Lee Sin with the new jungle

Seyfti·Nov 29, 2016·2 votes·978 views

I am a support main and with these new changes most of the games featuring Lee Sin are over before 3 minute mark. So with the new jungle changes in this preseason every game I am seeing Lee Sin's go Red (Level 2)>Krugs (Level 3)>Gank Bot. With a good leash on the Red Buff they can achieve this before the bot lane even hits level 2. How am I supposed to deal with level 3 Lee Sin coming into my lane before I even have two spells to defend my self? Warding isn't really an option since he comes before wave 2 even hits. Even if you manage to survive the gank you most likely burn all of your summs and lose the lane to enemy bot lane. Same thing happens when he was on my team, easiest double kill of my life.

So when is this getting adjusted because this is broken beyond belief?

Well I guess so, still seems incredibly unfair to be able to enter my lane as level 3 when I am not even level 2 yet. I am playing at Diamond Elo so people usually have at least somewhat decent mechanics. I guess I was just tilted from today. Most of the games today the enemy team had a Lee Sin and I lost each and every game because Lee Sin got fed expect for one game which I managed to carry along with my Ezreal.

If you are one red side you have to play passive bot lane early and if you are on blue side you have to play passive top side early. This is the way of the game right now, you will probably be cheesed by their jungler if they can early gank. Also, it's not broken beyond belief. It is all up to the players not to die to that gank, that means giving up pressure in your lane, but that is what you have to do sometimes if you want to win.

Well to be fair - if you know his tactic, dont run into it, maybe??? (not defending lee here he's annoying as always.)

But if you know where lee is, use that. dont push, ward!, and if he shows up your jgl can farm lees blue jgl.

All valid points but sometimes your AD carry naturally outpushes the enemy carry such as Ashe vs Ezreal game I had. Or my AD carry just decides that he will yolo and push in the wave so we can get level 2 faster but doesn't account for Lee Sin. Warding river before wave 2 even hits to prevent a cheese is an option but you are most likely dead after that to a roam or a normal gank.

There is definitely some counterplay but the tactic is just too strong right now in terms of kill potential and pressure applied or summs burned. Basically to survive you have to make a greater trade off than fending off a normal gank for example.
