Ever since the new update, there has been a lot of early jungle invasions because the minions deal quite a lot of damage. There are players who rush to the minions near the jungle shop. However, that is now considered a risky move because you never know if your opponents will invade you.

There was a time when I was Krul and my supporter was Arden. He wanted to go to the jungle shop minions. As we arrived there, my opponents (Ringo, Koshka and Fortress) killed both us. Our laner (Vox) tried to come down, but was too late.

It happened again when my supporter was attacking the two minions near the lane miner. All three opponents arrived out of nowhere.

Just be careful the next time your supporter tells you to take the jungle shop minions first. Tell your laner to come with you. If no opponent shows up, then proceed back to the lane. Or you guys can invade if you want to.

IF you don't see your opponent laner in the lane, then by all means take it as a sign that they're planning an invasion.
