PSA: If you ask for blue/red and the jungler doesn't respond

WrÆth··6 votes·617 views

That DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE BUFF IS FAIR GAME.

Seriously, this shit pisses me off so much. I'll be doing my blue, and all of the sudden, dickheadmcdickens69420 comes out from midlane and steals it. And when I ask them why, they just say "well I asked for it". Well maybe, I was paying attention to 100000 other things a jungler should be paying attention to instead of the shitfest riot calls team chat.

Also, some (admittedly smart) people will /mute all before the game starts. This is actually a very intelligent thing to do, and can prevent tilt a lot of times. But this also means that they cannot see if you ask for blue or red. So if you are walking towards blue or red to take it and they ping you away, back off. We junglers (well, most of us) don't just randomly pop into your lane like "hey whatsup asshole, nice wave you got there, whoopsies, all mine", so don't pop into our jungle and take our camps.

Please.

if a laner steals my buffs, i go into their lane and tax minions until I have recuperated the 100g they stole from me.

Sometimes I like to take a little extra so I can make it worth my time.

Also they won't be getting anymore ganks.

Loe ELO jungle mentality is one of the worst in the game. Y'all get stuck because of these types of decisions. In most cases midlaner can use blue buff way more efficiently than you can. Getting a tad bit upset because they took your buff and putting them behind in farm and levels for it is hurting your chances of winning. It wont be the reason you lost but every time you put your pride of the team winning you just dig yourself a little deeper. Then complain that people just blindly hate on junglers.

I mean, as a low ELO myself. The only reason why I wouldn't fork over a buff, is if the player has already demonstrated that they can't survive, play safe, and will inevitably hand that buff to the enemy 30 seconds later.

I've learned that the only person I can trust in ranked is myself quite honestly. That's why no one plays supportive champions, and support is one of the least popular roles. I may be bad, but at least I know my strengths and weaknesses and how exactly I can carry.

If I'm in low elo my midlaner is likely shit. Most of the time they die with blue buff or use it incorrectly and it becomes a waste.

Not to bash you but by that logic, youre probably shit too. If there are two turds and one can statistically use the buff better, give it to the other turd.

At least I know MY LIMITS and how I PLAY. If I give my blue to someone else, I am trusting another person who I have NEVER MET BEFORE with one of my greatest sources of income and my ability to carry.

But big picture that person has the same % chance as you do to carry. I understand your feelings on it but playing the game right is how you climb. Not thinking you can carry in order to climb

Most of the time I will give blue buff to my laners (ESPECIALLY if I am playing Lee Sin)

Some people are Assholes though...

PSA: The point is to get the buff on the person who benefits most from it to win the game. A midlaner with blue buff can harass and waveclear without a care. How mana inefficient is your jungler that you need it?

Selfish prideful outlook on things. Consider cost-benefit of the entire team more.

Somewhere around lvl 8 the blue buff becomes fair game. If you are smart then the blue buff goes to mid way before that.

my favorites are the laners that take blue (or red) without asking, then give it to the enemy team by getting killed in less than a minute, that is my absolute favorite.
