Never. EVER. Freeze midlane. Unless you're playing Cho, or Maokai, or Taric (heaven help us), you don't want to constantly by last hitting near your turret. Your lane opponent will roam, gank top or bot, get kills, and still be back in time to counter your farm. If you're constantly being tower-dived and killed (especially midlane), then you're building wrong. Diving a midlane champ is like counterjungling a five-man jungle team. Almost all of them have tremendous burst, and if they don't they have cc to lock you under tower in aggro mode. So if you're not repulsing those towerdives, you're building and leveling wrong. And besides, a competent midlane should be impossible to gank without lots of help. The lane is so short and the mid champ's abilities made in such a way that you should always be able to get away pre-six unless you're going against like a lux mid/Maokai jungle thing.
