How to jungle according to the boards.

Gank. If you aren't ganking, you better be taking objecitves. If you aren't taking objecitves then you better be counter jungling. If you aren't counter jungling then you aren't doing you job.

Don't forget to gank tho, even if you are a pre 6 malphite with only one point in Q. because FUCK NUANCE. FUCK MATCHUPS, FUCK THE JUNGLER.

Isnt sweet when your midlaner is already pinging help at 2.10min then give first blood even before you finished you forth camp, and blaming you for not ganking with Warwick?

Amazing

I cannot sum up being a jungler better than this. but remember, according to these other comments, walking in, smiting (when you haven't even upgraded it yet), attacking them with red buff, and "applying pressure" is what you should do.

It's still better than the top laner who died at level 1, teleported back to lane and died again before I've cleared my third camp.

You have an ability that slows the enemy. Q, run up to them, smite and boom, you just ganked pre 6. This isn't rocket science. You act like you need your team ult to perform ganks which is total crap.

Veigarisgod12 votes

No, it's reality. Malphite is a low performing jungler that needs some serious compensation. I agree with OP. Ganking on some junglers is downright impossible pre 6.

Complete nonsense as I see Malph JGs gank and successfully before 6 all the freaking time. In low and high elo.

If it WAS true though, then you shouldn't be taking Malph Jg as it would be a bad pick. Like if you can't gank with that jungler, why are you taking them into the jungle? Stay top lane.

yeah, ofc they would gank if the enemy yasuo is pushed up to the opposing turret, but any competent laner wouldn't push that hard. also that's pretty much a massive lie.

I'm confused. What are you accomplishing exactly if you're a jungler that doesn't gank, take objectives, or counter jungle?

Marshbouy2 votes

Farming creeps, so you can get the gold that's required to stay relevant in the game

if you're doing that poorly as malphite, that you "need to stay relevant" and your argument is that you should be farming above all, then you need to stop playing malphite jungle. in fact, stop jungling period, because your logic makes real jungle mains cringe.

and the simple fact that you're crying about all of this, while playing a NOT META, poor jungle pick, proves this point entirely, on it's own.

Marshbouy2 votes

if you're doing that poorly as malphite, that you "need to stay relevant"

hmm yes because it's soooo beneficial to just constantly gank lanes and never get any gold or xp from yourself. (this is assuming that you aren't taking kills or a lot of cs from the lanes when you gank).

because your logic makes real jungle mains cringe.

since when was trying to actually get CS as a jungler a crime? What am i supposed to do? Just sit in the mid lane side bushes for the whole game and leech xp until i get 6?

"crying" yes, because growing tired of people calling me a shit jungler for not ganking their lane is now crying. yeah f**k off.

Dynikus2 votes

farming creeps and staying relevant is only useful if you're helping your lanes get ahead as well. A jungler that just afk farms all game is useless. you should be farming camps while on the way to do other things.

Marshbouy1 votes

Who said people are just afk farming? from what i have been told me, farming to hit a level/gold power spike is a waste of time.

Kaioko3 votes

You hit your Q with malphite thus slowing them, you smite them and then start hitting them with red buff. For any champion that is overextended without an escape ability that can spell serious trouble. On the other hand you also force that lane to play more carefully because that person is now afraid of ganks. Half of jungling is just playing mind games.

Veigarisgod12 votes

bc all laners are idiots who constantly overextend....

If they're not then you farm as it typically means they are not struggling. If your mid or top laner is hugging their turret pre 6 for dear life because they're afraid of getting killed which is going to result in the opposing laner getting fed - then you should probably help so that your team stands a chance of winning the game.

Warpes3 votes

Ummmmmm...yes?

That's literally all you do as a jungle. Is there something else the rest of the fucking universe missed? Some other jungling objective that miraculously only you know about?

Stop being a butthurt little twat, and understand that you're bad, and your "malphite can't gank pre6 qq" logic is bad. rather than making more threads, crying for sympathy on a champ that isn't even a meta jungler, learn to play the game.

Essentially what you are saying is "fuck you, be the laners bitch and never cs for yourself because that's a waste of time" yeah ok.

VoidStaresBack2 votes

No, that's not it at all. nobody says "never cs", of course the jungler is going to farm at points, even chain-ganking junglers will pick up a camp or two between ganks. The problem is that if you spend all your time farming without applying any pressure anywhere, you've given the enemy team free reign to do whatever they want. Applying pressure doesn't have to mean "ganking", although it often does. You can also counterjungle, something that pre-six warwick can do since while he may not have the fastest clears he's a strong early game duelist due to his passive draintanking and is incredibly safe in the jungle, allowing him to almost constantly have more health than his opponents. Your opponent is now denied whatever farm you took or forced out of their jungle if they tried to fight you over it, setting them behind.

Marshbouy2 votes

No, that's not it at all. nobody says "never cs"

that is literally what they are saying. I have been repeatedly told that csing as a jungler is a waste of time and i should always be invading and ganking.

the rest of your comment is pure strawman.

VoidStaresBack2 votes

None of my comment is a strawman, it's a breakdown of a scenario and an analysis of what a weak ganker can do to apply pressure. Also, I've yet to see anyone actually say "don't CS", what I do see them say is "apply pressure/gank". You can do both, it's not that hard.

Marshbouy1 votes

90% of your comment is a strawman. read these comments and the ones on my other post

I'm confused. What are you accomplishing exactly if you're a jungler that doesn't gank, take objectives, or counter jungle?

for example. Nothing in there about farming to stay relevant in gold and levels. I then got a "jungle main" telling me i was cringey and that i should stop playing jungle for wanting to get CS so im not behind.

DeathBurst2 votes

Ummmm... no?

What do laners do, during the first 15 minutes of a game, they take objectives? No, they farm and they get items, and maaaaybe they try to take a kill, but the higher you go in ELOs, the less kill there is in lane.

Well, instead of being insulting and demeaning, just realize it's the same for the Jungler. His top priority in early game is getting gold and items, just like everyone else, and you can do that by farming the jungle just as well as with ganks. Of course, a good jungler will recognize gank opportunities and will come and collect the free gold, but no jungler has any obligation to gank, and most of all, no jungler has the responsibility to save your lane for you if you lost it alone by yourself... He'll try to do it if he can, because he still wants to win the game, but it's not his responsibility, and if you flame him for that, well, that's just stupid...

Yeah, nice sticker and all, but care to elaborate and to point to a specific flaw in my reasoning?

if you're not ganking, controlling objectives, OR counter jungling

the fuck are you doing and still "doing your job"

yes, if you're doing neither of those things you most certainly are NOT doing your job

uhh... that's kinda my point... if you actually ganked successfully and weren't a complete potato, you'd get gold and exp from said ganks. derp

guess that's too difficult for you though?

nobody said you can't cs. stop being a drama queen.

"crying" yes, because growing tired of people calling me a shit jungler for not ganking their lane is now crying. yeah f**k off.

if you weren't a blatantly shit jungler, just from seeing your posts alone, then maybe no one would call you a crybaby.

Marshbouy1 votes

? How exactly? From the flash i just burned because not every gank results in a kill? Does the 30 xp count from the melee minion that died as we were engaging on the enemy? Minion tax? yeah that doesn't exist in my elo. IF you even touch their minions they spam ping you back and tell you to never gank them again, even if you literally only took 2 casters.

nobody said you can't cs. stop being a drama queen.

yes. yes they did. Repeatedly. I was directly told that if i was not either counter jungling, ganking, or taking an objective then i was worthless. Notice that csing to hit lvl 6 is not in there.

maybe if you weren't such a stuck up idiot then I would take you seriously.
