    the fundamentos, have gotten me to master this split, I will never give up my fundamentos. Although I think it's important to take note that league is an incredibly complex game, and what alois says are "fundamentals" are actually fundamental aspects of the game, it's just that the fundamentals of league are very expansive and complex. The reason they constitute the fundamentals despite being so complex is because they're the base of what makes any good league player good regardless of role, playstyle and champion, they're the very fundamentals of the game. Doesn't mean they're easy, just that they're foundational to learning the game.

      I totally see your point and agree that there's just so much to learn, getting stuck on what we call fundamental and what we don't ultimately doesn't matter if we want to get better, we have to learn it either way :) Thanks for sharing your perspective!

    I don't want to sound like this is hate, but the vast majority of the video feels like it's at odds with the message you were trying to get across. The title of the video implies that watching challengers will not help you improve, or worse that it could actively hinder your improvement. You gave a good example of that with Tyler1 and how his selfish and toxic mental state would be a hinderance if emulated by worse players (or just in general imo) but then go on to also name AloisNL as an example saying that what he calls Fundamentals, are actually already advanced concepts.
    You are by definition correct, the game of league is incredible complex, but I think you miss the point that it's a very old game and the majority of players are not new. The target audience of this video doesn't appear to be brand new players who just finished the tutorial, yet all the examples and points seem to only apply to those.
    For example, learning to last hit minions, farming. You discuss the basic of it and consider things such as identifying lane state to be an advanced topic, yet who do you think would be watching challenger players to improve? Billy who downloaded the game yesterday and is still learning the how to control his character? Or Sally who has been hard stuck silver 3 for 2 years after climbing from bronze.
    Also, on the topic of farming, it is often the advanced topics that control when you can do the basics. For example, if you consider simply killing minions as basics but an enemy laner freezing the lane on you, what do you do? How can Sally improve? Watching AloisNL (seeing as you named him) could give that answer to Sally. Playing many many games will not, going into the practice tool will not, Sally will struggle to find the answer themselves, which is the exact situation where learning what AloisNL calls fundamentals, can help and it's those fundamentals that control so many more aspects of the laning phase. You can only do the basics, when the advanced let you.
    Next you go on to talk champion mastery and again, start from the very bottom. Yes every player should learn every ability in the game, but for most players I believe that's just implied. No matter the game, most players will learn the basics simply by playing. You will learn what each ability does just by playing the game. It's only really new players who would need to "catch up" in their basic knowledge. For players who are already level 30, already playing ranked, already looking to improve, those players need the other aspects of champion mastery. The aspects of knowing your limits. Knowing your trading patterns. Knowing what is or isn't a good fight or trade for you. And once again, it's those concepts that AloisNL calls Fundamentals.
    This isn't supposed to sound like a hate comment, nor am I here to defend AloisNL (or his viewers) or condemn Tyler1 (or his viewers). It's more that I think the entire premise of this video is misguided. The information in this video is much more of a "What should new players learn first" type of video and much less so a "What will help you climb" video.

      Thank you for the feedback! I agree completely that my target audience for this video was a little all over the place and that's something I need to work on. As for what the rest of what you said, you bring up good points like only being able to do the basics when the advanced let you which is true sometimes but not always, we all miss minions that we should have gotten and my point was more directed at those "free" minions.
      As for champion mastery, I started at the bottom because while you and I seem to think alike in that it's implied for every player to learn what champions do, that just hasn't been my experience with the community. I know several people who just don't care enough to learn what champions do despite wanting to improve at the game.
      Again, thanks for your feedback and I hope to see you in the next video's comment section making sure I do a better job haha

    @tomasswaier2877 Місяць тому +4

    I really don't agree with the point of this video. Firstly you are explaining things like "if you dont know all champions and what they do then ..." which is thingy mainly people who are completely new to the game are struggling with , not people who take the game seriously and really want to improve (like gold players) (you have to admit that concept of "learn your champions combos and attack patterns" isnt already clear to everyone above lvl 30) . Also your title is straight up just clickbait because the same things that you say I've heard tens of times from challengers " learn the basics " ," learn how to farm" its not really anything new that challenger players haven't said hundreds of times. It's also missleading because what other way do people above silver have of learning anything ? ... Again not sure who you are targeting with this video since ppl who dont know anything about league aren't looking up how to get better but gl.

      I must understand the inner workings of why you would think that 2800 for 70 ad and 15 ability haste is bait when it gives you a massive dmg boost and a shield while buffing all 5 of your abilities (passive included) and giving you the first item powerspike way earlier than your lane opponent

      @kailius790 Місяць тому

      @@agaed7676 eclipse is an early powerspike that quickly falls off, in diamond and below games very often goes to late, as teams dont know how to use leads to win early, stats wise eclipse gets outscaled really fast as it only gives 70 AD and 15 AH the passive will only proc once and rarely twice during a team fight this late in to the game, i can understand building it in higher elo but in low elo its bait, you are better off with Profane hydra or black cleaver, if you are ahead even more reason to invest on to more expensive items to further snowball your lead.
