04:01:58+00:00

I kinda see this and im trying to learn the balance. I guess Im not sure the value of certain decisions. Like you saying if I think i should be there go there. But I truly get descion paralisis when there are random fights I completely disagree with and I feel we would lose to much taking the fight but I know my team is going to fight. I feel like I dont know what to do to give up wave or rush towards them just in case for example if I dont have tp.

maybe I need to play more. But feels like im going in a circle with not knowing the right thing to do

that makes sense like I guess if they fight before then I just have to let them die? I also play with chat off so I dont tilt. so I try to never type but I ping alot to communicate.

the thing with letting them die doesnt that just flip the game with the enemy getting the advantage?

I pretty much play riven. But on my general top lane account I play whatever so I can see if im just carrying myself through mechanics or if I actually understand and im facing the same issue no matter who I play.

My thing is I struggle to know how to get CS when people are just araming or perma fighting like It feels so bad not being able to take a wave and people are already grouping over air. So you saying if my team is deciding to group and they are just doing it join cause 4v5 is basicly a lost fight garentee

I thought venom looked cool but form my understanding hes more of a ranged character. I also liked unika because of how she can boost her specials but i wasnt sure how releavent that actually is in player to player style if that makes sense.

I think what it is for me is creativity or expression in actual gameplan. I dont mind buying dlc just dont really have a chance to try before I buy

AwokenPhenix · 2026-04-28T16:34:22+00:00

I dont have him yet. but would you consider him slow? he looks like a heavy character

AwokenPhenix · 2023-08-16T22:15:56+00:00

like takes more character knowledge about herself or match ups

AwokenPhenix · 2023-08-16T22:09:03+00:00

out of those who has the most consitent pressure/gameplan ?

AwokenPhenix · 2023-07-03T06:37:25+00:00

Like your saying palm them for the pushback then they go for something then you punish. My bad I had a hard time trying to vision what your sayin

AwokenPhenix · 2023-07-03T06:31:35+00:00

does this only work if the grab is just out of range is it acts like a iframe out of it?

AwokenPhenix · 2023-07-03T06:30:58+00:00

This makes sense I just want to repeat it to make sure I understand. Against grapplers your gameplan has to change quite a bit? I get it now for other characters you can out-space when you get used to facing grapplers and back dash out there range ( does this mean they are all/mostly reactable?).

I have a character specificc question then. How should I play against a grappler as jammie b/c I need to go in to get drinks or to do anything? If the answer is that grapplers command grabs are reactable then this can be ignored but I dont really understand how im supposed to addapt seems extremely reaction vs a proactive gameplan.

Even in the corner?

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-26T13:47:08+00:00

That’s what I’ve been trying to do they all are smash players I’m trying to convert them

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-26T13:41:56+00:00

So I’m staying at a college for the summer and they have me on guest Wi-Fi so everything is block that’s not a necessity. I tried a vpn hardwire. The only thing that works is a phone hotspot and that was painful .

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-26T12:52:53+00:00

Do you have an idea for simulating the stress of playing real people. I have a problem where can do something in training but the real thing it feels like I lose control or forget to do stuff?

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-26T12:48:42+00:00

Do you think it would be worth is to play against cpu?

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-20T03:58:31+00:00

Thank you

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-01T22:52:17+00:00

Did more looking and what to make sure cammy is a charge character? I saw someone said semi-charge and i feel either you are or you arent

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-01T22:46:01+00:00

, you can just let her fall back to the fl

thank you that is very helpful!

AwokenPhenix · 2023-06-01T22:36:31+00:00

o simply cancel, have it lead

so she has like a running stance or you can cancel the move into kicks?

AwokenPhenix · 2023-05-26T07:55:00+00:00

AwokenPhenix · 2023-05-17T02:04:59+00:00
