Ugh, thank you so much for this. This video feels entirely essential for everyone. I consistently struggle in all these areas and am excited to keep this in my bookmarks for the days I feel disoriented and need a recap. I look forward to improving and hope to get some further personalized help with your coaching, but for now, a visual learner like me appreciates all your extensive educational League content.
That's actually very helpful! I've lost motivation to get better, im just rage-queueing and losing a lot of games lately due to lack of motivation. I'll try to follow the steps of this guide and i will update on my progress on stream. Thanks a lot for good quality content, keep it up!
I feel like these tips apply to real life situations too. This was actually helpful and motivating for me not just as a league player, but as a student trying to improve my grades. Well done man, I actually subbed because of this
I really enjoyed the video. I knew things that I can work on and just decide to work on all of them at once, but never had thought of just doing one at a time. By the end of this seasons I plan on being in silver. With your videos and my lack of friends I think it’s doable by the end of the season.
Man the amount of people who need to watch this video is insane I always get frustrated when I lose too much with a champion even when there were afks, bad team comps or when it was just me who played poorly. Thank yooouuu
This is my first season of ranked. I switched to mid at the start of this season. Only played normals in top last year. I'm bronze 2 but I've focused my champ pool down to 3 champs (Orianna, Ahri, and Taliyah). Not the best pool since they're all ap but I hope to make gold this season. I butchered my MMR by not dodging and just trying other champs so it's a long process. Love the content
The pinned recap comment has some of my own resources, I have plenty of laning videos/optimization guides/etc. The only thing I haven't personally made is a warding video.
I love this video! Can you do an in-depth video for your checklist? Seems like you could easily spend 15 minutes on just the checklist some and various outcomes depending on the answer to some of those questions.
I have a really old video for this that might help ua-cam.com/video/ax4qHuq5BSc/v-deo.html Right now I just need to catch up on Gameplay and take advantage of Syndra's peaking popularity
I'm a brand new player and my goal is to master the fundamentals. I suck at CSing, I suck at trading, I suck at macro, I suck at micro. My objective is to suck less at these things lol
Hi. I really appreciate this video. I'm currently d4 kinda hardstuck. I lost motivation and I'm playing bad. I'd like to get to master before season ends. I have less than 2 months. Do you guys think it's still possible??
Thanks for watching! I'd focus on getting D2/D3 first and working on your gameplay. If you set your only goal at Masters, every loss will feel extra demotivating since it's much farther away. Once you get to D2, Masters would be the next step.
this season i have been following the theory "you can't lose LP if you don't play ranked" 🥲 but if i have fixed some issues, next season i might climb. thanks for the great videos and awesome streams!
To recap:
Apply a Mental Checklist in every game that you play to avoid autopilot
1)Identify Mid Matchup
2) Identify Jg Matchup
3) Jg Tracking basics
________________________
Fundamentals you can isolate and work on to improve your gameplay:
Pre-Game (Before game starts)
Master your champion by understanding
1) It’s identity + archetype
2) Rune Optimization
3) Itemization
4) Practicing your combos in practice tool
________________________
In-Game:
Farming (More CS = More gold = More items)
1 Kill = 300G
1 Wave = 105G without cannon
Every 6 CS you miss is a free lead over your opponent
You can do this by going into practice tool for 5-10 minutes to ingrain healthy muscle memory
Aim for at least 6 CS PM minimum
__
Trading:
1) Positioning
2) Last Hit Windows
3) Cooldowns
4) Resource Management
__
Warding:
1) Purpose
2) Timing
3) Placement
4) Denial
__
JG Tracking (ua-cam.com/video/czEh90vIQOQv/v-deo.html)

Wave Management (ua-cam.com/video/WJzoq7GP6IA/v-deo.html)

Glad to hear. Best of luck with school and league.
The fact that I'm reading Zianni's replies in his voice in my mind is so hilarious

@@Zianni lol nope... Your pleasant Narrator voice
Y’all betta listen to zianni this man knows what he’s talkin bouttttt
thanks cc

No way u end silver, plat at least
Man the amount of people who need to watch this video is insane

Its human to get frustrated or upset in these scenarios. You are however in control of how you deal w/ being frustrated
Thanks for watching
This is the 3rd video of yours I’ve watched; just subscribed! Great content - thanks!
Awesome, thank you! Appreciate the support.
Honestly this whole video was motivational as fuck in my life! Weirdly felt this one
Probably because this advice is applicable to real life goals as well
Thanks a lot, I went from Iron II to Iron I watching this!
Grats man!!
Thanks for the checklist! It will really help a lot.
Glad it was helpful!
Zianni has mastered the art of teaching while simultaneously flaming
It's always been my strong point
Great Video going to be applying this to my gameplay asap
You can isolate DEEZ NUTS LMAOOOOOO

I bless you with heavy AD teams
very helpful. I need to work on my cs skills and I often don't focus on it enough.
Time to start pog
excellent video, super useful information
Love u aria
This is awesome, Sir! Would you be able to link some good resources to learn the fundamentals? I'm overwhelmed by choice xx
The pinned recap comment has some of my own resources, I have plenty of laning videos/optimization guides/etc. The only thing I haven't personally made is a warding video.
@@Zianni I see now. You're a gem
thanks zianni after watching this i ranked up from iron 1 to global elite
Global Elite nice
The silence is deafening.

@@Zianni fair enough! I’ll check this video out too. Thanks
I know you aren't a fan of junglers but as a jungle main I'll attempt to apply some of this on my climb to gold.
Gold is yours. I believe
thanks for the video bro
Thanks for watching :3
I enjoyed this vid as a current old school runescape player
I enjoy this comment as an OSRS stan
How to find this roadmap to isolate only one subject? I don't know what to focus now...
Look at pinned comment and pick whatever you feel like is your weakest area. I would recommend following the progression (1/2/3/4) etc
Thanks zianni just after this video I was able to take a fat W in the rift and got massive LP gains
wow its crazy how fast you applied this information
I came looking for game skills and got a life skill.
TFW They told us video games won't teach us anything
my rank is Silver 4. My goal rank is Gold 4. Started Iron 4 and climbed a lot thanks to your videos as well as Ioki's (I play mid/supp)
Great progress so far! Keep it up king.
This should be added onto the LoL client! Amazing ❤
Currently gold 2 would like platinum/diamond
If u dont end plat, I would be surprised
I'm a brand new player and my goal is to master the fundamentals. I suck at CSing, I suck at trading, I suck at macro, I suck at micro. My objective is to suck less at these things lol
“I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing.”
this was really helpful. thank you! I want to get to bronze ^^
I am gold 3 and I want to be plat 5. Thank you for this motivational & educational video Zbear :D
DIVISON 5 ???
@@Zianni hahaha I dream big what can i say!
Brò wants to time travel 😂
Huge goal I'd say!
My man wants to rank in 2018, gl!
Reminder that zianni with no vowels is znn
Sheeeesh

Good video
:)
Thanks :3
if i play ranked i will use your videos to get to mid diamond, your videos are so fucking good, thanks for all your hard work
i want to get to gold but im stuck in silver 4 with 0 lp :(
U HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE, LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
nah, walking up the stairs requires 2 or 3 steps to climb, long legs and all
depends on ur legs then
Thanks for this video! Im silver 4 and wanna reach gold this season :)
You got this!
@@Zianni Thanks
I’m a silver 4 and my goal is gold 😭 I have my platonic harem powers though OwO
Platonic Harem will rise up
You sound a bit like Vars.
WhOMEGALUL
@@Zianni Your voice is 😋
I dont play any of your champs but the bear + the voice + the info is just quality shit.
Bronze 3.
Goal: silver 4.
my gf says you're inspiring :3
U two are cute
Veigar is a stupid champ that presses R and E, prove me wrong.
this season i have been following the theory "you can't lose LP if you don't play ranked" 🥲 but if i have fixed some issues, next season i might climb. thanks for the great videos and awesome streams!
Valid theory, you can't gain LP either though :3. Best of luck on the climb next season. Thanks for the support
