False. A non optimal fight can still end up turning for you if you get lucky. Obviously there are degrees, but in solo q you generally want to be engaging in 5v5 and hoping for luck over 4v5 and hoping that your team isnt stupid enough to get caught, which they inevitably arent.

yeah, the only time I just ignore non optimal fight is if I have a hero that I actually think I can do something with under my tower or something. It's usually best just to try to do what you can in the fight.

Interesting video by Colbycheeze. Pretty much an accurate description on how games can go after a dominating laning phase. People just don't know how to team fight or how lane/objectives/map control work so they try to rush to win and gets destroyed in the process.

Also shows how solo pushing can be devastating to your team, because they don't know how to NOT get caught or start a fight and then blame the guy pushing.

Interesting?

Just like in the first one, it is HIS fault that he assumes that his teammates are 2400 elo. He plays suboptimally. He blames others...

This colbycheeze person is so irritating.

Wait, you can't relate to people who blame their allies for their losses?

I can't relate to people posting videos of themselves making mistakes and blaming others and having slogan as "people often make mistakes but blame others".


Well, I don't wanna comment on the play in the video, but it's a little strange to me colby should feel so free to criticize. I've played with him three times - the first was a duo queue with my friend, he fed and then told my friend he was gonna report him and it was gonna be on stream after getting called bad - so that made him memorable. Second time, he was on my team again... fed. Third time, he was on the enemy team... fed. He's honestly looked awful to me every single time I've seen him play.

I just played with him. He won mid with Annie, though I wasn't watching closely so I'm not sure if jungle helped a lot or what. But then we dominated so much after laning phase that the enemy team surrendered very early, maybe 20 mins. So I didn't get to see any of his late game calls.

Of course, they then see you moving towards them and turn to engage anyway. If they have any map awareness that is.

You don't accidentally win a non-optimal fight, you can win it if it's sub-optimal but the conditions are right for a turn-around. You can tell the situation by the minimap and who's about to get crushed.

Better decision-making. Less excuses.

Even from that video alone you can tell he made plenty of stupid decisions, like in his explanation that his team traded 4 for 2, because he charged in alone at the end. Stupid decision, why feed away yourself too for a wussy two, he was clearly out of position to start the fight (yes, HE was out of position) and in that case don't piss away a red buff and do something productive.

Another big part of the decision is whether your team will benefit more from you going in and cleaning up an extra kill or 2 or getting a tower. If your death is inevitable, but you know you will be able to kill off enough of them to prevent a baron or an inhibitor push, its worth it to give up the ace.

Doesn't work, my mid opponent left for the top lane to gank it as it was really pushed up, I pinged the river, typed "b" like 20 times, and the player didn't react and died. Then "Do you expect me to read the chat while fighting?" So yeah.

Poor caller. Morde is mainstream now. No wonder he was playing annie. He is no doubt lost and confused right now. Someone buy the man yorick so he can play a properly indeh champion again.

Counter to Akali as Nid mid: Start out with Dring. Give fb before minions. Die again. Sell Dring, go Boots 3. Still die cause Akali is 6. Real!
