I see this A TON, i see games lost and won over it, its huge, and ive almost never heard it spoken on. **Counter Gank safety and pre play. **

One of the fastest ways to lose a lane and a game is to start off with a successful gank or roam and to come out with a loss due to forgetting about the rest of the enemy team.

When you gank a lane, ESPECIALLY A SUCCESFUL GANK, You need to be 100% aware of whats going on in the jungle and other lanes.

If youre ganking bot, scrying orb the enemy jungle, place a control on drag pit, another ward in the bush youre passing through, make the gank quick and clean, and be AWARE THAT THE ENEMY JUNGLER OR MID IS PROBABLY GOING TO COME CLEAN UP.

Ive seen way too many successful plays squandered to overconfidence and tunnel vision. The MOMENT kills are secured botlane the first thing im screaming 100% of the time is, "watch for the jungler, where is he, where is mid, im warding river, care jg, care mid roam, etc etc. And this causes massive safety and the ability to secure a snowball.

TLDR: Know where the enemy team is while ganking so you dont end up grey screened directly after your awesome firstblood doublekill.
