Trying to get back into mid lane (matchup/ counterpick help)

SwiftKitten88··1 votes·230 views

for TLDR scroll down to the "body" if you don't like reading Foreward:

back in season 3 and 4 i was a mid lane main.. mostly with Nidalee and i also did a bit of support/midLux and some supportBlitzcrank in season 4 i also brought nidalee into top and support and picked up Ziggs and started with Khazix jungle and picked up RekSai which when she released at the end of the season

in season 5 with Nidalee thrown into the jungle i kinda became a jungle main, although i really didn't want to as i wanted to do mid lane eventually i left for most of season 5 and came back at the start of season 6 when challenger Nidalee skin first released

since then i have been a jungle main with Nidalee andRekSai and a support secondary with Morgana (which i picked up season 6 and LOVE) with Lux and Blitzcrank on the side but I'm trying to pick my mid lane again. (which i am kinda having trouble with having 2 years of not needing to CS... XD but that's a work in progress..)

** Body:** (aka tldr) right now for mid lane i haveMorgana Lux Ziggs ( lvl 7,6,6 mastery) and i am learning Syndra( lvl 2 mastery) and Orianna (lvl 4 mastery)

my main question is.. are there ANY mid lane champs that counters ALL of these champs

and if i get the opportunity to counter-pick their mid and for the most common enemy mid lane picks which champs out of my pool should i use VS each

Ahri is the queen of mid lane... jack of all trades as an ap mid laner

Orianna Ziggs arent in the best spots due to meta

Anivia is op flavor of month

Well worry about mostly assassins mastery 7 syndra mastery 6 orianna heuheuhe

Well Orianna doesn't really have any hard counters, since she has so much self peel and her own shield. For the rest I'd say you would have trouble vs. a lot of assassins, since they basically counter mages. Take Barrier if you want.

Syndra vs for Ahri Annie Cassiopeia Karthus Leblanc Lux Malzahar Orianna Velkoz Veigar TwistedFate Viktor Because she outranges most of them, or their cc can't go through minions.

Orianna for pretty much all assassins and Veigar Velkoz Xerath Ryze Cassiopeia Annie Azir She's a little outranged by a lot of matchups but she should be ok. Really strong against Zed, since her shield will block most of his ult, and her W will help her run away when she's slowed by a fizz ult.

I HAVENT PLAYED THE ONES BELOW SO IDK MUCH ABOUT THEM

Morgana vs anyone with not insanely fast waveclear, so you can W and then roam such as Ahri Leblanc Ryze Veigar

Lux vs anyone that isn't a huge early game bully or really tanky like Swain Good against Veigar , whoever lands the cc first wins the fight. It's not like shes gonna 1v1 someone before she's level 6.

Ziggs vs All. He has a good escape, he can farm from really far away and clears waves fast. Global ult to pick up free kills from other lanes, long range high damage harass. He has no bad matchups.
