What are you supposed to do if you're getting 1v2 in your jg before your 2nd blue is even up

Like seriously, then I get blamed for feeding when I leave my blue there and go for wolves and a frikking nidalee support and shaco jg are waiting for me there and taking all the camps.

Meanwhile the enemy "adc" was ekko against vayne + thresh and he got free farm.

I can't even make this crap up. Do I go to their blue instead???

I literally spend 15 minutes trying to secure my own camps and minor ganking. You would think we would easily have bot turret after 10 mins of this shenanigans in my jungle but nope.

I've found that getting early counter jungled is really only "countered" with both vision and smart teammates. The fact that Ekko could 1v2 free farm means you lacked one of those components. If this ever happens again I'd say the safe thing to do is keep in mind they'll probably try it again, buy wards for your jg so you'll know it when it happens, and try to counter jungle when you see the enemy jg either in your jg or on the other side of the map (time spent ganking is time not spent farming, so that could hurt them in the long run).

If they are in your jungle to the point the support or mid is joining in on it and your team doesnt respond(either with pushing the missing lane or coming to help) all you can do is try to take some enemy camps and gank one of the other lanes.

What should happen in that case is either:

  1. mid and support should collapse on them with you 3v2 for an easy double.

or

  1. farm as best you can without dying while bot pushes. Ward up your jungle and stay close enough that you can help if the enemies in your jungle both try to gank.

or

  1. go bot and totally zone out their ADC 3v1 until you take the tower or they come back to stop you. If they don't stop you - good job, now their ADC is massively behind in XP and gold.

Which option is preferred depends on the champs involved. For example, collapsing on Shaco + Nid is probably a waste of time, they'll just run away and waste your time.
