General DiscussionFarming while on offlane?

not giving advice from my personal experience but from watching videos id say dark seer, maybe wr power shot.

Stacking ancients and securing runes.

dire also has the pull camp, so use that to your advantage whenever you can, if you dont get the big creeps atleast you'll get your creep wave.

Which camp does dire offlane have, the ancients? I

First of all, its not your job to farm, but to leech as much XP as possible without dying.

BUT:

Block your first wave as much as possible and let the range creep go first. (Don't even block it after it becomes first)
Or take the bounty rune.

I usually exploit their mistakes:

They push your tower? Unless they pull, keep the wave right outside the range of your tier 2 tower, they can't really gank you there. (do this by denying and letting the enemy wave have a catapult)

Hide in trees...

They leave their carry solo? It basically becomes an extended mid lane.

Their support goes to pull - your time to do anything. Unless 3 lane.

IDK...

(take runes also, somehow you will always get bounty runes (is this just me? ^^))

"First of all, its not your job to farm, but to leech as much XP as possible without dying."

Keep that in mind and pick a hero that can flash farm up later or doesn't need farm that badly.

yeah you can but over half the time you will be solo offlane and sniper is food for any good support/mid if he hangs far enough out to farm. I agree though if you get a dual offlane you can get farm just as easily as safe, sometimes it's easier cus enemy will be something weak like spectre carry and their offlane is hard like bb + silencer.

The difficulty of the offlane depends on your MMR

It's probably worst at low MMRs (a dual lane with an idiot who's stealing your farm) or higher levels where the enemy has competent trilanes

If you are good you get a strong offlaner and you farm your 2k MMR enemies by killing them.
If you suck get riki or something and rely on your 2k MMR enemies not knowing what truesight is.

Kitrak can you give some tips for playing bs offlane please ? Your replays are unfortunatly too old to download them : / (15 days ago and I think the limit is like 10 days or maybe even less)

Offlane best lane

@kitrak if you offlanes sniper let's be honest and include that was only in 6.83 aka the last time you played sniper and in the case of a lot of people their last time as well.

Also based on that where is this 75% record of you offlane bs? All I see is 52% overall this patch.
