If I gank top, who is like I said 50 farm behind and down kills, what should I do? If I give him the farm, I run the risk of him taking a bunch of gold and being useless late game anyway (yay double Zeal Xin), or I can take it, knowing that I'm already 3-0-4 and can use that gold to push the advantage more. | ||

(Also I 1v2 things on him all the time. Hilarity ensues.) Also, that statement is incorrect in itself. If I steal all the farm from top, become an unkillable machine on Nautilus, and my Vayne is going even (keeping up with farm, not down kills), I can "carry" the game by peeling hardcore off of her and locking down targets to kill, even if my top is more or less out of the game. | ||

But on the other hand, I've been personally screwed over by my jungler taking my farm in a way that I was over 2 levels behind my lane opponent when I was otherwise 0-1 and even CS and it snowballed into me going 1-5 because when you're 5 and riven is 7, she can dive you pretty much whenever her ult is up. | ||

One time I had a jungle gank my lane (bot) like 4 times, but e got all the kills, where as when fights would happen te enemy AD got 3-4 kills. This allowed him a whole BF sword up on me and lead to me losing stability in lane and us struggling in mid game team fights. I wish some junglers had a better read on when to hand of kills and when to pick them up. I apologize when I take early game kills, I think most junglers try to make sure the carries get the killing blow. You can't help it sometimes (Naut anchor getting kill to stop a running enemy, Skarner Q killing to keep the slow up, Red tick on anyone), but most junglers are just CC bots and tanks early game anyway, so a competent AD or mid should consistently put the damage out to guarantee the kill. The jungler should be careful, but the laner should also be watchful imo. | ||

If I die top lane and a jungler comes by to shove my lane and take my cs, he's pretty much guaranteed my next death. Please tell me you';re not one of those junglers. | ||

Yes, we're under the assumption that said solo laner is already below 50% of his opponents gold and basically can't even go into lane anymore.

Then you're running into the issue where your jungler isn't 100% on the dynamic of WHEN to shove top lane. If the wave is reset middle, or pushing towards their tower already, it's a good time to shove it back to their tower and let the tower reset the wave again. If the wave is pushing towards YOUR tower it's best to leave it alone and let your solo lane farm under tower UNLESS the enemy is already so far ahead that your tower is inconsequential to them killing you. | ||

We're not talking about the guy in the hard lane, or who gets camped and is slightly behind. You help that guy, you get him back to useful state. I'm talking about the solo queue top laner who dives a Trynd with his ult up, or overextends when there's a Noct jungle, or the mid who pushes for no reason and wanders into the enemy jungle and dies. Help people who are having a bad game, compensate for shitty players by taking their farm/buffs and being useful with it. | ||

Please tell me you';re not one of those junglers. *cough* Have skillshots been... tempermental for anyone else lately? I can never tell if I'm going to hit my skills with Lux; sometimes the bind/laser goes straight through them, other times it hits on a clear miss. I think the hitbox might have shifted or something. | ||

I had a game with LPractice yesterday where I was TF against Lux mid, and anyone in TeamSpeak could probably vouch for the amount of times I said "WTF that was nowhere near me!" in reference to Lux Qs The laser bug has been around for a while though, even direct hits sometimes bug out. | ||
