Hiring a Coach? Yay or nay?

Have any of you ever hired a coach? Any thoughts? I was Gold 5 last season and I'm looking to know what I need to do to take it to the next level. I'm shooting for Plat this coming season, but we'll see.

Just a quick glance at your recent games.

You play too many champions and too many roles. Pick 3 champs in the same role and play them every game until you master them. Have one backup role that you can handle without a lot of practice.

You die too much, I see a few games where you won and had almost 20 deaths. That should never happen, you are getting carried too much. Dying is much worse than getting a kill. Trading your life 1 for 1 is almost always a bad idea unless you are miles behind. If you are even or ahead it is not good. Protect yourself more.

Your warding isn't bad but it could be better. 16 wards in a 30+ minute game isn't great. Vision is knowledge and it is the most powerful stat in the game. If you are jungling you need to be dropping wards in the enemy jungle regularly for knowledge of their movements and to set up ganks.

I think it can be beneficial in spotting mistakes that you might not even know you are making. It won't suddenly make you a better player though. You will still have to put in the time and learn to apply the lessons they teach you.

I would check out some of this guys videos, I really enjoy his coaching vids and I think he gives pretty good coaching.

No, but I don't suggest you do unless you intend to make money playing the game. Even then I wouldn't pay for a coach. Just watch recordings of your games, consider what you did that worked and what didn't, and adjust from there.

Watching gbay99 get coached by LS almost got me to plat before getting banned

That is, playing an entirely macro-based champion who is incredibly similar to Irelia with little-to-no mechanics involved. Jax
