Jg plz (Small rant)

That mean that you want to jungle right? It doesn't mean "Hey, you, go duo top and leave mid unguarded," right?

Didn't think so.

Had this happen to me last night. Got into an Intermediate bot match so I could practice jungling without having to worry about enemy jungler. I know, not the best way, but what can I say? I'm chicken and afraid of PVP jungling. I do plan on correcting this. /end tangent

Anyway, I get into lobby, wait and make sure everyone has connected and say "Jg plz" before anyone has even selected a champ or even attempted to call a lane or whatnot.
Notice that I added "plz," simply to confer that if someone else wanted it, they could have it.

Champs are selected, a couple call lane, the others don't and we move to the load screen. I'm looking forward to some easy practice with my shiny new jg champ.

Match starts.... Sivir and Bard go bot. I move to Red buff. Darius goes top.....and so does Garen?

I point this out and ask what's up with mid. Darius immediately tells me I'm the r%%%%% for jungling in a bot match. Whoa guy, chill....so I try to jungle while basically camping mid exclusively. Not too bad.

Later on, I ask why they were duoing. : It's boring to solo top. : Because you're the idiot that wanted to jungle in a bot match.

Why would someone be like that? D: Sorry for the rant guys, just needed a vent.

If you want to practice jungling in a bot match, try this: Create a custom game and make your team 4 beginner bots and the enemy team 5 intermediate. Then you can practice carry jungling at a lower level

At least you played a champ that doesn't need a leash. Some people just don't understand the meaning of 'practice'

Anyway I woulda reported the Darius.

I try all new/free champs out in custom all bot games before i try in normals. I cant see myself going into pvp without even knowing the mechanics of a champ or their skill usage and how they feel. That would get me instapwned and raged at :D. Now i dont usually play players vs A.I. i play a few games in custom then if i like the feel of the champ or the role with said champ ill hop into some normals team builders to get a better feel in pvp. These all go into my decisions on if im going to purchase said champ or not.

I feel ya, man. I feel ya.

I wanted to practice my last-hitting yesterday, so I said to the Darius on my team that he can have all the kills, as long as I can farm safely. I lock in Kog'Maw (because Kog'Maw is the cutest ADC) since someone already claimed mid. Game starts, I'm solo bottom, getting way too much harass to farm safely. Then Darius comes back, steals my creeps, pushes down both the outer and shield turrets then goes off roaming again. Suddenly I have all four AI bots in my lane and can't get any minions at all, because Darius has triggered their crap-we're-losing-turrets-everyone-go-to-the-losing-lane! behavior.

Yes, I know I can do custom games, but I'd also like to get some IP too, right?

Just take jungle farm + mid lane farm, I do it all the time in bot games. You'll get tons of gold with those cs and you can snowball easily. Play teleport if your champ isn't fast to defend mid turret.

You should just jungle in a custom match with no champs. You are only trying to learn how to take camps right? Why even play a bot games?
