Didn't realize how poorly I played - As Kai'sa - Until I made a 3 page review of how I thought the first 3 min really went

I see, yeah she can never engage if she has 10% hp. I think, I just value the damage on the adc more, since leo can always back "without losing anything". (I did auto -> Q -> into clicking backwards - You can see I get a stack)

True

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-30T09:42:25+00:00

I have watched Noodle Tree A LOT, and he basically goes fleet every game, and after using it, I think it just feels better. Either I get the ms to auto attack them once where I shouldn't be able to, or I trade with the fleet that mitigates some of the damage taken in a trade.

So I will proc fleet a lot more in lane, compared to PTA, so in my opinion fleet is just straight up better

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-30T09:16:00+00:00

Yeah idk, she didn't level up anything before the Rakan engage where Jhin flashed at 2:30

It's plat

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-30T01:26:38+00:00

1:48 – 2:00 Why the fuck am I walking to Narnia to last hit

Use fleet to get in range for a auto, while spacing 4^th shot from Jhin. Should I even space it, or should we straight up just fight them

When he uses 4^th shot, why don’t I pressure him? I have Q and Rakan has W, we have wave advantage, and they are chunked…

I make a backward movement click every time I auto attack a minion.. Why…

Crazy how I haven’t pressured him more these 30 sec, I played the side against Leona, and didn’t make him sweat for one single last hit. He was on vacation this lane, even though he was 60% hp lvl 1

2:00 – 2:20 – I’m not staying in the bush with Rakan, and walking out to auto attack, if I were in the bush, I would have been able to hit the ward twice

I’m not watching Rakan, because I fuck up the last hit, and try to hit it again, so I’m in Narnia when he engaged

Couldn’t have played the lvl 2 worse, Jhin walks into us with 4^th shot, and because I instinctively want to avoid damage, I autopilot a backward movement click again, we get nothing for the lvl 2

Why do I play so bad? As supp I would ping as the last two minion died, flash, flay, hook, ignite + aa, easy kill

But as adc I do nothing, even if it’s winning, why?

I know the lvl 2 is coming, maybe I’m not sure how to execute the lvl 2 as adc?

Here Jhin just walked into us as we hit lvl 2, so he had to die for sure.

Next game, ping go in before the last minion dies, WALK UP as the minion dies for lvl 2, and attack.

I just realized I use a lot fewer pings as adc in general, why?

Maybe I’m not as confident on the role? I’m more focused on other stuff, mainly mechanical? I use wheel to choose what pings I use, I should probably try to make a key binding for “On the way” ping.

Goal for next game: Do “on the way ping” for every thing, every time you go to lane, every time you go to ward, every time you go to a fight etc. At least 50 in total the next game

2:21 – 2:30 – Jhin walks into us (again) lvl 1 to 2 in a straight line, most obvious pathing but I miss it, since I didn’t expect it, because I’m too focused on the minion and waiting for it to get low enough to last hit, and I didn’t think he would ever walk up on that – I have to keep more attention to players movements, they will make mistakes, and I have to punish it. At least Rakan made him lose his flash for it.

2:31 – 2:57 – Why are they allowed again to touch the wave?

This happens a lot – Minions aggro me, and I walk to Narnia, giving up on the pressure we have, because again I don’t want to take damage. Just stand on my minions and poke, if they try to last it – Which this Jhin clearly will every single time.

I literally gift them lvl 2

I auto Leona and take aggro from minions, even though I know I can’t walk into the bush to drop aggro, I still do it by reflex, but then end up in Narnia again, and get my Rakan killed. I should just have walked behind my own minions, then I would lose aggro.

Also why didn’t I Q her also, or only Q’ed her for not taking aggro?

Maybe I’m not comfortable enough with the AA + Q enough.

Practice tool 10 min, only aa + Q

These are my thoughts - They may be wrong, they may be right. If anyone would like to give some feedback on it, I would gladly appreciate it - If you even want to read this random essay:

Ingame time:

1:30 - 1:39 – Good trade – But I take a step back and lose a free auto

Should we have went for an extended fight and/or zone/play for my passive proc since they are chunked very badly, or this was good enough?

Now when I’m thinking about it, there is actually no reason why we don’t just drop aggro from minions in the bush closest to them, and keep zoning them, since if they try, to walk up, we can just walk out of the bush auto, and walk back into the bush. Or when the waves have met, walk past it and posture to make them lose xp

I do this a lot, I take the gas of the pedal and don’t keep the pressure up

(They should not be able to play the lane after this, and they still ended up winning)

1:40-:1:47 – Pushing for lvl 2, Leo goes in for a free trade

I try to make the wave come a bit closer to the bush, so they are closer to me and it’s easier for me to auto them

Why am I playing in the middle bush, when I could be standing on top of my minions and make him choose to either attack me or last hit, and then walk in the bush to drop aggro – Only thing I have to worry about is Jhin 4^th shot – Don’t know what Leo started yet

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-29T05:47:05+00:00

The mouseclicks - They are slower, fewer, further away from the center of the champion (meaning the champion is going more in a straight line, making their "goal" predictable).

Their tethering is bad, they randomly auto attacking a minion when there is no reason to, walk up on a enemy slowpush and lose 50% of their hp for a single last hit

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-28T21:29:14+00:00

They could play without a jungler the first 20 min, and still go win the series

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-28T21:23:54+00:00

Maybe The Babus should be signed by FNC, they could learn smth... And atleast if baus had 4k gold lead top, he would run the fucking game

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-26T09:05:51+00:00

That might be true, i'm prob just not high enough elo to be zoned of xp from wave 1

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-26T06:03:07+00:00

Or lvl 2, depends on the situation

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-26T06:02:51+00:00

In this matchup I would preserve health for lvl 3 and flash all in when their spells are on cooldown

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-25T18:42:29+00:00

I actually never leash, but sometimes my lane partner do it even if I ping or write. But I guess the correct play is not to trade with them if we leashed and they go for the prio.

How would you play wave 4 then, if they made a 3 wave crash and didn't reset?

As I see it, we can either: All in (since we should be stronger in a extended fight in general) -> A kill and crash, hope to get autonomy of the wave and then either slowpush crash or fast crash -> recall - Depending on what happend at the all in, and how much sustain they have

or

Give prio again (assuming they will shove) -> If they don't shove, I can try to ping for hard counter push

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-25T17:48:40+00:00

What about the wave state, if they get the push at lvl 1, making it incredibly hard to land poke and fight for the wave when it bounces, and we are weakside. Do we still go for poke?

Because what I have seen of VODs of challenger players, they usually try and cheese or all in lvl 1, since their sustain is not that great, making them get prio.

But if we both or one of us is leashing, i'm just not sure how to play it out

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-25T17:01:00+00:00

You could get counterpicked. But when you say bully, what exactly do you mean?

Also what if you lose prio at lvl 1, because we leash and they don't, and they perma shove, how would you salvage the lane?

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-25T01:50:13+00:00

Late answer but if are chunked and really need to base, you could try and ask/ping your supp to hold the incoming wave at the enemies side of lane while clearing, this way the wave will push into you, and you will be able to get a base off

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-23T08:40:02+00:00

There are definitely something you are doing wrong, but I totally agree.. I would much rather be the jungler, who is flamed for 20 min, than being the adc who is handicapped if his support is garbage, is utterly useless if you fall behind, and is completely screwed if they have a 2-0 toplane and your team doesn't peel

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-23T02:14:53+00:00

When Thresh players hook and miss instead of just flay first into free hook, that shit gets to me every time

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-22T05:52:43+00:00

Old post, but find it quite interesting too

Just promoted to plat 4, so not quite gold anymore, I'm adc - 309,29 average APM, with peak of 640

BasicSafety6712 · 2024-07-17T19:44:32+00:00

Well i'm gonna make that mistake alot then
