Help on 1-3-1 splitpush execution? (Premade 5's Team)

My concern is that when sending 3 teammates mid, they will be dove. What is the counter to this scenario? Do I simply push out mid with the whole team before splitting up? Wave clear from great distances with + or something of the sort? Do I initiate the 1-3-1 when they CAN'T dive my 3? What is the alternative if they can dive my 3? What is the solution here? Do you outpush their mid rush and get 2 inhibs while the enemy team takes one mid? Any tips would be appreciated.

Everything NM1010 said. Here's a decent video on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQsQAHOIP6E

You either want a stupid amount of disengage/cc/aoe damage Janna Nautilus Gragas Orianna or a very high amount of wave clear Varus Sivir Ziggs . You execute it differently depending on which one you have, to simplify it you basically want the person that stops the dive at their maximum effective range so they are the hardest to dive. You also want good side wards to stop a flank.

Also remember in any 1-3-1 the 3 should 100% be focused on wavelclearing and only focus champions if they have high mana, low cooldown harass or if they are stopping a recall. Your job as the 3 isn't to fight it is to stall for your split pushers.
