Normal double pulling: 10 medium camps in 6 minutes. Average 2010 XP, 1180 gold. Rubick jungle: 5 hard camps and 4 easy camps in 6 minutes. Average 1644 XP, 951.5 gold. Not to mention that jungle Rubick requires you to put a useless ward on the inner high ground, buy Basi, and gets significantly slowed down if you have a Furbolg camp. Please learn to double pull properly, as it's useful far more often than the Rubick jungle trick. | ||

You can do this and get this exp on two heroes and end up with a solo laner bot too. | ||

Nothing stops their hard laner from stealing your double pulls then. Your carry can't leave tower because every enemy creep wave pushes into tower, and your support doing the Rubick pull is too far to come stop their hard laner. So their hard laner ends up screwing up your double pulls and stealing a large chunk of the pull XP. Even in the 3v1 case, it's not better than having both supports securing the normal double pull/zoning their hard laner. Especially since if you have enough damage, the normal double pull can triple pull to the hard camp. | ||

Funny how he will be sponsored by LGD but seems to play lots more games with iG.YYF than anyone else. Also funny is how Tongfu players always end up against him, oh man high queue chinese server must suck. | ||

i think the taobao sponsor for LGD is making a heavy investment to contest iG's dominance. but it'll be hard to make another superteam that rivals iG at the present time. | ||

Ye well SEA very high queue is much the same, if you muck about with a 5stack of friends you are going to get stomped. The trick is to create "smurfs" for mucking about. I know the thought of smurfs makes some people cringe but if you just click medium and completely stomp the first 1-2 games you get to a reasonable level of play really fast. | ||

It wasn't completely friendly. ZSMJ was effectively forced to retire. | ||

The beginnings are not even close besides the rhythm. | ||
