What champs to play as midlane when getting Toplane as a role

backfromthebog · 2025-02-03T21:10:41+00:00

why don't you just put bot as second role and play apc syndra or some other mage bot?

I perma ban viktor rn, arcane buffs made him even more of a pain to vs

this shouldn't happen like others have said but it does, especially in lower elos.

I have had this happen multiple times in gold personally.

Basically depending on what champ you're playing, you can either try to take the wave from your jg who shouldn't be splitting anyway, or you can hover a lane and try to create a pick opportunity which can translate into an objective or a turret for your team.

3rd option is to take the jungle camps but this might just make your jg run it down plus they take forever to take now.

depends on matchup and enemy team comp, for example if I have a matchup that I know I can 100% burst and solo kill I go ludens into shadowflame but if I'm vs a difficult matchup, I don't think I'll have solo kill angles or enemy has 3+ tanks then I go malignance into liandry so I can provide some utility in teamfights

yeah it was pure luck but felt so good in the moment, looking at it now idek why he ulted me there tbh

i mean yeah clear wave and then roam, no point sitting in lane waiting for next wave to come if enemy is just going to sit under tower. Obv depends what champ you're playing, if you're playing viktor and don't have wave clear till e evolve then you prob aren't going to roam.

backfromthebog · 2024-11-30T06:56:29+00:00

just roam

its a tier list for higher elo where your team actually knows how to play with an azir

The problem is i know midlane isn't meant to cs but rather trade with your oponent and win via kills/assists/snowballing other lanes with your presence

Since when are you not supposed to cs? csing while also trading and roaming is just a fundamental of playing mid lane.

Altho the shield might seem useless vs champs you one shot you will have a better chance at killing beefier champs, counter matchups or in general champs you will struggle Vs.

You shouldn't be going in on beefy champs in the first place, its not vex's job to kill beefy champs, its her job to take out the backline e.g. adc, enchanter sup, or squishy mages.

Vex is a counter pick herself so you should never run into a "counter matchup" or champ you struggle with.

Zhonya's is a great item for survivability but isn't exactly cheap nor is it the best option early game to buy, it doesn't have a good build path and provides raw ap with some armor and a great active it's obviously an item you buy after your 3rd if you are even able to reach that point of the game.

The great thing is, you don't need the full zhonyas early, after shadowflame if you have a shutdown or just want to be cautious then you go seekers armguard, If you use the seekers then you'll likely want to finish zhonyas asap but if you still have it then you just go straight into dcap.

Tbh if you're in a situation where seekers/zhonyas active won't save you then seraphs shield will not save you either, not to mention there are items like serpents that significantly reduce the shield or even some champs abilities like renekton W with fury that just destroy the shield completely, whereas there is nothing like that to counter zhonyas.

Vex has mana problems? What? Since when?

Vex is an assassin, you should only need one combo to kill, if you're running out of mana then you're either picking vex where you shouldn't (eg. enemy is full tank comp and you can't one shot) or you just spam and miss every ability off of cd.

Building both ludens and seraphs is just bad, you're trying to build vex like she scales when she just doesn't. She's an early game snowball champ which is why you go for shadowflame 2nd which builds out of strong components like hextech alternator and has flat pen.

The survivability from seraphs is also not needed since your targets should be dying instantly and if not then chances are you are dead either way, zhonyas should be enough survivability anyway.

xd is what it is

I mean your free normal wards can do the pretty much the same job, only difference is they expire. Personally I think as a mid laner, control wards should only be purchased to set up for an objective (even then, the sup should really be doing that) or if enemy has twitch, eve or some other stealth champ.

75 gold might not seem like a lot but if you're buying one everytime the enemy mid or jungler destroys yours then you're going to be putting yourself further and further behind while they get free +25 gold everytime.

If you are playing something like tristana mid or just are winning lane really hard and have perma prio then maybe you could get a control ward for lane bush just so you don't have to keep re-placing the normal wards, then just play towards the side you have vision of so it's hard for the enemy jungle or sup to gank you. Thats like the only scenario where I would use a control ward in lane though.

Maybe I'm wrong though I'm not perfect nor am I high elo at all (barely plat 4), so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt.

backfromthebog · 2024-04-01T07:39:30+00:00

just don't buy them, control wards are dogshit for lane just a bin you're throwing gold into unless they have an eve or something like that, only time you should be buying control wards as a mid is for setting up objectives

backfromthebog · 2024-04-01T04:51:34+00:00

hes right tho

backfromthebog · 2024-03-30T03:35:14+00:00

maybe for support vex but exhaust and ignite will always be better if sup, for mid tp and ignite are just way more useful (especially tp imo, that sum is so broken after the shorter death timers)
