Aimlabs Challenge
In your next 3-5 ranked games, pay close attention to every mid-late game neutral objective (dragon, baron, herald). Ask yourself if your teammates are in position early enough to make an organized contest or if it might be better to look for a cross map play. Getting in the habit of doing this will help you avoid encouraging your teammates to take risky contests when better options are available.
