User blog comment:Odisseas25/Why does the AP go to mid?/@comment-149.241.135.134-20130210104555

APC's generally have better sustain so they don't need a support as much, also AP champions scale amazingly with farm and need to take wraiths or wolves to scale, also laning 1v2 is a real pain and this will happen because the meta puts AP's in mid, if you have to 1v2 then choose a ranged top lane with good health and sustain and the ability to farm from under your tower.

As a mid player, I also want to point out that AP MID IS NOT DEAD, AD mid is good to but if you can counter a melee AD champion mid you will absolutely squash them.
