if it differs you can time it but you will rarely know, as in if they do a non standard path, you would have to have their buffs warded. If they are doing a standard path, it is the same timing for the first 2-3 blues every game unless you delay it by trying to contest. And a few seconds difference from a rough estimate is not gonna matter. I'm all about tryharding but I just find it funny when people are like OMG 7:15 EB. Timing buffs in general is also very overrated because it's not the timing part that's hard but what to do with that information, and more often than not people will fuck it up.

Timing gives your team more information, even if it may be slightly redundant.

It's about generating a habit. In gymnastics practice, I do the same mental/breathing routine before every single turn I take. This goes for when I'm just working a particular skill, or if I'm about to practice a routine. It helps keep me in the same mindset throughout all of my training. Then, when I get to a meet, I, again, do the same mental/breathing routine before I salute.

Consistency and success come through repetition. If you're used to timing every single buff, regardless of how significant you think it might be, it becomes second nature and you won't even think about doing it when it's necessary.

not sure why people tryhard time the first few enemy blues when its the same timer EVERY GAME

Because there is no reason not to? In the rare circumstance it becomes important you will be glad you did that.

There's no reason to time something you already know without writing it down?

yea but at the cost of looking like a tryhard loser, i think it's obvious what matters more.

A tryhard winner*
Also, I don't see why it should matter how you look like, unless you're very insecure about yourself and let the opinion of random people on the internet matter

I think passion and trying your hardest to win makes you look good, so even if that were your goal I still wouldn't see the point.
Case in point that Navitar video was sexy as fuck

everyone knows this game is a popularity contest where the player who exudes the least tryhardedness but also happens to win the game is the coolest kid on the block.

it's the same way in golf, and probably all other sports. creating rituals makes it so that you don't actually have to think about the trivial stuff, so instead you can focus 100% on the more complicated stuff

yesterday in one of the gambit gaming games people were wondering why Shy or Flame ( don't remember if it was against frost or blaze) didn't use his tp with Jax. Jatt said it was because the tower fell and someone quoted wiki I think where it stated that you tp anyway.

Just had the same situation ingame and can confirm that killing the tower indeed cancels your your tp =(

And that last voice is an asshole anyways, so we disregard him.

Yeah they changed that in a recent patch. Don't remember exactly when but the first time that happened to me was a real WTF moment.

People are also very good at misconstruing facts by presenting numbers. I seen plenty of people that get massive help from their junglers and then assume that they personally outplayed their opponent because they have better stats. Carries that get saved by their support 3 times in a row and then continue to "carry" the game.
My point is that sometimes the numbers at the end of the game lie. Which also explains why all supports suck in every single game. Just look at the numbers. I can prove it. Lowest amount of kills, bad k/d ratio and don't get me started on the horrendous last hitting. It looks like as if they are not even trying (Hint: sarcasm).


Yeah man, my lifetime Lulu stats are 0/75/312 with like 30 creeps per game. I'm such a baddie.

But srsly, 30 games and no kills? WTF.

I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Ok I see. NA actually went down, this isn't client sided.

You seriously got no kills on lulu? You are bad. I always get lots of kills when my adc dies, or pussies out. Lulu does so much damage.
