Ask your laner to trade before you gank . It will probably burn the laner ' s escape e . g . Zed W and the laner will be less suspicious of a gank . That is , if your laner is too passive before you gank , then goes agro , the enemy should apprehend your gank . If one of your side lane is reallly pushed and the wave is about to crash in the tower , consider a lane gank . Make sure you are not seen he minions . The wave should counter push after hitting the tower and give you a gank opportunity . Also don ' t hesitate to tell your laner if you simply are unlucky in your pathing and are behind . Sometimes your camps get stolen and it screw your pathing or the laner you were ready to gank get solo killed . And most of all , trust your own judgment on if you should or should not gank . After all you are the jungler and you know more than your laner what you should do . It ' s common for laners to blame the jungler . It ' s true that your jungler can turn a lane but most of the time it ' s simply easier to blame someone else for your mistakes .
