Just Blame the Jungler...

To all JG mains:

Isn't it annoying as HELL when you get blamed for everything? When your mid lane feeds, but then says it's your fault for not ganking? If you die once, getting flamed b/c now the enemy jg is "fed" with one kill?

I made a list of what jg's get blamed for: -Ganking -Not ganking -Not ganking when you are on the other side of the map -Every fed enemy -Every feeding teammate -Not carrying the game -KSing a kill that your 10/0 teammate doesn't actually need -Not backdooring and winning the game -Not clearing a jg camp in literally 5 seconds -Dying to a fed champion -Going "AFK" for 5 seconds b/c you are deciding on what to buy in the shop -Not having perfect map awareness -Dying once, ever -Making one mistake in the game -Another teammate's mistake -Choosing Jungle

I think it's pretty accurate.

Yet JG is still the most fun role... amazing.

I mained jungle because its the most influential role starting last season (swapped from mid lane).

The games are in your hands as a jungler and in 99% of matches the best jungler wins.

I win a shit ton.

I get blamed for losses.

And rightly so. Because they are usually my fault.

All comes with the territory. If you want the responsibility of being the deciding factor in the majority of games but can't handle the criticism when you fail at the job then you shouldn't be in that role, the role that is the deciding factor in games for the majority of games.

Honestly, jungle is the most difficult role in the game because its the most cerebral role in the game and requires the highest degree of game knowledge, awareness, and communication abilities. 100% of junglers below diamond level are bad. If you play at those levels you have to accept that fact. Sometimes you might get lucky and get a smurf like me on some alt account, but that's not too common. Junglers either cost their team the game, or win their team the game in the vast majority of matches, so yeah, they should get the lion's share of the blame if things go badly.
