AI Analysis

Jungle Tracking

You repeatedly played around Bel'Veth and Amumu’s positions in this game, and the biggest mistakes happened when you ignored that information and took fights or used E as if the lane was still a clean 1v1. The habit to build is to treat missing jungle as a hard constraint on every trade: if you don’t know where the enemy jungler is, your job is usually to keep the wave in a state that lets you back off or turn, not to spend cooldowns just because Sion is in range. When you do have a read, use it to widen your punish window — if Bel'Veth is shown bot, you can be much more aggressive on Sion; if she’s missing, keep your escape tools and avoid giving up the exact kind of 2v1 that flipped this lane later.

Wave Freezing

A lot of your best moments came when you let the wave come to you and held Sion in a bad spot, but you also broke that pattern a few times by pushing when you should have been freezing and letting him walk up into danger. Freezing works best when you’re ahead and want to force the enemy to overextend, especially against a champion like Sion who becomes much easier to punish once he has to stand far from his tower. The practical adjustment is simple: after you create a good freeze, stop autoing the wave unless you’re intentionally breaking it for a crash or a proxy, because every extra hit can give Sion a safe lane position back and remove the long-chase angle you were trying to create.

Proxying

The Wizzy kept pointing out spots where you could have just moved past Sion and proxied, especially when Bel'Veth was shown bot and Sion couldn’t realistically contest you. Proxying here would have let you turn lane pressure into tempo: you clear the wave behind his tower, force him to choose between losing CS or following you, and often buy yourself a clean reset or a free roam window. The key is to proxy only when the enemy jungle is accounted for and your champion can survive the walk-through, because the whole point is to convert your lead into map pressure instead of getting stuck in a slow shove-war in front of tower.

Lane Assignments

Once the game moved into midgame, you kept drifting between side lane and mid even though your champion and your TP were telling you to commit to one side and force the map around you. In this game, the better assignment was to stay on the opposite side of Baron and keep pressure there so your team could play off the space you created, instead of showing mid and giving the enemy a free chance to group. A good rule for this kind of game is that if you’re the side-lane threat, you want to be the one forcing responses first — hold the lane, make them answer you, and only rotate when the objective or a guaranteed fight actually demands it.
