World Championship Notes and Video Analysis

LoLByTheNumbers·11/25/2014, 2:47:15 AM·1 votes·793 views

So I've been working on a project in my spare time since the start of the 2014 World Championship. I've been taking notes and making some analysis on every match from the 8 teams that made it past the group stages. I figured with Riot's new LCS support of coaches/analysts, the Worlds matches would be a good place to test/showcase my game knowledge. Now that the note taking process is done, I have moved into making video analysis of each of these matches and wanted to share them.

Primarily I focus on Macro level play and strategy, looking at team compositions, win conditions and how teams can, do, and do not pull them off in their matches. Most videos (and in the notes) I will also be trying to talk about lane match-ups and item choices when they are relevant to overall team strategy.

This is a work in progress as well as my first attempt at doing any kind of video work (so for now its just a very simple audio recording as the match plays). Any feedback or comments would be appreciated as well as just letting me know if anything was informative or enjoyable.

The portal page to all of my 2014 League of Legends World Champions Notes and Videos can be found in the post link, or here: http://snowspotsgamedesign.blogspot.com/2014/11/league-of-legends-world-championship.html

The link directly to the videos in my newly started Youtube channel can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPLHxcfba64z5vZ-Y5VxsgA

Thanks again and good luck on the Rift.

Selfless bump, with more content!

TSM and SHR group stage matches are up.

Uploading Matches from EDG/C9 though will take a day or so before all of them are uploaded.

I read through a number of your notes pages and its not bad stuff. Your information is correct and thorough. I produce esports articles myself, so this is just my two cents, but i think you could condense alot of your information and explain it in a more graspable form (i realize they were just notes, I'm saying if you ever wanna format your data into an article) but good stuff man.

Thanks, I've made a few articles as well on other League subjects and data information in the past, these notes are just notes as you say =3, the real meat of the project being the Videos. It is a bit of a huge amount of information though. I was hoping/assuming that Riot's support of Coaches/Analysts was going to have a way to connect them to teams, not just monetary support, but as it gets so close to the new season, I think I may have been wrong in that XD. Still, there is plenty of useful information I've put out there.
