I'm curious as to what sparked your interest in coaching? Not trying to be sarcastic or condescending. Just genuinely curious. As a Bronze level player and an overall veteran of the game at this point (played since early season 3) I'd love to improve more and with college semester ending in a few days I'm on the hunt for ways to do that. Youtube videos and Twitch streams are nice and all, but learning alongside actual people interacting with you tends to work best for most I've noticed. I would say as a player I'm at a point where I have good amount of intellectual knowledge of mechanics, but actually implementing them effectively and at the appropriate times is where I largely fail.

Examples being I know warding is very important, but I'm certain I'm not placing my wards in the best possible places and/or at the times they would be most effective depending on my positioning/state of the game. I know how important cs-ing is and that getting good farm trumps kill chasing every time, but I struggle with learning and mastering effective wave control despite watching videos of higher elo players doing it. The last big one would probably be improving decision-making based on map awareness. I don't mean that I don't pay attention to the mini-map, but rather when I do glance at it, seeing a lane is pushed up or pushed out, what objectives are up, etc. what should I be doing? As a Bronze player I know I end up making the mistake of choosing the wrong thing, or worse, spending too much time doing nothing while I wander between lanes.

If those are things you think you could help with that would be huge for me.

I understand that. The world of work calls many to its dark depths. I used to play much more myself but college semesters take priority while they're in session. I'm in EST though if that affects availability at all. For the most part I'm available any day of the week so my schedule is flexible. It'll be summer break for me so I won't have any obligations outside of family related activities and a planned trip to the west coast for a friend's wedding. I have discord as well, same name as my summoner name here. I would very much appreciate input to help my gameplay. I'm not at all worried about hitting gold in like a week. Honestly, I'd be happy to hit Silver by the end of summer. I have a diverse champion pool and I know my champs well, but I know I'm stuck in Bronze because honestly my mechanics of the game in general are lacking. I've at least in the last year realized as a Bronze player I have to recognize that I'm stuck here largely because I simply don't have the skills or proficiency yet to compete at a Silver or higher level.

Feel free to add me in-game and we can figure things out there.
