I generally like playing with friends and we are really open to anyone inviting their other friends to play. However, recently, when I've played with friends of friends, they've dragged the team down significantly. Not initiating, chasing when they shouldn't going the "wrong way," over-extending.

Hell, most of them are 30s and definitely have more games than me, but I swear, doing a 5 man premade with these friends of friends is just asking for another loss on my record.



Stop caring about your record, if it's fun to play with them play with them - if it's not, don't.

I wanted to ask you guys if this would be viable in early game:

As a jungler, instead of wearing a sad face after realizing that top, mid, or bot is warded, why not spend a bit of time denying the opponent (maybe for 1 wave)? Since the lane is pushed on your side when you decided to gank, I don't see why more junglers don't zone out their opponents more often.

Not only that, but this gives the jungler some needed exp to reach lvl 6 quickly for a stronger gank in the near future.

Since you're sharing exp with the respective laner, yeah he may become underleveled slightly, but zoning out the opponent only compensates the sharing of exp.

Thoughts?

EDIT: I just had another idea: why not use the 1 wave for the jungler to last hit while the laner zones out the opponent? This would give the jungler a small incentive to gank more. His moving around the river more would better than moving around less.

Think you said it yourself. You're sharing the xp but zoning the solo laner. The lvl difference may not be big though, but you gave that person a solo lane so he could gain lvl's faster than anyone else. And zoning for 1 wave isn't gonna do much if you both share the exp gained.

How about instead doing the ultimate anti-ward strategy: Going around the ward.

For instance, wait for the top lane to push to enemy tower, come from your teams turret and go to the brush. Wait for opponent to push the wave forward, free kill.

Why not just buy an oracles? Kill wards, come back 5 minutes later from wolves/wraiths/small golems, and gank again.

This. Teamwise Oracles pays for itself after you kill 4 wards (you gain 25g for killing a ward and enemies lose 75g for losing a ward) and warding top, mid and bot = 4 wards.

I've seen that in competitive play as well as in some of my games. But I can tell you that the risk involved (being cv'ed or the opponent laner being able to control his lane well - the latter is fairly easy to do with most champioins btw) for the time you waste AND stealing some of your lane's exp is greater than the potential kill you may get.

My idea is to compensate the time lost from ganking while lessening any risk.

Let's say it was your first time ganking, and you didn't prepare an oracle. Of course after doing the tactic that I shared, the jungler could get an oracle for future ganks.

Every account that was created before 10 jan 2010 was given corki and the UFO skin for free. My account on NA is older and I already got one of the closed beta skins (King Rammus) but I didn't get the UFO Corki for some reason. I made a thread and a wrenchman told me to open a ticket for it. -> UFO corki on my account

Now I just need to learn how to play him.
