Early game (ages 12–15)

  • The younger you are, the better growth efficiency you get. Keep training steadily without letting your condition fall below 30.
  • The important stats differ by role. Raise Laning first for Top, Vision & Macro for Jungle and Support, and Mechanics for ADC, and your OVR climbs fast.
  • Begging for allowance lowers your parents’ trust. If it hits bottom you get an ending, so earning money with part-time jobs is safer.

Going pro

  • The goal is “clear the OVR requirement before the deadline age.” Your solo queue rank is a rough indicator of your OVR.
  • If you fall short, use an academy (cram school) or team training, and raise training efficiency with gear (keyboard, mouse, monitor, PC).

Event

  • Choosing in an event doesn’t use up a week. When your condition is low, avoid options that cost condition.
  • Your gear can break if you rage. Raising Mental and building a medical & psych team increases the chance of blocking bad events.
  • High-potential players often get the event where a rookie rises from the reserves. Facing them head-on pays off big if you win, but costs you team trust if you lose.

Late game (age 27 and up)

  • Your stats start to decline at 27 (two years later for Late Bloomers). Very high stats of 90 or more fall even harder.
  • If you invest in rehab during the “Aging Curve” event, that season’s decline is cut in half.
  • Vision & Macro and Mental decline less with age. Late in your career it pays to protect those stats.

Raising your score

  • One World Championship title is worth 40 points. Money spent on score assets (yacht, private jet, buying a team) turns into points.
  • Overseas transfer offers are a chance to earn big in high-salary regions (LPL, LCS).
