while i do like the 2-1-2 meta beter since everything was honorcombat before you could even think of ganking.

the jungle meta does have more startegy to it and is if smite wants to become competitive the better meta.

jungle is a very difficult role and very importend. that means a whole lot of will suck at it.
never forget dawngate and never forgive EA. Freia will hunt them for eternity.

My personal favorite meta is the double jungle meta. So all your team levels at near the same rate. Also allows for a lot of early ganks. Only have been in that type of meta three times in conquest. Each time it was an easy win.

The reason why I don't like the 2-1-2 meta is due to the fact that the enemy mage is gonna be higher leveled and higher geared than my teams carry. Mages might get the highest kill count, but carries win games. Also worst come to worse, a sin or warrior could be able to off carry. But I would rather have a carry in a solo lane so they can get their levels and gear asap.

I think the only way to take advantage of someone having a jungler is to push the 2v1 super hard.

Like certain gods that have low mana at the beg of a game or are weaker at the start, I would try to push super hard.

I have noticed thats the only real way to get the edge up.

Think about it this way, even if their jungler comes to help you are slowing down their jungler and stopping him from jungling which in return screws him up and CAN make him get behind a little.

I agree. New meta is terrible because no one can jungle. People think they can do it then end up never ganking and being under leveled.

Maybe it could work if people could jungle, but from my experience I've had 1 good jungler out of maybe 30 games.

2-1-2 with wards counters jungling anyways.

Nothing counters jungling, lol. It's gold and experience inefficient. If anything were to counter jungling, it'd be 1-2-2 beacause you'd at least shut down someone important.

Eh, I guess I"m in the traditional mindset of MOBAs. Additionally, Idk why jungling is considered the 'new' meta...I mean remember back when you could get every one of the buffs at the same time? THAT was ridiculous. I just find the lack of pressure game changing, especially in ranked or tournament play. You know how reassuring it is as a duo laner that you will NEVER be ganked?

But I digress, I've explained myself more in detail earlier, heh.

hahha ya I was thinking the same thing, how is jungling a new meta when its been the meta for a long time now.

At least now its more team orientated, before jungling was just screw you I'm taking all buffs.
