All of my lanes are losing at 8 minutes and I cannot enter my jungle. What am I supposed to do?
This is really fucking stupid. The enemy jungle hasn't done anything and is just AFK farming and invading, but my team mates are too behind to contest it, so I'm left with quite literally nothing to do but AFK. Eventually, I fall so far behind that the enemy jungle has a 3-4 level and full item advantage, and can just kill if he catches me in my jungle.
The exact same thing happens if my team mates picks weak early game champions. The enemy team's laners and jungle can just run through my jungle early and completely remove me from the game, before I even hit level 6, because the current baseline is for the jungle to be permanently behind the solo lanes.
There isn't even a 'play safely and catch up' option. I literally can't play the game, and wasn't even given a chance to influence this outcome.
This role is garbage and really needs to be fixed, or given some form of protection against being invaded early in the game, particularly at the point where you're level 4-5 and the solo lanes are level 6.
