What does it take to get an S in jungle

Ok riot. I went 5-0-8 as a tank jungler where the enemy team surrendered in 22 min. I got an A and the top lane who was 8-7-2 got an s. As a jungle main I find upsetting. I worked super hard all game ganking lanes and making sure they got ahead while trying to keep my farm up and have objective control(we got both dragons and the herald). I feel that according to your system with the current metrics that in order to get an S rank in the jungle you need to be incredibly selfish and just hard farm and kill steal from your lanes which is why junglers on average have a higher rate of being highly toxic to the community.

A high CS always works out in the end, but that doesn't mean "sit in lane and steal your teammates CS". Rather, focus on invading often. Dont waste a single second, farm where you can. If your teammate dies, hold the lane & last hit what's going to get killed anyway. Also: Use wards. Clear wards. Get a high kill participation score. Don't die. Get many objectives. Be involved in tower kills. Amass a lot of gold. Its not all about KDAs, nor are you required to have 200+ cs. Creep scores just boost your chances.

Because Illaoi is a shit champion that doesn't go positive normally.

An S rank is determined by the scores of other players, in your elo, playing the same champ, in the same role. (I heard Poppy in the comments) Poppy rofl stomps in lower elos, and can go 11/0 in a 20 minute game easily.

So Poppy has a higher standard than Illaoi does, making it harder to earn that S rank.

It makes no sense, and cs does not count, I have screenshots of a game where I beat the adc in every single Stat, I do more dmg I get the same amount of towers plus one inhibitor I get more cs I get more gold, I get the same amount of kills and assist and we die once both of us but she gets an s and I don't.

welp thats riot for you; they give more importance to farming then for killing or helping the team kill. Man i had so many games with 15/2/15, 19/5/11,... and so much more examples like that that ive come to the point where i just gave up and ignore the fact that ill never get that one last mastery 6 token to put warwick at 7.
