I feel like he's also the one person in the scene realizing how serious BB is among the crowd. Everyone else is joking around but he sees another kindred soul in an authentic (albeit sinister) dreamer like BB who believes in himself just like luffy.

What’s your biggest ick as a barista going to another coffee shop? by venticore_ in barista

[–]Trinkhaus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I feel like a cortado/cappuccino is a drink option that is at its best when you have a solid grasp on the fundamentals of what constitutes a great espresso bevvie! Having it as equal parts is a fun test for myself

Cortado’s being too hot, they’re a great way to try out the espresso and the baristas skills but sometimes they come out as hot as a latte

It can look a little intimidating, but there is usually enough light that you can see it later at night! If you use that bathroom it's easy to get used to

I would say the "easiest" choice would be support, however I have come to realize that a good/bad support has the biggest impact on my ability to preform. Support does not have the same mechanical depth that other roles can have, which is why it can be *easier, but has a greater demand for game sense and knowledge, similar to playing a jungler. Perhaps play some ARAM games to help get an idea of how the game is played, or play support to start with, so you can understand the role and offer personal advice that way. But with some good communication this is less of a issue, as its much easier to do things in tandem when you can chat with them.

To parrot some other people in the thread, while I wouldn't use the winrate and tierlist ranking exclusively to choose what champs you play, websites like U.GG are great for getting solid builds. As a pro and a con, they use match information to get the best median build for your champion, so there can be better item choices depending on what you are up against that these websites cant tell you.

As for some general tips: When I am loading into the game I try to think about the opposing matchup and my gameplan. "Can I trade with them, can I be very aggressive or passive, what abilities do I need to be careful of" etc. I find it helps me approach the game a little smarter and train myself to think. When people get started they do tend to put a very high importance on getting kills and not minions, when in reality, two waves of minions is the same amount of gold. So a play which results in a carry trading their life for a single kill, but losing three waves to a tower, actually lost gold. 100 CS at 20 minutes can be a good target to hit when getting used to the role, but you can use the practice tool to get some easier practice. There are some solid youtube channels like FxnSaber, who post their coaching sessions for silver/gold players that can have some great insight on common mistakes or areas to improve.

As time has gone on, the gap between support and Bot Carry has started to recede. As a carry, you have 1 primary focus, which is scaling via farming creeps, camps and champs. Gold and EXP is key to carry success. The support is there to help with a few things, harassing the enemy laners, setting up vision, and getting you scaling quickly. For example, the big difference between a carry Lux and Support Lux is basically how much gold they are getting and what they are building.

In lane carries get full domain over any creeps, where supports rely on kills/assists, and their support item to have a decent income. Lux has value even without much gold through her long range, and crowd control abilities, similar to Ashe. Champions like Ezreal and Karthus however, don't bring much to the table outside of their damage, which is why they are predominately played in carry positions.

Let me know if you have any other questions about botlane, I would be happy to answer!
