Very true, when loosing lanes, I never do a traditional surprise-from-the-side gank. It is almost guaranteed failure in terms of positioning since it means going behind enemy minion lines with a weak ally into the enemy. I always go for either a forward or a secret lane-bush gank since otherwise, the ally wouldn't be in a position to react and it scares the enemy more so than a side gank. I mean, if the situation has gone abnormal, why use normal tactics?

In any case, it does get to a point sometimes when it is too much to even gank at all, which I'd say is around a 5 kill deficit. At that point, the losing lane should really just regroup since pairing someone 5 deaths against an enemy with 5 kills is never a good idea.
