Then our 6-2 first blood double kill solo bot Annie disconnected. I was Gangplank, laned with a first-time Singed who went boots no pots first thing. He ended with the least creepkills of anyone. Kept raging about how "Singed sucks he has like 1 attack his slow is so gay". Their Jax/Sion kept towerdiving to finish him off, and I Parrrleyed one or the other for a 7/0/2 record (with only 30 secs out of lane) by 15 minutes. Kill-trading is great when it's a craptacular Singed dying to feed a mediocre Jax, dying to feed a Pirate. I got Brutalizer before IE and it's a lot better. Avarice Blade is definitely worth it on pirate, too, despite how well he already farms - it's cheap critchance and builds Ghostblade. Anyways, our Jungle Warwick was the only other competent person on our team (our solomid teemo was just stupid most of the time). We managed to ace them 3 times, but usually just Warwick and I were left (they focused Mr. Singed & Mr. Teemo since both were actually squishier than me) and we had just pushed to their inhibitor when the 1/10/18 Singed got bored and disconnected too. 3v5 is not really winnable without a fed Jax or Veigar or someone who can safely pick people off or backdoor or something. We had WW (13/6?) GP (15/2) Teemo (3/8?). One stun. One blind. One squishy rapemachine who could take any two people on their team by himself, even Warwick and Sion. But they were smart and stayed grouped and pushed. Between ult and Parrrley I could usually snipe or at least force away one or two of them but it took the entire team to do that and then we had to retreat or we got wiped. Oh well. | ||

Good times and really cheap for the stats you get. Good point, but don't forget about good old Leviathan. Leviathan makes Mundo happy Mundo 'cause half of more is more sadism heal for Mundo. Now, I have a question regarding a mid matchup for Cho'Gath: Last night, I got beaten in midlane by a Teemo as Cho'Gath, which I found a bit emberassing. The point was, the little bugger had Ignite and Exhaust as summoner spells, which combined with his Blinding dart, make for a nasty combo. He was also not too bad at dodging ruptures, so not all of those landed. He could keep me blinded for six to seven seconds with dart/exhaust, and though I had cleanse, I'd rather save that for when he moves in for the kill with ignite. So what should one do, hide behind minions untill the blind wears off, and then before he can dart again, rupture him, followed up by some vorpal auto attacks? I think that would be best, since if one only ruptures, he can do at least as much damage with his poison, which also never misses. Or, as distilled from the MFing thread (scroll down a bit for the relevant posts), simply practise aiming one's rupture with the help of the tricks mentioned, and then at 6, rupture+feast for either a kill or forcing him to withdraw? Though as also stated, Teleport will pretty much negate the fact that he had to withdraw to heal, but the Teemo I faced didn't have Teleport. Or is Teemo hard enough on Cho in general to call for a laneswitch? | ||

Really it just comes down to practicing, he's pretty easy to deal with if you can disguise your ruptures with auto-attack timings. Playing against Teemo will get you good at doing the rupture sandwich where you put a rupture behind him when he's close and attacking creeps and run towards him at the same time. Usually they're bluffing but if they seem committed you need to evaluate the situation to see if you can kill them. If they get hit by the rupture they will usually run, but don't chase near the tower or to where he can counter-chase you unless you can kill. If they don't run into the rupture, hit them if you can and get out. Remember their tendency and put the rupture just close enough to hit them but still behind them next time and do the same thing. TL;DR: Practice rupture | ||

Bring a harass-immune champ (basically someone with life-steal, aka a jungler). Fiddle, Nasus, WW, Nunu, etc. can all heal from his bombs if you play carefully, and then he's just trading mana for...nothing. | ||

Basically, your partner (who can heal) has to be annoying enough to force themselves as the target. You have to spend a lot of time in the bushes. If you're Shen, you can use your sword throwing thing both to farm (last hit), and to heal (use it on a full big creep, then whack them to heal. Especially good when you're in tower range and can thus sit there). | ||

Zilean versus Zilean is the most entertaining mid matchup I have ever played. | ||

Trade lanes against him if you're squishy/melee/etc. and without a good heal. If you can, get a Soraka in your lane. Soraka >>> Zilean. Failing the above, just kill him. A lot of Zileans get really overaggressive against low-health people, so watch how much damage a bomb can do and be careful and wait. Some people have an easier time against Zil than others - Morgana, Soraka, Shen, Janna... anyone with a shield or heal. Zilean versus Zilean is the most entertaining mid matchup I have ever played. That's the other thing -- if you have a Zilean in your lane...get a Zilean in your lane. Such a weird, obscure matchup. | ||
