What are the best champions for backdooring? I know Yi and Sivir are good at it but is there anyone else that's good at it?

Also is there any advice you guys can give me when I'm back dooring?

Twitch is pretty good at it.
Advice: Have good map awareness. You need to know when to start running. Also know the time and place. If they're in mid fighting your team and you're top lane that might not be the best idea. For one your team will likely lose the team fight, for two they'll then come for you and you'll likely die, thirdly they may not come for you and just push and take some towers themselves which would make it a waste to have taken theirs. Also don't ever do it if you're winning the game. It could throw it for your team.

Well... Those are the basics of it I believe. GL HF and welcome to MobaFire

Thank you Miss Maw, CasterMaster and Arcana3 for the sweet sigs. I'd definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a nice sig.

I found out Volibear is amazing at dropping towers.

Twisted Fate... backdoor/splitpush pro.

Pantheon... Aegis Protection that passive.

Sivir is great because she just kills a wave in a matter of 3-4 seconds.
Maybe Tristana.

Shaco can also send in the clone to tank the damage and backdoor.
+Rep for a cookie.



Thanks to LaCorpse for the sig.

Sivir is great because of her wave clearing and her ult

Tristana because of her Q

Basically any AD carry that's built a phantom dancer

Yorick can take down towers hard if there's an enemy wave by. He summons his ult ghoul, and all his other ghouls, and towers just fall from all his buff.

Annie isn't great but Tibbers tanks and hits alright.

Backdooring = destroying towers without ally minions.
How we use the term = destroying towers without enemy champions nearby.

True backdooring = Shaco
Otherwise, normally ad carries can push towers pretty fast.

When you are backdooring, make sure you know where all your enemies are and that they aren't close. You have enough time to back if they are about the distance from the middle of mid lane to the middle of bottom lane. Only push(backdoor) when your team is fighting IF you cannot make it in time or your coming won't make a difference in a fight.

I don't know why no one has mentioned the king of split pushing Teemo He has a powerful stealth that initializes after you stand still for two seconds and is indefinite. All you have to do is push and when you see the bad guys coming your way, stand still and wait for them to leave. >_> And yes, I build AD on Teemo and do just fine.

Teemo's auto-attacks are great at pushing but other ad carries have skills that clear waves super fast, for an example:
  • Graves can use buckshot to halve the hp of all the minions or more and then use quickdraw to demolish the tower.
  • Sivir can use boomerang and ricochet to instantaneously destroy a wave. Her ricochet proceeds to give her additional auto attacks on the tower.
  • Corki can use gatling gun to wreck minions and even use his ult and phosphorous bomb.
Etc.
Teemo may have stealth, but if you're smart you would back if you knew they were coming anyways...It is especially good because when you back you can immediately group with your team and make it a 4v5 while the enemy champion is still in the lane you were in.
