New meta Mid lane smite

So one time I played and accidentally took . But then I realized this was actually a really good option for mid especially on champions that have trouble with mana early game such as or since now you can take blue buff easily now that smite restores health. It adds some nice sustain if you're low on health because you can just go smite scuttle and kill it to get a nice chunk of health. I recommend giving this a try since it basically acts as a and helps you control objectives (Baron,Dragon, and rift herald).

Smite mid.

One reason why item 1402 item 1410 item 1414 gets constantly nerfed or reworked.

Stop it please.....

I hope my opponents all do this so I can so kill them easily since they don't have a combat summoner spell and then I can deny them 3+ waves of experience since they don't have TP.

The point I'm trying to make is that this probably works great against inexperienced players but against more experienced players they will really punish you. There's a reason why people don't do this at higher elo.

I like your creativity but I highly discourage you from trying this in a ranked game.

on champions that have trouble with mana early game such as

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH /panic

-Start flask -Oneshot the wave with the stars -Poke with the stars as well using the flask -Rinse and repeat until lv3 -Push all the way under turret -Recall

CONGRATULATIONS, AOL LANING PHASE IS OVER

-Return to lane after you filled back your hp/mana (it immediately came to mind to use the star voyage thingie, right?) -Build a dark seal and a dorans ring

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU STOPPED LOSING MANA

-Rinse and repeat

Wanna be actually useful besides being a human zzrot like every champion should be after lv7? Instead of watching how shiny the glittering effects of aol are maybe gank top, bot, invade enemy jungle with someone, go take a dragon with someone.

Sincerely, -Someone that gave blue buff to an idiot aol and saw him last hit under turret with autos (missing all the creeps) full mana after lv7 with blue buff on and spamming help pings begging for a gank in a feeding and ungankable lane.

-edit- oh also, picking smite on anything that isn't jungle is an idiot idea, don't do that, just don't.

Smite lanes in meta create an extremely toxic environment. Look back at the days of Ezreal and Orianna mid with smite where they could deal upwards of 100k damage in a 30 minute game.

I think your Jungler might get angry though if you take Blue Buff without their permission or them knowing.

I could see it as viable on say a morgana or azir mid that doesn't need need a second summoner to farm effectively. It might lower your combat stats a little bit BUT it is another smite for objectives and it will net you a lot more sustain than heal. I think we might actually start seeing this in high elo and LCS. Early game you will never miss a cannon ether. PLUS it can give your jungle a huge lead for an early gank.
