Use shrouds for first-30 control
Shrouds are not late-game value engines. They are first-30-second control tools. Treat them that way.
Execution standard
Use this guide as a decision framework in queue: choose objective, choose offering, define opener, then review conversion after the match block.
Failure pattern to kill
Most players lose value by autopiloting offerings. If your pick does not change your first 60 seconds, it is probably the wrong pick.
