Laning Tips

So the laning stage, if your a carry, remember to focus on last hitting! Its more important to get a last hit but miss a deny. Even if there are no supports, getting farm is your priority! When you last hit, make sure to only hit when you are sure that it will kill it. As hitting it more will push the lane, which is not good. See Lane Equllibrium

Laning Equilibrium

In the laning phase, your goal is to keep the creeps as close to your tower but out of it's range as possible, as to make it safer to get back, but also easy to last hit since your tower isn't shooting at creeps. There are two types of major factors that push or pull the lane, push being getting close to enemy tower, and pull being towards your tower. Here are the factors:
Pushing Factors

Excessive last hitting(auto attacking the creeps)
AOE effects and auras (Ring of aquilla, wk lifesteal etc)
Enemy Denies
