shotcalling
What does shotcalling mean?
When one player directs the team: who to gank, when to push, which objective to take. Five people doing their own thing loses; one clear voice wins.
"Our shotcalling was a mess all game, nobody knew if we were taking Roshan or backing off."
Frequently asked questions
Is the shotcaller always the team captain?
Not necessarily. Often it's whoever has the best map awareness in the moment — sometimes the support, sometimes the mid, sometimes split by phase of the game.
