🛡️ Key Abilities and Combos Awareness

Understanding and anticipating the enemy mid-laner's key abilities or combos is crucial. For example, preemptively moving to dodge Kled's E and Q combo or Syndra's EQ combo allows you to play more aggressively and punish them. Knowing their win conditions and most important abilities can turn the tide in your favor. Effective anticipation and punishment of missed abilities ensure you capitalize on your opponent's weaknesses.

⚔️ Utilizing Jungler for Dives

Winning trades and coordinating with your jungler for dives can create significant advantages. Ping your jungler early to set up dives, especially when you have a wave crashing. This strategy works even in lower ELOs if communicated early. Successful dives can lead to free kills, CS denial for the enemy mid-laner, and overall game control. Proper communication and timing with your jungler are key to maximizing these opportunities.

🚑 Surviving Ganks and Maintaining Lane Pressure

Surviving ganks is critical. Use potions to maintain health, making it harder for the enemy to kill you. Properly identifying and focusing on the biggest threat during a gank can make the difference. For instance, in this scenario, using stuns effectively against Viego ensured survival. Pulling pressure from the enemy jungler while surviving ganks leads to advantages for your teammates and yourself, such as gaining experience faster and allowing your jungler to get ahead.

💰 Maximizing Gold and Experience Gains

Mid-laners often roam at bad times, which can be punished by staying in lane and focusing on pushing waves and taking towers. In this example, staying mid and pushing while the enemy roamed resulted in a significant gold lead. By prioritizing wave management and tower damage, you can consistently gain more gold and experience than your opponent. This approach helps in creating a substantial advantage, contributing to overall game dominance.

hey everyone to climb in this game you

need to be outclassing the opposing mid

laner in most of your games

if you can't consistently be the mid

difference it's impossible

this could mean having more gold more

pressure more impact mid diff can mean a

bunch of different things so today I'm

simply going to give you five different

ways to be the mid diff that you can

apply it right away in any ELO

especially below Masters and by the way

the preseason is the best time to focus

on learning and improving with there

being no risk of losing your precious LP

you can be free to try new things make

mistakes and learn from them treat the

preseason like your Goku entering the

hyperbolic Time Chamber that way when

the new season starts you're ahead of

the competition and climbing ranks

becomes a breeze this is why it's the

perfect time to join us on our platform

at skill cap through the best courses

out there to teach you how to destroy

solo queue and climb stupidly fast we

also provide skill insurance if you

don't significantly improve when

actively using skill cap you can claim a

full refund so check us out after this

alright the first way to guarantee

midday is to constantly have mid prior

this is something I have taught in many

videos but by constantly pushing and

having mid prior you get loads of

benefits in fact in this play you can

see two different things that I get from

it I do a standard three-wave crash for

the first three waves of the game

putting a big wave under club's Tower so

he's stuck farming it I then use my mid

pryo to take a recall and grab a tear so

this is the first benefit right away I

get to take a recall where I won't lose

anything and we'll come back to Lane

with an item advantage of course as rise

buying a tier doesn't give me a huge

advantage or anything but if I was a

Fizz and I could reset and grab a dark

seal that's pretty huge or getting

another long sword on Zed or something

but after recalling because I crashed a

big wave as I'm coming back to Lane I

see hecarim cross their mid I still have

mid prior so I can go right into our

jungle I catch hecarimado Raptors with

my cane here as well and we start

chasing them down hecarim runs away but

his mid laner that tried to help him

just ends up dying

now if we look at the Wave It's pushing

to me and didn't crash kled doesn't have

TP so he's going to be bleeding CS the

entire time he's dead basically his Lane

is actually over from this this was

literally mid div just by playing the

matchup properly at the start so I could

crash waves and get mid pryo then use

the prio for a reset and to denying

invade from the enemy jungler alright

moving on to the second way to guarantee

mid-diff for this one I want you guys to

think about exactly what the enemy mid

laner's most important ability or combo

is and constantly be aware of that

during your lane just one combo or

ability that's it for example in this

one as risers kled I know that kled's

win condition is to jump in with E and Q

so that needs to be in the back of my

mind at all times I need to be

preemptively moving and anticipating

when he's going to do it you can do the

same with syndra's EQ or zweq combo if

you anticipate it and then Dodge it from

there you want to play much much more

aggressive and punish it I'm slow

pushing towards Club right now and while

I'm csing I'm just paying attention to

him to see if he's looking to jump in

and it does seem that way so you'll see

a bunch of preemptive movement from me I

walk towards him then click away just

trying to bait his one combo it works

perfectly as I preemptively moved to the

side and he jumps in with E and Q and he

misses I did not react to that I was

preemptively moving now I just need to

all in and punish it

just keeping in mind enemy mid laners

win condition and most important ability

will go a really long way more examples

would be fizzy or LeBlanc W when those

are down these Champions are much weaker

and you need to punish them when they go

for last hits and when they try to fight

you alright moving on to the third way

to be the mid difference this one is

simple and it won't work every single

time but when it works it's big for this

one you need to be winning trades and

when you are going to be crashing away

soon you need to Ping your jungler to

come dive enemy mid it won't work every

time just because your jungler won't

listen every time but I found even in

low ELO if you ping them early they will

come dive as it's just a free kill for

them don't expect them to have the map

awareness to come without pinging though

this is the last example from this rise

game you can see it worked perfectly

here I'm slow pushing and Collette is

dismounted from the trades I've been

winning so I ping my cane to come dive I

could dive this myself but I might as

well make it easier we dive the and

get the free kill and now he loses all

that CS as well the reason this is so

important is jungle is a role that plays

off of winning lanes and can make plays

around laners that are winning trades it

doesn't matter if you're 0-4 if you're

winning trades and have the enemy shoved

in that's a play your jungler can make

in low ELO they just need a little

guidance sometimes from pings you need

to Ping early though not right as you

crash the wave ping an entire wave

before you know you're gonna crash this

can turn into an even bigger play a lot

of the time too when you do this the

enemy jungler might make the mistake of

trying to gank you and because you

called your jungler early you can easily

kite to him and win the 2v2 or your

jungler can counter gank either way

because you're winning trades the 2v2 is

an easy win and this is literally what

mid diff is you're winning mid so your

jungler can make easy plays and abuse

that broken ass roll anyways moving on

to way number four to guarantee mid-diff

this is a big one and it's something a

lot of players don't think about this is

the reason when I Smurf it can seem like

my teammates are better than your

teammates I walk into Lane and enemy ADC

jumps in on me with w and I flash right

away I wasn't actually in danger of

dying here but I didn't want to lose a

ton of Health to the point where I can't

Lane so I flash and it really sucks to

lose flash level 1. then at level 3

viego flashes on me and I barely survive

I didn't do anything to survive this

right well I survived because of

something lowly the players never do and

it drives me crazy I simply use my

goddamn potions you guys love to sit in

Lane with 50 or 60 health does syndra

have kill pressure on me here when I'm

at six percent HP no but what am I

gaining by not using my potion the more

health I have the less likely I will die

to a gank using my potions literally

made the difference here anyways we're

not done there I TV backed the lane and

as I'm pushing I get ganked Again by

viego from behind now surviving ganks

can be tricky and it's all about

understanding who the biggest threat is

in this case it's viego because he

doesn't run out of damage he's an ad

Champion with low cooldowns syndra will

use all of her bursts then have no

damage left

so I put my w in a spot where viego has

to walk through it to hit me so he gets

stunned they almost ended up killing me

but because I use my stun properly I

could barely survive alright so the

reason it's so crucial to survive ganks

is that all the time the enemy jungle

weighs trying to gank you is time they

can be using farming or ganking your

teammates so if you pull pressure and

enemy jungler ganks and you survive you

will notice your teammates seem better

your jungler gets Tempo advantages and

gets more CS in the enemy jungler your

other laners don't die the ganks ETC

also when enemy jungler ganks you they

are soaking experience from their mid

laner in this game for example viego

ganked me a lot and the enemy Nami even

came mid so I actually hit level six

before syndra did all right and finally

the last way to guarantee midday this

one is basically a way to easily get way

more gold than the enemy mid laner in

lower evos but even in Diamond mid

laners roam at very bad times but it

goes unpunished too often

in this game I'm on Jin mid versus Ed in

the middle of a trade with him he swaps

to a shadow in the ultimate this gave me

a hint that I was getting ganked so I

kite down and sure enough Riven was

ganking me from top side first I W

behind me as Zed is coming out of alt so

it would root him right away and give me

move speed so because of that I can

easily survive the gank but I'm forced

to run the long way around the mid

because Riven for whatever reason is

still chasing me while this is happening

though a fight is going down a bot Lane

so I could just run there right away

right I would normally love to go by

here since the enemy team is low but my

top laner doesn't have tpf and Raven is

here so we'll be outnumbered I know

Riven and Zed will probably run to bot

so I quickly run to Mid and start hard

shoving

as expected Raymond and Dad roamed bot

Lane and by the time Zach got back I got

mid Tier 1 Tower and shoved the wave so

I could reset when I got ganked I was a

thousand gold ahead of Zen and by the

time he got back I was 2 000 gold ahead

just off one room

I got a 1 000 gold lead just because I

didn't know

you guys can do this constantly don't

get baited into roaming when you can get

more gold and experience most of the

time just by shoving and taking place or

Towers

that's the thing with League to be the

mid-diff like I said earlier it can come

down to a bunch of different things but

just having more gold than the enemy

made consistently goes a long way and

they make so many mistakes in diamond

and below that you have lots of ways to

get a gold lead

and finally if you noticed this play

also had what we talked about earlier I

survived the gank from Riven so she got

no gold for me and during that time our

top laner also got the entire top Tower

with plates so I'm helping my top get

ahead just by surviving the gank alright

guys so these are the five ways to

guarantee mid-diff these are the things

you can apply right away and should get

real results with them but that's going

to bring us into this video we hope you

enjoyed it and thanks for watching
