Tips and Tricks

• To level up a skill without clicking the buttons, press (Ctrl)+(Q/W/E/R)
• If you're low on health but want to keep getting experience, hide in the closest bush as close as possible, as you heal you still get experience.
• If you have not gotten the last 2 items of the build, stick behind your minions, and attack only if you know you will not die.
• Each section of the health bar is worth 100, if the last section is not a full one, it's not a full 100, it helps you know when to use your ultimate and to know how much health your opponent has left more specifically.
• When fighting Baron, make sure you have thorn mail, when fighting dragon, thornmail is unnecessary
