Level 30 tutorials

By 30, most players should know how to play the game to some degree, but are still missing key knowledge that is really needed for ranked.

At 30, or earlier, players should be introduced to some more advanced, yet still simple ideas. For example, I would guess 10% of players under gold begin the game with a 4/5 point scouting defence, something higher elo players do without even thinking. Its super simple, but most players never learn if they don't watch high level play regularly. This could also include basic movement controls like orb walking, and basic camera controls.

There are loads of examples like this, so I wont go through more unless this gets some interest, but I think this would greatly improve the average skill of the player-base.

As an addition to this, the load-in hints should be updated to give a greater range of useful advice "Players who protect the junglers buffs win x% more games", in place of the lore info.

I think the inclusion of vision score is a good step in this direction, encouraging players that don't normally ward, but a lot more could be done easily.

-Someone needs to look after the low elo's :P

I'd like to volunteer as an "interester".

Please share some more insight into this.

Some more examples might be: -Leading skill-shots -Baiting cool-downs with stutter stepping or mimicking animations -Fog usage -Protecting objectives like drake and baron -Building team comps -Counter picking -Rotating based on enemy movement and spawn timers on objectives -Warding positions and pathing to avoid wards -Basic interactions, like who and what can be spotted by what, wards can spot you while they are being swept etc. -That a jungler should almost always help laners push to tower after successful gank

Really anything that would be considered basic knowledge in higher elo, or even some more advanced strategies like the lcs trick to avoid wards in the bush above mid-lane.
