Don't form bad habits Watch streams, ask for help, get coaching Advanced Roles: Hero Switching Hero tracking, skill tracking and looking for openings. Learning your matchups. Self-Imposed Rules: My biggest self-imposed rule is if we’ve already lost a fight, just don’t ult Flexibility: Allowing yourself to know multiple heroes/roles Personal examples Mentality: If you lose a game, you should always look back on the game as if the loss was your fault - as if there is always something you could improve Don’t be afraid to admit others can be better than you, embrace it and learn from them.
