We Made a Challenger Die FIVE Times in Lane - Mid Guide 

dying 5 times in lane doesn't seem to matter when it's hector 😐

I feel like my mid laners are trying this challenge every game

I feel like Hector hasn’t been let out of Skill Capped headquarters for 3 years

Hector: **Breathes** Skill-Capped: "Is that a challenge?"

Hector: *dies 5 times* Hector: "okay it's time to carry" Hectors team agrees to surrender 4/1

Today, we tied Hectors hands behind his back to simulate what low elo players look like, and told him to take 10 second blinks to severely impair his visibility...

Imagine trying your best in your rank game and winning 5/0 on your lane only to find out that Skill Capped is just using you as a test subject for Hector's suffering.

*reads title before clicking on the video* "poor Hector..."

BAUSSS THE SOLO BOLO MASTER, WE ARE SHILLING

Hector: *exists* Skill Capped: Did I just catch you having fun?

7:42 Mordekaiser: "he smurfing with that blue champ lmao"

That Galio is cute af thinking he's doing really well

Next challenge: win without destroying enemy nexus

"In order to prove that good macro is REALLY all you need to win games, we challenged hector to lose a game while trying is absolute best, BUT making every single wrong macro play available." I feel like this might be a good challenge 😉

No joke I really thought they would say, “The point of these challenges is to make Hector as miserable as possible” XD Keep up the great work Skill Capped and Hector.

what about 0/10 Yasuo power spike challenge?

How thebaus gets good cs "Just one more wave"

7:41 lmao the chat, he's smurfing with that BLUE CHAMP

it is not the same to feed a galio as ryze than feeding an assasin like fizz or so

"and we were worried he was *almost* feeling happy again, so we knew it was time" mmmmm the content we love

I love how he is such a great player that he literally struggles inting the Galio 1:24

Appreciate the content!

These videos are so great They get the point across of constant low-elo mistakes, and they are also very fun to watch.

'Tis been a while since I've seen Hector LMAO. Nice video btw

I would love if you did a baus sion replay analysis.

good video! Recap of things i learned 1. play safer if enemy has a big wave near tower and limit test when i have the big wave which gets denied from them if tower dive/aggression is succesfull 2. Analyze the match up and go in to reclaim lead once they do something their champion shouldn't be doing these concepts perfect for me because, i never ff in ranked there was this one time i feed a vayne to 6/0 at 7 min but still got most honored because i stayed positive was was right about the vayne not knowing how to use/keep the lead lol

It's worth noting at 4:53 in that brief tab to items, Ryze is still up 24 CS on his opponent. The gold difference isn't quite as terrible as it could be. They made an excellent point about how important it is to clear the wave--It shows in the comeback. Great video!

Hector: *Exists* Skill-capped: *If life ain't fun, hand over the gun*

Thanks for the guide!🙂 never thought about just not dying any time that you haven’t killed all their minions🙂

I love this channel!!! It's the best!!!!

This has some interesting insight. I'm going to try to use this and hopefully it'll get me out of being hard stuck in my climb. Obviously without inting for no reason, but if I'm gonna die solo might as well take the wave and all.

My teammates: Ah you see, this is a quality death. And those other 5? Also quality deaths

YAY a mid guide, i need these.

This is a great video. I've been struggling to get Silver I (don't laugh, I'm a new player) and I'm always kinda depressed when I'm feeding early or I see my team mates be 0/4 in like 5 minutes. But since a few games I'm telling myself that people are throwing a lot, especially in this elo, so I'm doing my best until the very end. In a game I played recently, the early was awful. I was 0/3 as Miss Fortune ADC and the whole team kept dying too. I decided to power farm, and even if we got an open Nexus, I was level 18 and full built and I managed to help my team get 2 aces in a row, get elder, baron and straight to win with a score of like 8/7/12 or something. It's not great but hey, I went from a full deppressed 0/4 to winning the game against throwing ennemies. I'm happy with that, even if I don't carry. I eventually played in that spirit in the next few games and got a Quadra and then a Pentakill ! Now I won't surrend the game that easily. I've been playing since like April or something (ty Covid-19), and I just learned that having the right mindset is at least 50% of your winning chances. Not always easy, but with /mute all and a focusing mind, it's doable :)

So when are we getting the amputated arms and eyes challenge to show how basic macro fundamentals outshine the need for limbs

Love your content I'll love to sign up for skill capped but I live in Mexico and 12dlls is to much money for me but love your content in RU-vid! When I have money I'll definitely will pay a month to learn all I can

Title: We Made a Challenger Die FIVE Times in Lane - Mid Guide How I read: We made Hector die FIVE Times in Lane - Mid Guide

The skillcapped shield looks like the difficulty selection shield in Halo

champ that struggles when he falls behind, ryze :D what. Let him play an assassin that needs to burst someone. Ryze has great waveclear and always cc/ a bit of DPS. Assassin need to burst someone so items are really important. Letting him play an early/midgame champ makes it way harder to get back into the game since u cant just outscale the enemies.

i want Hector to be in every single game of mine :P i will not mind him trolling tho

Oh, so the 0/10 Yasuo at 5 min was just waaay ahead of us, got it.

Today we reversed Hector's blink pattern! Instead of blinking every 30s, now he can open his eyes for a microsecond every 30s!

This explains to me why my deaths with sett arent that fatal (most of the time), never thought about that.

Thanks to skill capped I did climb up from silver 1 to plat 4 just by watching youtube videos, it does work. Unfortunately, I'm stuck again because I am not able to win the game just by laning and take advantage of enemies mistakes that we can learn from here(I am now doing them quite well), the team fights and mid and late-game macro decisions are so chaotic that just I don't know what to do

5:10 morde pings question mark 5:20 10 seconds later: wp

Can you make a guide on how to lane against champions like Urgot and Garen? I find it really hard to play against those champs

I think this guide not only tells you how to come back from a game, but also how to actually kill. Thanks to this guide, I just noticed that some of my kills are a lot more meaningless than I thought.

Make him do the same video but in diamond 1, rly looking forward !

I would love to see this for jungle

to simulate playing with the poor connection we have placed Hector, inside of a 4x4 wooden box in the middle of the Nevada desert with a laptop and satellite internet to see if he can carry his iron team.

There were definitely some really good tips in this Video, but what I’ve been interested in seeing for a while is what to do when the whole enemy team is fed. Let’s say the enemy Jgl and mid also both play assassins, how would you recover as an adc? I know that if you’re 0/5 in laning phase there are other things to work on, but what could you still do in that situation? If you’re really behind they’ll spam dive you, and if not then it still feels incredibly hard to build up a lead when the enemy team can just push all lanes with you, worst case, being the only member on your team who has watched skill capped. (Just started playing botlane, usually only play toplane which gives me another question, more to that later) Those situations are best avoided, but sometimes it’s already at that point and id really like to see hector carry that (maybe with premades to make it more acceptable). I’ve been playing tanks in toplane for quite a while now, and had rather big success (especially in laning phase), but compared to other characters it feels incredibly hard to do anything when the rest of your team is behind. If I come out of lane and the enemy Vayne (+others) is 10/0 I really feel like it’s over😕

HECTOR ARE YOU OKAY

“We were worried he was almost starting to feel happy again” I’m dying. Poor Hector. He’s always a #mood poor guy XD

How about this challenge but on a champion that doesn't scale well?

CHALLENGER CHALLENGE: Play a tank JG (e.g., Amumu) and duo with a mid lane Nunu "pet" troll that takes most camps and CS, shares any lane XP, and dies to the enemy when there is nothing left to sabotage. The troll obviously ints immediately at 00:15 -- not to be late for pet duty at first buff. Logistical note: You technically should queue as mid and your Nunu-pet duo should queue as JG; in champ select you type, "I am JG" and lock your Amumu. This is simply to replicate a more realistic degree of ally confusion, misplaced blame, and fatalism. You are still playing to win and your Nunu is playing to lose; you are still the JG and he is the mid, but your other three allies are despondent. Nunu votes "Yes" on any ff votes. I.e., play a fairly common plat/diamond game in NA.

He's feeling too happy. Nice timing for a challenge!

I watched this video for fun but suddenly learned a lot

Holy... Didn't knew about this concept yet I play like this (Push then limit test) with Ziggs long ago (Flash/ ghost + Aery) Good to know that, while I'm not doing the optimal choice all the time, I wasn't that wrong

Speechless

Hector is the unsung hero of this chanel.

i wonder if hector is in my games, just not actually completing the challenge

So if you are at their turret its best to wave clear the minions unless you need to freeze ?

*Where* do I see full gameplay?

I use to play Demigod before playing League and I recall one of my very first games of League with the friend that talked me into it where I said, "I know dying is bad, but I don't know how to stop..." Fast forward to the present. I have almost exclusively played Illaoi. Why? I never figured out how to stop dying; instead I figured out how to take more of them with me when I do, lol. 🤣 Seriously, though. I went 0/8 in lane into a Darius, made sure my deaths at least meant something, and came back to start solo killing him when I finally got items. Don't give up; after each death ask yourself, "What is my situation, what is the map state, and what can I do to recover?" Watch how the enemy uses their lead, too. That Darius proceeded to run around the map constantly. Abandoning waves, plates, e.t.c. I knew I'd be able to avoid his focus after laning and get far more CS to balance out, and exceed, his kill lead.

This guide has 1 major flaw yes you can come back 0-5 if you're a challenger in low elo and even sometimes if you opponents mess up horribly, but most of the ppl arent challenger and starting 0-5 like this almost garuntees a loss for those ppl anyways alway love the content as always!

Skillcapped has hector’s family

Hector: Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

Since jungle is such a snowbally role how can you feed 5 kills as a jg and win?

I would like to see this challenge on a champion that isn't a hyper scaling champ. Does not matter if you feed or ryze if you make it to late game. Should try this again on an assasin or just a non hyper carry.

Does this concepts apply to the top lane?

It is impressive, but I’d like to see him try it on someone like jayce/pantheon/kallista/Olaf who doesn’t scale into a late game monster from behind. I find it really hard to get back into the game when I mess up early on one of these champs

Kind of a cop-out really. You're playing a specific strat to minimise the impact of your 5 deaths, then carrying by being better. The reason that low elo players go behind is by either being outclassed in lane (aka dying under their own turret) or by not respecting vision or engages. A low elo player would be down 5 kills AND the farm too. All this does is teach the int-sion strat and then win by being a smurf. If you want this challenge to be better, put a person 2 divisions lower in lane for the first 10 mins with no outside help, then have Hector recover it whilst limiting his mechanics too.

can we get this chall but with an early game champ? I feel like having a champ that CAN'T GET BACK INTO THE GAME hits different

Hector: "oh no" "anyways"

When I'd suggest a challenge for Hector, it would be Bronze Bravery. I'm aware you aren't always gonna be able to win this way, but that's a natural side-effect of a real challenge - you aren't always gonna get a first try win. I'd recommend doing this in low silver or Bronze but Gold might work, too(although you'd have to get pretty lucky with your build).

at this point, my brain changes "challenger" to hector whenever there's these sentences

this is unbelievable.

Hector challenge stream?

This is the best anime comeback I've ever watched.

Is skillcapped admitting to inting. 🤫

The guy's literal embodiment of "don't worry bro, we'll scale"

does hector have a twitch channel or youtube?

Community: DOPA is the best solo que player Hector: Hold my beer

just yesterday in silver I had a 10/0 yone mid and 6/1 jinx, while my adc, still triggered with his last game bought a support item, so we had a fasting senna adc that did no damage and a varus tank support, I went 24/9 as fiora and proved that if ur fed enough on fiora, you can spam Q and win just like on yi

So , what should I do when I fall behind as an early game champ ( talon , fiora , driven ... )

Hector: " I've only shown you 5% of my power. "

This channel should be called "How much can we torture Hector?"

Glad to see Hector again, but I'm curious to see how you can deal with a support taking CS as ADC. I'm still a little tilted from 2 games fighting the supp for the wave and getting forced into pushing the wave into turret.

idea for next hector challenge force him to play with a controller

I wish to see Hector do that same thing with Pantheon. I think that one would be a bit more difficult.

1:34 it's me every time trying to help bot

that Galio was also trying to do the challenge

Can you do the same with Talon or Qiyana?

I'm a jungler, I don't even watch these for the tips. I just like seeing them torment Hector.

Hector after 5 deaths: aight boys, time to use my mouse.

Could you try this in plat, but vs champs like garen/darius/ irelia/ riven. Always feels like them getting ahead results in perma freeze and 100-0 Kills. Advice would be great 😅

An Ahri did the same thing to me yesterday. She would always die at my tower so that there were very few minions for me to kill afterward. Which is why her CS was even with mine even though she was like 1/5. Unfortunately for her I was playing Kassadin.

WE SHILLIN

I love hector
