90% of the time you know where you need your camera to be. 9% of the time you press space to reset it. 1% of the time, it's mildly awkward. That 1% is worth it for actually getting the information you need while you play. Lol is like an rts, the amount of time you actually need to be looking at your character is (likely) waaay less than you are comfortable with.

My only contribution to camera chat is that I bind camera toggle to a mouse button and switch between locked/unlocked as needed, and it feels way better to me than futzing with hitting space bar to recenter. you do you of course though

Good Will Hrunting posted:I understand Smartcast to an extent but I'm not sure how it works for things like Miss Fortune's E? The one that rains poo poo down from the sky. Ignite Memories posted:If you aim a ground-targeted skillshot out of your ability range with smartcast you will move into range and use it once it is in range But Riot loves its special cases. Miss Fortune's E is specifically coded not to work like most ground-targeted skillshots. You can't buffer it to cast outside its range like that. It'll just cast at max range in the direction of your cursor if you try to.

just use locked camera and use your gamer intuition to hit targets you can't see

SKULL.GIF posted:What do you do when you need to shoot someone and move the camera at the same time? anticipating how a fight is going to go and controlling the movement and position of the camera is a skill that ive gotten good at, i guess? its rare fights just move a full screen in a totally unanticipated way while im ALSO making precision movements so the answer is literally "i already have the camera in the right spot". its no different than dodging skillshots - you dont just see a skillshot and go "gently caress! gotta dodge now!" you actively anticipate what skillshots could be coming, when they could be coming and pick a course of action that leaves you less vulnerable to them

The best players aren't getting by solely on godlike reflexes, but by knowing the typical angles and heights that people appear at and adjusting their aim ahead of time to compensate for that.

yeah that question had me so hype because its like, to me good camera movement is just something i do. i do not even think about my camera position, and when i coach people i have to go out of my way to think about why their camera is bad

Fizz will probably still do Enough damage, and he has other concerns that need addressing that these changes might help, but I can't help but see him losing 50-100 damage + .1-.2 AP on his ult in exchange for 10 more damage on Trident and 4-9 more damage reduction on his passive and think "this is nasty". In PTE he also got a cooldown reduction on his E along with these tweaks, and I could understand those changes with that, but it seems kind of limp to me otherwise.

here’s a drill you can do in the practice tool to do camera control. try moving your character up and down the river while keeping the camera in the center. don’t click once and have it path, actively try to click close to your champion and try to stay in the middle of the river, while you use longer mouse swipes to keep the camera centered. if it’s too hard, don’t change your mouse sensitivity change your camera speed. you want to be able to, with one quick motion, put your character from the center of the screen to the bottom without it leaving the screen. also put your UI size at 0. mini map size adjust until you can see everything clearly in one glance.

Has anyone messed with semi locked? I tried it briefly but it was pretty weird and I feel like you'd have to both get used to turning it off and on as well as have some other button that centers it once (again for me that's not spacebar so I'd have to use some other button) but maybe it has potential once you get used to it, I dunno

Pussy Quipped posted:Also consider turning your HUD scale down to 0, there's literally no reason for it to be as big as it is by default unless you have a sight disability. This will let you view more of the game on your screen and move your camera less. i had an eye injury and i cant really see poo poo now and my hud is super small because why would i ever need to look at it i also play without my brain though so ymmv

Did they get rid of the item shop scale? I saw people somewhere say to turn that down too. I need to glance at the HUD for cool downs and poo poo still.

I guess it’s better than locked camera but a fundamental thing you need to have is the ability to look at the rest of the map. but think of it as driving without using your mirrors. you can drive, sure, you’re looking forward so you’re sure you won’t hit anything in the way, but you’re not aware of what’s going on beyond your periphery, like a good driver would. it’s particularly important to look where you’re going, as in, if there’s a fight you wanna see what’s happening, if there’s a gank or roam opportunity you want to look before you commit. best is just to commit and play a couple of terrible games with unlocked camera, until you get used to it.

I don't think the DPI is gonna help you with that. you really don't need to do anything with your mouse other than have it respond well. you also probably don't need to click or move your mouse that much. if it's becoming actually physically uncomfortable when you're otherwise comfortable with a mouse, then you're definitely overdoing it. you want movements to be small yet precise, mostly around a small circle near your character, with flicking motions for moving the camera. the extremely fast clicking that pros do is only useful for tethering, which you probably don't need to do.
