Yeah. True. They feed and blame us for not being there. >.>
the rodent is so cute
As a jungle main myself, when I play mid or top I only blame the jungler when he is stupid and feeds never mind, I don't blame the jungler
never understood this, i can understand blaming a support for being awful (or ad) but blaming the jungler is ridiculous
It's funny, as a Jungle/Top main, whenever I go mid I never blame the jungle for ANYTHING, unless they suck at ganking. But if they are not there and I screw up it is my fault and riot's for making an unbalanced champion that can kill mine. You would think Zed counters Weeb magnet Katarina but it's the other way around.
Can someone explain to me how I'm supposed to be interpreting this gif?
I think the problem here is the the jungle is a, if not the most, high-pressured role in the game. You have to constantly be aware of the map, know when to gank, where to ward, make sure you're getting enough farm, etc. This is why I don't play jungle at all. But I can also see where people, including me and others here, have blamed the jungler. The jungler in question probably doesn't know how to jungle and gank half the time, but the communication between the jungler and his teammates is absolute shit. And with the most recent changes to the jungle, it's going to be even more difficult not just for old and current junglers, but new junglers as well. This is going be a very toxic situation going well into Season 5 and one that Riot won't recognize until it's too late. Because hey! Riot totally cares about the community and the fans have to say, right? Yeaaaah... - __-
Here's the twist, the squirrel was the enemy jungler who's ganked 8 times, while the black cat (allied jungler) still hasn't left the jungle all game.
Now you may blame the jungler.

I play jungle a lot and I blame junglers a lot too lol. I understand that getting behind in lane is your fault, but there is only so much you can do. If you are playing someone like Nasus or Jax with a less than stellar early game against a lane bully like Riven or Renekton and their jungler camps your lane, even if you don't feed kills you will fall behind in CS/experience to avoid dying. If your jungler is playing a gank heavy jungler, but decides to farm 24/7 because 'new jungle is hard' while the lane bully is now proxying you/able to kill you under tower(the two easiest ways to kill a top laner as a jungler), then how can you not blame them? Even worse is when they finally decide to come help while you are 20% health and mana, you back ping them 40 times because you know they are 2 levels higher than your jungler and if you help they'll just kill you and walk away from the gank(or double kill). The jungler runs in, tower dives solo, feeds them double buffs and then blames you for not helping. Another thing I hate is that carry junglers will go gank carry lanes with no CC and fail to lock the laner down so they get away, but CC junglers will gank passive lanes and fail to do enough damage so they get away. I mean it should be pretty simple if you are playing a champ without much CC to go gank for the Maokai/Alistar and not the pre-6 Akali/Kassadin if you want to actually get a kill. The last thing is 95% of junglers are scared to take Dragon/Baron. I make it a point to get almost every single Dragon when I jungle and to get Baron as close to when it spawns as possible. If we just killed the jungler and top laner, but we are 40% health we ARE NOT too low to do the Baron. It doesn't even spawn until 20 minutes now AND IS EASIER TO KILL. I was doing that thing 15 minutes in before 4.20. If the enemy has had 5 un-contested Dragons where your jungler is on the other side of the map with Smite down as the timer tells you it is spawning, who else can you blame? Blame yourself for not being able to 1v5 or 3v5 at best if some people pay attention in the dragon pit? Or blame the jungler for giving zero shits about objectives?
Such true, much truth.
Whenever a jungler whines about his lanes sucking, yet he refuses to do anything to alleviate pressure in ANY WAY (be it ganking, counter jungling, taking objectives, or warding), what the jungler is essentially saying is "why aren't my laners carrying me?"
You made my day - and it just started :D
Thank you!
So true...
While I feel you should only blame the jungler if he feeds your lane doubles or something, what really annoys me is when your team comp relies on an early lead, but you get some guy who last picks Udyr and refuses to gank, while not directly their fault, they should be quite aware that they may have just lost the game with their pick.
-> snowballs top and bot
-> mid feeds
-> tfw "report jungle wont gank mid"
rofl. When i saw this i was like, "WHY!! peplz just dum lol"
I've blamed my jungler once. That was the other day. Had a pantheon who didn't gank, wouldn't do a dragon, wouldn't do a baron, didn't do anything but farm entire game. Worthless.
i dont blame anyone. i just call them out when they are feeding.
