 But I agree a lot of people just don't buy locket since they'd forget to use it anyway. | ||

Nope, because he only has to find farm somehow. I'd say the best way to make farm allocation work one way or the other in soloQ is to have champs on which farm is desirable with good farming capability, and to play aggressive and take towers as soon as you can, convincing the laners thus "freed up" to rotate. Once the outer ring is down, you free up a bunch of the map and since the enemy team will most likely react to you that'll create opportunities to farm big waves in empty lanes. Then, you send your good farmers nuke them and get back to the team. Hecarim's good for this because he's a pretty strong duelist early, with efficient ganks to get your lanes ahead (since you can't kill towers as efficiently than in organised play, snowballing is the best way to create later opportunities) and the ability to AoE farm fast through Q and W. So you just torch your jungle, gank everywhere you get a good opportunity (esp. when ult is available) and focus on killing towers fast. You're super mobile with your E too, so going to a sidelane then back to the team when people are about to group isn't a problem. And then you're farmed. (Same reason Morgana, Swain, etc. kinda suck when teams start grouping super early >_<) | ||

Farm allocation is the polite way of saying it. I've played greedy support before and cleaned up lanes plenty. Certainly you can do it on a jungler. | ||

So please think a little before you just "tax lanes". Junglers that "tax lanes" are the worst kind of scum. Do so much work to come back in lane only to have jungle come and help "push lane" taking all the farm leaving me behind again after all that effort | ||

No buyback in LoL means you can't be greedy at all in lategame. | ||

Would you rather share 10 cs with your jungler to push to the tower, denying your opponent gold and experience plus putting damage in the tower, or take the 10 cs yourself and your opponent don't miss anything significant? | ||
