How to make your lane gankable -your jungler.

In response to the ceaseless complaining about not having ganks, here are some guidelines to make you more likely to get ganks.

  1. Don't mindlessly shove your lane. When the only way I could ever reach your enemy laners is by diving them, you're not getting a gank, unless I'm far ahead, and relatively tanky. 1.5 Oh. And you make your lane a juicy target for enemy ganks. But when there are 3 lanes doing this shit, it's kinda hard to know which free kill they are going to go after.

  2. Have any sort of CC. Like any kind. Even a slow might be enough to blow your lane's flash.

Thank you. Have a nice lane.[slayer-jinx-catface]

Trash laners are always bitching about not getting ganks when their dicks are contantly so far shoved into the enemy champion's turret's anus that whoever could pull it out would be crowned king Arthur. Then after whoever they're laning against goes like 5/0, they try to argue that they never were shoving against their opponent's turret, because just look, now the 5/0 is literally turret diving and one shotting them. So obviously it's the jungler's fault for never ganking.

Riot should just post something like "trash laners, please stop pushing your lane, you fucking trash bags, unless you're an assassin that can push quickly and roam to another lane to gank" at the start of every game.

Tips to junglers:

#STOP COMING TO MY LANE ONLY AFTER I DIED.

Learn to come when I was healthy af & was being pushed under my own turret.

i like those guys who are pushing 24/7 at enemy tower without wards and then complaining that enemy jungler was 3 times at their lane and you no single time.

And then they flame you and say things like "better jungler won" Makes me so angry every time!

AHAHA!! this is great, this should be pinned so it remains at the top constantly.

yea my team kept shoving in the enemy turret and kept getting ganked by the enemy jungler. this caused them to flame me for "no ganks" and got harrassed hard, which ended up causing me to flame hard as well. but i got the 10 game chat restriction.

yes please listen to this man, if you expect a gank, make it worthwile for your jungler

How to countergank

  1. Know where the enemy jungler is. Ward.

  2. Be in my frigging bush when I'm shoving my lane "mindlessly" and destroying the enemy, so that when enemy jungler comes we can double kill.

Thank you. Have a nice jungle.

  • I get shoved in entirely and the enemy is 60% health with no flash
  • You don't gank, but the enemy jg comes to towerdive me and i die
  • You come after finishing raptors (since that 20 gold that you can get later is so important) to tax the wave that i definently could've got at least 80% of
  • I spam ping you off the farm but you take it anyway and spit "not ganking you anymore" then proceed to constantly steal my farm WHILE I AM IN THE LANE over and over again out of spite

Did i miss anything?

I mean... If I get the enemy to 40% HP down and then push him in his tower, you don't want to dive him or what? What kind of mentality is that?

At that point it doesn't matter if you are lvl 5 and not tanky, you just need to hit like a basic combo and the guy is dead PLUS he loses like 2 minion waves of farm and xp. So the lane is pretty much over at that point with the help of a simple gank.

Happened more than once where I pressure the enemy down to his turret while he is at 40% HP and my jungler tries to gank a Fizz lane. Then of course the enemy jungler comes and fucks me over because I'm balls deep in the lane.

Yeah I could have backed off but that let's the enemy recover from the pressure I put onto him and pretty much nullifies the work I have done. In which case why even fucking bother laning at all and not just push the wave 24/7?

You don't have to gank 100% kill-proof lanes all the time, take some risks.

Goes both ways though. A good jungler will watch all lanes and gank even if it means a tower dive. A premade top-jg duo can always pull off dives like these.

Funny. My games are usually more in need of a PSA for junglers.

Hey Jungler, we've been pushed up under our tower for 10 minutes now. Why are you not ganking/afk farming only/only ganking top who is actually pushing his lane?

Revive Aatrox4/13/2018, 3:07:40 PM3 votes

Dear jungler could you please be top lane at 2:45. I will be pushing my lane, yes, I will be slaughtering my opponent yes. I'm playing aggressive yes ! why wouldn't I use my power advantage when I have it, I'm not playing Nasus that scales by just playing safe, I'm playing Quinn or Aatrox or another agressive top lane. I have CC I'm at 80% health he's at 20%. I don't even need you to dive with me, all i want is that my lane advantage doesn't go to waste cause the enemy jungler came after Buff>wolf>Buff then top and you decided not to come cause i was pushing and in your mind you thought there's no way i'm killing that laner, how about we kill the jungler instead ? how about you just show me some love early then i won't ever need you again. I have it warded he doesn't. Just be there so it's a 2v2 not a 1v2. Thanks. - Your agressive Top laner

You don't sound very good at jungling

There are bad laners. There are bad junglers. Its not a either or equation.

KuraSei4/13/2018, 3:44:40 PM2 votes

Literally just freeze the wave so I can come into the lane

Zelorxon4/13/2018, 5:29:09 PM2 votes

What a skilled jungler you are, i'm glad you are not even aware that crashing a wave is a thing and you didn't even spent a word on it, what a useful advice, thanks! Oh also don't mention pushing the wave after lv7, what is it even about? Who knows?

Velgam4/13/2018, 10:35:49 PM2 votes

So...if i am playing let's say maokai at top, I'm right infront of my turret, a pink ward in the river and a zombie in the tri bush I should get a gank? so why has that NEVER happened?

kaironen4/13/2018, 9:12:24 PM1 votes

I find this a little funny for me since I just mindlessly push my lane when I play jinx most of the time. It usually works out for me but I can see why not pushing lane makes the lane more attracted to them. Putting a control ward is also really helpful, junglers do not like to gank from warded areas. But the thing about not pushing the lane in solo que is that it sometimes feels like you play to not lose the game rather than to win it. Pushing mindlessly like I do is sometimes bad but if the jungler doesn't gank for you at all even if the wave is in the perfect spot, you could have lost a lead you possibly could have gotten. Then again, this depends on jungler match up and bot lane matchup (you can't really out push a Caitlyn/karma and you have to rely on your jungler or an all in).

Your 2nd point is important but it's not only about the CC you have, it's about the follow up. Countless times I had a jungle gank for me at bot but then me having no awareness just follow up too late. This sometimes leads the jungler to not gank bot again.

I shove waves when the jungler bot lane (top lane main) and poke the enemy to less than 40% and let them shove into me when my jungler at top side jungle spam ping enemy and i still dont get anything they rush mid to not do anything to the guy who's under tower

Madsin254/13/2018, 7:31:51 PM1 votes

Here is some real advice.

Don't be aggro on your laner. When you draw minion aggro you are pushing the wave without realizing.
