Lanes by themselves push back and forth. Go into a custom game and stay mid. After a while, you'll see inhibs being destroyed on the side lanes.

Other than that, banner of command can push lanes. If you're playing against someone that knows how to start a slow push, maybe they did that really quick.

13ennetto's statement is true. There is no mystery here.

YOu need to pay attention to how the lanes work. For the most part lanes push for a number of reasons and I'll try and get them in the "highest priority" first:

  1. Wave is being shot by tower against an equal power wave. This results in it pushing against you because it gives the enemy minions a smaller distance to walk to reach the rest to wipe yours out.

  2. First cannon to die. In waves of equal strength the cannons rule. The first cannon to die will dictate how it pushes. This ties into number 1 since if you are pushing against the enemy their cannon should reach the wave first and start the pile up earlier for them.

  3. THe lane with the most minions. This one is simple.

It seems like you need to work on lane control. Here are a few things you can do to help:

  1. Kill all, but 3 castor minions. This will actually let the lane slow push in your favor until someone stops it. Typically towers alone can't turn this if you do it right because they will fall.

  2. Full reset. This is essentially when the minions will go to an even point on the map. there are equal numbers of minions that are always crashing into each other.

  3. focus minions to get them to push. Sounds odd, but if you watch the LCS players will try to get the wave to push to them to freeze it. THis is accomplished by taking minion aggro and making them run into your wave so they all focus on 1 minion killing it fast and making the lane push to you.

Hope these help
