About Junglers, from a jungler

Septarian·12/26/2015, 1:05:17 AM·3 votes·976 views

Okay so after about a year of Jungling I've noticed a few things people do that they don't know is wrong, and should politely be pointed out:

If you have a jungler:

FOR GODS SAKE THEY CAN 1v1 THE DRAGON BY LEVEL 4 OR 5 SO THOUGH THEY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP PLEASE BACK THE FUCK UP!!!! :)
Stealing the Drag away from a Jungler, even if they asked for your help is like getting a nice kick in the balls, or a hefty punch in the tit :)
yes, we're watching the lanes, but if you need a gank, just ping or ask them, and like magic, they'll come help you!!! :)
if you need a red buff or blue buff, your jungler will helpl you get it easily, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SNEAK UP BEHIND THEM AND STEAL IT and then say "Oh, you can get it later, i needed it now." !!!!!! :)
After level 6, Junglers are Gankers. So if you're missing from your lane, we'll take your place until you get back. We are in no way trying to kick you out of your lane, or trying to take it over!!!!! :)
^^^^ON THAT NOTE IF A LANE NEEDS HELP THEN A JUNGLER CAN TAKE CARE OF IT A-OKAY!!!! YOU DONT HAVE TO ABANDON A PACKED LANE WITH AN ENEMY CHAMP ON IT TO PLAY HERO AND SAVE THE DAY ON THE DEPENDANT LANE!!!!!!!! :) -If you're getting double teamed and a jungler comes to help, and they kill the enemy, THE ONLY PERSON THEY STOLE A KILL FROM WAS THE ENEMY!!!!!!:)

I hope this helps! :)

As a jung main, dont help with drag unless mid or not are MIA. You need to protect them only when the enemy knows about it, don't draw attention.

Just ask for ganks when you need them nicely and PLEEZ FOLLOW UP.

Same with buffs, don't take them without approval.

If u r low HP, let ur jg cover and take minions. HE ISNT MESSING UP UR FARM WHEN UR NOT THERE.

If they take the kill, just ask for another gank.

And even if the jungler gets a kill on your opposing laner:

Assists grant more gold than nothing.
The opposite laner being dead means you can farm without being harassed.
The opposite laner being dead means they miss out on experience and gold when your minions die to their turret or minions.

Sounds more like a jungler QQing than an actual tutorial

An ally has been slain Enemy has slain the dragon "omg report bot no help drake" Good junglers can decide if they need help from botlane/mid or not, and instruct his teammates to come help or distract. And he usually has lense/pink to deward dragon's pit

Stealing the Drag away from a Jungler, even if they asked for your help is like getting a nice kick in the balls, or a hefty punch in the tit :)

Its the jungler's job to lasthit it with smite so it will not be stolen by random skillshot from outside

If you're getting double teamed and a jungler comes to help, and they kill the enemy, THE ONLY PERSON THEY STOLE A KILL FROM WAS THE ENEMY!!!!!!:)

Unless he is playing Shaco

This isn't about junglers. This is things the Jungler says that makes them seem like a good person. I know people who main jungle, and they do a very good job at what they do. Now, I'd never jungle in Ranked or Normal, because I'm really bad at it. You can't please all people, so this list isn't accurate at all.

Gotta add more:

If you need to back and the enemy is dead or also backed, your jungler is doing the right thing if he's pushing out the wave. Pushing the wave under the turret means your enemy loses gold and XP.
FOLLOW UP. This one I've been guilty of on multiple accounts, when I'm not looking at the minimap. As a side note to the jungler themself - Ping when you go in/wait for your laner to acknowledge your existence.
No one gives a shit who gets the kill, and there are actually times when it's bad for you to get the kill (though the same could be true for the jungler). Always try to give the kill to whoever's snowballing, as giving it to someone who's died multiple times probably won't stop them from dying to an enemy who's killed them multiple times, and it resets their gold value, effectively giving more gold to the enemy. Also, it helps snowball your allies/you. Though honestly, I think it's almost always better to give the kill to the jungler (unless you are Riven/Rengar/one of those guys who needs early kills) because they are better at global pressure and can use that gold to help other lanes much more effectively.
If a lane is super fed and your jungler asks you for assistance ganking that lane, please comply. Would you rather give that Riven another two kills?
About Drag: No one gives a shit who takes it - Unless the jungler has Devourer, in which case he gets 5 stacks from killing Drag. So check what he's building. Also, the gold is global, so I don't understand the first point at all.
