How to Win Your Lane (Simple yet Effective Tips)

1v1 Mechanics

Dodging your opponent's abilities, taking advantage of their abilities' cd's, harassing, and landing your skills are all part of 1v1 mechanics that you need to greatly increase your chance of winning your lane.

Csing

Csing is very underrated. A lot of players think getting kills will help you win your lane and oftentimes that is correct. But, if neither you nor the opponent has kills/assists, out csing them will help you win the lane.

Generally, 15 cs equals a kill. Meaning, if you have 15 cs or more, it's equivalent to having a kill over your laner.

Warding/Map Awareness

That prevents you from getting ganked and you will be able to all-in the opponent without worrying about getting ganked.

You will also be able to follow up a lot better when your jungler comes to gank your lane.

Playing Safely/Tower Hugging

General Rule of Thumb: if you are low in HP, you should back because you are not even going to cs when you are low and it's way better to miss out on the exp than to get champions like or fed.

I see way too many people wanting to dive when their enemy is low in health. If you are the one who's tower hugging and you know your laner will dive you, have summoner spells such as and ready so you outplay them or dodge their main ability while they are slowly killing themselves thanks to your tower.

**TL;DR **

Let them outplay themselves.

In Closing

If you do not know the match up and you're playing ranked, I suggest playing safely/tower hugging until your jungler comes and ganks you because no one wants to see the enemy mid laner go 10/0 the first 15 minutes because of you.

Or if you are good enough you could be the one with the 10/0 score and stomp on everyone else.

Whatever your game plan is for every game, as always, Have Fun and Good Luck :D
