The game is too reliant on bot lane right now

Great Muta··12 votes·758 views

The damage adc's can deal out and the first blood turret gold is just too much right now. If you are ahead at bot lane, you stay ahead with a turret. With the double ranged bot lane meta, there's little junglers can even do to even up the score, as you get poked and killed before you get in.

I don't even want to jungle right now. My bot lane has consistently been losing 70% of the time, even with help and the second I see bot lane deaths, I know the game is already over.

I think this will change when the assassin rework comes out and assassins become more prevalent to shut down ADCs and squishy ranged supports with leads.

"WTF Assassins are Op wtf Im getting oneshot as an ADC nerf broken pls"

That's their job, they're supposed to do that.

But expect qq threads from squishy mains

my friend, as a support and jungle main I can tell you that just because a your bot lane dies you don't automatically lose the match. now if all three lanes are failing while you jungle THEN yes you have lost.

I am unsure of how long you have been jungling and with who but as a jungle you job is to prioritize which lanes to help and when, sometimes its better to leave a lane alone until you are confident enough to take on that lane and other times you merely need to show up to scare them into backing off. Depending on who you are playing this will require different approaches.

Feel free to message me in game or add me as me and my duo play bot lane together and I jungle or he top/ jungles when alone or when botlane isn't available

Both teams have a 50% chance of being good/bad respective to each other. Therefor you should be the determining factor of how your game goes. (Especially if your jg or mid) if you want to not get poked and killed when you ganked there's many junglers who can do this such as Zac. You can also attempt lane ganks as they are more unpredictable and close

We are in a carry mid and top meta. Where have you been?

As a bot lane main, I can tell you that the biggest issue atm for bot is the first turret gold. The bot lane that gets that gold can basically snowball the game. Its ridiculous.

i feel like when i lose games when its just my bot lane who fed, its normally because they dont listen (especially when you say "please, just let us carry you") i had a game earlier as gp and i got fed off the enemy top, while every other lane did almost nothing or lost and our jg was not doing much. So by the time i took top turret i had not helped any other lane once, but i was 5/0. I told my teamates i was ready to help and to just let me carry. they did and i finished 18/1, only dying about 30 seconds before we ended. another game shortly after i got fed, but my team didnt let me carry, they just made things hard. low and behold, we lost.
