"instead of wasting time hitting the tower, hector efficiently handed morgana a bunch of gold" bro stop flaming hector my god 💀

7:20 nice pro tip, will be sure to use it!

I think the cooldown tip should be repeated for low elo support. Never punishing a missed hook, ezreal e forward, etc and just giving the enemy bot the time needed to get the ability again

7:31 Thank you for bringing that up to my intention. I always felt like I played well when I invade the enemy jungle and die there after a successful gank, but I was confused by the chat which often asked for reports. Glad to know that I am actually climbing well with this tactic

To assume your adc is not going to die under tower when roaming as a support is not how it works down here in low elo.

As a non-smurf low elo player that description of smurf queue made me really glad it exists

7:38 commentary....brilliant. Will try the same in my games !

Really appreciate the simple yet practical tip of googling the Enemy Champion. many "pro tips" require much more knowledge than any beginner could have.

Around a year ago I unsubbed from this channel because the quality of the tips and videos was going downhill and honestly wasn't worth it. Just watched the last three videos and I'm pretty pleased that you guys' are doing great videos again, GJ.

So, I'm an ADC main. I know that most people go Long Sword now to get to the mythic faster, but nobody ever told me that the item is actually better in the early game in most games. Also, yeah, I see a lot of supports trying to roam at really bad timings. Because I am also bad, I typically stay and try to catch what farm I can safely, only for the enemy bot to run at me, ignore the wave entirely, and chase me back to my tower, typically killing me in the process.

The problem is not the laning phase for me. It's mostly about the mid and late game. How do I deal with a team, thats not grouping when they should? Junglers not taking objectives? Really fed hyper carries? When should I splitpush? When should I defend the base?

As a jungle main, when i smurf i always take turret plates with my teammates because i dont trust them especially when i know that enemy jungle is coming or any other lane is mia. Sometimes i just back in a bush near turret. But i’d rather not let them die for no reason than get them tilted for not being there. Besides low elo is so unpredictable that sometimes you’ll see a mordekaiser randomly tp bot at 5 minutes or enemy jungler anticipating and invade rather than taking their camps, so when you come to check the spawn timers you find a 20 cs kayn at 8 minutes just chilling in a bush near gromp waiting for you. Idk, its nice to point out that there are a lot of things to do besides taking turret plates but from experience sometimes its the best play especially in terms of mental control (xd true believer that minimizing opportunities for your team to tilt at you is game winning)

I love how all of these tips are like 10 tips in one and based off expectations versus realization in low elo. For example, in top lane Morde losing that lane had nothing to do with him not losing teleport because he had no concept of wave management in the first place. The assumption that he could have teleported back and held a freeze consequently ending the lane for Hector is predicated on the fact that you assume this Morde knows how to manage a wave and freeze it for multiple waves; however, based on the first couple of minutes he clearly doesn't. Additionally, he had a chance to freeze the wave without the teleport and instead choose not to hold the freeze. Similar story in mid lane. Though I actually agree with the tip about taking advantage of cooldown windows, you follow up a great tip with an example of hector "getting easily zoned by the Vlad" when in reality by the time Hector was able to rotate to Herald the Graves was already dead and enemy top laner is there while Garen is chilling in tri bush. Even if Hector had Tibbers and Ignite, he was going to get "Zoned" by the fact that its 3v1 and the enemy Trynadmere is level 8 with ulti still available. I don't know each individual players score, but overall the enemy team has 8 kills and Hector has 1 kill so I am 100% confident in saying that he isn't going to 1v3 the enemy team. For the jungle tip, there are so many caveats to this tip that you neglect to mention. For starters you show Hector getting punished for counter jungling instead of assisting with plates because his team has extremely poor vision and he has no idea where the enemy jungler is. This was a terrible play and I appreciate you showing it, but you at no point make a mention of why it was a bad play. Sure it results in hector dying and giving a shutdown (although giving the shutdown to the support isn't that bad, would have been a lot worse if that gold had gone to Yi), but why was the play bad. For starters, he finishes the play with no mana and half life. But more importantly, there is zero vision on the map. Not only does he have no idea where the jungler and bot lane are, but mid lane is also MIA. He could be walking into 4 people in that jungle. Then to top it off he sees the enemy drop herald and instead of running, he still decides to go after Gromp. Lastly, for ADCs. You say it is a mistake to take Doran's Blade instead of other options, and maybe it is. But your rational for why it is a mistake in this example is because the Jhin sits there and repeatedly eats Sivir Qs. The poor play of repeatedly eating poke is the thing that needs to be fixed. Sure in the long run having a long sword is more beneficial to getting your items quicker, but this Jhin is just eating Sivir Boomerang like its an all you can eat buffet. He would have chugged through those potions and still been in the same predicament he was in anyways. The additional potions would have as useful as putting a bandaid on a severed limb. It's stopping some of the bleeding, but dude is still missing his fucking arm. The Jhin could have started the game with a finished GaleForce advantage and dude still would been behind because of the way he is playing the game.

Can you do something like this but for support?? like a video showing only when you should punish depending on items and lane/wave states, but for bot lane those are rare imo

ok the one with morgana it was a good one

i would LOVE to see a video about cull.... bausffs stands by it, but fogged for example says its terrible.

I don't main adc, but I think that especially for jhin, buying doran's blade first is a huge mistake, but you don't have to buy a long sword, because jhin's base damage is probably the biggest from adcs (without counting draven), but the problem with him is his range. He gets stomped by adcs like cait, but he can utilise this problem with higher movement speed

I would do this as support, the problem is that the adc there often doesn't recall but tries for plate, gets caught and dies

Is D blade relevant in other roles then adc ir support? (Obviously not jg)

I have a subscription to skill capped and I may just be missing it, but what do you do when your teammates are spamming ff@15? I feel that tilts me more than anything is when my team surrenders a winnable game.

Would it be possible to provide a link to this video on the skillcapped platform? I want to watch it there instead of here, but this is where I find it, because of the youtube algorithm :)

1:45 he flashed into the morde Q. could have easily killed him there and win the lane minute 3

Long Sword start is nice but you should consider looking at the enemy runes before you decide whether to start it. If the enemies are running Dark Harvest or even Hail of Blades you could be dying a lot due to their aggressive runes. Not just that but the new patch gives even more value to Triumph so a DH and Triumph user will probably just snowball against a squishier opponent.

Hey you guys actually showed low elo rng players killing Hector for making a "good" decision. For once. That's a nice change of pace, you all usually just pretend like that doesn't happen. Seriously, it makes your advice look more trustworthy if you're willing to admit it won't always work even for you. Also, I hate potion start. Way too much of a money sink that relies on coming out of early game better off for it. You can just get a doran's shield and get much better value over time on most champs, and it won't go away after the first few minutes of the game.

LMAO didn't expect them to be fully serious when delivering the joke of him dying to morgana.

YEAH ! That works but only if rest of the team know how to play and there is no troll. If you have darius top 0/12 you can go roam with support and only fed more. And a lot of examples when I play my best and 1 or 2 trolls lost the game.

Ahhh smurf queue. Just had a game where there was an enemy Shaco with a 68% wr over 60 games. Good player. My Bard was a 70% wr bard over 50 games. Also good player, but ADC didn't use heal when he wanted her to so he trolled the rest of the game. Fun times.

If I ever auto fill jungle, I just need to die to the enemy support

Imagine if there where voice coms in soloq. You could just ask/tell your adc what to do. Instead of trying to predict the mind of a bronze

I just watched the old version of this video and wondered why I saw the same video in my recommended…

I like how enemy jungler punishes nasus for staying but his ally doesn't come to break the freeze

hiktor got a twitch channel ?

Love you hector

7:48 Lmfao

Why not start cull if an adc wants early gold?

1:45 "burning his flash to get away with his life" what if he just flashed sideways and used auto q? Or even the same without flash?

Can you start putting timestamps. Thanks

Pro tips Play on bronze elo to crush newbies and unsuspecting guys

What was the joke supposed to be? 4:09

Pls do one for wild rift

I HATE SMURF QUE AAAAA both my plat 3-2 accounts are in there getting turbo trolled ugh so unfun - mains is master, smurfed some off roles. really really unfun ngl

You could have just spectated games and narrate over them, but instead you had your challenger guy go into low elo and add to the smurf problem

McBaze part lmao

I really don't know what joke you left on the table, about Hector switching from Morde to Annie. Am I a dumb-dumb?

Nasus with Sheen is full build. Good job Riot.

If nami don't shove the wave cait can't crash and deny enemy bot gold end exp. If they back and you don't have time to crash it's okey, but in that case nami could help deny the wave. In this situation is win-win because they kill kayle but imo you should almost always crash when you are able to and setup freeze when you back to lane, to deny even more

2:00 if he q mord they win that xD

Can we talk about Hector Graves @ 7:44. Graves (Hector) allows his bot lane to take plate gold but then dies to enemy Morg giving her nearly 1K in shutdown gold. How was that efficient? Did I miss something??

"Our skill-capped challenger player " what a way to spin a title lol

Is no one gonna talk about how hard he trolled there on his nasus with the Nunu gank? He moved very poorly and missed 1-2 auto attack opportunities, flashes away from Morde at 100 hp while his q just came back from cooldown and Morde had everything on cooldown. That right there was a guaranteed kill for him, but he decided to flash away and grief his nunu…

dblade is better now since every healing rune was nerfed and ravenous was removed. SO u go dbalde for the omnivamp it gives . 3 pots is only good when u have heavy poke and u need pots to suatain in lane

So the adc tip was, buy a different starting item...

I WAS THE NUNU IN THAT GAME OH MY GOOOD

7:38 LMFAO

Ah yes, Hector's torment continues.

how is nunu a troll pick :(

Hey skill capped...I canceled my subscription and i diddnt got my money back what can i do ?

what is that intro...

Second

Okay, not to be a dumbass but.... is this Ez's VA???

First

Hector sounds like a basement dweller

Last one assumes ur adc isnt a complete inting idiot which is like 90% of low elo

Hector must be sick of your bullshit tasks from every week.

Once again Skill Capped just proving to me, that I'm a diamond player, who's in Silver unjustified. Born into the wrong Elo!!! xD I'm so stuck, but please don't send your step brothers.

Every video you complain about smurfing I down vote
