Intro

Bot lane is not dependant on support and ADC taking kills. Since S3, junglers have played a huge role in the meta and is propably the best role to carry games at the moment. I'm going to talk and advice little of junglers presence in bot lane and how do you avoid getting ganked or how your lane gets more effective ganks. Read further for ward examples also, but let's first learn quickly about predirecting jungler ganks.

Predirecting ganks

1. Over-aggression
2. Sudden trades/ unfavored initiation

So can you ?
- The answer is yes.

You indeed CAN carry bad ADC, within limits of course.
You can prevent ranked losses, because of bad ADC overall for not forcing him/her there, if she/he doesn't feel comfortable there and says so. You can't teach him how to ADC in 1 game, but you can make the experience much better for everyone.
