Im not very good at this game so I just want some advice on how to play Glaive well

Did you try reading glaive guides here? They are immense resource to new players, or for people who want to get better at the game. Most things you might need to know about glaive is that he is:
Flexible, and could go Weapon Power or Crystal power and Support the team with his AoE Abilities.
He is a super strong kitty so try act like one, I. E. Hide in bushes and either wait for an enemy, or hide in the lane bushes until you're sure you can punt the enemy into the turret or help a teammate by making the enemy's run futile as they try to run as fast as they can only to get punted stunned and boom dead. Also try to build your bloodsong stacks in the most efficient way you could think of(this one is of the players mindset of course) . Also here's a thing about glaive, the longer the game lasts the stronger he becomes, in early game he isn't that much of a shiner but can assist very well. Now into endgame he is an absolute beast with incredible assist power (well not as much but I mean you're a buff cat with your end game build, you're going to hit hard) Good luck and Cheers!

Afterburn is can be amazing if used the right way. I recommend hiding in bushes, then using Afterburn to push your enemies toward turrets or allies who can keep the enemy there like Ringo or Catherine. If there is not an ally like that there, using Twisted Stroke or Bloodsong (If Level 6+) to finish your enemy off. Twisted Stroke is great once you overdrive it, but you shouldn't really follow the rec build, and go super weapon tanky with stuff like Sorrowblade and Tension Bow. You'll do so much burst damage, and believe me, your battles won't be very long.

I'm no expert, but hopefully this helped!
Cheerio!

Check my guide out for a build and tips. I reccomend using afterburn in ganks and escapes. Use bloodsong only with 20 stacks and in a team fight. Check out more tips on my guide. Malgus 23's unbeatable glaive

Just stay away from tea fights early on. If your team is fighting early they shouldn't. Since extremely weak early game really focus on juggling hard.

Late game you should try to initiate/ own though since your items are all built.

Have fun!

Early game glaive is really powerful in team fights with the afterburn + twisted stroke
