What not to do after watching LCS

Don't blindly copy the professionals. Professionals do what they do because they ARE PROFESSIONALS. They know how to make full use out of any champion's kit, and thus, they are capable of playing something that is not in the solo queue meta. Unless you have been doing something like Mid Lane Ezreal, Hecarim Top, or AD Bruiser Karma Top, or whatever Voyboy just got doing for years, don't just pick it up and expect good results. You will not only get demolished your first 3-20 games, depending on your champion, but you will immediately hurt your team's morale.

This is not to say that thinking outside the box isn't bad. What I am saying is don't try a new strategy without thinking about how it will work.

Example: (BAD) xFioramaster18 is trying out Support Fiora in the LCS, and he wins! I should immediately do that in Ranked now! FREELO!! (Good!) I think I can make Jungle Leona work! She has a slow clear, but once I get past the first three levels, I can go on a ganking spree!

EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE: Ward like you're getting paid to do so. Copy the pros on this.

You are so wrong dude.. Bronzes don't copy anyone. They just play they game as they want. And they actually do the right thing (thus they are in bronze)

Fiora is incapable of being support. Zero poke, zero CC, and completely item reliant.

I want to see this LCS game.

I think he was just using it as an example, hence the persons name was "fioramaster"

Oh god, I saw my friend do jungle Leona without a leash (we had to hold off an invasion) and he was pretty damn terrifying. It was his first time too, but we lost because we were goofing off with a five-support team (but seriously, damn)
