User guide
Your first review.
Step by step.
A guide to the workspace, from setting up a match to finding your next practice goal.
In this guide
Set up a match
Sign in and choose New match. Complete the blue required fields, including Player Name, then add a short description. Player Name is remembered for future reviews; you can change it for any match.
Set both starting teams and mark your hero as Me. This determines your role and review questions.
Simple mode shows the essentials. Switch to Advanced for optional details such as rank, result, video and temperament. Your choice is remembered in this browser.
Use a YouTube video
In Advanced mode, add the YouTube URL and choose video or replay timestamps. Video timestamps get a play button; replay timestamps do not seek the video. The video window shows the full moment alongside the player. Allow playback once to skip the prompt on later clips in this browser, or choose Keep videos off. Use YouTube settings in the window to change this choice.
Add moments
Choose Add a moment. Set its timestamp, event type and primary decision. Describe what happened, then write one action to practice in Key take-away.
Use Advanced for roster changes and detailed questions. Switching modes keeps your answers. Skip questions you cannot assess; No and 0 are valid answers.
Save moment (or Save changes) returns to your moments. Save and add another starts the next one. Each review holds up to 25 moments.
Drafts and automatic saving
An untouched new match is discarded. Once you start entering details, your draft saves automatically. Saving a moment adds it to the timeline. Check the save status before closing the tab.
Use the notebook editor
Start with Form editor to learn the questions. Switch to Notebook editor when you want to write faster. Both edit the same review, including existing matches, and your editor choice is remembered.
Begin each moment with @mm:ss type. Write what happened, then add :takeaway and your next action. Quotes are optional.
@04:05 ult I forced their support away but missed the elimination. :takeaway Check escape cooldowns before committing. :ult.purpose Secure a pick :ult.enemy-deaths 0
Find fields and move around
- Type
:for suggestions. Tab completes a shared prefix, then cycles choices; Shift+Tab cycles backward. Enter adds a line. Escape lets Tab move focus. - Open Fields & options for questions and allowed values. Choose Insert to add a field on the next line.
- Select a timeline header to jump to its timestamp. On mobile, open Timeline first. Show answers expands a moment’s questions.
- Line numbers mark problems. Open the issue list and select a line reference to fix that field.
Values and roster changes
A value ends at the next :field or line break. Use explicit Yes, No and 0; a blank is unanswered.
:me Ana sets your hero. :allies -Tracer +Ashe and :enemies -Genji +Reaper update the teams from that moment onward. No commas are needed. Your roster determines the available role questions.
Save, sort and finish
Valid notes save after you pause. Save saves immediately. Errors keep your text as a private draft and leave the last valid moments unchanged. Resolve save warnings before closing or continuing on another device.
Sort chronologically orders moments by timestamp while keeping their teams and context. Sorting is manual. To remove a saved moment, delete its block, select Save and confirm.
Match details returns to setup. Done saves and returns to history. Correct unfinished fields before switching editors or finishing. Invited reviewers use the form editor.
Finish a review
Select Done to save and return to Match history. If a moment is open, Done saves it too. Missing required fields or a failed save keep the editor open so you can fix them.
In the form editor, use Save moment or Save changes to finish only the moment, or Save and add another to continue reviewing. An untouched new match is discarded.
Read your timeline
Select a match in Match history to open its review. Moments appear in timestamp order, with event-colored rails and icons. The starting teams and hero swaps provide context.
Descriptions explain what happened; the green rule marks the takeaway. Use Show answers in the side pane, or Answers and Expand all answers on public reviews. Public reviews omit private moment descriptions.
Choose Edit review to make changes.
Choose Your Focus
Select the pin link beneath a saved takeaway to add it to Your Focus. Keep one to three practice goals; you can rewrite each card up to 240 characters without changing the original review.
When you have cards, Your Focus opens first on your next visit. Select Example to jump to the original moment. Edit cards or use the menu to reorder them. Select Done and confirm to remove a card from Your Focus; the original review stays unchanged. At three cards, choose one to replace.
Cards remain until you remove them, even if their source review is deleted or rolls out of history. View source opens the review while it remains available.
Explore Patterns & plan
Choose your filters, review section and question. Select chart points for percentages and sample sizes, toggle answer lines, or open the source moments for context.
Use a history window of 10, 20, 50 or 100 matches. Trends can start after two assessed matches; small samples can change quickly.
Charts summarize the moments you chose to review, not every fight you played or an overall skill rating.
Privacy & profile
Open your profile to set a display name, optional ranks and preferred trend history. Ranks are self-reported. Profiles and matches start private, with separate visibility controls.
Publish a match through its visibility controls and copy its link. Replay codes and videos have separate sharing choices. Published content may appear in search engines.
Your latest 100 matches are kept; older matches roll off as you add more. You can also delete matches yourself. See Privacy for retention and deletion details.
Choose a public username
In your profile, choose an optional Public username. Use 3–30 letters, numbers, underscores or hyphens, starting with a letter. Usernames ignore case and cannot be changed after saving.
Your profile uses /username; public matches use /username/matches/match-id. Choosing a username does not publish your profile or matches.
Share your profile and insights
Choose a public username, enable your public profile and save. Only matches you mark public appear in its match grid.
Separately enable Publish my insights dashboard to share /username/insights. Visitors can filter and explore your published self reviews. Trends need answers in at least two published matches.
Private matches, moment descriptions, temperament, drafts and invited feedback are excluded. Turn off dashboard publishing or make your profile private to hide the dashboard.
