jungleing woes:
So I was playing a smurf match with some friends of mine and I picked rammus because, I know hes a good ganker for jungleing and it seemed like a good idea. I go with my WW jungle pattern and find a: he doesnt keep his health up like ww and b: hes not nearly as fast with the kills (also probably partly due to it being on a lvl 1 smurf).
I say in chat "b'ing and ganking top" as I come in, I ping it twice, once on the champ, and once on myself to show it was me and im coming. I get into the cross bush and find ww was waiting in it for a gank. I ping 3 times as I fight off this ww (I was winning btw) as I watch, about a second into my fight, the Kat who was solo top begin to b with 3/4th hp. So I ping frantically only to watch her ignore me completely. I get away with 1 bar after the rammus (their solo top) comes down and beats on me. They tower dive me, getting me killed, but getting me a kill on rammus. Fortunately, mid wasnt deaf like top and had decided to come top due to the mass pings and picked up WW.
Then, later that game, I go to gank bot, where both of my friends sitting in the other room are playing. For some reason, I can hear them fine, but me yelling doesnt even get their attention. I was just finishing blue as I saw ryze show up in my ward I placed for them and dragon (in between dragon and bottom bush). So, I ping it like 3 times and start yelling "ryze is coming! get into position to gank ryze! get ready! ryze incoming!!!" only to watch them push bottoms lane right onto turret. as I power ball directly into ryze as he proceeds to wreck my face because he was mid and I was still only level 5 (I had just gotten it from blue). I got away with like 2 bars though (powerball is awesome).
This all happened within the first like 7 minutes and the other teams WW jungle was 7 when I had just hit 5 -.-
Sometimes, jungleing is awesome, but sometimes people are to busy blasting music to hear pings...
