ABOUT ME

I'm a 24-year-old coach from Australia with 3 years of experience helping players improve their skills in League of Legends.

I began my competitive journey as a mid laner in Season 4, quickly reaching Diamond in my first season before transitioning to support from Seasons 5-10. Since then, I've consistently maintained Challenger rank, specializing in support, jungle, and ADC roles.

I offer coaching for any role up to Grandmaster level, with specialized expertise in support and jungle up to Challenger level. Region doesn't matter—I'm flexible with scheduling and available to coach players from anywhere in the world.

Topics We'll Cover

• Runes: Selecting the right, up-to-date runes based on the enemy composition.

• Builds: Choosing the optimal items and skill orders depending on the game state and enemy composition.

• Champion select: Picking the right champion, including blind picks and counter picks.

• Tips and tricks for specific champions or ward placements.

• Trading: Trading efficiently and at the right moments.

• Cheater recalls: Trading health and mana to shove the wave for optimal recall timing (minimizing minion loss).

• Skirmishing and fighting: Choosing the right fights at optimal item timings for the best chance to win.

• Freezing and pushing: Knowing when to freeze your lane and how to do it efficiently, as well as when to push to prioritize plating, turrets, objectives, and pressure.

• Leads: Using your lead effectively without throwing it, and how to close out games efficiently.

• Objectives: Strategies before and after major objectives like Dragon and Baron.

• Positioning: Positioning during teamfights, before major objectives, sieging, and defending.

• Communication: How to communicate with teammates without frustrating them or impacting their performance negatively.

• Tracking: Tracking the enemy jungler based on their start location, warding their jungle, and sharing information with your team.

• Ganking and roaming: Identifying the right opportunities to gank or roam, and using F-keys to monitor lane states.

• Warding: Efficient ward placements and timings.

How Sessions Work

1-Hour Sessions:

We'll start by getting to know each other, discussing your preferred roles and learning goals. I'll assess your strengths and weaknesses to establish a solid foundation. We'll review your builds and build paths, and analyze any VODs or clips you'd like feedback on. Depending on your objectives, we might dedicate 40 minutes to reviewing one of your games in detail, or jump into a custom game to practice essential mechanics like champion play, lane manipulation, warding, tracking the enemy jungler or laners, and identifying roam or gank opportunities.

2-Hour Sessions or Longer:

Tailored to your preferences, we can play a normal or ranked game together, where I provide live feedback on your gameplay and decision-making with practical tips and tricks. Alternatively, you can play a ranked game while I spectate, taking notes on mistakes, areas for improvement, and key behaviors—positive or negative. Afterward, we'll review the VOD together through screen sharing or other methods. I'll share my insights, discuss your thought process and decisions to foster growth, and break down mechanical and macro errors. We'll explore optimal item builds for specific situations or game states, positioning in skirmishes, trades, and teamfights, wave manipulation during the laning phase, freezing, and rotations after towers fall.

At the end of the session, I'll assign targeted homework to help you practice independently and teach you effective techniques for reviewing your own VODs.

If you choose me as your coach, I promise you've made the right decision. With my proven track record in high-level play, I'm committed to helping you elevate your game and achieve your full potential!
