I think doing a camp inbetween is better. You get last buff for longer.

I mean, unless red is critical for you to farm wolves.

what's the point of going straight to the second buffcamp though if you won't hit lvl 3 with it.

You won't hit level 3 off of it so I'm not sure if it's that superior.

^ I'm not talking about killing people, I built full tank because I had to, Riven was bad as heck but Jinx was getting a bunch of kills so I wanted to be able to do my job. When I noticed that I couldn't even zone her because she'd drop half my HP by herself if she hit zap into auto-chompers while my ult was down, and that with 200+ armour when she had IE/PD/LW and her steroid, I wasn't going to build more damage.

We lost in the end because we made bad calls during fights (we had Ezreal, Elise and Nidalee so going in early wasn't a good idea, but Thresh dived in at their last inhib tower as soon as he hooked Jinx, so we couldn't finish the game, and later Elise dc'd during a fight over nashor so the 4v5 sealed the deal), doesn't mean Riven wasn't bad as heck (his decision path in fights was "I'm alone -> burn all dashes in a row to run ; at least an ally in range -> burn all dashes in a row on Olaf", not even making it up), or that Jinx didn't somehow shred my 9200 physical EHP post-LW at that time (around 6100 he did by himself though) in less than 10s and without his ult.


There is a thread for this...

Putting pressure on early if you want to do a really fast gank. Part below was me misreading.

Putting the camp on CD. More importantly, allows you to hit level 3 slightly faster because you don't have to double back to do a camp.

Give your poor CPU a rest and just consider that you can draw Riot a picture to make up for any ~40 RP gap.

What I've seen is, for example if you start blue buff, and you contest at their red buff immediately after your buff. So the enemy jungler who did the small camp in between is worse off than you because they did small camp; but still at level 2 with you.

It's pretty fucking cheezy, but you'd be surprised how well it works.

Also, another thing you can do is grab level 2 off both buffs, gank or pressure a lane, use lane xp to get to 3.

It's only really exploitable if you invade early and place ward in their buff to see if they're starting there. (usually you can trinket it, and walk out).

You only need to look at the top and bot lane's presence to know which buff they start first.

you'd be surprised how many times sidelanes don't help with buff control, just for lane advantage push.

But in that case you'll see both lanes show up, so you have big advantage.
You can just finish blue, do wolf, and then go invade and still make it on time.
If the other jungler even waits until last minute to smite blue then go straight to red buff, you will even have smite advantage.

0. Figure that one out.

Seriously though, find me a way to get the KT icon and then hit 0.



How much is that icon?

250 I think.

3200 for both Regions all icons,
1600 for 1 region 8 Icons
250rp for 1 icon.

Buying the bundle obviously worth it in terms of total price (400rp+ if you buy each icon individually).

best way:
use 250rp this spring and get the only icon that matters (Digs)

I know you aren't the business manager, but you should suggest that Riot sell Headshots of your team as icons. I want to know how many people would buy a QTPie headshot so they could look at him during loading (or force opponents to look at him, whichever).
