You scare me :(

Mostly because I pride myself in using text only jokes in memes and games.

I actually hardly get XP in the jungle because I know how much a early gank can change a match. If I were to pull it off right, the areas I gank will get their needed CS, and confidence. It does make it harder to jungle, but I'm fine with that. I just need two spells on any champion to do this. On Udyr, its my Q and E. On Tryndamere, its my E and W. And on Aatrox, I just use my E, I use the W to help survive when in the jungle.

the one thing i love about karthus jungle. "Karthus stop farming and gank" doing wraiths ults "there is your gank"

ShinjusukeFeb 29, 20164 votes

To be fair, and I'll be the first to admit Karthus jungle is gimmicky-at-best, in theory a simultaneous burst on all lanes should result in at least ONE of those lanes being at a significant advantage, provided Karthus isn't super behind.

charcharmunroMar 1, 20161 votes

GP Jungle pre-rework was less gimmicky and a lot like that, too, right? Ganked while farming?

ShinjusukeMar 1, 20161 votes

Truth be told this version of GP is better at that than old GP, because his ult can actually be a threat.

The reason Karthus jungle works for "ult-only ganks" is that his burst is a guranteed fuckload of damage (or burned shields/heals/zhonyas etc), which means it's undeniably useful. And in lane, even if it doesn't necessarily net a kill, any non-sustain or weak sustain lane just lost like 1/3rd their hp, usually.

So it's always useful.

Old GP ult however did kinda shit damage, and was in a fairly-easy-to-escape zone. Usually all you'd end up doing was pushing your ally's lane (which is bad) or stealing some of their farm (also bad).

So yes and no. Yes, some GP players tried to play that way. No, it was not even arguably comparable to Karthus. I'm allowed to say that because I played a bunch of both of them (4 gp/10 items jungle bankplank build ftw)

elon wątrobaMar 1, 20161 votes

GP ulti was and still is a perfect countergank ability, if you have some of map awareness :D.

ShinjusukeMar 1, 20161 votes

Sure, no doubt about that. I'm specifically talking about what people were discussing: Karthus being able to, almost viably, only ever gank with his ult and almost never stop farming.

GP cannot in any way actually do that, and trying to is doing little more than screwing over your teammates.

New GP is better at it than old GP, but he's still bad at it.

CR00KFeb 29, 20163 votes

Here's the thing, most people don't want you to gank their lane. They want you to WIN it for them.

ShonjlMar 1, 20161 votes

Basically this. Thats why I usually let those people suffer alone. I am not your babysitter or bitch. I am playing to have fun and help lanes that are actually useful. If you are getting killed literally 4 minutes into the game, guess where I am never going?

Id rather let one lane suffer and cry and bitch me out and let them be just a meat shield, and make the other 2 lanes more likely to win. Or let myself become a force to reckon with if x lanes are failing.

I feel that way as the support. I have literally been through five consecutive fights as another teammate or two jump into a fight, get killed or wounded, they recall, but I have to stay around right as another one jumps in. By the end of it, I'm out of health and mana and I move to recall, and then I get yelled at for not participating in teamfights.

ArdèntFeb 29, 20162 votes

I love when this happens because as a jungler i have plenty of other things to do besides gank a whiny ass adc's lane. Whether its warding, putting pressure on mid lane, or trying to clear my jg to get a lvl advantage when i finally get around to your lane, I might take up to 4 waves.

GentzerMar 1, 20162 votes

The first time playing Jungle in Ranked...aaaaah. I was playing Elise, and I got a gank in for both top and mid before 7 minutes and got kills.

5 minutes later

Top and Mid dies while I'm ganking Bot.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

ApollogyMar 1, 20162 votes

Yeah, it's all your fault. Honestly, I hate it when there are no lanes that have possible ganks... Sometimes you're just screwed, but it's still possible to carry those games.

AeszarckFeb 29, 20161 votes

AND you're playing a Devourer jungler. That's when it gets ugly.

"noct pls gank fizz he's low"

UrbanSerpentFeb 29, 20161 votes

You would think last-hitting would be a thing. It's also lovely when the opposing laner is someone that can get away easily too and your own laner has zero cc. Ahri Leblanc Zed Fizz

Misara HiramaFeb 29, 20161 votes

I tend to main ADC, you are welcome to hate on me for the current meta, not my decision and if I could revert it, I would in a heartbeat, because having every lane bear down on you with a murderous vengeance is not very fun somedays. As it becomes a "Who can gank bot the best FIRST" game, rather than laning phase. Anyway, my complaints aren't why Im posting.

I try very hard to be the bot lane that doesn't do that to the jungler, I can get frustrated when my lane is being ganked constantly, tower dive, I'm being denied farm and exp...but if the Jungler is making plays, getting mid/top fed...or doing ANYTHING beyond just farming. (Shy of being like, Yi...or something.) I try to keep quiet, focus on not falling to far behind...and just doing my best. I try very hard not to blame the support or jungler for poor games. I WILL blame lanes if they do stupid shit, like trying to fight the person they have died to THREE TIMES, instead of getting what farm and exp they can...That...infuriates me. (Not that I type in all chat much at all anyway...)

So...totes never blame the jungler unless it is legitmately their fault (Like...getting caught in the enemy's jungle, 8 times or something and not learning the first seven times lol.)

PrisonNightmareMar 1, 20161 votes

I was jungling and there was an ashe and a teemo on our bot lane who were feeding while I was help out our top lane. So what do they do? They blame it on me and say "You didnt gank our lane" and im like "MF I WASNT THE ONE FEEDING THE OTHER TEEMO AND IM KIND OF BUSY ATM" and then they got toxic and started trash talking. and then they proceeded to feed. This was probably the worst game ive ever had in my short experience in playing league.

Beached ManateeMar 1, 20161 votes

It happens often and in greater intensity <3

DayboozerMar 1, 20161 votes

my biggest problem is when bot lane is super aggressive and has their lane pushed to the enemy tower and they scream that they have been ganked 3 times and i haven't come once.....they have been ganked because thier lane is constantly pushed and i haven't ganked because i'm not tower diving for them at lvl 6.

RakvirMar 1, 20161 votes

A-yup. That's a sound summary.

lonsacMar 1, 20161 votes

I hate when this happens. I main jgs and sometimes I prefer not to play them because people will start dying and blaming me because of that. But then I play Illaoi top and almost 75% of the time get ahead in my lane but my team decide to mess their lanes and i have to carry the whole game alone because they are so busy dying and "defending" (supposedly) while I destroy the turret and then die once the enemy team kill everybody else in my team and see I am on they base destroying everything.

ShonjlMar 1, 20161 votes

I always facepalm when that happens, if all lanes lost before I even have part of my jungle item up, I usually dont bother. Its one thing if 1 lane is losing or even 2 lanes if 1 is winning. But if all of them are losing and crying, ill just hide in my jungle til I myself am worth a damn.

My own view is it is not the Jungle's job to babysit you, I will help if you show promise of doing good or if its an easy assist or kill for me. But if you lose lane that is entirely your own problem. I got my own issues like actually keeping up in Xp and gold and not getting counter jungled to babysit a bad player.

But on the reverse side, when your jungle doesn't help when it is an easy gank then they fully deserve to get flamed. I lost count of how many times I saw other jungles ignore the mid that has no wards, about 50% hp and they are at your tower. That is the easiest gank ever.
