I'm not joking with the title. I see it in many of the games I play. 2 people in short lane, 2 people in mid lane, 1 long lane. Is this like the new meta or something? I'm tired of soloing mid and being stomped by 2 very aggressive gods since they can out push me its annoying.

*Many* of the games? I have no idea why, I haven't seen it done in any tournaments or competitions that I remember, especially since the mage would end up heavily unfarmed due to sharing a lane.

Since they don't have a jungler, just tell yours to take every buff, get stupidly farmed, and gank everything super easily without any fear of counterganks.

If you're seeing a duo mid, odds are one of them is a pseudojungler who often runs out of the lane for buffs and ganks.
Waiting on a good new MOBA, please.

Yes I am noticing it now. This past week I've been matched with people duo laning mid 3 games one after another. Even more on different occasions. Maybe I just have bad luck or something.

Oh my bad, I thought you ment 2-2-1 in any order.

I didn't know you ment 2 mid.

Yea I have only seen that in a recent pro match where two went mid.

I guess the idea is that its the same as soloing for the other person facing the 1v2.

The idea is that the side with the 2 players mid can gank either lane easier instead of having to run across the map.

I hate when I get magical gods (ao, he bo) and they do this, I always get ganked and sometimes I can't avoid feed :/

I have an odd question.

The "Short Lane".

Is it shorter than the mid lane?
