It means you're doing well. There are only a finite number of minions available to a laner in the early to mid game, and in-game variables such as jungle invades, early dragons, and general tomfoolery will affect how much farm you can realistically get.

Possibly relevant. 139 is perfect at 12 minutes according to that chart.
Stay positive!

iirc, the best practicing test is the 200 by 20:00 right?

SOOOOO

Thanks to GhandiEagle I have a Riot Blitz and Arcade Hec skin to give away for any region except EUNE/NA/OCE as I gave those away to TLer friends of mine (and KR apparently doesn't work). I'm just going to post them here so first come first serve. At least let the thread know if you got them, ok?
Entirely up to you guys if you want to take both for a region or not; I got them in a package and gave them away as a package so the choice is yours.

if you're practicing, you might want to aim a bit higher than that, especially if you're going for wraiths too

Well, it all comes down to how much you roam and how much you fight the other laner. I guess 100 by 14 would be more standard, but if you're under no pressure and not roaming then 100 by 12 shouldn't be too hard with some practice. What's important is that you're roaming at the right times to minimize creep loss.

Are you guys talking 'practicing' as starting up a normal (ranked or blind pick) game and only focussing on cs and not worry too much about trading/killing/roaming, or starting up a bot or custom game and just csing for 20 mins straight trying not to miss any?

Keep in mind that you're assuming the creeps instantly arrive in lane ready to be CSed. In reality they take 30 seconds to reach the center of mid lane and often take another 30 seconds to CS if you're not pushing.

That's a bit low I think. 150 by 15 is a better test.

so i think that zed probably has too much in his kit
hai showcased pretty well in the TSM series that a champ that can gapclose WHILE disappearing off the map allows for a bit too much room to counterplay. on some champs it's okay (yi, fizz, shaco kinda but not really even) because they have other weaknesses (no other jumps, mana constraints, inability to farm, what have you)

i mean i always thought zed was too strong but i couldn't really nail down the reason. yeah he does a ton of damage but other champs do too. yeah he's resourceless but other champs are too. yeah he can change positions easily but other champs can too. lee sin had all those features at one point. but having an ability that can negate enemy burst (WHILE blowing you up) is too much

i think changing that (and slightly slightly nerfing his damage) would put zed in a good place. i like having super entertaining super high-skill champs and i'd love for all champs to be on zed's level. but if riot is gonna put all champs at a "balanced" level rather than all champs at a max strength level, he needs these changes

I've hated Zed since he was first released.

Fking Zed mang. Videos like the Bischu or Faker outplays amplify my hate like death mark.

I doubt Zed will ever be balanced. He has all of the "hard to balance" features available besides a global, reset, or free sustain (hello botrk).

Fun event, awesome to meet some TL guys, was really funny to hear them go "you're Ghandi?" TSM played really well until the last game, when they just fell apart. Good event, fun times, a little depressing but oh well ^_^

Your hatred for this champ must be really amazing if you can't appreciate faker outplays .Dunno I've never felt like zed was that op.He is one of the stronger champs but never thought he was a main offender.

Honestly if your gonna practice I would just set this as your benchmark. Shake Obv knows what hes talking about. For people that don't know Shake is Diamond 1 and is a siiiick Ree Singa. I found it odd that some one asked if it was the avg or what pros get. If your setting goals you should set them high.
The more you sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle.

An initial recommended benchmark means a good goal to work towards in a reasonable pace, and after that you just slowly add more. The worst thing you can do when improving is to set a way too high goal. It's like going into a game and being like "Oh, sup. Time to get 250 CS in 18 minutes, we Froggen now!" - something that isn't going to work out anytime soon. It only ends up being frustrating for the person and doesn't really motivate a vast majority of players. Slow (and noticable progress) is significantly more inspiring than "Oh, now I just need 45 more CS at this minute and I've reached my goal...yay..."

I wouldn't really call 100 by 12 minutes a high benchmark.Especially if you are something like ori/kart/diana I'd even go as far to say it's pretty bad.

Honestly, your metric should not be how many CS by X minute, but how much MISSED CS you have based on CS that you attempted to go for. This is harder for you to track (you basically have to keep a mental tally while you play the game). Your goal should simply be never missing a creep kill that you attempted to go for.

Everything else falls under the realm of other skills (e.g. roaming efficiency, winning your lane, choosing an appropriate time to base) and trying to rope your CSing into the single umbrella goal of "farming better" is arguably somewhat counterproductive.

Again, your goal should be 100% of the CS you attempt to get.
