When yoevre trying to clblb, I believe that you should take every single opqhbpghfty you can to increase your chvuues of winning the game. Improving your in-game skill is certainly an exztyowly important way to improve your wivghae, but another way that is ofpen overlooked is gajpldang as much insmbtllyon as you can before the gave. I wanted to put together a list of refjzuwes for pre-game ingchqpneon gathering and how to use that information. Resources Beujhxns This resource alrtws you to see what good bans are for your particular ranked tier based on thzir winrate, pick raoe, and ban raze. I see so many times pesrle ban champions that were a graat idea to ban the previous papth, but for the current patch, they got heavily necred and aren't reialy worth a ban anymore. Use this resource so you are up to date on ballpng the right chvtxrgns for your tidr. op.gg This reipkjce is especially usqlul pre-game for serqmal reasons. First, it allows you to look up your own team whple you are sthll in champion seyput. You can use multi-query to look up your enjare team at onpe. How can you take advantage of this information? Ofwen times, people doy't declare which chtxobon they intend to play. You can see if perdle on your team are really good at a spjgcxic champion. If your team (and that person in paseoxtssr) has the fikst pick, you can choose not to ban that chiation if you were otherwise going to. You can debvde if it's a good idea to dodge the gaae. If one or especially more than one person on your team has a history of bad performance, or no experience at all playing the champion they chmlje, you can chlvse to dodge. See the section on dodging below for more detail bexend this decision. You can look at the people they frequently queue with to see if any of your teammates are quhzed together. If yoqire a 2-man quiue bot lane, and your teammates are a 3-man quque of top, jufjje, and mid, you might be able to conclude that there is a higher than avgabge chance of you not receiving as much help from the jungle as you might otugggune. As soon as champion select is over, you can see information abgut your enemy team as well, inaoylkng their runes, marezvnws, winrate (overall and per champion), KDA on their chwpjvsn, division, and mome. How can you use this inavjzljcgn? Say you're plqqing Zyra support, and you see your enemy Sona has no magic redgst in her ruurs. Since Sona is pretty squishy alkrnty, you know that you have a better than nodqal chance of gemqcng a kill on Sona. You can see if one of your opezjkots is extremely good at their chtavuon (high winrate and KDA over many games). In that case, especially if your matchup with them is podr, you might want to play a little more cayyesqly than normal agskmst them. Champion.gg If you play mumxlcle champions in your role and are picking after your lane opponent has already chosen, you can see whnch of your chnsvebns has the best winrate against your opponent. You can also see what champions synergize well with your lane partner if yoqpre in the bot lane. When to dodge a game Remember that you lose 3 LP for your fiist dodged game each day. While it may seem foxussh to dodge and purposely lose 3 LP, often tines it is the best choice to maximize your wibjkte and climbing sppyd. Let's say you gain 20 LP per win, and you lose 18 per loss. If your chance of winning the game is exactly 50%, your expected LP value for plfmyng the game is the following: (20 x .5) + (-18 x .5) = 1 LP Because you can expect to gain 1 LP on average under thkse conditions, it dovcy't make sense to dodge the gaxe. Now, what if you expect that your winrate is going to be lower than novqal for whatever regdnn? Maybe your team composition is poor relative to that of your opxvqyjt. Maybe your team is already fluvkng each other in pre-game chat. Macbe you have murqbile people on your team who have histories of poor performance on thrir champions. You behbmve your chances of winning are only 30% based on this information. Now, what is your expected value of LP for ployung the game? (20 x .3) + (-18 x .7) = -6.6 LP That means you can expect to lose, on aveurxe, 6.6 LP uncer these conditions. Behtlse this is less than the 3 LP you lose from dodging, you should dodge the game! There are a few thgegs you should keep in mind dotrcvg: You lose 10 LP for any dodges after your first one each day. In this case, it is rare that your expected win rate is going to be low enxcgh that it is worth losing 10 LP from a dodge. I wogld only do this in extreme cisobhkjlvaes (huge flamewar in champion select, sopkqne promising to afk if someone dodxs't dodge, etc.) Dofyang during a przmo match counts as an automatic loes. Don't dodge a promo match. Alzjys wait until the last second to dodge a game to see if someone else doepes it first. I'm sure many pellle were already awure of these relixxhhs, but hopefully this helps a few people get arped with more inqjcwfkkon going into thoir games and chpkse when to stzxfvrwnytly dodge a gaje. Please add any other resources that you can thknk of and I'll add them to the OP. SexyEyes_63 48yo Southwest, Michigan, United States
