PSA: If you are playing jungler and your top and mid get ahead early...

Come bot lane if we ping for assistance and aren't losing lane horribly. I'm sick of having junglers that camp top and mid and don't come bot lane for the first 15+ minutes for the game even if top and mid are both 5/0 before 10 minutes.

PSA from junglers, Don't push the waves under their tower then get mad when we don't gank you. I'm not diving with ren at lvl 7.

you're generally supposed to snowball leads in lanes that are ahead, they're much easier to work with.

It is difficult for junglers to gank bot due to trinkets. With free wards, it is impossible to gank without alerting the enemy bot lane. I mean, junglers can pick red trinket to counter these wards, but yellow trinket seems to be a more flexible option in their view.

As someone who both jungles and plays botlane, I can say a couple of things about this. Unless myself or my partner make some serious mistakes, such as pushing tower after getting a couple of kills and forgetting to ward when we panic backwards because we got jumped or caught in turret fire, I'll only ping for help from a jungler if they're near me or if they want a couple of free kills. I don't mind not dying, as I get to sit and farm safely. I'd rather go 1/0/10 over dying at all as an AD Carry.

Now, from a jungling perspective, if botlane is falling hard, and theres a point as to where the lane is lost, I'm not gonna risk giving the enemy team more gold. Instead I'm gonna assist my mid or top if they're a snowballing type and help them as best as I can, whether it's pricking off stragglers or taking advantage of those trying to tower dive, I'll make them regret assaulting past the tower point. Now when I'm jungling I ususally try and get both scuttlers to get early vision on River, but I do hope that each of my laners wards their local areas as much as possible. If bot lane is getting ganked, and I'm at top, there's not much I can do, and I advise my bot laners to ward as much as they can. If they're constantly getting ganked over and over and end p being killed, I'll take advantage of the jungler and raid their jungle, as to prevent them getting small power spikes between early-mid game.
