If I don't queue as jungle, we lose the game.

This game blows. I'm a former Season 7 Gold V player who peaked in Platinum during pre-season nine and when I got placed into Bronze things were alright. Until I started duoing with people, that's when this whole idea of "jungle diff" came into play. Literally, every single game I would play while duoed if I wasn't jungle, and our jungle was trash, we automatically lose the game.

Two games ago I played Jax top went 22/13 while queued with my duo who I got out of Bronze 1 (which mind you was somewhat difficult), but that's irrelevant, my team and jungle could not do ANYTHING. When I pushed top lane and three people came to kill me they just outright refused to go get dragon.

Here's another instance where I went Jhin bot with another duo and I got in a game matched with a Nasus "support" who started boots and no support item and I shit you not, never came to my lane after the first three-four minutes, he just went to other lanes and went to stack off cannon minions and it was tilting af, but I knew it was going to happen since it's well Nasus so I tried my best, but I was JHIN into a ASHE and PYKE bot lane all they had to do was sit in that little bush in the bot lane and pull me out of it if I dare took 1 cs, which they did. I admit I didn't do so hot that game, but I had no support like, come on.

But if I play Master Yi in the jungle I can literally /mute all and afk farm until I know my powerspikes versus the enemy team, and get dragons so easily so I don't have to rely on a useless Evelynn who needs a "team" to take the dragon. Like this isn't even a joke, I even have a 30% win rate with Jax top over 20 games, and a 73% win rate as Brand Jungle over 11 games, yes you heard me right, BRAND JUNGLE for ME has a better win rate than when I play a hyper carry.

Can we please revert the dragon changes, like come on now.

wow look at that it turns out objective control is important

now imagine if you could contribute to the objective control with top lane controversial idea i know but if you look at higher elo streamers you will notice how top laners move to dragon 90% of the time when it spawns instead of mindlessly splitting

splitting only works when your team is on the same page or you are too strong/elusive to be dealt with otherwise you are pretty much inting your lead away by splitting and dying

also herald is a lot more important than drake if you can fight and win for 4th drake and onwards losing first 3 drakes means nothing

Nothing has changed since last season.

Jungle and mid are still the most important roles especially now that everything is more early game centric than ever.
