Honestly Junglers Have A Bigger Impact On My Games Than ADCS Do

I see so many people continuing to complain about "adcs deciding the game" but in all honesty every single one of my games so far has been determined by the junglers.

The jungler that ganks the most wins the game. Period.

Doesn't matter if I go 8/1 bot and shit on their adc who is behind in 30 farm and is 0/6, because if their jungler is or just better than ours they win the game.

If our jungler doesn't gank, we lose the game.

I have seen enemy adcs with perfect KDAs that shat on me lose games simply because their jungler wasn't as good as ours. I've had games as adc where I'm so behind and I can afk farm while my team 4v5's and it does not matter because we have a Shyvana jungle that has a brain.

I cannot stress, how many times I have seen a botlane get so ahead, so strong, both mine or the enemy's, and I watched them go from so ahead to so behind because the other jungle was better.

Yes, botlane is strong, I'm not denying that, I absolutely hate getting 4 man ganked every single game,

But if your jungler doesn't gank enough or at all,

Doesn't have a brain,

Or is just not as good as the enemy jungle,

You lose.

Obviously, but who wants to admit that?

Wow almost like each role impacts the game differently! The problem is everyone wants the most kills, people cant stomach not being the top player in the team, even when there is a lot more to winning than just team fights.

People always bitch about "ohh that adc killed us in the teamfight! Only he mattered" When in reality they dont mention the mage tnrowing AoE spells softening the entire team with a couple of spells, the tank engaging and creating room for the backline to work, the jungler diving the backline and the support buffing the team with locket and his shields/heals. But nope, adc is the only one who had an impact

Well for me jungling is more or less like playing a 2nd support. That supports everyone. so yeah, they can have a pretty big impact.

Yeah but people on these on forums are more content blaming everything on the adc class as they link a clip of a 9/0 twitch getting a penta on a team that collectively has 5 kills

ADCs are too powerful in the pro games and the game does indeed revolve around them more than any other role.

But in solo queue it's just like you said, the jungler's impact is higher than the ADCs at most elos.

Incorrect, whichever team has the fewest DCs usually wins

Dno what game you're playing then. All I see is jng being a bot slave.

100%. I'm an adc main that has peaked D2. Last season I couldn't climb. Top/mid always seemed to struggle regardless of how well we did bot. Contrary to what the boards think, if top/mid is fed, the adc will die. Lol. I started jungling and shot right up to diamond. It's wayyy easier to carry when you can influence 3 lanes instead of just 1. Lol.

What people seem to confuse is which lane has the most impact by default, and which one has the most impact when fed.

Jungle is by far the greatest by default, botlane is however made up of 2 people on your team which means if they get ahead they kinda end up stronger by default too.

But they can still be matched by something like a strong enemy jungle+average midlane.

It's not until they start going like 7,0,0 on the marksman and equivalently on the support that things turn to shit real fast.

somebody said it at last, the boards isn't the place to read about balance that's why you wouldn't find any posts regarding how op ad carries are on reddit because they're wrong and will get downvoted to oblivion that's why they post their false accusations on here
