AI Analysis

Jungle Tracking

You repeatedly had to guess where Nocturne and Shyvana were, and the Wizzy called out specific moments where you should have respected a possible gank because one jungler showing near Krugs implied the other side of the map could be in position too. The habit to build here is checking the enemy jungler’s likely clear pattern every time the wave or map state changes, so you can decide whether to push, hold, or back off before the gank is already on top of you. When you don’t have vision, play the lane as if the enemy jungler is on the most dangerous side of the map for your current wave state, because that’s usually the side that punishes overextension first.

Recall Timing

A big recurring issue was staying on the map while Ashe wanted to reset, which left her stuck in bad wave states and out of sync with your base timing. In bot lane, your recall should usually be tied to the wave crash or to your ADC’s reset so you both return together instead of leaving her to defend a freeze or a 1v2. If you’re already healthy and the wave is in a bad spot for your ADC, helping shove first is often the better “reset” than walking away immediately, because that keeps your tempo aligned and avoids giving the enemy a free freeze or dive window.

Target Selection

In this game you often went for the wrong target or the wrong part of the play, like trying to force Ziggs when Karthus and Ashe were the more immediate threat, or delaying on Karthus until the fight had already turned. The better habit is to ask who is actually killable right now and who your team can follow up on cleanly, then commit to that target before the enemy has time to react. On Seraphine especially, your pick potential comes from chaining CC onto the most exposed champion first, not from trying to make every fight perfect at once.

Ultimate Timing

The Wizzy kept pointing out that your Seraphine ult was often used late, used on the wrong angle, or held so long that the fight had already changed by the time you pressed it. Your ult is the biggest swing tool in these games, so you want to use it early enough to shape the fight, or save it entirely if the angle isn’t there yet. A good rule of thumb is to think about what your ult creates for your team before you press it: if it doesn’t open a pick, protect a carry, or start a fight your team can actually follow, you’re usually better off waiting for a cleaner angle.
