Is it just me or does EVERYONE misunderstand the meaning of jungling when playing a normal game.

even in ranked i see people going in their fixated route. like they are playing another game against the creeps.

yeah people mid-high elo knows what jungling is. but the purpose still remains clouded to many.

in higher elo only by having a jungler you can force your opponent into playing more defensivly. you playing ashe while that enemy shaco is in the jungle. would you rather be near your tower or the other team's?

alot of people see jungling as killing the npcs in the jungle. but higher up, that position is finning more than just the exp advantage. keeping people in check, punishing those who overextend, making so that annoying mid enemy doesn't get the advantage. all this can the jungler do. but most people just wanna run around killing creeps all their early game instead of helping.

Najs att se svenskar btw.

A lot of it depends on the potency of the jungler. Warwick is actually a really poor ganker before he hits six, while Shaco can hit like a truck at level 2-3.

A problem i see most of the time with junglers at low ELO or normal games is that they don't gank after their jungle. They just base and start laning. Another thing is that they always have one route. If someone disturbs that route their jungle is screwed and they either quit or just lane. At higher ELO a jungler like Shaco would always start at red. If it gets disturbed he transitions to blue. Also they don't use their brains. For example; If i'm playing Shaco and i see the enemy team has an Amumu jungling i was always go and check his jungle because i know he is a weak jungler and counter jungle him.
