I know the question may sound stupid but trust me it’s not. I value flash very highly. So, I tend to hold onto flash for as long as possible. This has cost me lanes and games. When I watch high elo vods they treat flash just like any other ult. I mean in those vods flashes are burnt like it’s nothing big. But that summoner spell has the highest cooldown next to tp. How can they use it without much concern? I sometimes get chances to kill my enemy with flash but refrain from using it aggressively. Sure it may give me the kill but what about the next 5 mins I have to play with flash disadvantage and scared of enemy ganking. Isn’t it better to use flash to escape?(Always)

Any comments will be much appreciated. Thanks for support. Also, I have only played this game for only 1.5 years. So, I am sure your advice will be helpful

    The use of flash is indeed important but map awareness and skill can make flash just like any other movement ability. The uses for flash outweigh the reason for not taking it. Need to get away? Flash. Need to reposition an ability? Flash. Need to get that last auto in to ensure their death so you can crash waves? Flash.

    There are just so many uses for flash aggressively and creatively that not taking it or only using it defensively just leaves you without kills and skill gaps.

    Use flash when it’s cool. If it doesn’t make you look cool don’t use it.

    Honestly it depends but it looks like you don’t use it enough. Using flash in early game to get a kill is often worth cause ur going to crash the wave and make him lose XP/Gold at the same time. You will not have your flash for next 5min but who cares anyway it’s not like you can use it better. Even using flash for a 1 for 1 can be worth it depending on the miniions situation.

    If you don’t use it you aren’t getting any value out of it. Pro players are better at recognizing when to use it (and also they are more likely to take risks) and that’s why they use it often
