Farming Patterns & Efficiency

Farming Patterns & Efficiency

Why Farming Matters

  • Gold = Power: More items = stronger hero
  • GPM goal: 600+ GPM for cores
  • Efficiency: Don't waste time walking

    • Basic Farming Pattern

    The Triangle

    Most efficient farming route:

  • 1Lane creeps (priority for gold/XP)
  • 2Nearby jungle camp
  • 3Next jungle camp
  • 4Return to lane when creeps arrive

    • Timing

  • Creep waves spawn every 30 seconds
  • Jungle camps spawn at 1:00 and every minute
  • Plan your route around these timings

    • Stacking Camps

    How to Stack

  • 1Attack camp at :53-:55 of the minute
  • 2Run away to pull creeps out
  • 3New camp spawns at :00

    • Why Stack?

  • More gold from one camp
  • Ancient stacks = massive gold
  • Supports can stack for carries

    • Lane Equilibrium

    Keeping Lane Safe

  • Don't auto-attack creeps unnecessarily
  • Only last hit, deny when possible
  • Pull jungle creeps to reset lane

    • When to Push

  • Enemy hero is dead
  • You want to take tower
  • Going to farm jungle

    • Farming by Role

    Carry (Position 1)

  • Lane → Jungle → Lane → Jungle
  • Priority on all farm
  • Avoid unnecessary fights

    • Mid (Position 2)

  • Solo lane → Gank/Farm
  • Take stacks when ready
  • Balance fighting and farming

    • Offlane (Position 3)

  • Take what you can
  • Farm when safe
  • Join fights more than farm
