  • leaguE talk #40 - How to Avoid and Recover from Tilt; A Focus on the Now - What is tilt and where does it come from? Focus on winning from NOW. In game and out of game recovery techniques.

    If you listen to the podcast and enjoy it get in contact with me! Im happy to chat and would love to have some questions from you to answer on video and the podcast!

    This episode of leaguE talk goes into tilt and how we as players can avoid it and recover from it. We go into detail on how to set Extremely Micro Goals as well as breathing/meditation techniques and mindfulness. One thing that people do miss is understanding what tilt is , in this episode we tackle this issue and go some way to getting a better grasp of where tilt comes from. A huge takeaway point from this episode is focusing on how to win from now without using brain space on what happened 5 minutes ago or what could happen in the future.

  • leaguE talk #36 - 10 Man Rosters: Addressing the Criticisms

    A response to Listen Loco #30 and A defence of Weldon Green and CLG's 10 man roster. 


    Ive seen an opinion of recent that I do not agree with regarding the importance and application of 10 man rosters in League of Legends. In this episode I go over why the 10 man roster is something I strongly believe in. Three major points that we don't even see on stage that proves how important the 10 man roster is.
