IMPORTANT:
WINNING LANE IS NOT ABOUT SOLOKILLING.
You don't need to kill your enemy laner in order to win the game, specially while playing scaling champions.
Your mission is always going to be impacting the map while obtaining the most amount of resources while doing so.

For example, surviving lane as Kassadin against Zed with even CS would be winning lane for Kassadin.
Have in mind the type of champion you have and adapt your playstyle to each game.
For some of you might sound pretty basic but I see some low elo players struggling with this.

TRADES & MATCHUPS.
Before trading, always have in mind cooldowns, kill ranges and jungle/support position.
Abuse enemy laner last-hitting minions to start trades, also have in mind when they waste their disengage ability (CC/DASH: Syndra stun, Hwei fear, Zed W) to all in.

Don't start trades if it's not needed and try to avoid them if you are in disadvantage.
Always have in mind if trading for prio is necessary at all or is it just better to save your HP & Mana to keep farming waves and scaling.

FIRST YOUR WAVE, THEN EVERYTHING ELSE.
Always place your wave in a good position before leaving lane. Try to crash before recall/roam.
This will create a BOUNCEBACK, meaning enemy wave will come towards your tower giving you a lot of time and not losing CS while you are away.

This is caused by the fact enemy minions will stay under tower fighting yours but won't lose HP cause your minions will be focusing enemy tower instead, making wave movement stop.
Use this time to place vision in enemy jungler camps, roam or recall to grab the wave back.

KEEP RAPTORS WARDED.
They give so much information not only to avoid ganks, but for your team to track enemy jungler, it is super valuable and you will notice how easier games are once you grab this habit.
You can destroy enemy junglers gameplan and mental with this trick :)

STAY OUT OF VISION.
On crash, if you can't take plates, stay out of vision, even if you don't need to ward/recall and roams are not a good option, this will cause enemy TOP/BOT to fall back because of possible roam.
Abuse this trick to impact the map without moving at all.

ROAMS:
ALWAYS ROAM AFTER CRASHING, OR YOU WILL LOSE MINIONS.
As said before, only roam after crashing your wave and don't unnecesary delay your roams, get summs, kills and leave instantly. (Assist pushing wave if your laner needs it.)
Also roam top aswell, not only botlane.

TOP AND SUPPORT CAN ROAM ASWELL.
Supports can be a pain in the ass many games, so keep an eye on botlane aswell, junglers are not the only role who can gank you!
Surviving to these situations is always a victory, so don't worry if you get freezed, just leave wave and recall.
