    Something big that should be mentioned is that you should keep in mind this is a process. You won't find success from day 1, it will take time. You will lose A LOT at the start, because your brain is getting used to focusing on the new goals you set for yourself, but it's key to not get discouraged by that. You are learning and it's normal to suck at first. Just gotta keep going and working on those goals before you statt seeing positive results

      my friend always cries after 1 lost game about it lmao. i always tell him that its just 1 game, league needs you to play a hundred more. i know a man whos a challenger and top 1 kassadin euw in the past though, he said he boosted some guy to challenger from unranked on a new acc for like 2.5 days. but lol there is a difference between my friend whos gold 1 and always cries about bias in the game and a rank 1 kassadin in europe. so in general the truth is yours ofc

      like that day i started doing 100 sit ups every day. no matter how hard or detrimental that may be to my "gains" it's about putting in hard work, getting used to it and realizing I'm actively fighting against my goal. I'm putting in the hard part anyways so the rest seems less daunting to be added over time. Suddenly 100 Situps get easy, well might as well add some other excercises when I'm at it anyways.
      Suddenly I feel repugnant towards eating unhealthy, since I'm struggling so hard with these situps I don't want it to be all for nothing.
      It's MUCH easier to just sit there and say, well 100 situps every day is not good for me (even though abs are most regenerative muscle we have) and they don't even burn all that much fat anyways, yadda,yadda, you know the drill, 1 solution has 1000 counter arguments waiting to be uttered to yourself.
      So before I could just talk myself out of it I layed down and just did it.
      I couldn't even do 20 in a row at first, that's how out of shape I have gotten but I was hellbent on finishing the 100 mark before I stood up no matter how long it would take me.
      Now I'm incorporating other excercises, like I said, might as well because I'm starting to like this excercising again.
      Gotta do some back raises at least to help combatant the back pain issue that would come with severely overtraining one side of my body but you know probably better than me.
      Fitness is a journey and everyone starts out at a different point. And at one point, even the strongest person on earth currently couldn't do a single push up. (Which is objectively true)

    This is fascinating because every time I come back to League, it takes me about that long to pick up all my old habits to climb and get back into it.

    I have calculated the necessary winrate, which is needed so that the rank does not change, depending on the negative difference of LP-gains and losses. For example:
    if you get +20 LP on a win and -30 LP on a loss, the win rate "p" needed to NOT change the rank is:
    20*p - (1 - p)*30 = 0
    20*p - (30 - 30*p) = 0
    20*p - 30 + 30*p = 0
    50*p - 30 = 0
    50*p = 30 | /50
    p = 30/50
    p = 0,6
    So your winrate has to be 60%. This means that with a negative LP ration of |-30/+20| = 1,5 (meaning u lose 1,5 more LP than u gain) a 60% winrate is enough to hold the rank
    (I only made the transformation so detailed that it is easy to understand)
    You can swap the "+20" and "-30" for any number and use the formula above to calculate the required win rate.
    For the nerds: if you model a curve with "p" on the x-axis going from 0 to 1 and "(ratios of LP gains/losses)^(-1)" going from 0 to 1 on the y-axis, you get a falling convex function from the point (0.5|1) to (0.99|0.01). The "(ratios of LP gains/losses)^(-1)"-part simply means: "1,5^(-1) = 0,67" (this is only necessary to get only values between 0 and 1 on that scale) EDIT: this only works, as long as the lost-LP are higher than the gained-LP. The fact that it is a convex function and not a linear one, shows that a Negative LP-gain has less harsh consequences for the win rate than one would think. Even if the effect is rather small. Ye sry, had to get that off my chest haha

    u r right, the tip i can give is to play just one champ, 1. u need to master that champ (skillshot range, runes items ...) + then trying to play and do not doing any mistake with that champ (like missclicking a skillshot ...) + trying to improv that champ more forward by watching high rank players and trying to do the same mechanics as them, it will take you some time but at the end u will just smash down the enemy team very easy, the only problem with that is the champ u will master after some time it will be so annyoing and boring cuz every game u just eat the other team with no effort and there is no more challenge playing that champ

      @lukkkasz323 7 місяців тому

      ​@@synsol1008 none of these accurately show the impact on the game.
      1) dmg in many cases is irrelevant, because the enemy will recall or heal back, or even harmful it you have to trade for it which could potentially enemy's stack Grasp/Heartsteel.
      2) gold while the best out of them all, has issues, let's say you leave a kill for someone else, are you playing worse because of that? the stat says so. That's not the end, usually with higher gold you get higher bounties, so unless you get impact on the game from getting fed, the enemy might get ahead more so than they would.
      3) vision - let's say you're on a very tight lane, constantly getting pushed under tower playing as red-side top, you stand there so long that you've stacked up 2 wards, is it really a good idea to place the ward in a bush where it's not necessary just to get the vision score going?

    5:44 for some reason your cursor was selecting both akali and the minion at the same time, and usually when that happens the game prioritizes the champions. Akali disappeared in her shroud so it instead casted on the other target that was there at the same time.
    Possible causes:
    - You have a weird monitor resolution/aspect ratio
    - Cursor hitboxes are fucked

So if I want to make my jungle tracking a habit, I kinda let everything else in-game except jungletracking up to the subconscious mind/autopilot?

    • @nillnoir
      @nillnoir  9 місяців тому +2

      If you've properly made good habits ex. looking at the minimap, you should be able to do it on autopilot/without too much active effort and this will allow you to focus on adding new things. It's like I said you don't have to do only one thing but it's up to you to judge how much you can do at one time and still be able to focus. Just make sure you don't overdo it because then you might end up not practicing something well enough and not even being able to tell.

    • @nillnoir
      @nillnoir  8 місяців тому +1

      @@pand4n968 Knowing which habits to create is the skill aspect here, I can't give you many recommendations because I only mid lane. By skill aspect I mean this will be the determining factor of weather this works for you or not and it will distinguish someone who's good from someone who's bad.
      Look at the tendencies and habits from players you use to model your gameplay, this way you will be able to formulate habits that are useful for you.
      Jungle tracking in the way you describe it is very hard so don't get discouraged if it takes a lot of mental effort to implement it, it's normal to not be able to do everything all at once and this is precisely why we build habits, so that we don't have to expand mental effort for every single thing we do (we can just autopilot it after a certain point).
      If I were to guess, the reason why you have trouble with the other stuff while you jungle track could be that you haven't properly habitualized the other behaviors (eg. looking at lvl) so you are trying to do too much. It's a guess but I hope it helps.

Riot only wants u to be as addicted as possible to the game so that u buy more of their shit, getting to a point where videos like this get made, where u are trying to climb whilst not even having fun just to get some LPs which have no real value outside of ur capacity to turn ur elo into an asset that provides money (most inefficient asset i've ever owned). Wake the fuck up this game is a dead end unless u are Literally a T1 player 18 years old with extreme talent, im telling u from experience, take the advice u will regret the amount of time u put into league in the future. ( for context I made another route to make money out of league bc i love the game just hate the company's management and the players in higher elos, a business in Esports, that's kind of what im trying to say, if u are for real trying to makee money out of this game like me, dont become pro, thats the tip)
