This lesson is part of a class by: FORG1VEN

Lesson description

In this episode, Forg1ven talks about to mitigate losses when playing against a stronger setup. When it comes to playing against a stronger setup, level 1-6 are the hardest to face. Play smart and farm what you can farm without taking risks that could result in death. After gaining a few levels, you won’t have neutralized your lane. But, you will have enough spells in your tool kit to keep farming and pushing the lane. Your enemy will have less of a chance to gain the upper hand over you as they did during the beginning of the game. You still have to keep farming, but you will start gaining on your opponent.
