What decides the mid lane
A tactical read of the mid lane matchup, written from LaneDiff's champion notes: what each champion threatens, and the one thing to do about it before three minutes. It is analysis, not a match sample, so there is no win rate on this page.
Twisted Fate
mid lane · Roaming assassin
Leaves the lane to kill somewhere else, so tracking and pings are worth more than the wave.
Shove him under tower so he can't roam, and back off whenever he goes missing after six.
Destiny at six turns any losing side lane into a 2v3; TF pays for his roams with a weak lane, so pressure is the tax.
Yasuo
mid lane · Lane bully
Wins the early trades outright and has to be punished on cooldowns instead of fought head-on.
Poke his shield off before trading, and never fight him inside a long minion wave.
Yasuo's passive shield eats the first hit of every trade and minions are his dashes; a broken shield and a thin wave beat him.
