Lol Course Study (Icons Didn't Load)
Intro First off, before starting this course you will need a subscription to Skill Capped. It's very reasonably priced for the great content it provides. You can start here if you do not already have a subscription https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/signup. Next, I made this course because although i love Skill Capped, it wasnt providing me a way to learn the game and improve the way I personally wanted. So I basically just made a layout where i could study and practice the things the site and other sites teach. Some other things I suggest are to... -Watch replays of yourself at http://www.replay.gg/. Look for things you could have done better and things you did very well, take notes. -Get OVERWOLF, this will help you view instant replays of your game and also give you stats on your team members and opponent summoners.http://www.overwolf.com/. Get these two apps in particular, http://store.overwolf.com/app/LoLwiz , http://store.overwolf.com/app/Overwolf-Replay_HUD. -Always take notes and practice the things you learn in videos from this course. -Play at least one game per day. -Study this course for at least one hour per weekday. -Watch Streamers who play your role or lane. This is just me doing my best to organize content and learn from it. Currently I do not have Homework assignments or tests of any kind, but please alway look for ways to challenge yourself for now. I will continue to work out the kinks and add content. Hope you enjoy. Here is a General way to help you improve. It will be extremely valuable to read through and study. https://www.reddit.com/r/summonerschool/comments/2mlzuy/how_to_really_improve_at_league_of_legends_not/ Keeping Up With Patches Patches http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/patch -Watch Recent Videos Reguarding Patches(Patch Rundowns/recent change impression videos) https://www.youtube.com/user/RiotGamesInc/videos Recent Videos on Skill Capped for SEASON 6 -Boots https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-boots-in-season-6 -Summoner Spells https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/summoner-spell-changes-for-season-6 -New Masteries https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/new-mastery-guide-for-league-of-legends-in-season-6---updated-for-patch-523 -AP Item Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-ap-items-in-season-6 -Starting Items and Consumable Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-starting-items-and-consumables-in-season-6 -Vision Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-vision-in-season-6 -Support Item Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-support-items-in-season-6 -AD Item Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-non-marksman-ad-items-in-season-6 -Defensive Item Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/changes-to-defensive-items-in-season-6 -5.22 Overview https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/overview-of-changes-in-season-6---patch-522 -Carries https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp-nbspspanitemization-changes-and-predictions -Minion Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/game-pace-changes---minions -Jungle Item Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/jungle-item-changes -Jungle Monster Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/jungle-monsters-tune-up -Epic Monster Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/new-epic-monster---understanding-the-rift-herald-as-a-jungler -Starting Time and Gold Item Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/game-pace-changes---starting-time-and-gold-increases -Tower Changes https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/game-pace-changes---towers -ADC Changes -Graves https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp--gravesnbspspanspan-styleline-height-242857pxchanges-and-predictionsspan -Caitlyn https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp--caitlynnbspspanspan-styleline-height-242857pxchanges-and-predictionsspanbr- -Corki https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp--corkinbspspanspan-styleline-height-242857pxchanges-and-predictionsspan -Kog Maw https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp--kogmawnbspspanspan-styleline-height-242857pxchanges-and-predictionsspan -Miss Fortune https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp--miss-fortunenbspspanspan-styleline-height-242857pxchanges-and-predictionsspan -Quinn https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/span-styleline-height-242857pxad-carries-in-season-6nbsp--quinnnbspspanspan-styleline-height-242857pxchanges-and-predictionsspan -Other Small Changes to Others https://www.skill-capped.com/lol/courseitem/video/season-6-league-of-legends-changes-in-patch-522/ad-carries-in-season-6--nbspsmall-changesnbspto-other-ad-carries Champ Select/Pregame (REMINDER: After each Sub-section look for ways to Practice in game by setting goals before game or in custom games.

Let‘s look at map awareness.
-
0 – What‘s a minimap
-
10 – I look at the minimap when I‘m dead/walking to lane
-
20 – I look at the minimap when someone pings, usually
-
30 – I try to plan my plays based on what I see in the minimap
-
40 – I look at the minimap at least once a minute, even if no one has pinged
-
50 – I use the minimap to decide if I should trade with my lane opponent or not
-
60 – I look at the minimap several times a minute
-
70 – I keep an eye on the minimap and tell my team (pings or chat) what to do based on that info
-
80 – I look at the minimap every several seconds
-
90 – I use information like last time I saw a champ and their direction to follow enemy movement in the fog of war and predict ganks/location.
-
100 – I look at the minimap between every CS In this example, each tier is building on the previous one, so the 60 point person looks at the minimap several time a minute AND uses that info to decide if they should trade. You can see how it wouldn‘t take long for someone to go from 0 to 40 with a small amount of determination and practice, but going for 70-80 could be a lot harder (remember, it has to be consistant too – it doesn‘t count if it‘s only for one game when you‘re supporting and don‘t have to CS)" From a Reddit post by Burdluver90 found here. https://www.reddit.com/r/summonerschool/comments/2mlzuy/how_to_really_improve_at_league_of_legends_not/ Team Comp Stratagies -A Guide I will be using to demonastrate http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/build/team-composition-amp-runes-387452 -Basic Basic Team This is the classic composition. Consists in having a good early to late game with strong and constant heroes. The composition is made of two players with tank/ frontline champions, an AP Carry, an AD Carry and a Support. The runes for this comp are a balance of scaling and flat runes depending on the champion and how you play it (aggressive / passive in early game). How it meant to be played? In the early game this comp needs to farm well, grab some objectives and maybe some lane kills with assist of the jungler. Falling into the mid game, this comp have a great frontline and a good support to protect the carries and initiate the team fights seeking destroy towers or killing the dragon. Example of a good TF: Renekton with Volybear stun and hold the enemy frontline while Caitlyn and Orianna deals high amounts of damage. The support stays in the back to protect the carries from an extremely quick champion that had passed the frontline. The carries have to focus who they can (focus priority if possible: Carries – Fighters – Tankers) , stay in a good positioning to not get killed and don’t go insane after the enemies carries. This stile of gameplays fits almost all types of compositions Examples of good Teams:
-Early Game Early Game Team This composition needs to rock on in the early game. Win the lanes and almost all the early game team fights. After picking up some items and level advantaged this composition NEEDS to capitalize this advantaged by taking objectives (towers, dragons). If the game goes to the late game this comp may lose some team fights and then the game. The runes synergy with this comp are Flat Runes. Scaling runes wouldn’t be so great in a team that doesn’t have a good late game. The champions that goes in this comp are champions with perfect early to mid-game. Examples:
-Mid Game Mid-Late Game Team This composition is focused in surviving the early game to destroy in the late game. Play passively in the early game because this comp uses scaling champions that become hyper-carries in the late game. The team fight needs to be good and with great synergy to lead the team to the victory. Scaling runes combined with flat runes are good to this comp. Flat runes helps to survive the early game and the scaling ones helps to become monsters in the mid-late game. This comp need initiation heroes for the team fights like malphite, amumu, shyvana. Examples of late game champions:
-AOE AOE Team As the name says, Area of effect team should be played with almost every champion that has a huge damage in area. This comp can or not have a good early game but it needs to have well played team fights synergizing all AOE damage. This composition makes nice wombo combos! Examples of teams:
-Global Influence Global Influence Team Global team consists in having champions with global range skills. The main character is Twisted Fate because with his ultimate ( Destiny) he will reveal all enemy champions. With all enemies reveled champions like Nocturne , Ashe , Jinx, Ezrael, Ziggs, Pantheon can have fun landing they skill shots or going after a chase. Examples of teams:
-Poke Poke/Siege Team This composition is all about poking your enemies to death. With heavy poke the team should get the enemies away or killed to focus objectives. But a poke team usually doesn’t make a great team fight with all players in full health. Because of this avoid solid team fights. Good Poke/Siege Teams
