I just hope there's none of the negative emotions that people have been talking about on the past 2 pages As long as you can take criticism to improve you'll be fine. Haven't had an issue with any name calling or non constructive criticisms. So far. | ||

also I roamed too much and without any objectives or commitals in mind so that wasnt good. I should have pushed my lane a bit more to counter leblanc roam and put pressure back mid. also i tried intercepting leblanc one time and that was a decent move except for the fact fiddle was close by and I should have known since he was on the mini just a while ago. i should back off as soon as i did a little damage on leblanc especially since my laser was on cooldown. overall i got some very good advice and it was fun playing. other notes: im pretty happy about one play where i got to blow up cait around the bush between our red and the dragon. sejuani accidentally took the 3rd or 4th blue cuz of the flail. little bit of a bummer. i also missed an ez laser or two. these are just my current notes. may comment more later | ||

We needed help, and I had kept saying it the entire game long, then as soon as the game was over Kiss said that I wasn't communicating how far behind we were. I don't play bot lane much and I don't know what you're supposed to do in that situation. Should we have left the tower earlier? Should I have stayed more passive at the tier 2 tower afterwards? Should I have builded any differently? I understand the logic behind warding the jungle so the enemy bot lane can't push hard. But the issue was by the time the tier 1 tower went down, Cait was so far ahead of me that even 1v1 she could prevent me from getting CS entirely. Trist doesn't really have a way to safely farm from behind, since she has no skillshots to get CS at range and has to push the wave just from autoing. So did I misplay it so badly at levels 1 and 2 that there was no way to come back from it? I felt like my big mistake early on was going in when Monte landed the bubble on Cait rather than disengaging, which forced me to go back early and lose a wave of EXP. That was a big problem. After the tower went down, I really don't know how I should have been playing differently. I was asking for help because I knew that our late game was pretty reliant on me having farm and I could not farm basically at all. I didn't start getting any reasonable CS until Caitlyn left bot lane to go group up and win the game. Should I have kept farming then too? But again, I was not crying. You did not make another player so emotional that they started crying on teamspeak, and I sort of feel like you're lording over me the fact that I got upset. I was getting pretty upset sure, and that's why I left. I didn't want to get more upset, and do something like start crying. I do appreciate the criticism, it's clear that I need to do better against a Cait Janna combo early in the game. I would appreciate it more if it didn't come with such an attitude. I've made that exact same problem when I played nami with uhh... i think it was vowels: OOH BUBBLE LANDED TIME TO GO HAM, both of us forgetting/not realizing how far behind we were (even though it was before first recall) Then I died. I'm scared of playing Nami lanes right now, she's really hard. D: After you lose the tower, freezing the lane deep on your side and farming is a good way to do some damage control. Your support has freedom to roam if you're farming somewhere safely, and if Cait/Janna are trying to pressure you without their team they're much easier to gank. There are still going to be times where you need to go group, but try to keep an eye on the minimap for big waves of farm whenever there isn't action that needs you RIGHT NOW. | ||

Mostly learned a lot from enemy mistakes, had a huge discussion after game about jungling pressure, and what junglers can get away with. I got away with a lot things I shouldn't of that game. -Enemy team should have definitely punished our team with a level 1 invade. Their level 1 was straight up stronger. -Also shouldn't of gotten Trundle first blood, but got lucky cuz Vlad ate fatty turret shots. -Probably could have came bot a few more times, especially after I got Trundle a 3-0 start. There was no need for me to keep going top, it was silly. Especially since it could have transitioned into far better Dragon control (which was really poor by me, I definitely should have gotten some wards that game, but was winning so hard I didn't really feel like it was necessary). -Need to work on smite mechanics, got dragon smited from me (Not even mad; perks of being a Curse fan). As far as game mentality goes, especially for these in-houses. It's okay to be bad. That's the point of the entire thing. It's to show how bad you are, and bounce ideas on how to improve. rey mysterio confirmed | ||

Jannall - Rank and division Silver V - If you are a lowbie (Gold or below), include what position you would be interested in working on. (List two) Support and ADC - For each role, identify two champions you wish to improve on Zyra, Lulu Vayne, Caitlyn | ||

- Ingame name TwinsenDude - Rank and division Platinum II Dunno how often these things happen or how you guys get in contact (do you just message in-game? Or do you PM on TL? etc), but I'd like to try some time. I'm usually pretty good at calmly explaining how to correct mistakes (if I haven't been berated XD) when I play with friends that are receptive to criticism. Is streaming allowed during these games? | ||

I honestly don't think it's a good idea. If people can't read/skim 2-3 pages behind, then they aren't going to put in effort to actually learn anything from the inhouses anyways. | ||

 .A lot of mismanaged timing, map movements, etcs. Also very sloppy decision making in fights. Areas to note for self: I shouldn't be picking champions that I'm completely unfamiliar with during these IH's because it really lopsides the game. I have to be more willing to just "go for it" rather than take the safer calls. If I die in IH's, I can be more familiar with my champ's limits. Game 1 notes: As Eve, I still need to look for more opportunities I can create space for my team. I gambled a bit going top instead of mid early on when it came to a hard camp which was a mistake in hindsight because kassadin was completely ungankable post 6 and really stomped our Gragas and Vlad ended up dc-ing during my camp top anyway so I got nothing done there besides "slow down" a kennen which pretty much accomplishes nothing. I also wasted a lot of time bot when bot was already ahead. I could've either just forced the turret earlier to open up drake or I could've just power farmed. Even though I'm trying to fix the "too passive" playstyle I've developed, I still need to keep in ind, I should take farm when the game allows me to. Game 2 notes: Honestly looking over the game again in hindsight, the game was pretty much over when I had completely incorrect runes and started dorans blade. I was way too low from both the first red and the second red coming out of both at half health or less with zero pots. This pretty much made me a non factor for Elise's strongest points. If I started machete 5 pots, I would've been full off my clear and also had the magic pen/movement speed page instead of an attack damage/life steal page. I also botched the fight mid because of unfamiliarity with my champs burst but also because the poor clear left me very under powered. (I was lvl 3 to Zac's 4 and Jayce's 3). I also took way more convoluted pathing when going for ganks in attempts to flank when I could've just walked through lane and just pressured, wave cleared, etc. All in all, trying to adjust certain aspects of my style has made me play "worse" than a lot of my previous games as a jungle but hopefully once I can adapt more aggressive plays into my game, it can improve my game long term. | ||
