Tips for farming as melee mid

Beate Uhse·Sep 24, 2017·2 votes·1,509 views

I wanted to play some more midlane which i mained back in season 6 (back then i was a beginner).. I like to play champs like Fizz or Ekko but my problem is that especially as Ekko i just cant get a good cs counter.. I end up with like 100 farm at minute 18-20 and i think my main problem is that i can't cs in the early game cause i would eat so much harass. If i try to farm with my q i push the lane and end up with losing more farm. Any tips to improve my farm as melee midlaner?

Try to get cs while they're cs'ing, if they're autoing a minion they can't auto you.

Ekko's early is fairly powerful, so you can try to push them out of lane and zone them instead with good trades.

In a melee vs ranged match up its important to access how your opposition is playing the lane. if they are playing super aggro you need to know how to CS under tower. if they let you farm its important to not overely show because as a melee it is very easy to over extend. If they are harassing you with skills fake go for CS dodge the skill then punish them. after a few punishes they may respect you. Most melee mid laners can kill the ranged ones around level 3-4 if they stay healthy so focus on staying healthy and look for kills. when they are dead they cannot deny you cs!
