Dear pro LCK Ezreal players and top laners

Some basic strategies have been forgotten for those who tend to play Ezreal jungle.

You can NEVER carry late game without someone to initiate.That is the iron rule for every team fight.Especially,when your team consists of Janna,Xayah,Veigar and Jax(me).The enemy had Jarvan,Swain top,teemo mid,Kalista and Thresh.From those line ups you expect Jax to farm and get some HP for bigger sustain in fights.But wait,Ezreal thought he can 1 vs 5 and never bothered to visit top lane.

As a result everyone started blaming poor jax for farming at top lane and not assisting sometimes his team.

The way this fuckin game works now,top laners are neglected and everyone focuses to who will win at bot lane.As a result,your jungler in many games won't even bother to look at top and eventually will flame you late game for playing poorly.When i say poorly,i mean when enemy's jungle comes and ruin your game while your jungle is playing pacman wherever.

I really enjoy playing top lane,especially when i use my damn teleport spell to assist my team.However,right now it is not enjoyable.Top laners are frequently the last factor your team needs to win the damn game and as a result it's like nobody cares if the top lane uses his teleport or whatever.

From my last 100 games as a top lane player this is my experience.Only bot lane matters and nothing else.Even if you lose 2 towers at top from enemy's jungle pressure,your jungle will camp bot to continue with his ganks even if he fails miserably.

To all top laners,you have my sympathy.I understand that your/my role is probably infuriating to play.Especially,when before every game you must pray to get a jungler who understands that top lane is important and not blame you for failing vs enemy's GANKS.

Cheers.

It's not entirely true that you can't win without initiation. If you have a poke comp and are competent enough to play it or a strong 1-4 or 1-3-1 you can win through pressure alone. Admittedly, it is risky because if you fall behind you're reliant upon kiting the enemy back and hoping they overchase or make a bad tower dive.

Some team comps are just hot garbage though.

Well there's your problem. I don't think you're going to get far with trying to talk sense into trolls.
