PSA to all smite/teleport toplaners. sincerely enemy jungler
If I'm jungling against you, and I see that you did this "strat" I will camp you, and I will make your life as miserable as possible. especially if you for some really dumb reason started with machete, which gives you zero benefit in lane, and honestly makes ganking you a non issue.
TLDR: expect to be camped by an early game jungler or jungler that doesn't like you stealing their camps.
Edit: this isn't meant as a salt post to destroy diversity, just please stop playing like you flash when you don't have an escape. IE don't push as a champ with no escapes.
"I'll fucking pitch a fucking tent and start a campfire if a have to"
they deserve to be camped.
Anyway, it's a pretty cool strategy and (at least in my elo), not a ton of people even know about it, but I expect that to change with the article on the front page. It's really only used for the dueling power and Cinderhulk health increase, and you can only steal the enemy gromp if you're on the North side of the map
Yes. stay top lane.
I don't mind.
See you in 4 towers.
