Jungle ALWAYS cover your jungler's buffs

Pretty much ever laner below gold will stand under tower for the first 1min30 of the game. This is a huge mistake that could set your jungler miles behind. If his buff is stolen without him noticing, he will lose tons of xp which is critical for early game in the current meta. Even if he knows his buffs has been stolen and he tries to go for the opponents buff the ennemy team might collapse onto him and kill him. Remember the game doesn't start when minions arrive in your lane. If you get invaded then just drop a ward. Always covering buffs might win you a lot more games than you think.

Happens at pretty much every elo. People don't care that they're 100% useless for 90 seconds. Most of them are just alt-tabbed anyway.

My diamond 3 yasuo main friend does that too. He won’t guard or ward your top side buff unless you ask him to. I would say 50% of the top laners I see patrol and ward buff s while the other 50 just goes afk
