Reddit Sucks at Playing Offlane

Whenever I see any thread which brings up offlaning or playing offlane, an army of offlane only players come out of the woodwork and cry about being trilaned and feeding while being underleveled all game.

For gods sake, if you guys can't manage to be level 6 at 10 minutes with a boots+blink dagger at minute 15, you're doing something wrong. If you aren't AT LEAST able to soak EXP under tower while juking in the tree line, you need to look at your gameplay.

If you play offlane against a trilane solo, the most important job is to annoy them as much as possible and how to use that to gain EXP and drag their supports around the map while accomplishing little. Can you pull the hard camp to your wave? Can you run through mid river and creep cut and stack up a double wave? Can you jungle with your hero? Can you run around the trees in circles with a QB juking the supports? All of these actions involve acquiring experience and wasting support time/experience to stop you and you give your team some kind of advantage. Literally do any of these things, even if you die in the process of double stacking a wave you've pulled the enemy heroes to their own base for what amounts to very little experience and gold and you've ultimately made their creep wave push to your tower for easy EXP.

Annoyance is everything. Every time the enemy supports chase you around unsuccessfully, they lose a massive amount of exp since they are trilaning, and ultimately you are making the enemy creep wave push to your tower, opening the carry up to easier ganks.

Additionally, if you're playing offlane solo, your lane is relatively sac'd anyway. You can even gank mid if you feel you can do something. Nothing tilts mid players more than a non-support ganking them before the 10 minute mark.

Edit: To all the dumbasses using pro players as an example. Congratulations, you can't tell the difference between a coordinated and strategical S4 feeding a kill streak to the enemy carry for maximum EXP later on and a bunch of pub players who have never met.
