Is this griefing if your jungler does this?

Ada Wong··2 votes·453 views

I have had a horrid experience in a couple of games sadly one after the other...

Basically I know bad play isn't report worthy, for example the JG failing to Flash +Q over a wall to get the kill and get ahead, or taking green smite and helping to ward when imo it was the best option if they couldn't help they could have done that would have been very helpful...

Basically what I think is punish worthy under (Griefing) I had a JG in two of my games just run into my lane Pushing the CS giving enemy team the lead both games they knew it was unwelcome, and proceeded to continue to do such intentionally throwing the whole early lane phase by running in pushing the cs / farming again when asked to stop...

Again two games where I have been forced to Mute everyone to avoid saying hateful stuff, but is this punish worthy under griefing because I am honestly sick of it, and going to end up filing two reports for this...

Just say tax me one more time and I'll throw.

Also wait five minutes then steal their red or blue buff while they are farming it.

Make sure they are taxing in a dumb way first though. If they clear your wave and do a ton of tower damage while the jungler was far away that's not really taxing that's a good play.

No idea who the hell made up the stupid taxing in a MOBA, but "Taxing" anyways, but if Taxing was what was really going on then I really wouldn't have a problem with it...

. The peeps I saw doing this were flat out "Pining over 3 seconds out half way across the map" never coming in on time when they would ping.

. Ran into the lane for the sole purpose to grief shoving lane giving the enemy the lead intentionally

. Kill Stealing, I generally don't complain about players who do this because its a team game, but when a JG intentionally runs into a lane takes the kill you die as a result and they keep running in after being after its clear its unwanted, then there is a problem...

I mean in General Riot banned / Suspended Singed bot players and off meta for doing it (Not because breaking the meta is ban worthy but because it upset other players on the team, just as the idiot locking taric and being a useless idiot earlier really upset me, although in Solo Queue there really isn't much of a way to deal with that, but if a player can get punished for this type of behavior, then "Clearly running into a lane constantly as a Jungle" and putting the enemy ahead when a player has made it clear its unwanted and its creating problems (Then it should be punish worthy for griefing.)

I had one one time don't remember which one where a player did this shit, and then everyone on the team was throwing insults at each-other because obviously the entire game is being screwed by one person, and everyone is throwing insults at each-other...

I mean I understand the concept of taxing, and the JG's who do play correctly, or at least try because I have seen how players play JG and don't create a big problem like some people do, I think the biggest issue is people think its always best to just run in and gank every single time without thinking about it first even when things are even at that moment and there is no advantage over than screwing over your ally.

It's not punishable, sorry.

I know it frustrates you. Just do your best to ask the jungler politely not to push your lane. If he's pushing it because you're not there, tell him to hold the lane by last hitting so the lane doesn't push out and put you at a disadvantage. If you're not there and he's only last hitting minions or clearing out minions under turret then you should be happy with that because the gold and XP isn't going to waste. If he's joining you to push the lane because the enemy isn't there, then just push the lane in and get some tower damage, or again politely inform him that you don't want the lane pushed.

If he's joining you to push the lane 2v1, that's super weird. Tell him (again, politely!) that you have it handled and that you both will be behind in levels if he hangs around too long. But if he's pushing an empty lane, or holding your lane while you're based, that's totally common jungler behavior and you should be prepared to communicate your intentions about your lane.
