junglers....what do you do when your lanes are all shoved up

Ok so serious jingling question what do you do when you play someone lets say rengar (I just picked him up and I'm doing ok but not great as him) who needs kills to get strong, and all of your lanes are shoving the opponent to the tower, and your enemy jungle is a counter let's say it's Zac because that's what just happened to me (at least I'm pretty sure Zach is a counter). So two questions suppose your team isn't feeding do you just farm up if they are shoved to tower but going even. And more importantly like what just happened in my game a few moments ago what do you do when every lane but one (teemo's whom I got a couple kills off of before they fell back) is shoving the lane to the tower....then dieing....coming back and shoving lane to tower and dieing again until finally the enemy laner is up to many kills to gank (in my case I had a Lucian whom was 1/7 before 20 and a yas who was 0/4 before 20 all shoving until FF) I understand you can't win every game, but is there anything to be done while your team is doing this? Thanks for any help

Farm, counterjungle, if I'm a stronger champion than the other jungle, look for him and kill him

Ward and if you don't have wards... attempt to counter jungle.

Me personally I counter jungle. If all lanes are pushed up, I ward and look for their jungler. I get a time on their buffs and I will try to keep the jungler from getting in those lanes... Once all 3 lanes are pushed it swaps to a info game. Keep the jungler out of the back line and try to turret dive if your comfortable..

Get deep wards out if you can. Partly it depends on what champ you are playing. If it is someone who can counter jungle do that. If you spot the enemy jungler and can counter gank, do that. If an enemy laner is really low and you think you can dive go for it.

Looks like you were playing Rengar vs a Zac jungler. IDK if you can always 1v1 him, but if he has half a brain he is going to be ganking someone. So ward out to try to see where he is going and see if you can win 2v2 or dive somewhere he isn't at.

Options:

  • Farm
  • Counter-Jungle
  • Ward the enemy jungle and/or river
  • Kill neutral objectives (i.e. Dragon)
  • Dive a vulnerable lane

That said, your options are limited if every lane is losing.

I ward shit up and look to see what I can do in the enemy jungle (in that order too, don't be a dumbass and walk into the enemy jungle without wards)

Find the enemy jungler with wards and counter jungling. If all your lanes are pushed then the enemy jungler is going to find something juicy to gank. You need to be there to counter gank or, with proper wards, give enough visual warning to ping your laners back.

The Jungle is your lane, the enemy jungler is your opponent. Keep tabs on him because thats your job. If you don't know where he is then find out where he's not and ping the opposite side to warn them the enemy jungle is probably close to them.

And for gods sake watch the minimap. Doing a camp doesnt take much attention and pinging a warning everytime you see the enemy jungle takes pressure off the lanes. Its annoying that Im the only one pinging a top lane gank as an adc and Im trying to cs/dodge/harrass/all in and the jungler is just farming wolves not paying attention with his thumb up his ass.
