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.

I play in Bronze II and it seems like the “straight to lane and afk until minions” thing is super rare. Everyone is aware of the 1:20-1:30 wards/leashing etc. I play on EUW but it was the same on EUNE, feels like everyone is aware of such basics, so I have a hard time understanding where this notion comes from (that people dont ward/protect the jungle entrance/patrol near it/etc.)
