The "Trinity Skills" to become a "Force". AKA The 3 "player skills" necessary for League.

Lakega··2 votes·2,555 views

I and my brother, created a video to explain something we think people just aren't getting. We hear often times "CS" this and "CS" that. CS isn't everything, and we get quite annoyed when we see people ignorantly proclaim they are the best on the team simply because they have more CS.

This video isn't a complaint however, nor is it a "we're epic you suck". In-fact we're both Silver. We do know however, what it takes to be great, and how the personal skills in the game that the players themselves have relate, and interact with the game and game mechanics therein.

This video is to break the boundary of "CS is everything", and explain the 3 required skills, and the 4th skill that ties them all together. This is also to help those who are attempting to look at themselves and determine what and where they are lacking.

Though we don't go nearly as in depth to each of the 3 skills or the 4th main skill that ties them all together, as the video has already reached nearly 20 mins, and we don't know how well this video will be taken by the community as is. If we feel more in depth analysis of each of the 4 skills should happen, we may make another video.. Or not.. we'll see.

(Sorry in advance for the microphone.)

Agree, would've been much better to release a text post in conjunction.

We weren't meaning to try to keep the attention span of a toddler or ADD kid who hadn't take his meds. Sorry to say. The info is what it is. If you need flashy lights, and 100x pictures being alternated every second like most t.v. shows these days to keep your attention than yes the video is not for you and you'll miss out.

tb:dw CS isn't even close to everything, cs doesn't mean you're good. There are other vitaly important skills you need in league to be considered good.. If you think cs is everything, you're a full retard.

if you wish to comment on any of this, pop your ADD pills and watch the video. :)

lol ok... when u post a video u should realize you are going to get criticism, but u obviously can't take it, and if u have to turn around and try to attack someone because of it you're probably a bad teammate in games also. glad u think u should be advising the community.

for the record, I have been an actor in more than a few mid size stage productions and do know a thing or two about catering to an audience. Getting harshly critiqued is a part of the business. Maybe next time u feel like putting together a video u should contact me for a decent narration.

Until then, wipe your mouth kid and try to stay in your seat.

Criticism is fine. A few people thought it was bland. A few others had the attention span to listen. It is what it is.

My criticism of what you said, is that we were not catering to people who had to have flashy graphics and images flipping every 10 seconds. The point was to give the information, that's it. Take it or leave it.

You can criticize, which you did, good for you. I did it back.. and you couldn't take it. Ironically proclaiming I'm the one who couldn't.

In-fact, I happily gave you the information and summed it up in that tb:dw in text to save you the immeasurable trouble of watching the video, since it was so boring to you. Which again is fine, I really don't care. It is what it is :)

I remember once, I believe it was a normal draft game, I was vayne and the enemy adc was Lucian. He had poked me until I was under tower, and his cs got way ahead of mine. Then his Nami walked under my tower... free kill. Then he dived in at me. Another free kill, but I had to b. By the time I got back, Nami dived the tower again, and at that point I was fed enough that Lucian was a joke. For the next four kills. He has 20/25 cs on me, and said in All Chat "Vayne your cs sucks" and I couldn't help but laugh. I was the one going 7/0. His Nami was all the cs I needed that game.

Hey I think you have some pretty good information in there. However, I feel like you can introduce your information a bit better. It just doesn't feel very organized and is hard to follow.

I recommend doing a quick list of the skills you hope to highlight rather than jumping right into criticism. Then go into further detail about each one you're trying to explain each. Your video starts with high criticism of CSing means your video doesn't start making the real points you want to make until much later. 4 mins until you start listing your trinity force of skills is a little too long IMO. I think you could make the information much more accessible by using this format.

Introduce yourself Introduce the topic/topics only using a sentence to explain each (if you want to criticize something specifically I recommend making that itself a topic and then going into in detail in the next section) Go back through explaining them in the same order you introduced them Conclude Then add any additional information or introduce a separate video to discuss anything else related

Hope you take this criticism well. Again, I feel you have good information in there, but, it won't reach many as its presented currently

Hmmm..

I may re-make the video with those suggestions. Thank you :)

It makes a lot of sense. There are some things that are repeated or drawn out that didn't need to be.
