Is Perma Pushing A Mistake?Wave control help
I understand top lane wave control in theory: player A gets prio, player B plays safe, the wave crashes into B’s tower, then it rebounds. If A stays for the rebound (with TP for example), B can often hit level 4 first because the player pushing the wave gets the XP lead, same way you hit level 2/3 first when you have prio. Then B crashes, and it repeats.
But on very weak early champs like Mundo, even with a temporary level advantage you usually can’t kill. In low elo I often see player A permanently pushing into weak early champs instead of letting the rebound come back to their side and punishing the overextension. Isn’t that technically a mistake by player A, since it gives free scaling to weak early champs?
And in high elo, where player A actually does let the rebound come back and punishes correctly, how are weak early champs supposed to survive/play around that?
