Since masters has a skill level much higher than all lower divisions we can assume players who make correct decisions will be in that elo
Therefore we can assume most mid giftings will be correct outside of some freak statistical anomaly
the quantitative measure is irrelevant because it depends on the situation and meta with katarina mid are going to give different measures than metas with orianna mids

Well you can assume that over a large number of games, because everyone is doing the correct thing most of the time, you can arrive at a rate that's close to a theoretical ideal, to which gifting rates in other elos/divisions/regions can be compared.

It's not ironic at all. I generally think jungler shouldn't take blue BUT if your mid laner is doing blue buff on his own (lik in the opposite situation of taking red and drive by smite) then you should let him have it because of the large investment unless he's like katarina and trolling


I don't understand the difference between entitled and 'entitled' unless you're just saying it in a mocking way the second time.

If Ori is 0/5 she still probably deserves Blue in general unless she is walking into tower or something IMO.

I'm incapacitated, so I name Scip my champion for this trial by combat.

And yeah that poll is super biased because of the use of the word entitled. You can be entitled to make the wrong decision, you are still entitled to it.

A 0/5 mid laner is very likely to die 1v1 or by ANY gank or roam because of how little damage potential she has also going to feed the enemy 5-0 mid laner blue buff
meanwhile what value does she get if she doesn't feed it? Maybe more creep score but she's going to get zoned anyway, you can most likely get a much higher value as a jungler

No, I do not have an empirical rate. I could tell you that the rules I listed above are in at least 50% of the cases applied in all games I've played so far, which is definitely closer to the ideal than the much broader generalization than giving blue to middle whenever he asks for it.

Scip is playing a specific subset of champions which is going to skew the data anyway
for example eve and olaf are pretty mana hungry because of spell spam

then why aer you asking for low sample size data which can't be compared to any significant sample size data unless you survey like 100 players over 100 games each from all 4 regions with a good spread of elo and even then its weak

players are going to be either giving blue too much or too little so its going to vary from jungler to jungler

Assuming Scip doesn't jungle every game we can normalize it with what he observes when he's not playing jungle.

I remember what at least half the junglers in my games do, that's what my data is partially based off of. Granted it's a very biased sample. I'm just not sure what you're arguing against? That taking into account more specifics leads to better decision making? Or are you making a somewhat unrelated inquiry about just how much blue buff gets given to middle laners?

I do jungle every game.

scip jungles every game and dodges the rest
at any rate is low sample size and by teamcomps its pretty easy to guess that some champs get 90% of 2nd blues and some champs get 0% of 2nd blues

It's an unrelated inquiry that's tangential to the original discussion(s).

Where does Zed fall? You stated earlier Zed should probably get blue, especially later on.

Sounds approximately right. Manaless might occasionally get blue when the jungler doesn't use blue either (Lee Sin, Rek'Sai...) especially when it's Zed mid.

My very general rule is Zed doesn't get 2nd blue but often gets the rest. I'm not sure what general rule other junglers use though to be honest, especially because I haven't seen Zed in ages. But I don't remember seeing him get blue often at all.

obvious soution is give blue to your midlaner, wait till he get killed by enemy midlaner, kill enemy midlaner and voila, you got blue buff and no1 ragequited

It's like a step function once he gets fed and starts split pushing suddenly the energy regen and cdr for escapes with shadows become way more important before that its not that big a deal
