# The mirror rule If a fight is breaking out somewhere on the map, ask yourself one question: > Can I positively change the outcome if I go to it directly? If the answer is yes, by all means, go for it. But if it is no, for any reason (not enough time, too many enemies, not safe because no vision…), look for counterplays somewhere else: maybe you can push the top tower instead of helping at drake, or do a sneaky baron if you are a Master Yi. Collapsing on a fight after most of your allies are dead will almost never allow you to turn it over. while looking for other opportunities will open the door for other plays down the road.
