Like oh all your lanes got destroyed? Now you're fucked :D Your mid laner is inting? Congratulations you have now lost most of your jungle due to pressure. Your top lane is losing? No herald for you. Your bot is losing? Drags arent contestable and guess what, you will now lose :). Like this is why jungle is the least wanted role. There's so much pressure for you to excel and basically win most of your laners' lanes, for them. And even when you are so fucking ahead it wont matter because the xp disparity can and will fuck you right in the ass. Fun times again thank you autofill for reminding me that jungle is a shit role.

Jungling is extremely boring and lame.

Jungle is a meme. Can’t solo carry cause top and mid are always 3 levels up on you.

You have so little impact it’s not even funny.

100% agree, jungle feels really weak atm and it's not like you have to do anything good if you get a successful gank because it means the laners played better by setting up the wave or your own laner played bad (extending without vision).

When jungling you can get laners ahead in kills/gold/exp and they will still find a way to throw and if you are the lowest gold/exp role in the game (outside support) you can't do much once first towers fall and need your team to be competent past 15 or so minutes or you lose.

At least if you are laning and are better than your opponent you guarantee your own winning lane everygame and only have to worry about two, while junglers has to worry about 3 but as a laner you have more resources to do something come mid/late.

I honestly wouldn't mind if junglers had less impact early but actually be allowed to do something mid/late besides be a secondary support/smite bot

Not a JG main, but some of the most effective Jungers I’ve met didn’t even have to gank that much.

Vision control is as if not more important than ganks in early/mid game for a JG. item 2055 Good vision & vision denial can set up objectives as well as keep your laners safe, even when behind.

Until your laners just decide to ignore your pings and have zero map awareness.

Most of the time people argue the opposite. That jungle is too good, because it has so much more influence over everyone than other roles.

Granted, that's usually people who don't realize it becomes a much harder role the worse your allies are, because they'll get destroyed before you even hit level 2 or 6.

Pretty sure is only top laners that do that.

on reddit when there's a thread about any role complaining then there's always some kind of adc main who claims that they have it worse.

Junglers are rather important, as they are the most "Unknown" variable in a game. We have 2 in top, 2 in Mid, 4 in Bot...and 2 God knows where. Vision does help give an idea of where they are (or arent). Jungler's rely on vision to keep track of who is where...and allies to break wards so the enemy don't know if they are near/coming or not. Vision and Jungler goes hand in hand especially laning phases.

Except that junglers always know where the other jungler is, can ping them out and still have teammates die to the "unknown" gank that was pinged in advance.

Thats on the teammates not reacting to the warning/situation. Some people don't have map awareness and thats a Junglers favorite thing :P
