I don't understand this Stigma with Toplane and Jungler's.

The stigma is that NO MATTER HOW PUSHED IN YOUR ALLY TOP LANER IS, The jungler ignores you. Like i do understand, the top lane usually doesn't have a carry, there's no use getting them ahead when you could get your mid and bot ahead instead but do you understand that when they are AGAINST a carry top and they keep getting pushed in by a Jayce, Quinn, Gangplank, Riven, Fiora ect ALL THESE HARD CARRY TOPS that you should, idk KILL THEM?! Like i can understand to a point but when it starts to get to the point that they are pushed in for 10 straight minutes and you STILL do nothing, like what are you doing? Bot and mid better be 6/0 now if your ignoring a lane that hard like c'mon man.

I main Jungle and Top, and while as a jungler i don't gank Top often i atleast still show up when i'm needed. If anything, since i main Evelynn, i gank top every, single, time, i hit level 6, it's usually my first gank why? Because my top laner most likely has CC, by which he can CC them so that i can CC them and get a Free kill for myself since he doesn't need it. So why not gank top? Like, top is sooooooooooooooo free half the time but people just ignore it and i really can't understand why you'd ignore a Klepto Gangplank pushed under your ally's tower for 10 straight minutes. Like he's just gonna get more free gold, might as well kill his ass so you get some too.

i feel like people ignore toplane because toplane from my experience IS ALWAYS THE FIRST ONE TO PING ASSIST ME not even 3 mins into the game every time they ping they get more and more angry which is why toplane became the MEME role of LoL Nobody takes toplaners seriously anymore lol

As a jungle main I will go wherever I can gank.

As a top lane main I actually take the opposite stance. The only time I want to see my jungler top lane is when there is a kill they can take with very little risk to themselves (yes, if the jungler ganks I want them to try and take the kill). I don't want them to help me, or try to get my own lane steamrolling, I want them to focus on getting the first Dragon and setting the other lanes ahead.

It's my job to not lose my matchup, and getting my hand held by my jungler doesn't really teach me anything. I put quite a bit of time into learning difficult matchups and I want to test myself and see what does and doesn't work. A good jungler will be able to balance focusing on the things I want them to focus on with an occasional top lane gank, but I don't expect my junglers to be anything but mediocre.

Neither my way nor yours is 100% correct in all situations, but I felt like adding my opinion to the thread since it disagrees with your view.
