For example someone all-ins you at a point where you've got 80% chances of winning it or something, while he'd otherwise be perfectly fine if he just kept farming. You wouldn't expect such a risky play coming from a more knowledgeable player aware that he doesn't stand to gain much from it over playing safe; but someone who doesn't know better may think "hey I'm sure I'll win 100% if I all-in now, gogogo!" and catch you off guard, making you misplay it and end up in the 20% where you lose. In the end you died because you were unprepared or not wary enough, but it's not exactly false to state that worse players are more likely to misread a situation and do unexpected stuff. It's just you can't use it as an excuse.  Where are you getting this 80% chance from? There is a very tiny amount of true randomness in the game. If it was that close when he's not even a good player you'd expect a good player to do way better because he'll play it even better. You don't need to wait for a"best opportunity" you just need a "good" opportunity, there's always that balance as the offensive player, of thinking you can all in him, or wait till you know you can all-in him but risk him backing off. However the thing is this based on your knowledge and calculation which indicates you have a pretty good grasp of the situation (i.e not bronze) at the end of the day if you get all-in'd by a bad player and lose you just played shitty and you'd probably lose to a better player too (you're probably playing something you suck at because he's a "bad player") | ||

At times it feels planned and due to you being forced into doing something, other times it feels pretty random. I'm not sure how an allin is a 80% chance like that, though. If it's not 100% there's no sense in taking it, you will have opportunities. There will also be moments during it where you should be able to abort it with an advantage. If not, you shouldn't get into the position where he can risk an allin in the first place. I cannot recall any recent allins that were the type that had a 80% chance of failing or succeeding, or even 50%. I only take allins when I can guarantee a good outcome. Speaking of which, I think I have a bad habit of being too passive / scared / going back to base too often, need to fix that somehow. | ||

junglers are waiting in the bush for you to use your ability or to go and ward, its not a coincidence getting ganked in that situation is just being a shitty player its not random at all | ||

Wait for lane to push? If it pushes in either direction you can ward the brush and if he's in it the guy won't be there to follow up. If it's pushing toward you? Just be patient and the jungler will leave. You can also try to pretend to go for a cs and back off, see if the guy is playing abnormally agressive or easy to hit. Alternatively come back to lane from river and ward it that way. The important thing is to realize theres a counter to everything and you just need to be aware. | ||

Shoot to the side, dude never stops going straight. It leaves me with the worst feeling, because when you look back on it it looks like you're just retarded. | ||

When you see the highlight reels where someone launches a skillshot where someone else is flashing to, most of the time it is because there are pretty much only 2 places where the person can go without just straight up dying to basic attacks. Like, Bischu's not going to complain playing in bronze that people move funky and he misses Nid Q because they'll just straight up die anyways. The information game in league (predicting movement, jungling) is still about making EV plays based on the information set you have and the exclusion set that you know. | ||
