Ganking should be risky....

It shouldn't be a free kill because jungle is so easy to take, and you can basically 100-0 nuke with all of the strong junglers level 2-3.

Cause wards stop a tower dive from full hp around level 5-6... good one... I was hoping this thread could get a comedian in it. For that matter, like this last game (I just played), we just 2 man turret dove at level 6, got a vayne ghost for a free tower... she saw us the whole time, and was full hp when the gank started... we nuked her so fast that she died in 1.5ish seconds.

then she had terrible positioning, I'm sorry but a dive if people are visible is obvious, you either prepare to counter and punish or you pull off.

If you don't want to here what others have to day get off the boards and talk to a mirror. Learn some respect for your fellow players. Seriously jumping on a guy who infact made the 1st suggestion that should be done Warding. Then its map aweness, positioning, counter ganking and rotation/roams of the team. Fact is you were able to tower dive because you were ahead, and she had no support plus bad position map aweness. I'm guessing Bronze bc silver players start learning when to back off group and counter gank. Vayne is also a late game champion which means you had that advantage as well. Bottom line is, if their are balanceing issue Riot doesn't look to the forums they look to the pros. And none of them are complaining about this.

i'll take that, maybe i did come across a bit short and arrogant but i really didn't mean it that way.

Yea, that is a load of shit. Lee sin was 1/0, and I was 0/1... as morde... with vayne having the kill against me... We weren't ahead, it was a 2v1 and I walked out with about 3/4 hp, and lee walked out full hp...

Ganking has risk. It is not a free kill if your opponent is laning safely and/or their team is reacting accordingly.

When you show yourself on the map, or in a lane, your enemies will see where you are, or more importantly, where you AREN'T, and they can then apply pressure on objectives without needing to worry about being punished for over extending/committing.

Their jungler can gank one of your weaker lanes or press to towers without a countergank, they can secure objectives without worrying about a smite steal, they can invade without getting collapsed on.

And if you don't manage to get a kill, assist, or at least a summoner spell from your gank, you wasted your time and lost out on gold and exp.
