LANING PHASE
Explanation VOD STRENGTH SYNERGY BEST SUPPORT SYNERGY GAMEPLAN HOW TO TRADE WHEN TO ROAM? [3]
Aphelios Weak Both [4] Lulu Milio Nautilus Thresh Braum Avoid big level 1 fights (weak) Make sure Aphelios can farm, play for CS
Fight with blue gun or red/white. Purple = gank
Utilize green gun range (vs weak botlane) Wait til blue gun to play aggro and purple
to set up ganks.
(HARD) With blue gun = waveclear Next 2 waves non-cannon and enemy Tahm Kench Alistar Renata Blitzcrank botlane is an enchanter/mage
Ashe Strong Both [5] Milio Karma Seraphine Soraka Thresh You can fight early for prio and control. Range supp: stack and punish enemy under
tower (build waves) Melee supp: crash into bounceback = freeze or gank setup / roam with crashing waves
Make sure you gain bush control. Ping to fight your Ashe, make sure once you have control you don't overcommit. Play with control / waves.
(HARD) If Ashe builds statik its very easy to roam. Next 2 waves non-cannon and enemy botlane is an enchater/mage
Braum Tahm Kench Nami Neeko Zyra
Pyke Rumble Janna Leona Lux
Caitlyn Strong Range CC [6] Lux Neeko Karma Morgana Thresh VERY SIMPLE: you play for towers / plates Lane dominant champion Once bot tower is gone, you rotate to the next
Use range advantage to control early lvl Wave control and zone enemies / poke Punish enemy trying to farm minions
(DON'T) Not recommended to roam
Roam if Caitlyn is behind / useless Braum Milio Bard Zyra Nami
TIP: get demolish if possible
Cassiopeia Weak Engage Rell Nautilus Pyke Leona Maokai AVOID EARLY FIGHTS TIL LEVEL 2/3 Cassio needs mana wait after first base
(survive)
You can all in level 2 with CC Support Pay attention to Cassio mana before
engage
(MEDIUM) Once she has 1 item you
free roam whenever especially when Alistar Thresh Pantheon Nami Amumu enemy botlane is enchanter/mage
Corki Strong Engage Nami Nautilus Rell Leona Alistar You can fight early for prio and control Crash into bounceback = freeze or gank setup / roam with crashing waves
Make sure you gain bush control. Pay attention to Corki Q and W CD
(EASY) Once Corki is level 6 you can
roam any time, before make sure Pyke Blitzcrank Pantheon Elise Rakan that you roam after cannon wave
Draven Strong Engage Pyke Nautilus Rell Thresh Pantheon Fight early waves = you win Crash => bounce back => freeze enemy botlane NEVER PERMA PUSH WAVES WITH DRAVEN
Make sure 100% you gain bush control. Zone the enemy with FOG pressure
in lane or in the river (enemy tribush)
(HARD) When wave crashes or
the next 2 waves are non-cannon Blitzcrank Renata Neeko Taric Leona Better if enemy botlane has no CC
Ezreal Strong Both Karma Braum Pyke Rakan Nami Left click and see if he is stacking passive level 1 (early) Q the wave for prio and level 2 control. Range = poke / Melee = look to roam
You can look for early fights once
you get level 2 control. All in are good
if Ezreal can follow.
(EASY) Good waveclear, can farm
safe from far away and has escape Bard Leona Elise Pantheon Neeko
Hwei Weak Engage Nautilus Leona Rell Alistar Maokai Mage = weak til level 3 Roam whenever you can or look to all in. Concede prio early most likely
Once Hwei is level 3 you can look to all in CAN'T DO LONG TRADES Wait for Hwei CD to be back
(EASY) Once Hwei has "Lost Chapter" he doesn't exist, feel free to roam
Thresh Nami Pantheon Amumu If you have kill potential look for it
Jhin Strong Both Karma Soraka Nautilus Rell Pantheon Get prio. Jhin is very bad at hitting towers, don't play for platings as main goal. Jhin can spam Q on the wave for early prio. Range supp = poke / deny CS Melee supp = crash and freeze on bounce or use it to impact the map
Pay attention to when he needs to reload. Last bullet = more damage to low HP (!) W roots on your damage (!) When Jhin has 1 bullet, short trade When Jhin has finish reload, long trade
(EASY) Once Jhin has some AD
(first base) you can roam any time. Danger if the enemy is playing CC
support and there is a cannon wave
crashing. Jhin can waveclear with Q
and set traps to clear as well.
Thresh Morgana Leona Blitzcrank Neeko
Pyke Rumble Janna Bard Lux
Zyra Trundle Vel'koz Elise Mel
Jinx Weak Enchanter [7] Lulu Milio Thresh Karma Tahm Kench Prio with Jinx Q, if weak lane, just farm.
If no jungle attention try to base on crash,
its ok to lose 1 normal wave for a good base.
If I have lane control, play around waves.
If enemy is winning just look when they missposition to get trades.
(HARD) Next 2 waves non-cannon and
enemy botlane is an enchanter/mage. Braum Alistar Nautilus Rakan Janna If Jinx is not win condition and behind
Kai'Sa Depends Engage Rell Leona Nautilus Alistar Maokai Careful with early trades in lane. You can look to all in if Kai'Sa can hit, punish
enemy missposition.
Kai'Sa Q is very weak when there is a wave and OP in isolation. CC => Kai'Sa W + Q iso = GG
(MEDIUM) Once she has 1 item you
free roam and enemy bot can't dive. Pantheon Rakan Pyke Shen Camille (EASY) If she build "Statik"
Kalista Strong Engage Taric Nautilus Thresh Blitzcrank Renata Fight early waves = you win (not vs Draven) Crash => bounce back => freeze enemy botlane NEVER PERMA PUSH WAVES WITH KALISTA
Make sure 100% you gain bush control. Zone the enemy with FOG pressure
in lane or in the river (enemy tribush)
(HARD) When wave crashes or
the next 2 waves are non-cannon Neeko Leona Rell Pantheon Braum Easy if enemy botlane has no CC
Karthus Depends Engage Pyke Nautilus Leona Pantheon Rell You can fight early, if he has Exhaust better Once Karthus has some components you can
roam. You can all in CC and look to kill.
All in and after CC fall back, if you are winning pretty hard the trade you can
continue.
(EASY) Once Karthus has "Lost Chapter" feel free to roam. Janna Thresh If you have kill potential look for it
Kog'Maw Weak Enchanter Lulu Milio Thresh Alistar Taric Avoid early fights in general play for CS.
If enemy botlane is weaker you can look to get
lane control. Paired with enchanter play with W.
You HAVE TO play around W of Kog'Maw. W up = trade W down = don't trade
(HARD) Next 2 waves non-cannon and
enemy botlane is an enchanter/mage. Braum Zilean Nami Soraka Janna If Kog is not win condition and behind
Lucian Depends Both Milio Nami Braum Nautilus Taric Weak level 1 in general. Have to wait for level 3. Strong when wave is bounce or building wave. Rotate with prio, pointless to play for tower.
Playing Nami or Milio, buff and he plays. CC supports wait for enemy missposition
and then you can punish.
