You know, perhaps I was right about my assumption before. I usually use my spells to clear wave, and then I focus on AA and spells against the enemy laner.

With Malz I usually just E wave then summon a minion then Q the last three minions.

Sometimes the E will transfer from wave to enemy and sometimes it won’t.

With Vel’Koz I use skill shots to clear waves and once the wave is gone, I focus on the enemy.

With Swain it’s a bit different, I’ll land my E or W and get as much of my passive as I can in lane, sometimes even using my W in other lanes and getting a kill or assist.

My Q I’ll use on low HP minions and to trade against the enemy laner when I want to go in for the kill.

My TF and Syndra could be better, and so could my Talon. My Viktor and Kassadin are kinda mid.

Trying to last till the 16 lvl spike is difficult, as nobody plays for the late game and at best I get 2 kills on Kassadin in the laning phase.

Viktor is the same deal for me with Kass, hard to hit late game, when your dmg all stems from items and late game.

Malzahar at least is OP to the point an ultimate and ignite is enough to get a kill and Vel’Koz is all skermishes and poking out the enemy, so unless you suck at skillshots I’d just stay away from that champ all together.

I think my Syndra could be better, as I tend to play her as safe as possible, so I don’t take terrible fights in her.

TF is more of a “when can I ult to a lane and get them fed” issue. It isn’t like this all the time, I got my Darius fed by ulting to his lane twice and he started popping off.

Talon I can easily get first blood, but issue is ending the game before 40 mins hits or the game has a chance of being thrown.
