Junglers receive so much abuse
Junglers receive so much abuse it's insane.
Not playing too well? - Someone will call you on it. GG trash jungler. Not ganking for whatever reason (Maybe you're behind, your lanes are in bad positions, their lanes are strong enough to 2v1, or just general mis-timing) Just wait, sooner or later someone will drop a "GG Jungler no ganks" on you, and everyone will bandwagon it. Doing really well, ganking left right and centre while out farming? This jungler takes all the kills, wtf. Trash, we lose cause you no leave kills for us! Team doesn't group for Drake so you can never get it? Yeah they'll blame you for that too, never mind that when you pinged they sat farming instead of moving. Doing really well, ganking everything, getting drakes and overall being an ace-level babysitter to your entitled team? Well sooner or later one of these guys is going to, ignoring your score, your needs, and the significantly greater impact you're having on the game than they are, try to take one of your buffs regardless. If you take it anyways they'll act salty, maybe even flame you, as they're under the impression that they actually deserve the buff over you. When scores, impact, and general play says otherwise. That, or they'll start to play this little game with you where-in they will spend time trying to solo steal your buff when there's a more pressing issue at hand - i.e the enemy team contesting drake/baron.
Junglers literally receive the most abuse in the game. Meanwhile, I've noticed that ADCs are generally the most coddled. If a Jungler is doing well all they get is a "Yeah, now wipe my ass too." if an adc is doing well it's all "omgomg, so good wp"
If a jungler is doing bad, or even well, but not doing what his team personally wants him to do then he'll receive abuse. Meanwhile ADCs routinely suck and either receive nothing, or they'll scapegoat it by blaming their Support.
If a bad ADC steals buffs from a Jungler that's carrying then no one gives a damn. If a bad Jungler does it to a fed ADC then omg teh outrage.
And god forbid a Jungler even DARES to comment on a laners play. For some reason it's okay for Laners to verbally pester, and spam ping Junglers for a gank. But if a Jungler so much as opens his mouth and comments that "Hey, stop overextending so you don't get ganked, and inversely I can gank" then all hell just breaks lose.
