Hey junglers, if you want to dive in early ganks cuz the enemy flashed away with almost no health

Just fucking don't.

I don't give a shit if you never gank my lane just don't feed it because you want to make #lcsbigplays early game. Get the flash, get out, and if you're good you'll come back to secure an easy kill within 5 mts.

Even if you get the kill now I'm down the gold difference between an assist and a kill and it ends up making the lane harder.

So please junglers, don't even consider towerdiving in an early gank.

Enemy flashes under tower with like 100 HP left while my Lee Sin Q mark is on him... ... ... My mind's telling me no... ... ... ... But my body, my body's telling me yes... ... ... you have been slain

On the same token, if your team's jungler comes to gank your lane and your lanemate flashes and your jungler clearly decides that's worth it and heads back to river or wherever, don't try and continue the fight and expect them to come back to help. If I'm jungling and I burn a flash I leave the lane typically and go back to the jungle until it's pushed a bit more in the enemy's favor so they are vulnerable again then gank again.

People just shouldn't dive early unless they absolutely know itll work. I jungle more than i top so i see the top do this more often, and its painful when they undo the advantage you gave them like that. Even if they just randomly take 2 tower hits it goes from a flash and 70% hp lead to.. a flash lead

Only if you don't mind me taking like... two minions at most?

Hopefully you'll be getting a cs advantage, and I would love a couple XP points before I go in the jungle. Hell, forget the cs, just let me stand there while you last-hit two minions.

I love being a Cho Gath who gets ganked top. While under turret I'll taunt "Death is not the end for you, for I have seen it! You are mine..." OM NOM NOM NOM "You have slain an enemy" <Cho laugh after noms>

Yeah I usually stay far away from turrets in the early game as a jungler.

Especially being Shaco, you can't tank nearly as many hits as someone like Zac or something.

But every circumstance is special; maybe the dive is more worth than not.

Not a jungle main and I only play normals.

For the most part I agree. But some junglers can do this. It's the ones with range. Like Pantheon.

9 times out of 10 it's not worth the risk though.

actually if you save your gap closer, you can get the enemy even if he flashes...and sometimes (if i have a lot of health, whether im xin zhao or vi or lee) i use my gap closer (if the enemy is under turret with low health) get the kill and flash to safety
