How does this work?
How long am I supposed to spend in one lane and what not?
I got harassed about how I was doing a terrible job rotating.. However we won.

Yes I recently posted about taking harassment lightly, but maybe I was doing a bad job.. Idk.
Maybe i did though.
I just dont know how it actually works out too much

yeah this is a bit hard to explain but jungling depends on a game.

depending on how much camps there are up or if you only want a bit of pressure decides how long you stay in a lane. and when counter ganking the enemy can also influence this. The onyl thing I can recommend is look at some people who main jungle and tell you why they do this or how they recognize something. (this is what I did for LoL to refine my jungling which is still bad in most cases)

The thing about jungle is there isn't really a unified strategy aside from "keep moving." You can always watch pro games to see what they do if you're unsure of what you're supposed to be doing.

I would watch Weak3n on YouTube (is that how you spell it?). I find that his small commentary while playing helps out a bit.

the commentary is one of the biggest [part about people who are good in jungling. I'm going to recommend watching Stonewall too only he is a LoL player it can help out a bit (only don't look at item choices more on his ganking commentary)

Reau, you need to jungle with your heart ! Its like a flower , if the fire gets too close to 1 of the petals, help them ! If a petal wants to grow ( take a tower/the lead by killing a enemy) then help it.


*Disclaimer : to achieve your goal follow the tips I gave you, Check the map each 2 seconds and grow its size ! Mine occupies 40% of the right side of the screen

Alright, as a general tip I would say you should spend the shortest amount of time in the lane as possible. Probably staying for maybe 30-60 seconds at most but you should be traversing the lane and not hogging it (Don't do this to the solo laner....He'll hate you for eternity) Apart from that, just rotate to lanes when you see it's needed. It comes down to common sense and thinking which only you can do.

unless you are asked to hold that lane (so the money and exp isn't lost while laner x died)

and after that if a gank failed you want to go back to the jungle fast (unless a rotation popped out)
if a gank is successful you want to help push the wave under the tower (enemy losing more exp and gold) and then go back to the jungle

(and because assassins mostly burst people the amount of time sods gave you is pretty accurate (the 60 is long though)

Alright that sounds good, but I'm thrown off from my experiences. When I jungle I see the enemy jungler in another lane for quite an amount of time. That causes me to sit in that same lane to help out, what's usually the solo or mid lane, for as long as he's in. This usually always happens especially against Mercs.

Another situation I've been in several times is when more than 1 lane is getting pushed in. Last night I no **** had the solo and duo lane getting pushed or flat out getting killed.

Now I used to solo lane quite a bit so that being said, if I know there's a bad matchup in said lane, let's say Scylla vs Eset, should I attend to that lane a bit more?

Well whilst you could attend to the lane and help push them out and earn a bit more, you should never spend that much time in that lane. Maybe one wave and some poking before heading back to the jungle.
An important thing to note is that if your mid doesn't mind and can distract both the mid and the jungler for long enough is to go into their part of the jungle and take a back camp or both from them (Even better if you're a Loki is too cheekily remove a wave using decoy and giving your mid laner a full wave to attack with.
But always...ALWAYS punish the jungler if he decides to get greedy, even if it means damaging them enough to force them to back which is common with Thor players as Anvil of Dawn has decent range to easily dunk someone with.
As usual you should attend the lanes when you can, if the laner dies feel free to take the lane for a while until they come back and once they return go do back camps or whatever buffs are up.
