EDIT: There's a lot of stuff you can do with off-lane 2v2 even at a high level, it's just that people have played 1-1-3 for so long that off-lane 2v2 is like a forgotten art. Oh yeah, Lich + 1 is a brutally strong lane in 2v2 or even 2v3 | ||

While they have "flash-farm" abilities those are tied to very heavy mana consumption which they need a baseline of farm to sustain. Sending them offlane is a great way to neuter them. Adding a support/buddy/ally merely leeches their XP. Lich +1 offlane is sick tho. Only problem is then you have a lich... They actually do pretty ok in that scenario, Necro moreso than DP, because he's a bit less level reliant. Like you can actually just build an early mek on that offlane 2v2 Necro and pretty much just crush fights | ||

A simple solution to lich +1 offlane is for one support to dedicate himself to pulling (thus offsetting the XP loss somewhat, although not for your carry) and the other to rotate to help it's own offlane, making that lane even or favourable. It is quite costly to your carry though since once lich hits level 3 your carry needs like tranquils or a ring of health plus all your support's tangoes to stay on lane. But they still have a lich lol. E: if you mean putting lich IN an aggressive tri thats actually pretty useless as well. Lich doesn't bring enough damage/disable to the lane until level 3 or 4, which while you will hit it first is probably too late since they should be able to punish your other support. Basically, the addition of a support to a lich +1 lane is unlikely to allow it to manfight an opposing trilane, so all it does is leech xp (since you shouldn't be dying with that lane). Bad plan. Your goal is to deny THEIR lane as much farm as possible with lich. Then you add somebody survivable to soak up the XP and farm that comes to the tower (since lich is too vulnerable solo and isn't terribly useful with that farm anyway). No need for a third component. | ||

(me)Getting critted twice in a row from PA just cost me a game! :D Getting a proc on first hit of a 15% chance ability with PRNG happens around 3% of the time. You cannot math it out for both hits since you don't know how many attacks she did before getting the first crit. It could still be 3% if she went through 30 attacks with no crits or could be as low as 0.1% if she just hit a crit before attacking you. | ||
