Average climbing jungle. Struggling with carry things like kindred graves. Dedicated to learning now. Amumu j4 brand three trick. 70% wr amumu over like 30 games. I'm not perfect ofc but not having to think about my kit at all and just ook ook flash ult their back line while already up 2k gold up because exquisite baron dragon and farming feels so good
Brand J4 aren't that easy, rather in the middle I would say. Keep it up! Fair warning tho, as you climb enemies will get better and you'll hit a wall at some point. Thats what makes and breaks players.
Great advice mate! Keep it up like this and you’ll be popular in no time. Another thing though, you might want to have a light ring since it’s so dark. +1 Elo for your mom
Great vid !! wasn't epecitng such quality for so few views. I'll sub. Would you have recommendation for simple junglers? I main Khartus / Mordekaiser / WW but I have a hard time carrying with those Note : Hate Amumu, boring champ + i'm Gold/ silver
🥰 thanks! Shyvana, Udyr, Lillia, Zac, Vi, Volibear, Fiddlesticks... some of these might require some initial practise and youtube research (Fiddle, Zac), but once you've picked them up it should be relatively easy to progress. Unfortunately, most moderate champions are quite offmeta right now, but if you want you can look into Briar, J4, Hecarim or Nunu as well.
I’m ngl, I like your channel a lot. I subbed to skill capped but they’re so unreliable, this game I found to be very opinionated. I like your perspectives and opinions on the game. Please keep it up and keep uploading videos frequently or consistently but high quality (as in like quality over quantity), I don’t mind, because I’ll be watching all of it, I’ve been dying to watch more RU-vidrs on league that teach me things. And what’s the coaching thing you were talking about?
I appreciate it! Gonna try out some more stuff and see how it does. I'll definitely make more videos, trying to get to 1 per week for now... I offer 1 on 1 (paid) coaching lessons on my Discord: discord.gg/Rf5xSHjd
Did you consider that you might just be a CHAD on Caitlyn? I've made the experience that, while Cait is much easier to pick up, getting proper value out of her kit is very unintuitive and Cait players rarely know what they did wrong. On Draven this is more obvious. So even if he's super weird at first, once you get good at catching Axes and proper W management, it'll become much easier to improve.
@@ShoCoaching heh, I think Caitlyn is just somewhere around jhin and ezreal for me. But Caitlyn has much more burst than these 2 usually, while she is more consistent than draven
Hey that was pretty competent video! Well done! However, I do prefer the explanation that I think LS uses about why you should be playing low mechanical champions if you want to climb. It is not only about understand what you champion should be doing and not doing, when it is vulnerable or not like you explained and understanding the game better but also not messing up because of mechanical requirements. You can understand the game and the champion really well but if you are playing Thresh and you constantly miss hooks that will cause you to lose game. If you are playing a champion that mechanically is difficult to mess up (like Sona, you can basically only miss your ult and its quite difficult to miss that) you'll have less chances to lose because you cannot click that well yet. :D
I don't disagree with that. Playing Amumu/Annie/Sona is the fastest way to climb. However, it doesn't work for everybody.. It's a spectrum. Thresh is one of the hardest supports, Sona is one of the easiest. That doesn't mean you HAVE to play Sona, you can also play Nami for example. It will make it a little harder, but that won't slow you down more than being extremely bored. That's what people don't really get, 50% of champions in League are "elo inflated", not just 5 per role. The question for these players is usually "Do I play Zed or Annie" and they hate Annie, so they play Zed. They'd probably enjoy Sylas though.
@@ShoCoaching low skill champs are strictly superior because mechanics don't win games, macro does. People who are hardstuck in sewage of elo can't climb because they can't macro at all, not because they miss 60% of their thresh hooks. Thresh ult + E is way more important in a teamfight and W saves adc way easier than any Q to begin with. The difference between bad and good thresh is that good thresh won't waste his W to tank minions before you walk back to lane or something equally stupid, noobs in general don't understand that missing an ability is worse than not using it at all. Thresh and adc is under tower because of poke heavy lane, thresh that has his Q up is a threat that can fail entire tower dive, thresh that misses his Q prematurely is a sitting duck ready to be killed. Noobs spam their abilities. And yet low elo turds will be more focused and get tilted easily by missing their Q than they will by focusing on vision and when they maybe should rotate mid instead of being useless all game. I bet any competent high elo thresh can win lanes and games in silver by not putting any points in Q at all, because good positioning and not wasting your flash and keeping it for teamfights that matter is more important than hitting your Q which is just an "easier" way to make thresh work. Removing the need for skillfull mechanics removes the cognitive burden from low elo players low level brains, if they were intelligent, they'd have noticed this on their own and done well even on a high skill champ that they find hard to execute, because champions have 4 abilities and you only need to hit one stun/root/heavy slow on enemy team's ADC to win the entire fight. That being said, renekton knowing how to position out of vision and flash + dash + stun on enemy carry and thresh who knows how t o position out of vision and flash + protobelt + R + E, then W on tank/toplaner to make them stick on enemy adc is quite literally effectively the same thing, yet low elo players will not find the correlation and in fact will try to argue otherwise, because muh pro play thresh threading the needle Q through entire enemy team onto ADC.
I've recently picked up Gwen Jungle and yes basically simplifying the game for yourself helps so much Gwen doesn't want to invade and only gank when it's super free. So I can focus on perfect full clears and how to carry in her strong late game and I feel like I'm jumping leaps in improvement Why am I telling you this? Because I used to be an Aphelios OTP on the verge of quitting
That's awesome! Gwen is such a good example, because she isn't a completely mindless champ. Playing fights properly and using your E to jump walls, to get into good angles definitely requires skill. You just don't have overly complex pathing in the early game, which makes that part a LOT more consistent. Glad to hear it, good luck!
I also play Gwen jungle and people call me a troll pick :) I love her man. She's beautiful, she has a great design and her kit is so fun to use. Yes, some might say it's an AP version of Master Yi, but I completely disagree. She can fall behind very easily, whereas a champion like Yi can easily steal 3 kills in a team fight and buy that 2nd item he was missing before the enemies.
@@alexale5488 Yi and Gwen are nothing alike. Gwen is pretty cool, I agree! :D Yi does also have some hidden difficulty when you get to the higher ranks tho
@@LukeChudoba Ikr.. but a proper keylight (ring lights suck with glasses..) costs quite a bit, so I think I might wait on that... I can probably just tweak the settings a bit.
Right now I just really mastered Zilean. Such a fun kit to play with. One of the unique champs that make people say that League is also a game of how tiltproof you are. Yeah Zilean exposes this on both sides very equally And right now I have only been thinking of his E His ultimate plus the inbuilt Stun (if u hit it that is, also one of the fun things about zilean is getting that double q to hit feelings of pure bliss if u get it right) And if all of it weren't enough he also has this sweet passive that just has this magic around it that everybody just really appreciates getting a lvl up from you. This is important because so many supps miss this point of what it means to be a supportive role. he sometimes takes me back to the old WoW days where everything i did was buff people all day and have them just be so thankful and happy. But the downside to Zilean is how terrible his model hasn't ever been updated I think so yeah it is a bloody mess and his skin options are limited to 'Haha he has long Beard let's make a cashgrab Santa skin' or 'He looks arabic *puts turban on his head* yeah this is the real shit' (IMO just a racist skin i am not gonna lie) So that's it folks. just me rambling about a champ of which some people still fail to recognize how his ult works (fucking hell just die already!! Bloody hell you took to long for dying and now u low HP u dumb idiot and there he goes jumping back in AFTER WAITING OUT MY ULT TO WEAR OFF JUST TO PING ME AGAIN WHEN HE DIES FROM IT. people literally spampinging me when i know that i won't die and just go for the R cheeky resurrect (using R on zilean is most of the times the better choice because so many people forget I even exist and just afk after the resurrect thinking they dead or did not consider they could've been saved beforehand so they just give up)
by any means. Play the fun champs and just entirely forget about the climb and be at peace of mind mates. (sorry if this ain't belongs under a coaching video but man u made a point there)
@@ShoCoaching I played 4 years of HotS before to have an easier MOBA so I can get into LoL and I had an understanding of my role basically. Zilean seemed like a very well designed champ to learn mastering. First I ALWAYS messed up that double E is an option or that i can e myself (or an enemy) to land my q's easier which meant that most of the time i only used my e once and not twice. he was also great because i was out of position very often and he has so much escape and survivability options like e and r. after a while i learned how to r in enexpected situations or better said i got the timing right after a while. today i know even how to use my passive at the right time and who to give it to when i have it up (never use passive lvl 1 for example i always wait for lvl 2 to get a quick lvl 3 and can also hit the enemy more at lvl 1). But and which is why i am still low elo i guess but KNOW that if I improve in these things i will be able to get out of my rank is for example still being bad at positioning myself so sometimes i cannot reach a person in time for my r or am even out of range and that usually leads to instant flame (explain to someone you asked to engage and save with ult that you couldn't ult because of ability range.. yeah it can get ugly in that aspect or that my adc runs off and dies and i didn't look map happens way to often) But why I still play him to this day is because he is such a strong roaming champ and if you can land both your Q's and also slow or speed up (or why not both?) then you are an unstoppable force who can easily end the game 2/0/25. He is the only champ i (occasionally) manage to have 0 deaths with. But these days I play Jhin. His kit is easy IMO and is also S+ tier in my elo currently which is a nice bonus. I also play Jinx sometimes but died often and had an overall worse winrate than with Jhin. Thanks to your video I get why that is the case (I just rewatched it for the quote 'I know what a Challenger Yasuo is SUPPOSED to look like' is a really REALLY strong advice. In the time of two weeks I climbed brackets in my elo only because I watched some Rank 1 Jinx (NA Server) videos to see what she is really like and what I may be missing (good advice like having your rocket up before entering a teamfight or that she has an early weak game and so on) Same helped me to play against Smolder (after learning he has an execute I adapted my playstyle and won lane against him) So yeah I am still inexperienced at the game even tho I am playing for two years now. So I am not really upset that I am still in Bronze. I mean just now I am learning to make my own builds and adapt them little by little with items and runes. IMO learning something new every day and getting it into muscle memory is such fun that it keeps driving me toward the game. Anyway thank you for your video(s) I would recommend them but I know nobody who plays League
im probably psyhopath... i started with nocturne top in sezon 5 with full as build with old botrk (3 or 4% current healt dmg per hit) tbh i think it was good decision bcs of knowledge i gain
As a main support, playing enchanters, i'm so frustrated in ranked that i've thought i can't climb because of my champion pool. So i've learned Akali ☠️ (and climbed a little bit higher) But then i watched a challenger OTP sona, and she were doing weird full AP build as support. So, you say the champion doesnt matter about climbing, but even challengers, play full AP enchanter in low elo. I deduce the basic healing enchanter can't get us out of Iron, bronze unless you prove it. Lastly, i climbed 2 division in bronze, thanks to Akali, so i think no matter the elo, a hardstuck player will climb higher if they play a hypercarry, a bruiser, mage, assassin, instead of a stupid healing bot that is going to heal people with lower iQ. I have subbed for you mum !🎉❤
Maybe you wont climb as quickly playing Sona as you will playing Akali - but you will climb higher. Akali's complexity means you will make more mistakes on her - which will be punished harder by better player.
By the way im literally that lunatic, im playin sup xerath and pyke, jungle xin, it just feels like you get rewarded for your skill. When i played sona soraka for a few games i got so sick i wanted to puke, these champions literally play themselves, there is 0 fun in that for me
Not everyone finds playing Garen as hellish as you make it sound and if the options are Pyke or Garen and it makes no difference in terms of fun, Garen is ofc better. What goes for you doesn't go for everyone, that's why I'm explaining the concept, not telling ppl to play Garen. You're using your personal experience to tell ppl what to do, that's not great, as many people enjoy maining Janna or Ahri. Your point about adapting to the enemy comp is nonsense tho and I think the video makes clear why. Adapting just cheats you a few wins short-term, then you gotta learn multiple champs at the same time. To climb, balance as little champs and as simple champs, with still having fun. If you are climbing despite playing a lot of wildly different champs on different roles, you would climb faster not doing that. Unless you don't enjoy it at all. Nightmare difficulty. Would you mind linking your profile for reference?
@@ShoCoaching I don't tell people not to play garen, I tell people to play what they have fun with, because league is not a job and not a sport for 99.9% of players and it's not worth playing unfun for elo number you didn't deserve anyway. And I believe playing 3-4 wildly different champions actually makes you improve much faster because you get to see their perspective and people in gold can't learn a champion just by observing it. And adapting to draft is literally not cheese it's a part of meta gameplay, if you created options learning different champions you deserve to have advantage via choosing the best one for each scenario. It's a viable route to climb, especially for less mechanically strong players. I don't say it's the most math efficient way to get elo, but it will be the most fun one once you done the prep
@@user-uj2mt6nv2g That's good then, I also tell people to play what they have fun with. Playing 3-4 wildly different champs doesn't make you improve as fast, you can only play 1 champion at a time, so while you might learn more about the game broadly, you won't be able to put as much time into actual champion mastery. With that logic, one might also play a new champ every game. For inexperienced players I do recommend this by playing ARAMs, but not when trying to climb. A low elo player won't learn what the game looks like out of a Pykes perspective. If they knew what Pyke is supposed to do, they wouldn't be Silver anymore. That's why you gotta get to a high level first and fully understand what it means to be good at a champion. If you play 3 champions and are Emerald 2 because you can adapt to the comp, playing one champion on the same exact skill level would mean you are lower rank than Emerald 2. Your adaptibility will give you an advantage in some games. But once you reached your peak, you will have to improve. Improving will now be more difficult, because you play multiple champions. I'm not making this shit up, I've thought about this for years. It's a viable route to climb if you don't value speed, but if progressing quickly is the goal, it's far inferiour. There is a reason why many pro players used to be onetricks and why so many Master/GM players are one-twotricks. The easiest way to reach high elo, is to find a champ you enjoy and climb with that. If that doesn't work for you, don't do it! :D That means it's not the easiest way for YOU, but still the easiest way on average.
@@ShoCoaching yea it's 100% not the fastest but at least in the end you don't get elo inflated and aren't afraid of actually switthing your champions if you want to, and a lot of people are
Good points but this this video still didn't answer the question I don't know which champs are easy or teach you good fundamentals or witch role for that matter
@@DebeliYuGiOh Gave some examples in the video that I hoped would clear that up. What champs are you unclear on? The role you play is irrelevant to your climb.
Miss fortune, Seraphine and if you have a mechanics affinity and just want to brainlessly combo people, I think Samira is one of the craziest champs to climb with. Most Master Samira mains are extremely clueless. It take some time to practise combos in sandbox tho, that's for sure. Mechanically she isn't easy, but some of the hardest ADC fundamentals aren't required on her. Smolder as well probably.. Jinx, Twitch and Tristana are definitely on the easier moderate end, you're right.
MF is literally assist mode on league, all abilities make impact on their own, except for some Q tricks but they are not really complicated, also jhin is self-playing if you can land skillshots
I might be still iron because I'm bouncing around champs while drunk but if there's 1 thing I know is that noone down here knows how to build illaoi never mind play her.
or just don't know that walking away from her is the best counter to her. As soon as she ults just whole iron starts running towards the center of the ult as if there was a 'Free Burgers' sign. And all blame eachother at the end for not doing anything. well good luck doing something when 2000 tentacles are out for your ass
@@ollowainhd5531 bro I've had 3 sett players complain about her being too op while she was building wrong like my brother in Christ, you're 1 of her strongest direct counters!
Nah its 99% play on champions you vibin playing as. It doesn't matter that you can play Sona/Garen and be 500 lp higher if after 50 games you are gonna quit league because sona and garen fucking suck. Just play with the champion you enjoy and try to improve from there. The only tip there is is having 2 or 3 highly different champs per role so that you can adapt to your draft, this alone will make a lot of games feel easier with a more balanced team comp
More like trashe. Easily lowest DPS adc in the game which is only strong when... If you can't answer this on your own you will always be hardstuck in bronze.
