You die 7.5 times per game (Platinum average: 6.0). Deaths hand over gold, tempo and objectives. Before walking forward ask: where is the enemy jungler, and do I have vision of this bush? Trade a kill you are not sure of for a safe recall.
From the fourth game of a session onwards you win 20%, compared with 80% in the first three. Fatigue is invisible from the inside — play in blocks of three and take a real break.
You take part in 31% of your team's kills; Platinum players average 55%. After your first item, look to rotate for dragon, grubs and herald, and keep Teleport for fights rather than for farming.
You spend 14% of your games dead. Late deaths cost a minute each; when a fight is lost, back off and defend rather than adding one more death to it.
You average 7.2 CS per minute as Top — well above the 6.3 typical for Platinum. Your gold income is a real edge; convert it by finishing items before objectives spawn.
You typically come out of lane ahead of your opponent. Turn that lead into map pressure: shove, take plates, then move to help another lane while your opponent is stuck.
2.6 solo kills per game — you win 1v1s. Use that threat to draw the enemy jungler to your lane and free up the rest of the map.
Irelia: 6 wins in 8 games (75%). When you need LP, this is the pick — climbing is easier on a champion you win with than on a "stronger" one you don't.
