Life of a Jungler

So I was recently in a game as Shyvana. I had a Quinn top lane against a Garen. She was constantly pushed the entire lane phase with 0 wards down. She got ganked like 2-3 times and died. I ended going 11/3/9 and I'm carrying this game. I said let's baron and end. Quinn: "no gank = no talk. Bi***."

Ping Dragon timer. 1min. Ping Dragon timer 30s. "You guys coming?" Ping Dragon timer 15s. Ping Dragon Alive. Team still jerking off in lane. Enemy starts doing dragon. I hop the wall and miss the smite by 30hp.

Sigh

This happens a lot in my games.

Toplaner: gives 2 kills to enemy top 1on1 in the first couple minutes

Toplaner: "HELLOOOO! Gank me!"

Me (who made our bot big and already killed a Drake): "Sry Botlane and Drake's are too important this meta. I can't gank a losing lane. Just hug tower and farm, we will carry you"

Toplaner: Keeps pushing without wards and is still trying to 1on1 fed enemy, giving him even more kills "Fucking GANK me you useless shit jungler!"

Me (while killing third Drake): "PLAY PASSIVE!! We are winning!"

Toplaner: Still keeps pushing. Get ganked. Runs back to his tower while dropping to 5% HP. Get killed under his tower "GG FF 15 Jungle difference!!"

Me: "I told you to play passive"

Toplaner: Pinging his corpse under his tower like a tard "HELLO!!! THEY DIVE ME! I CANT DO SHIT!!*

This Diamond btw.

Dear laners, diving doesn't mean that you fight against enemy in the middle of your lane and then die under your tower with the last 3% HP. Diving means they 100 to 0 you under your tower. And most of the time they can only do that if you fed them before!

Learn to put your ego back and let you get carried if you have a bad game. Just ONE TIME! PLS!

In this meta you should be happy if enemy jungler camps top because it's almost always a win for your team if he wasting his time toplane and give away Drake's and bot prio. You just need to play it right and don't die at EVERY SINGLE gank!

Life of jungler: always behind other lanes 2-3 levels, a crappier second support brought just to smite dragons.

Playing Kayn. 0/4 pretty okay cs. But feeding my ass off. Enemy lee sin is 10/2. Fed out his ass. Shit cs. (Partially my fault)

Yeah guess who had the bounty on him for 700 gold. Hint. Wasn’t the lee.

Losing 50% of my camps because my mid doesn't understand it's a fucking team game and letting your laner roam free is a horrible idea.

I don't understand why so many of my games the enemy mid is just so helpful to the enemy jg whereas my mid is just afk. Then my team is like jg why are you so far behind jg.

I fucking swear it happens like every another game.

I have to ping the location of the enemy jungler, (usually just guessing) mia ping for lanes who arent, focus on farming, focus the location of waves and push rate of 3 lanes in order to try and choose 1 to gank at a certain time as well as focus my time and clear path in order to counter the enemy jungler or kill dragons and get major objectives. Give buffs away to laners when i believe they will utilize it properly, as well as try and keep moral of the team high while i ask for roams or to pressure a lane so i can grab an objective.

All while trying to get players to not tilt/rage/int and possibly play their role properly so we can win the game.

**This is literally the junglers job, people who dont know how to play the role will always complain, do what you know to be right, mute the negativity, and stay positive in your criticism and relaying the shot calls to your team. **

Jung is the team captain. He is the main shot caller.

this new dragon system basically has made me quit jungle. Playing Farmville is for facebook not league. That and the new dragon system is pretty bad all i do now is stay bottom and contest dragon.

Back when the scuttler spawned earlier.

I was playing Seju on red side and started blue, i cleared it and some other camp then went and took the scuttler, i then went back into my jungle and went on wolves i think before seeing Kayn run right over the scuttler towards botlane.

I ping him like 6 times and what does my botlane do? They who are in the middle of the lane and can easily run?

They decide to chillax for like 10 seconds so kayn reaches the river bush by the lane (no ward there) i ping them to back off.......and they go all in, and Kayn gets a early double kill.

"Useless jungler(me)"

2 minutes later i am clearing the scuttler in topside river when i realize my toplaner is literally pushing enemy in under tower range, i write to him that his spot is terrible because Kayn can walk through walls and i wont be able to save him if that happens.

He stays there and even tries to harass the ....maokai i think it was and Kayn pops out not even 5 seconds later and kills him.

"GG jungle diff"

Meanwhile Midlane my Karma is playing super aggressively into an Azir and both are at half health, i put a ward down on one side but warn her that Kayn will be looking at her.

10 seconds later he naturally appears when Azir is doing a super crappy all in kills her, and leaves, 15 seconds later she teleports back while the still half health Azir stays nearby as if nothing is wrong, then he and the Kayn who just poped out of a wall immediately engage on her and kill her when she finishes TP´´ing.

"Do something you useless piece of S**t* (addressed to me)

And i am just sitting there thinking "All you little imbeciles are basically serving yourselves up being so free even America cant compare, how the fk am i supposed to save you from yourselves?".

Of course i´ve had occasions as a laner where my jungler decides to attack the opposing jungler who is equally strong near my lane, just after that bugger ganked me down to 40% health while my laner is still at 100%.

Naturally he has complete lane priority and thus can easily help his jungler and mine then goes "Sigh, another game lost because of trash laners, GG" and this after i pinged him to back off before he even engaged like 10 times. ' 'Another time its a level 7 lee sin at 70% who attacks a lvl 11 full HP Garen thinking he´d win because it´s under one of our towers.

Some people man i swear :(

Common occurrences, even though I have hit Gold Disclaimer - I have STILL won these matches even with the following:

  • Team ignores dragon when enemy cant contest it (Jungler is dead or backing/team is dead or backing)
  • Team sees vision of low health/low level enemy player invading our jungle. Proceeds to run around in circles in their lane not even farming instead of picking up a free 300 gold.
  • Lane pings for help, enemy laner/laners are under their turret. I'm sorry, did you want me to dive them when they have full hp/ult/summs? You must be out of your @#$%ing mind.
  • Lane pings for help, I'm on the opposite side of the map. 5 seconds later I watch them all in their opponent that is 4 kills and 30 cs ahead of them. 5 seconds after that am told it's my fault.
  • Come in for a gank after being pinged for help, ally is full hp/mana and just sits there farming minions as I 1 vs 1 their lane opponent. Proceeds to ping me a ? when I walk away without killing their opponent. 10 seconds later dies to opponent who was at half hp because of my gank.
  • Enemy is going down river through vision towards ally, ping a bunch to the laner and where the person was. Laner still acts like they are surprised when they die.
  • Enemy is sitting on top of vision doing herald or dragon solo. Everyone goes about their business like nothing is happening even though they can roam to help me. I get ? pinged when it gets taken and I am 2 levels below the enemy jungler they have been feeding. *People sitting right next to me as I am clearing a camp trying to get the last hit. Their original lane is full of minions they can farm safely, but they are mad that I didnt go into the 1 vs 5 with them and would rather try to yoink my gold then do something productive (9/10, they get squat)
  • Person thats 0/10/0 demanding buffs. Last time I let you have it you immediately died and gave it to the enemy. Proceed to throw a complete 3 year old meltdown tantrum that no one on your team will let you have them.
  • Ally is backing, roaming, or dead. Farm waves that the tower would kill anyway. Getting pinged like 20 times and flamed because that is THEIR lane and THEIR minions. Right... so the camps you took while roaming, and your lane is yours... so whats mine?
  • Games ends with crying laner stating how bad I am before they immediately leave end game chat. I have 50+ cs over them , 5+ kills or participated in every fight over them, gotten every drag/herald/baron and literally died 2 times compared to their 14. Get no honors and the only pat on the back I get is a 2 faced compliment from the enemy team "Your jungler was amazing compared to ours".

This isn't even everything, and I am told it gets worse as you go up. fml

2 games in a row I had a leash from top lane on my blue. After the leash ends my laner goes to lane and dies not a minute later

He then calls me a r%%%%% for not lvl 2 ganking him after he leashed me(Playing Master Yi btw), and flames me throughout the game, doesn't move away from tower and just sits there, and every time he was to die even when I'm on the literal other side of the map, he'd continue to flame and ping for a gank.
