your relative mobilities, strength in 1v1 (if they turn and fight or you catch up), your strength in 2v2, 3v3, XvX's as you expect them to arise, what you can do if you stay in your lane and push (are you a slow pusher or fast, if their jungler holds at tower vs you how worthwhile will him being there vs you being there be in terms of teamfight presence, can your jungler do anything in jungle while he's there, etc.), are all important factors to consider. lastly, your communication (if you're on vent or your teammates are mapaware, they will play accordingly; however, if they cannot defend themselves at tower or will have to give up objectives in adapting, then you probably want to come after having taken the above into consideration) is usually the deciding factor in what to do; if its in solo queue and you don't follow or spam enough pings that even the most map inaware pubbie will notice, you might eat a load of blame and proceed to lose morale and even the game. in terms of blanket advice though, it's not bad to follow at first, and then get a sense of when coming is a waste of time and when it's very effective. | ||

If you can't push your lane quickly, then you're wrong in not following. Even if you take the turret, you're just depriving yourself of farm if you can't safely push the lane even further. The situation in which you shouldn't follow is so few you might as well make sure someone isn't fighting 2v1. No they're not. There are lots of times where one of the following is true: 1) The laner can win a 1v1 if they ambush you in a brush on your way to the fight. 2) The enemy laner misjudged how much difference he can make and is leaving to a fight he won't get to in time. 3) There's someone on the map not accounted for, and you could very easily be ambushed Xv1 while crossing the map. The situations where you shouldn't follow are by no means uncommon. It might be correct more often to follow (though I question if that's even the case), but not overwhelmingly so, and it's important as a player to learn when it's correct to do so. Exercise your own judgment, make mistakes, and learn from them. The one thing I will agree with on is that people err far more often on the side of not following than they do the other way round. | ||

Don't care whether you're pushing hard or just last hitting, you're still getting an advantage while the other laner is roaming and doing nothing with it. Incidentally, if they shove the lane before leaving, and it's shoving to your side hard enough, you'll often deny them more CS by just last-hitting and letting their creeps kill yours, rather than trying to counterpush it really hard. | ||

This is one of the best EU teams going under radar for over a year. They haven't given much shit for tournament play. But they are there all the time with just some short breaks (and name changes). I have no idea how will they do in offline event. AND They are kinda unpredictable team cause they can easily win with EU best of the best and next game lose to some scrubs. But they are still there. Actually I think there is just 1 team better then them and it's aAa which also qualified for Kiev. Also really surprised by mtw AL performance. Hope this team is stable enough to not change their line-up too much. | ||

He has more minions = he gets denied more because his minions kill yours. If he pushes with a huge minion wave and you choose not to clear it fast and counterpush, you can instead lasthit and balance the wave in front of your tower appropriately which gives you a further advantage when he returns to lane. You wont deny him as much by counterpushing because it's gonna take about 2 waves to reach his tower, which is plenty of time to return to lane and get all that experience and gold that he would've otherwise missed out on. So basically they become miles behind the longer they let you deny, rather then let you push. Also, staying in lane 2v1 is a disadvantage because you're getting reduced experience while ALSO missing all experience in another lane. If you sit in mid lane continuing to try to make a gank work, you're going to fall behind 100%. If you're pushing mid it's different, but we're talking about roaming.

If the lanes had responded to the missing Gragas and sat back in their lanes/fell off tower Gragas would have fallen behind because of missed exp/gold, but they made bad decisions and Gragas got kills and continued to snowball off of that advantage. Therefore following him around to stop 3v2 situations would have been the better move, but with a more aware team you can just sit in lane and gain an advantage. | ||

Teamfight at Dragon. What is HSGG doing? That's right. Farming. I wouldn't take it too serious if someone says something that clearly contradicts his own actions he got known for. | ||
