The best League of Legends players are for many reasons, and for the majority of the community, there is simply no matching them.
However, we are making a mistake when we think that all the difference in level between us and summoners of higher or professional ranks lies in mechanical talent. The truth is that there are a multitude of small details that make the difference and that we do not use for lack of knowledge . In short, an accumulation of little tricks that would allow us to be much more efficient.
The little trick used by Faker to save himself
During a stream, Faker performed one of League of Legends' most basic moves to save his life and get some game-changing first blood .
It wasn't a mechanical display or one of those moves that made him the best player in League of Legends history. All the Korean mid laner did was stay focused and run in a straight line . It seems absurd, but to understand the thing, you must first watch the clip below.
After an initial trade in which the mid laner comes out at a huge disadvantage, Faker finds himself in a tough spot — and the best solution seems to simply be to get back to basics. However, when his opponent can finish him off, he makes a smart move that sets him apart from many players. Instead of escaping to his tower by changing direction, he takes the longest path that allows him to follow a straight line towards the enemy. In this way, he avoids entering his attack zone and makes any blow from him impossible.
This is one of the most basic moves in League of Legends. However, many players are unaware of this. When trying to run away from an opponent, especially if it is an attack damage champion, you should follow a path as straight as possible without changing direction , unless you have to dodge a skill , and even then, you have to try to move as little as possible to avoid being within attack range. This is a very easy technique that many players haven't done before, and it's made much easier to understand with this Faker move .
