SUPPORT SHOULD LANE MID
Let me explain... In league the one role that consumes less resources and helps other lanes is the 'support'. The shortest path to any point on the map is from mid lane. Therefore the support should lane mid. There are a couple configurations of other roles and their lanes, I'll give a few examples of lane reconfigurations:
BASIC:
- Top: Top or Mid
- Jungle: same
- Mid: ADC + support
- Bot: Mid or Top
Easier to implement, ADC and support can bully the enemy mid, support can roam everywhere: top, bot, enemy jungle etc.. Your 'mid' or 'top' should decide who will better lane 1v2.
ADVANCED (INSANE UPSIDE):
- Top: ADC
- Jungle Top: Jungle (Tank/Carry)
- Mid: Support
- Jungle Top: Mid or Top (Tank/Carry)
- Bot: Mid or Top (Carry)
In this configuration the there are 2 junglers in your team, top side and bot side, farming parallel to the lanes. The junglers focus on their closest lanes and also invading enemy jungle camps as much as possible. The top and bottom lanes should be scaling immobile carries and prob take tp. Support roams everywhere as before. Carry jungle can take mid cs/plates.
GIGA benefits:
- 2 smites for objectives!
- 2 carries on solo xp and gold!
- Enemy jungle completely starved!
Let me know what you think :)
