As a jungler what do you hate

hewhodoesnotcare··6 votes·4,054 views

Pretty explanatory title.

I hate it that if one lane loses they expect you to gank their lane. Like it's somehow my job to clean up your mess. When you damn sure know that If I gank he will kill us both as well.

All three lane losing within 5min of the game.

Bot lane. I hate the bot lane.

e.g. Ahri solo kills her laner, so I camp mid, get first tower, get drag, THEN we go to 4v2 bot, but Varus is already AFK in base because the enemy jungler ganked him once so now he's 2/1

Same. There's nothing I despise more than my botlane. It always is feast or famine. Enemy summs down, 2 kills ahead, manages to feed. Next gank, even more ahead, somehow still getting killed without any help from the enemy jungler. I just don't get it, even in games where I'm playing Kindred, we have a Jinx/Kai'sa/Tristana + Janna and tank top, botlane still goes complete ham so many times, instead of just chilling, starving the enemy with your advantage, they feel like "We're lategame carry + Janna, let's towerdive".

Besides that, top laners constantly pinging for help. Like really, I'd love to get some good gank off and bring top ahead, but most of the time the priority is Bot>Mid>Drake>Herald>Enemy jungle>Top. It's not my goddamn fault you picked a no cc, no sustain top laner. You're expected to be more or less self sustaining. Yes, I will gank your lane, no I won't gank your lane when 30 farm and 3 kills behind. Deal with it and pick a top laner that can actually be useful without constant babysitting or being behind. If you cant manage top lane, pick fucking Maokai, don't give a fuck and be useful later.

In almost any game: Laners not reacting to anything outside of their lanes boundaries, even when I'm fighting the enemy jungler directly beneath my mid, they won't even move anywhere near me, even if the enemy mid isn't really a threat.

when the mid laner walks over to scuttle with their jungler for a 2v1 and my mid laner doesn't follow ._.

I just hate when people just dont realize I exist and only acknowledge my existence when they need something every time I lane I do everything I can to make my junlgers life easy like helping with scuddle if i have lane priority leash a camp while walking to lane deep wards in enemy jungle so many laners dont do these things and only care for whats going on in their lane.

Three things:

  1. When people flame you for not ganking when they spend their whole lane under enemy tower or dead, then cry about how the other jungler is better. Maybe stop shoving when you're losing? This is amplified when they are in a premade and there's multiple crybabies complaining about their "trash" jungle.

  2. When I gank lanes a ton of times but we don't secure the kill, then my team uses the enemy jungles kill participation as evidence they've ganked more. Sometimes the enemy is a slippery champ, sometimes we blow summs, and sometimes it's actually a misplay on my or my laner's part, but don't act like I'm not applying pressure if we don't get the kill.

  3. Related to 2, when I'm farming to catch up because we didn't pick up gold or the enemy laner is fed and I don't want to go to that lane, so I get flamed for it. Playing safe and trying to catch up is looked on as a good skill for laners, but people seem to think jungle should just rush for kills over and over no matter how behind we are. Plus, some champions like Evelynn or Kayn get huge swings in power at 6, so if the enemy lane is already fed securing that swing is vital.

Lol at the #2. Not just fail ganks, those guys even complain when they don't get the kill even if you actually succeeded in the ganks. Enemy jungler: 4/0/8 Amumu - /all "at least you guys have a useful jungler who doesn't ks every kill". Me: 9/1/1 Yi who got first turret, rift, 2 dragons and a 2 level advantage on everyone on the map - "typical KDA player". Can't win, as long as your team's on the losing side, it will always be your fault. Not even the eventual baron solo could redeem my "sins".

Shaco in my jungle

When my team forces Drake/Baron when enemy Jungler is alive and then he steals Drake/Baron and my team goes: "OMG fucking SMITE" "LOOL JUNGLE DIFFERENCE" and start pinging my Smite on CD or not.

Yeah. You guys understand it's fucking 50/50 chance if the enemy Jungler lives, right??? HIS SMITE DOES THE EXACT SAME DMG! So it's a fucking coinflip who wins Smite Duell. And that's why I pinged you morons back! Especially when enemy Jungler is 1 lvl above me with stronger smite than mine. I don't know if your little brains can understand that, but it makes no difference if we are 5 and he is alone when only the Smite at the end is what counts. My Smite isn't stronger just because we are more!!

Don't forget the team just stops attacking and canceling their autos and you smite to early because you think they will continue and enemy jungler be like "lul easy steal ggwpez"

What I hate most is that when I have an early farm advantage and a laner dies so I cover their lane and I get a whopping 11 & 4 gp from last hitting minions the laner was going to miss anyway. I mean I am level 4 up by a whole 10 cs and I just get railed becaue I haven't even had a chance to b yet. It is infuriating.

scuttle crab changes, i REALLY don't want to fight you at level 2 when im at 30% hp TYVM

who the fuck thought that was a good idea.

i used tyo always go to scuttle to heal up... becuase u know ATTACKING SCUTTLE HEALS YOU.

if its a contested objective how the hell am i supposed to risking going there when i need to heal off it at my weakest point in the game at lvl 2

I hate early invades the most Riot should seal up our own jungle pre level 6

BigFBear2 votes

My life...

BigFBear2 votes

I always, ALWAYS invade as Voli otp because it's working fucking awesome. If we find a player there it's first blood for us 80% of the time. If the enemy ADC or Supp uses Flash to survive the invade i gank them right after Buff at lvl 2 and almost everytime we can kill him. So my BOT is ahead at least 1 kill + enemy used all Sums. Five minutes later: My botlane somehow managed to feed 4 deaths into enemy ADC.

EVERY F***ING TIME

I dispise toxic toplanes almost as much as hard feeding botlanes.

If your ass is playing riven into like Illaoi or renekton or darius I dont want to get 1v2d because you were an idiot and early engaged That doesnt excuse you to scream “kys you fucking ret-“ etc or pingspam all game Oh what a shocker, you finally start scaling because of ___ champ pick Which is the reason that i decided to snowball the mid and bot because they DONT naturally outscale or some other such reason P I N G ?????? P I N G ‘Fucking spaz autist jungle never ganks reeee’

-like at least 60% of low elo toplanes

Annoying re-enactments aside, pretty much the usual. Busted meta picks and stat-checks, feeding lanes, and toxicity. Nothing else really grinds my gears that much.

Jaxusalem2 votes

When toplaner dies like 3-4 times trying to 1v1 the enemy toplaner, then proceeds to blame me because im not diving the enemy darius at level 3, then starts to int the lane all the game saying ggwp better jungler wins [slayer-jinx-unamused]

With how top lane works right now, most meta picks can pretty consistently all-in their opponents if they have even a slight lead. An early jungle gank before 2 minutes (really common to start red then go straight up to top between 1:50 and 1:55 as Xin, Lee, and a few other meta junglers) followed by a second around 2:35-2:40 when the jungler hits 3 can easily burn a flash then get a kill on a top laner, who will then be all ined and dove any time they come back to lane; often with jungle pressure.

If you as your team's jungle don't do anything, you may as well just AFK or surrender there. There is absolutely fuck all your top laner can do against that; especially by themselves. They won't even be able to play the game. By level 11-13 they should be 3+ levels down, 40-50 CS behind, and probably 0/3/0 to 0/7/0 depending on how many times they were dove under tower. If you see that shit happening , you NEED TO REACT or else you're basically saying "fuck off, I don't give a single solitary shit about you" to your top laner, and asking to lose the game.

Common occurence: laners treating my jungle like their god given right. You have a lane for gold and XP. Use the dam thing and leave my buff and camps alone.

Rarer: lanes losing before I can do anything (level 1-2 all ins).

1°) People who don't understand that they've to manage their waves. 2°) People who don't help for scuttles 3°)People who play aggressively for no reasons then get rekted while assuming their jungler job is to help them to get back in the game. 4°) People who never ward.

Laners.

Mr Bob Boberson2 votes

Don't play as much jungle as I used to but there are a lot of things I can't stand

  1. Scuttle changes are so annoying when I have to contest it and I see laners roaming down just to get a scuttle, It's a small little crab that doesn't even fight back why is it so damn important?

  2. People forcing Baron and Dragon (Without enough damage to rush it) when my smite is on cool down

  3. People flaming me for not helping when I was low hp, across the entire map, the laner could easily score a double kill, I was being invaded, and any number of reasons, and then they just make up an excuse for why they can't help me when i'm invaded but i'm always supposed to help them

  4. Somehow falling behind when I'm forced to constantly gank because people keep telling me to, and then the gank doesn't end up successful, which leads into me power farming to catch up and people still complain that i don't gank
