You have to manage the lane properly so that the enemy safelane heroes have difficulty getting the last hit and getting gold. You also have to communicate with soft support to distract enemies when laning.

Besides that, when your soft support is roaming, stacking, or taking bounties, you have to adjust the lane by pulling or holding creeps so you don't get pushed too much.

So, your job as an offlaner in the laning phase is to disturb the enemy's farming safelane.

When the enemy wants to gank the lane, you have to be on standby. The way to deal with the gank is by doing warding in the lane area.

A very strong hero to stay on the lane and hinder the farming of enemy heroes is Bristlebacks and Centaur Warrunner.
