Role Guide
The center of the map โ roam to all sides, carry the game, and control tempo. Mid laners dictate the pace of every match.
Mid is the shortest lane and closest to all objectives. This gives mid laners the most roam potential โ a strong mid laner impacts all lanes while winning their own. Your position on the map matters as much as your damage.
After pushing your wave, roam to bot or top. A successful roam creates kills, resets wave states, and builds your gold lead. Coordinate with your jungler for dive pressure. Always shove your wave before roaming.
Fast push and shove before roaming. A pushed wave forces your opponent to choose between following you and losing minions. Freeze when ahead to deny CS. Slow push before Dragon to crash a big wave.
Mid trades are often short burst combos โ land your full rotation and disengage. Mages poke before all-in. Assassins wait for level 6 to one-shot. Know your all-in timing and your enemy's power spikes.
Assassins (Zed, Katarina) โ roam, pick, snowball. Mages (Syndra, Viktor) โ poke, scale, teamfight. Roamers (Twisted Fate, Talon) โ prioritize side lane impact over lane CS. Control mages (Orianna, Azir) โ zone and teamfight.
Most mid laners are primary damage dealers. Position safely behind your frontline, hit multiple targets with AoE, and use mobility to dodge enemy CC. Survive the engage, then output sustained damage on priority targets.
