I'm sick of the damage and snowball from laners, while Jungle gets short end of the stick

If I'm going to quit jungling, I might as well quit this game since I've jungled for most of the time I've played this game. The combination of having little impact on a game where my laners aren't doing well plus dying immediately in this volatile 1-shot meta has me feeling sad to play this game most of the time.

good. the point of jungle is to support your team with ganks because it's impossible to have 3 counter matchup lanes in select. the mentality that you're supposed to carry from jungle is unhealthy and toxic anyway.

I'll also mention that the role of 'ganking' would benefit from idk, knowing lane matchups, and most junglers that 'only jungle' are trash at gank paths because they've never played a lane and don't have the slightest clue what lanes need assistance verses where they are wasting time. They exclusively focus on themselves and just gank when it's convenient, this is trash strategy for jg. This is also why it's ALWAYS a laner shitting on the Jungle in chat, because a good jungle doesn't need to be spoken to.

the idea jungles should just be able to win without acknowledging their team was some of the most trash metas of all time. You SHOULD feel more dependent on your team than any other role, otherwise jg is unbalanced trash again.

Complaining about baseline jungle power doesn't change what they do best at all, reversing a losing lane. If that role is strong enough himself to just 1 shot laners, then it's a fucking 1 player game.

It really paints a picture of appreciation when I have a good Jungle, because most junglers suck and is the absolute most boosted role. Only Jungle Mains defend Junglers, the other roles pretty much unanimously agree jungle players suck, and the last hands they want to put winning the game into. I would trust the IRS before junglers, I would trust Nazi's before junglers. I would trust a ped in a public restroom with my daughter before I ever trust a jungle carry.

So maybe get the idea you're supposed to 'carry' out of your head, and look at the game from more of the perspective of a support. I literally didn't even have to OPGG you to confirm you're a Udyr/Xin/Hecarim player. Maybe you would have a higher than a 33% winrate with Malphite if you stopped building AP, and built items that help your fucking team. The way -you- look at Jungle is what is really just bad. You literally cry about 1-shot meta, even tho AP malphite is proven trash, and then play a 1shot AP hyper carry jungle that was designed to be a tank(And has a higher Jg wr Tanking), and then lose because it takes ridiculous malphite skill to build him that stupidly. Bro pls? You don't play a single jungler, lets be real, you play Jungle-ADC like the majority of other trash junglers that have no clue how ganking works.

I cannot carry people that jungle like you in as low as iron. I'm literally certain we'd lose even on smurfs. That's how much it's "you" instead of "the jungle".

Rightttt its totally your team and not you. Theres a reason a diamond jungler can start a fresh account and climb to diamond with a 90% winrate. Because they play well, so unless you are high diamond plus-there is no reason to blame snowballing laners for your losses.

As a jungle main I can say this. Jungle is arguably the most or second most influential role behind ADC. Jungle has a lot of power to change the tide of a game, and yes you'll never win the lane for them, because that's up to them. Jungle has a lot of power so I don't know why you're upset and complaining that they have no power.
