A Detailed Diamond Guide on CSing and Wave Control

Hello Everyone,

Proper CSing will get you out of low ELO, but propper Wave Control separates low ELO from high ELO. I've prepared a very in-depth guide on Creep Control. It goes over the following:

CSing Basics
Controlling the Creep Wave
Farming, Last-Hitting, and Pushing
Setting up Ganks via the Creep Wave

Read the full article at Baron v. Squid.

All Feedback is greatly appreciated. Hope this helps!

Thanks, being in bronze 3 I suck at a lot of things, But I already knew some of this stuff, Some I didn't I'll try to remember. tysm

Could you perhaps make an in-depth guide for other things.. such as..

Zoning (Keeping the enemy where you want him)
Trading/calculated aggression (Knowing when to become aggressive, when to poke)
Taking advantage (Like me and my enemy laner gets low, he goes back, should I go back as well or risk trying to get the tower?)
Predicting enemy movement. (landing the skill shots..)

Just overall being the lane bully. I learned the very basics of what these things are from someone who is teaching me, but Im finding it hard to put it into practice. Perhaps there is some advice you could give about these things?

Thanks for reading! I'll remember some of these for my next post. The problem is finding how long your article should be; if I wanted an in-depth article on all of those things it would be a textbook.

Expect a follow-up post about how to couple CSing and wave control with trading.

Hello I have a stupid question

So regarding to the slow push, can this strat only be executed by killing the caster minions? Can it also be executed if you just shove the wave? I know it's different but don't my minions too build up to the enemy's territory and damage enemy towers as well?
