A message to laners

I'm probably gonna get downvoted to hell and back because of how many there are of you who do this but it's really taking the piss now.

I'm sick of queuing up for jungle and having selfish players non stop asking for early ganks/buffs/lane pressure/whatever then flaming or inting when they don't get them, It's disgusting and quite frankly needs to stop.

You're not entitled to ganks/buffs/etc, regardless of how hard you carried last game, I don't give a fuck nor do I want to hear it, my role exist to: -gank(when possible) -counter ganking -securing objectives -counter jungling -ensuring nobody on my team is getting roflstomped.

My role does not consist of: -winning your lane for you(many of you assholes don't even try in lane and expect ganks left and right for it, I know your fucking game) -handing you free buffs for no reason(my farm is limited and contested by the enemy jungler, yours is an endless stream) -1v1'ing your laner while you farm

I don't care if it's a hard matchup, I don't care if your dad left you, I don't fucking care what excuse you bring to the table, spam pings and flame all you bloody want mate, it won't bring me to your lane any sooner infact I might avoid your lane the whole match.

Tl;dr Stop being a [EDITED OUT LANGUAGE NOT PERMITTED ON THE BOARDS].

OK, but you know what gets me?

  • When my Jungler doesn't gank any lane.
  • When my Jungler doesn't try to contest neutral objectives, despite several members of the team being prepared to contest said objective.
  • When my Jungler doesn't even try to steal the enemy jungle camps.
  • When said Jungler proceeds to state that none of that is their job.

As often as Junglers get Laners that suck, Laners get Junglers that suck. Just remember that.

OK but if you don't gank while they're under my tower for 2 minutes, I'm gonna ignore you as a carry or relevant. When you think about teamfighting/resources it's very important to consider who will or will not be useful and would be better off splitting for distractions.

I'm going to leave this up and only edit out the language that is not permitted on the boards. That said, please keep the discussion civil.

Thank you.

I'd edit out whatever you said that brought %%% to something less offensive just to avoid any punishment.

BUT I fully agree with you. The jungler's job is to gank if they can, as well as pressure enemy laners (including the enemy jungler), contest jungle objectives, and countergank. No lane is entitled to constant (or even a single) gank from the jungler if the jungler thinks it'd be outside their ability to perform a good gank.

Especially when laners make it really hard to gank (no vision, pushed to enemy turret, low health in lane) then blame the jungler, it's annoying.

I'm not a jungler and only play one if I'm autofilled. But even I know it's not worth the risk to gank a pushed lane with no wards.

Worse, it was a Teemo who could have been using his mushrooms as miniwards.

(For the record: it was normals, not ranked)
