Personally, I wouldn't mind killing Singed again, and again, and again, for 20 gold. Since he's delaying me, why not delay him further? Ward your top lane, or if you could afford it, pink eye it to reveal the ward Singed is transferring to. By doing so, at least you're somehow delaying his antics; giving you some time to farm up a little.

Carefully, and alternatively farm his wave and him, and I guess, eventually, you'll have enough items to burst Singed down since they often start with mana regen on him.

I don't know, I might watch more videos concerning Proxy Singed.

@ ninja, 5 of those were talon's and 2 was the stupid jungle twitch >.< i sucked at playing a proxy the first time xD


btw i have a question, does a champ gold value decreases every time you die, regardless of circumstance (ex. executed by baron, dragons, pew pew panel laser, towers, golems, blue, red, wolf, lesser wraiths) ?


Yep. This is why with enough deaths, most players often ignore Singed because he's worth nothing.

There's a guy in diamond 1 who wins 70% of his games doing this method and it's pretty crazy. The only way to really stop it is for other lanes to win extremely hard which rarely happens when people are around the same skill level. Another way is to camp him since level 1 and wait for as soon as he begins farming between towers.

The awkward moment when you're camping him in-between lanes and it turns out he's not playing proxy Singed.

Seems that the only way this really works is because executes count towards your reduced death bounty.
Changing this so that an execute doesn't do this seems the most logical way to nerf this tactic, whilst leaving the rest of the game untouched.

Completely unrelated but I just saw you playing against Aphromoo. Can I please touch you?

Are you talking about the guy I was talking about? Druiddroid?

I dont see this being anywhere near a good idea except for SoloQ/Low Elo (a place where like anything can be "op")

For Proxy Singed to even slightly work, he has to concentrate on one lane: The one he was supposed to stay on, top to be more precise.


But he has this huge weakness of being.. well.. weak as ****.

You only need to cover the first 3-4lvls where there isn't that much of a difference (Using your jungle to block him/ playing more def/ using your ward to reveal his route instead of enemy jungler/ etc.)
And after that, simply accompany one wave so he can't gank it and use that to take down his tower.
He will have some farm in the mean time, but only on the expense of losing towers and feeding you too.

Either way forcing him, his jungler or some other lane to def against you.
Whatever the case, it's putting his team on a disadvantage.


It's another of those cheap shot shotgun tactics that completly confuses the mentally 12y old (which make up like 70% of the comm) turning it into some kind of wonder method.

proxy singed is just an annoying splitpushing machine that catches up in the game by farming tons. rely on splitpush and shoving him out just through having the upper hand in the matchup to punish him and even prevent him from getting away with even getting a single cs. you have to work on finishing the game faster than your normally would, which is not that hard. i think the main reason people lose to this is because they tunnel on him farming and either start ignoring him to the point they go for dragons instead of map control or they overcompensate time on killing him every time even though he isnt worth anything.

I just tried it myself and Im pretty sure I did it wrong, however, multiple people wasted their sweet *** time trying to stop me. I got both of Pantheon's turrets myself before he got one of mine (which he had to suicide with no minions for) and ultimately they just couldnt stop our pushing no matter what.

The game ended something like 20 to 50+ kills in the enemy teams favor and I was 3/16/2, yet I had the second most gold on my team and had the most turrets destroyed. Also they had like 2 turrets total when they were down to only their base turrets. XD Victory.
