You are quite wrong on the skill shot part. Osu has vastly increased my accuracy with skill shots and reaction timing against them as well.
Aside from that it won't do much.

I'm terrible with judging where my mouse pointer goes, given a certain movement of my mouse hand.YayMii wrote:
Unless you don't know how to use a mouse, I don't see how playing osu! would possibly help with League of Legends
Attack move is generally the better move,especially for ads as you missclick less[AirCoN] wrote:
yes and no. it's visibly almost impossible to know where you improved by playing osu!, but after a long time, you might just start to realise your map awareness, reactions, and cursor precisions are all increased. The thing is, playing osu! removes the need for attack move, and you can use the much more reliable right click move. it makes your adc mechanics so much smoother, noticeably. not for anything related to decision-making though. osu! improves your mechanical skill, but mechanical skill is overrated at most elos.
Why do you think rightclick is more reliable than attack move? In my opinion it is the other way round.[AirCoN] wrote:

Theoretically with a move you have to move your mouse less to save time and to make kovement easier[AirCoN] wrote:
the point is, a-move is used as a substitute to the traditional right click move to make up for the lack of precision right click involves. however, with osu!, it will remove that inprecision, thus making right click move a lot more reliable. i'm sure you all had problems with a-move mistargeting, but that won't happen with right click.
This isnt true. Playing osu doesnt change anything in league,its just your imagination. MadLife would be the same god even if not playing osu. 90% of skillshots is judt brain (prediction,knowing whats goin to happen etc) and 10% aim. The only reason you see streamers playing it is because its fun and you have to kill queue times. I play in Challenger soloQ and it never changed anything I did in any way,even after I started to play osu.Narudatsu wrote:
Osu! works with hand eye coordination. Also it improves a bit of your Action Per Minute. As a Starcraft and LoL player, I love playing Osu on the side since it helps me hit skillshots and improve at least two of my fingers' speed. I also feel like osu makes me look around more often. Instead of intently looking at your champion in lol, I begin to take in what's around me. A lot of lower elo players don't often do this. I actually played osu! before I started League and TBH, out of my friends at school, I feel like I'm much better than them. Most of them are Silver and Gold. This past season 3, while playing osu on the side, I went from bronze to plat. I am a firm believer of osu helping league players. Madlife, CJ Entus Frost's support player plays a lot of Osu! to practice how he aims his skillshots. I also greatly improved some of those hard-to-hit skillshots like Blitzcrank's pull.
TL;DR
Osu! helps with Skillshots

So tldr; osu is a fun timekiller game but playing osu makes you better in osu,not other games.

No. Realize that you're comparing a rhythm game to a MOBA. They have vastly different mechanics.
I consider myself good or at least above average at this game, but I'm mediocre at league. Inversely, those streamers are really good at league but complete shit at osu! You can't see correlation, so you can't even begin to talk about causation.
The streamers play osu! to kill time because they have long queue times. It really has nothing to do with building skill across games.
What is this team-play you speak of? The curse of Yoloq is 0 teamplay premades who think they are god's gift to Valoran.Ceph23 wrote:
I'm sure that osu! Can improve mouse skills but not significantly. The best way to improve is to continue to play the game.
Also all MOBA requires good teamplay. Always. So if you're looking to improve in this game, I would suggest working on good team communication and not focus on mouse skills. Mouse skills come naturally IMO.

I have found that Osu! helps with reaction time, but if you want to get better at League, best thing to do is play it. There is no magic spell that will make you a pro overnight.
That or spend a week on Dota 2 next time you are banned. That helps with unlocked camera playing and last hitting.
