Some Valuable and Much Needed Advice for Low Elo Players

IziMytTJd7··11 votes·1,234 views

When you see a fight break out, COLLAPSE. It is literally free kills waiting for you. A huge problem at low elo is that players have side-blinds on and do not care what is going on anywhere on the map except in their immediate location.

When a fight is going on, you have to realize that the enemy is going to end up low on health and with spells on cooldown. This isn't even about "helping your team", this is about helping youself to some free kills.

If you watch the LCS (as I am right now), you will almost never see isolated fights. That's because they ALWAYS respond whenever a skirmish breaks out. And the fight is always determined by the response, not by the initial fighters.

So please, I know that minion wave seems very juicy, but unless it's under your tower, it will still be there when you get back. So remember, whenever you see a fight break out, go help!!!...yourself to some free kills.

I have a problem. I can't leave lane when I see enemy minions, I just can't. Especially if there is a juicy cannon minion.

You're asking bronzies to be aware of anything other than their own existence?

Good luck.

Idk. I learned quickly that some people don't know the difference between "collapsing" and "waiting for your teammate to get wrecked and then going in to feed a double".

I'm a gold 2 player, which is 2 full divisions above you. I can be considered low elo by some people, but not by you. Perhaps if you tried taking sound advice instead of worrying about other people's elo you would be able to get out of bronze.

Shouldn't this be in Tips and Tricks, not Misc?

Still a good post though, I will try to remember it.

Sorry Harry, but your argument is invalid, ever heard of splitpush? I think you did, and I bet you only see it when some smurf is boosting someone out of you ELO. So sorry, but your advice is darn bad. In most cases on low elo you should forget about your team and act as if it was a bot game and just push inhibs until the nexus.
