Platinum 4 Top Laner looking for serious coaching!

Remain Inspired·6/24/2016, 7:50:15 AM·1 votes·467 views

Good day to you,

I am here seeking serious advice and criticism towards my play as I would like to significantly improve before the end of this season. I main top lane and I have been working on some very blatant issues that I have with my play, and I feel that it would be a much better and meaningful experience if I had another perspective added to my analysis.

What I am currently looking for:

  • A player/coach with a solo queue rating at or above Diamond 3.
  • A player/coach whom will analyze my games with me in order to help sort mistakes and refine my playstyle.
  • Someone to give serious and meaningful advice on IMPROVING (not climbing.)

As of today, I have decided to start taking serious notes on my play. For example I will make a text document on my desktop that reflects a certain game, with details about what happened in order to check back easily within the replay.

Sample document:

  • 6-24-2016 - Top Lane, Singed vs Pantheon

  • 4:37, died to gank, first blood.

  • 6:21, received gank, missed kill. Took herald.

  • 7:34, TP to lane, check how much gold you would have lost and what you saved from crashing to turret.


I would prefer a Diamond 1+ coach who mains top and can teach me things about trading, minion management, tp usage, matchups and general experience.

Add me in game if you're interested, eventually I will provide compensation. Thank you!

I personally think that you shouldn't "eventually compensate" any player or coach at that tier, is going to be getting paid by player or an organization or even streams. At that elo you can really make money on the side doing any of these. I can get you a coach, one of them being a yasuo(top) one trick, but he's gotten to diamond on 2 other accounts with adc. I have 2 others in Diamond as well one in Diamond 2(mid) and another in Diamond 5(who has coached others to Diamond). If you want I can have one of them coach you, but it unfortunately wouldn't be free.

You might want to add what could have been done better with your notes, it will help you with upcoming similar matchups. There is no point just acknowledging the mistakes without looking for solutions to correct them. i.e: 0:00 - Started cloth/4. bad starter. (thought it was Panth top, didn't check summs... BAD.)... Should have started corruption potion+ward

Yes, I posted that right after the game. I analyze the mistakes while I watch the replay at the timestamp; then add a "fix" or a better way to do it next time.

Got a few people to add me and have received some great advice so far:

Something that I have been told numerous times is how I need to fix some of my laning mechanics. I feel like I have already started to get a little better keeping these tips in mind.

Please add me if you'd like to add your input!
