User blog comment:VooDooFruit/Tips how to deal with the most annoying mid laners!/@comment-5333760-20130610004125

League of Legends is a team oriented game, thus 1 v 1 match ups only accounts early laning phase which is 1-7 normally for solo lanes. Yes it'd be great if you pick a "counter" for midlane but there's still 4 men to shut you down through mid to late game... And in most ranked games i played, if i'm being overpowered by my lane opponent, i'd get the jungler to gank or else play safely and ward and generally don't push the lane.
