"I'm being camped"

Elite4Runner·Aug 5, 2018·7 votes·1,394 views

Instead of constantly complaining about how you're being camped, .. maybe you should pay attention to how overextended you are, without vision.

If you are being camped, stay under your tower.

If they continue to camp you, they are wasting their time.

The only way they should be able to kill you is if they are able to tower dive you.

And if they are able to consistently tower dive you, .. they are already really far ahead. ... probably because you were playing too far ahead without vision.

You dont need to be ahead to tower dive, towers are useless placeholders that kill minions at this point. And also, has it ever occurred to you that people may be complaining about a camp because there is a good potential to countergank? As a jungle main, i believe it is incredibly important to take advantage of situations where the enemy jungler shows them self on the map, be it counterjungling, counterganking, ganking, or deep wards.

If i am in lane and the enemy jungler pitches a tent in my lane, im going to let the jungler know about it so he can either countergank, or take advantage of the situation.

Im making the assumption that you are a jungler because of the context of this post so ill just say this. Are you taking advantage of counterganks? Because i think thats more important to look at then telling people on the forums not to communicate with their team.

cant always countergank, and usually when someone complains that he is already camped, then he already fed either their laner or the jungler. if you survive all the ganks and say "jg is camping", its actually good for your team, but most of the time, when people complain of a camping jg, they already gave out 4 kills at least, which make 2v2 or 3v3 mainly at their advantage, thus countergank will not be enaugh to turn it around. and its not because you countergank once that the laner's map awarness will suddenly improve and enemy gank will stop working, you will be required to spend whole game camping the same lane just to avoid being more behind than you already are but will not turn it around, just avoid it being worse (if the laner would watch map/ward it would be as effective if not more)

I didnt just say countergank. I said deep wards, counter jungle, gank a lane. because if the jungler is top for instance, he cant stop you from ganking bot and taking drag.

It seems to me that the only point you guys have is, people have bad map awareness and overextend too much. To that i say, welcome to league, whats your point?

Truth be told, there is no point, because coming on the forums to tell people to git gud doesnt change a damn thing, and just adds to the toxicity in the community.

In my experience, they dont have to be extremely fed to tower dive you. I've been tower dived on the second gank. And I've been camped when I wasnt even past the half way point of the lane. Camping in these days is honestly very low risk, very high reward.

the point isnt, you are bad when getting camped. its a complain about the fact that the camped player complains about the camp

Elite4RunnerAug 6, 20181 votes

You're right, it is actually both.

I'm annoyed about the fact that they are complaining instead of playing intelligently.

I often get surprised at how much people think they are getting camped. Like yes I did camp (gank 2 times ) in mid, but that is only if we ignore the 9 ganks bot I did lol.

Or maybe just ask your jungler to countergang.Cause sitting under turet ,while you cant even cs its not fun.

Elite4RunnerAug 6, 20181 votes

Even if you are asking for a counter gank, you still need to not be overextended without vision. Most good junglers are not going to counter gank for a player who is so far behind that the enemies are more likely to get a double kill when you show up.

If a lane is being camped, that's a good opportunity to gank and put pressure on other lanes or even invade if they're camping top or bot lane. If you're constantly putting out pressure on the lanes that aren't being camped then the enemy jungler has to deal with it and that will help remove some of the pressure being placed on the lane that's getting camped. That's just some advice that I learned from my friend who's a jungle main. I'm just some noob though, so feel free to ignore this if you wish. I won't blame you. It was only advice. It is upsetting though when a lane keeps getting ganked because they're constantly pushed forward or out of position with no vision and they try to blame it on the jungler. It's not really right nor fair.

Usually the people who gets camped either don't ward and or perma stuck to their opponent's turret, because that's precisely the kind of people I like to camp.

Then they have the audacity to tell me to stop playing my lanner's lane for them after only the fourth gank in a row.

Then don't complain when the time bomb called akali/tryndamere/jax explodes in your faces and then you start mia pinging top. Well, guess who had to give up a free lane?

The best is when your top lane is losing his lane, low health, and you see a nice juicy gank top lane that is guaranteed to get a kill. Then as you are getting ready to come from behind and gank, your top goes in way before you can do anything, trying to bait or something, dies and then you almost die and burn flash and have to recall and lose the wave XP for trying to save them when they won't kite and expect you to just solo their top laner with an army of enemy minions and full defensive runes and enemy jungler probably on the way. And when you come back from recall your jungle is gone.

I get camped under my own tower constantly. Cant farm under tower because if you last hit you are getting punished by two champs. It's like duo mid is the meta because the enemy jungler is almost never actually jungling.
