PSA for Lee Sin players and "early game" junglers

If you are playing Lee Sin and actually want to win the game, it's way more important for you to give kills to your team than to have them yourself. (This is actually true for most junglers)

I just a had a game that was a perfect example. Our Lee was 8/0/1 at 15 minutes no other player on our team had more than 1 kill. The enemy jungler was like 0/2/8. Guess what happened in the first teamfight, they aced us easily without losing anyone since their carries were ahead of our carries. After that it was FF at 20.

Moral of the story: Early game junglers cannot carry teamfights by themselves. Use your early game to get your lanes ahead, not yourself.

I think getting kills are less important compared to managing minion waves.

Like if the Lee took the kill, and help me shove the wave into turret (While letting me taking the majority of them), the enemy is going to be down CS, and I still get almost a kill's worth of gold, and more experience than the opponent.

But if the Lee gave me the kill, and mess with my lane causing me to loose minions in a winning lane, it's far worse than letting him take the kill. I'm down level, which is critical in mid match ups.
