FogbreakGrouping at the right time
Playing as five around the next objective.
« Five atoms bonded beat five drifting around the map. Once the outer towers fall, push your wave, then join the others at the next objective. »
- The laning phase is over
The outer towers fall. From now on, the game is won in fights and on objectives, not alone in your lane.
- Group on the next objective
Baron is next: all five of you head there, together, and get there before the enemy.
- Together, with vision
Wards around the pit: the enemies who show up are seen early. Two against five, they turn back.
- The objective is yours
Five of you, with vision, and nobody to contest: Baron falls without a fight.
- The classic mistake
You farm alone bot while your four teammates fight for Baron. It's 4 v 5: they lose the fight, and the objective.
When to do it
- The outer towers are falling: the laning phase is over, fights and objectives decide the game now.
- An objective is up next (dragon, Baron, a tower): get there with your team, before the enemy.
- Your team is gathering: one player more often wins the fight, one player less often loses it.
How to keep it
- Push your wave, then join: you lose less while you're away.
- Move together, with vision: wards ahead of the group, nobody walks into the fog alone.
- One player may hold a side lane, if it's safe: the enemies are in sight, and they can get out in time.
The tip for your rank
When the first towers fall, look at the minimap: if your team is together, go and join them.
Group before the objective, not when the fight starts: push your wave, back if you need to, and arrive with the others.
Grouped with vision, your team picks the fight: enemies who show up one at a time back off or get caught, and the objective is free.
