Losing control of a wave with AP Kog'maw or Orianna or Ziggs?

Like what're they gonna do pre-6 when Renekton's slicing through the minions and creeps and just chunking them whenever they go to last hit, or Riven comboing them between level 2-6 and making them blow their mana pool (or even teleport) to remain in lane against her. Heck, Shyvana can probably come back now, get BotRK first against them and just watch them burn alive to her.

Hell, Diana can probably come back now in the AP top lane meta, like imagine her with RoA + Lich Bane in any team fight in the level 8-13 range, she'd wreck all these squishy ADCs with her dive. I can imagine it now: RoA > Lich Bane > Zhonyas > Randuins > BV with CDR or M.Pen boots. And if the mid laner's Yasuo or Ori? Free knockup or sweet ball delivery system.

I don't think zed does well against ori, if anything yasuo should be a better matchup in this than zed

Doesn't help that Zed's ult gets double shield-blocked.

Unless your enemy has no waveclear it's pretty easy to happen yes.Keep in mind this is a 2k cost item that gives you no mana regen and you have to get it first.A lot of things need to happen to make it a safe buy.

Well, Orianna always has the option to defensive ball curl by maxing E, she's almost unkillable and can just ZZZ farm.

Or she can go balls to the walls offensive. Puns so intended.

Shove waves hard safely, then when you finally outshove your opponent, roam like a boss.

TLDR: Kill creeps faster than other guy kills creeps from safety of tower better than other guy.

I hate the popular top laners right now.

Laning against Mao, Graga, Nid, etc is ridiculous. All my favorite champions just get rolled. lol. these three so safe, scale well, have ridiculous sustain, and bully the crap out of everyone else. Its dumb.

How to instantly be better at mid lane:

Place a ward in the middle of your lane.

You need to avoid fighting 100%, particularly after 6. Hide somewhere and let him shove if you think you can't out trade him or you will get all-in'ed and die.

RoA Diana? She scales infinitely better off resistances than health and you REALLY want Zhonyas to start teamfighting.
