Swain
Really easy matchup midlane, ur free to poke him in the early game and even look for a kill level 2/3.
Level 6, it's really easy to R him since he will try to stand close to you with his ultimate to drain you, he will perma Facecheck you.
You Also outscale him
Galio
Easy matchup : You are free to kite him during all the laning phase, as he wont have enough damage to ever kill you with his combo and you outrange him. Just watchout for ganks and respect his E range. Level 6 if he ever jumps on you, you can kill him easily by putting your W at your feets.
Lucian
Azir
Aids matchup, you can't do much, he has too much range. Try not getting hit by his Q. Run TP, call for your jungler to gank. Try to not let him freeze the wave as he can insec you level 6.
If ur jungler helps you tho, he can be killed pretty easily.
U can R him during his dash animation if he tries to insec you, but you must be ready for it.
Akali
?
That's the main thing when playing against akali, you are probably disgusted by his kit and wonder who designed it, especially her fucking stupid gypsie shroud. Mostly a farm lane, it's hard to kill her 1V1 because of the mobility and the disengage of her shroud, just farm up, and respect her level 6 powerspike as she can shred you if u troll. When the shroud is gone, u can look for some harass, however as she has no mana cost (???? riot) she has more lane durability.
Good akali players are a pain in the ass, still you will be stronger than her if you simply farm up and cc her in teamfights.
Exhaust is a good sum against her.
Ahri
The key of this matchup is to dodge the Kiss, try baiting it after hitting a q : u fake to run in a straight line as if u are going to hit and run her, and u instantly moove slightly to the left or the right to dodge it. try to get closer to cast ur W on her so she won't be able to ulti out.
Cleanse is really strong in this matchup.
Irelia
A tough one to be honest. This matchup is 100 percent snowball, if she gets a lead, u are pretty much fucked.
Try predincting on which minion she will dash, so you can land a Free Q. The moove of Q will help you dodge her E easily : to dodge it, try faking a path or moove perpendicularly.
When she gets her 5 stacks, play behind ur minions, outside of the Q range she has when she will Q on them. If she lands a stun or an ult and start Dashing on you, just play with ur W at your feets.
Orianna
Aids, just like velkoz, xerath and shit.
Played by every virving midlaner,
Katarina
Like pretty much every assasin matchup, ur W will be game breaker. Poke her level 1-2. This matchup favorite you, because u can time ur Q the moment she will dash on her daggers. but if she gets feed u can get snowballed hard.
Kata players are probably the biggest ego narcissic kids on the playground : if u beat a katarina main once in a 1V1 situation, they will usually try to perma trade with u to avenge their honor ( if they ever got an honor), they have a very low mental.
Diana
Ekko
Honnestly, its hard to rate this matchup, as ekko is a real dog champion. Really annoying post 6, and can pretty much farm safely with q in early levels. Keep ur W until he dashes on you so he can't benefit from his moovesped (passive), or W on him when he gets cc as he won't be able to R while he is on it.
Kind of a boring matchup, usually u want to look for roams, this matchup won't really be decided on how you play in lane, as a good ekko is hard to harass. Just get benefit of his bad waveclear in early levels.
Heimerdinger
Mostly an annoying lane.
Picture it as an annoying hobbit that u will perma push you and try to poke you down.
Just apply the basic rules u know, dont trade in his turrets and shit. You wont really be able to kill him in a 1V1 situation in the early game unless he trolls.
Aurelion Sol
Fizz
What kind of sick degenerate plays a Fish Hobbit Dwarf with a trident ? Fizz mains, probably the most unskilled bastards to ever land a foot on the fields of justice.
Watchout for his burst damage level 3, u have 2 ways of plaing this matchup :
- Either push him hard and poke him under his tower
- Freeze under ur tower and punish him when he gets a cs.
Ryze
U beat the shit out of ryze from level 1 to 18 if u don't troll, tbh ryze has a very weak early game that u can punish, and u will still beat him in late game with a good miasma or ulti on him. Try dodging his Q has much as you can, and don't trade with ur creeps around you because of his E bouncing.
just watchout for ganks as he can set up a good root for his jungler.
Camille
Watchout.
Like, for real. It's not balanced.
If u are a cassio begginer, watchout for camille.
Jayce
"HEhe xD i os YOU xd I play jayce"
Yup, it's Jayce midlane players catchphrase. Jayce mid is pretty good against cassio, as he can os you and take advantage of your huge mana cost in early.
Lux
An other virgin champion, free as fuck tho. Just dodge the blind and ur fine.
You outscale her hard anyway, and its easy to get prio over her.
Mordekaiser
To Loose this matchup, u have to be blind TBH.
You counter him for level 1 to Level 18. There's no reason u ever die 1 on 1 if you play well. You can kite him and he cant do shit about that. Easy as hell to Stun him with your r as he will have to facecheck you to hit Q. W is broken is this matchup, put it at ur feets and he cant do shit.
Syndra
Stupid cancerous matchup. Very hard to trade her. U must train to dodge her E's. Honnestly you have to play this matchup to get good at it. She outranges you, can set up the wave the way she wants, and can set up a gank easily with her stun. Level 6, if u don't run a defensive summoners, she can 100-0 you. Furthermore, she can Q without having to facecheck you.
The only way to win is to poke her enough with q, and fake an hit and run combo to bait her stun. Try timing your R when she facechecks you. Exhaust and phase rush are pretty good in this matchup, but not a must have.
In teamfights, Banshe or zhonya is a must buy.
Zed
Honnestly, an average Zed is easy to deal with. I rated this matchup as major because very good zed players can shit on you. The key are the early levels, u must poke him and deny him as much as you can, as he will have to choose between farming or trading you.
Level 3, u must dodge his combo.
Running exhaust in this matchup is essential to deny his level 6 kill pressure. When he R's you, put ur miasma on your feets so he can't return to his mark fast enough. If he is a bad zed, he won't have the reflex to immediately turn around, u can be quick enough to R instantly behind you and stun him.
Dodging his shurikens is the key of the matchup. Very snowbally matchup, if he beat you once, u must start playing defensively, and consider buying zhonya. In teamfights, u can deny him from killing a carry of ur team with ur W and ur R, or simply by using exhaust on him : Zed players tend to simply run in a straight line to the target they want to kill, put a W on this trajectory : when he is on it, R instant so he gets stuns.
A zed without kills is pretty much a useless Zed, remember that : it's better to play safe and get your powerspikes that trying to perma trade with him, and feed him.
Corki
Easy matchup, Get prio and start roaming. Corki is pretty safe, but if he disrepect you, try hitting a miasma max range : you are free to Q E him and kill him.
Malzahar
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ oh sorry you're here ? I was just playing malz Matchup.
Pretty fucking boring, just dont get hit by his Q and don't get near ur minions that are dying of aids.
Post 6, watchout as he can set up an easy gank for his jungler.
Malz usually runs TP and perma push you, just try to contain his push, in 1V1 situations there's no way he beats you unless he runs ignite, which is pretty rare.
U can get QSS if u feel like you will be his main target in teamfights.
Vel'Koz
Cancer because of his range, low mana cost and his Kill pressure level 6. Just try to farm safely and dodge as many of his combo as you can. You can R Flash him if he starts ulting you.
In mid/late game, try Flanking him : if you dodge his E, u can shread him as he has no mobility/escape.
Yasuo
Against very good yasuo's, this matchup turns out to be cancer, as he has way more lane survability than you do. Try to set up a freeze under your tower so u dont get poke with his permanent E Q combo. Its a very snowball matchup, once ur ahead u destroy him/
Xerath
Aids, just like velkoz, orianna and shit.
Longe range, low mana cost compared to you.
The only good thing is that ur a much bigger threat than him in teamfights because of ur DPS, and that he can be ganked/engaged very easily by your team.
Ezreal
Its pretty rare to see an ezreal mid,
TBH u shit on him, poke with Q.
LeBlanc
A skilled leblanc is the definition of lung cancer for cassiopeia.
Her burst damage is huge and she has mobility/range abilities.
Ur W is really OP in this matchup when she uses her dash on you to proc the mark, as she can't get back to her position when she's on it.
Go corrupting pot, try to freeze near ur tower, use w to disengage, and respect her dash and chain range. If she doesn't get feed, u'll outscale her, and u can even kill her post 6 with a good miasma and your ultimate.
Vladimir
Just break his god damn legs in the early game.
Vlad has absolutely 0 damages, only annoying sustain and a good escape tool. In this lane, he is your thing, just poke him down, get prio and start roming as he can't depush fast at all. However, if he gets fed, u are pretty fucked :)
Yuumi
Absolutely Broken on you, if u are strong in the game u can absolutely obliterate anyone.
Singed
When singed Starts doing his thing in teamfights, which his running around, u can E the champions affected by his poison.
Teemo
Same as singed, his poison ticks on the champions affected allows you to spam you E on them.
