Anhur's section in the Insane Jungle Guide is complete. Finally. Honestly, I wish someone would actually try one of the listed gods and give feedback.

My Sun Wukong guide has been updated with the addition of a ganking and roaming/rotating section, though the latter isn't pretty.



Now for the rant.

Okay, I think I can say with a certain amount of confidence that my guides are pretty good. But I really question sometimes, what constitutes an upvote and what makes a downvote.

The match I deserted had TWO other junglers. Two. What are the odds?



tl;dr version: For the love of God/Gods/Whatever, look in your damn lobby chat! I don't care if you're on Skype or in a party, you shouldn't force people to go through 40 minutes of ****ing hell! Even if you decide to be a **** and take the jungle …
