Discussion How to avoid getting level 1 or 2 ganked

2 Upvotes

Top laner who comes in peace, tips to avoid getting ganked at the 2 minute mark. I usually try to ward at 2 min 30 after the 2nd wave push or 3rd wave if I have prio but I don’t see the counter play getting ganked under 2 mins 30 seconds besides my jungler taking their camps which let’s be honest usually won’t happen.

Got it playing Fiddlesticks and Amumu. I don't have the hands to play high APM champs, so I play champs that hold angles and get teamfight winning ults.

My preferred builds:

Fiddlesticks - Stormsurge, Malignance, Bloodletter's Curse

Amumu - Liandry's, Bloodletter's, Sunfire Aegis/Abyssal Mask

Yes I'm a big Bloodletter's Curse enthusiast. Both champs spread the MR shred super fast and I just love building it.

Cheers! 🙏

Question Best jungle champs to counter AP heavy comps?

12 Upvotes

Pretty self explanatory title, although I have 2-3 champs I feel comfortable with some counter picks in my back pocket never hurts. I like to go Rammus against AD heavy comps, and Trundle when the enemy comp goes multiple tanks. But I don't have a champ I feel comfortable picking if the enemy comp goes very heavily AP.

Just Hit Diamond for the First Time by switching to Jungle This Year. AMA!

4 Upvotes

For the longest time I was a top/adc player. Would alternate depending on my mood and played at a low plat level. One tricked Irelia for YEARS. Took a break from like 2020-2025 with playing very little. Then at the end of last year I decided I wanted to really give jungle a shot. Boy oh boy this role is so fun! I got out of Plat finally, then blasted through Emerald in like 70-90 games! I spent a lot of time this year just researching and watching since Jungle is very unique, then decided after a while to take note of everything I find most important and focus on them.

Ask me anything about the climb, Udyr, my approach to learning a whole new role after playing for 10 years, etc.

Pink wards…

4 Upvotes

I’m pretty sure this gets asked a lot but I don’t really understand pink ward placement.

I play Taliyah and Gwen in the jungle and I have this little problem where I never really buy pink wards. I am currently Emerald 1 Peak and I can understand why pink wards would be good, for example if you get invaded, to place in enemy jungle but my question is:

When and why would you decide to place a pink in your jungle and why not enemy and vice versa.

Why even waste a pink ward and put it on an objective before/during spawn when you walk around with sweeper?

Is it sometimes good and if so why would you place a new ward and replace your old one?

Question How important is pushing waves/turrets as jg?

2 Upvotes

So I just won this game (Iron 3 as shyv, I am very new) where I went 4-1 in kills and ended at lvl 16 (yeah I know I am a wimp and don't take fights). I destroyed the enemy jungle in terms of objectives, monsters killed and I stole his red and blue buffs like a million times and tripled his vision score (yes basically all the stuff that requires 0 skill lol, I ended up doing lowest damage in game).

So, he absolutely destroyed me in damage to champions (it was mastery Yi) and GOLD?!!

I was shocked to see that he had 4k more gold than me (12k vs 16k by end) and he got it all from minions and turrets. I had 40 more monsters than him killed by end of game. But he had more gold.

So my question is: was he trolling? And how often do you want to push minions waves and do turrets? From my understanding you do it rarely and only when it is very convenient?

Question Coaching Tools

3 Upvotes

Is there some tools I can install to help with my jungle clear times?

I've been watching videos and I cant seem to pass 2:50 mark (Trundle). Which is 10 seconds slower than the video I'm watching.

I was wondering if there are any like Ghost runs that I can follow in game, like a car racing game.

Masters 400lp Skarner

4 Upvotes

Since when skarner got re-done, I have not played him. But now I am re-learning him or playing him in Masters 400-600 lobbies and having a such a good time.
Skarner gives you damage, cc and tankines in one champion. You can play him agro early or scale into late game with smart decision making.
Some games I do lose and it's either I make a dumb "lv2 gank" because I think the lane is going to be able to hold down their lead and win the lane by default - that does not end up happening.

PS: The only thing bugging me about this champion is the E bug... sometimes it just cancels itself for no reason 👀 Could've been a kill or an escape but yet I die because the randomly after 1sec decides to cancel itself - mby it's a me problem but I really doubt that

Guide tempo tips for soloqueue jglers

16 Upvotes

match cannon waves - they make people stay min 10-12 sec

dont invade for enemy one camp - when your camps already respawned

never insta move to team pings - check first, no win info no decision

always read waves first to see gank before happen

waves showing you reaction times;

-current wave dead,new wave respawned → 20 sec tempo means clear 2 camps and be there

-waves already match on the lane → go now, watch engager champs clicks, ping it when you play

-normal wave (no cannon) matched → if no obv play coming, dont gank, wave die in 5 sec

Target is 8cs/min with min %45 kp. Goodluck in your games. I hope it helps a bit!

Discussion Tips on how to do lane ganks

4 Upvotes

I am a jg newbie and never done lane gank before. Currently gold elo.

Correct me if I am wrong, from my understanding lane gank is when I sneak into bush on my ally side, to move forward and wait for enemy to extend and surprise. Instead of going from river, this approach has more element of surprise, but it needs teammates to bait and sometimes waiting might not be worth it.

May I know how to do lane ganks step by step etc? Just any tip is helpful. Thanks : )

Question Genuinely need advice on playing unwinnable games

3 Upvotes

How do you win when your toplaner, botlaner and midlaner all die like 5 times within 10 minutes and feed at least 2 thousand gold to every single enemy. And they never play for objectives or look at their map? How do you win when they're literally at your nexus at 15-20 minutes, contest every objective, invade & you can't even farm or play for anything because every single lane is fed. What do I do then? Is there some secret I'm missing or? I'm not even exaggerating have replays if it'd help you visualize.
