How can I go about carrying or at least winning a 4v5 as a jungler

This isn't a qq about 4v5, I just wanted advice from someone better than me (I'm Bronze 1) on how I can go about winning a 4v5 or a game with a troll/intentional feeder.

What junglers do you play? Currently I play Nocturne, Kha'Zix, Pantheon, some Karthus, Hecarim, Diana, more recently Irelia, J4, Lee Sin, I tried Renekton but his clears were pretty bad and ganks too, not doing that again, I recently got Shaco but I seem to not really do anything late game, Maokai, Rammus, Nunu, but those 3 I can't really carry on I feel unless one of my lanes does well, then I usually just camp them until they are rofl stomping the enemy and then I help others. I also own but don't really play jungle much Jax, Nautilus (own him but never played, need to still try out), Master Yi, Udyr, Zac, Xin Zhao, Vi, Gnar, Cho'Gath, Fiddlesticks, Amumu (only own because he is 450, absolutely hate the champion, refuse to play him), Aatrox, and Evelynn.

Again, those are just all of the champion I own that I would consider capable of jungling, but I still own a decent amount of champions that aren't really junglers and am willing to buy any champion.

Wow you own more junglers than I do champions, lol.

Anyways, I think you got it in your post, figure out who is your best player/their worst and camp that Lane until he is roflstomping his Lane.

It's also ideal to get your support to switch to the empty Lane and have your adc go solo Lane if possible. Sometimes it isn't of course (say Taric support when your mid disappears or Morgana support when your top leaves) and in those cases you should farm your jungle predominantly and only cover the lane when it's pushed to tower (so you get your normal jungle xp and all of the lane xp is a fast bonus since the tower helps you clear it, if you can last hit under tower even better. I find this works amazingly with hecarim since he can clear a wave REALLY fast and get back to jungling).

Finally, remember you're not trying to win 100% or even 50% of your 4v5s. These are lost Games and each one you win is a loss turned in to a win. If you can win even 5-10% you're doing excellently.

Try and split if you're down men. You want to try and pull 2-3, and get the 3 men you have up to get a 3v3 or 3v2. Splitpushing messes with teams, and makes most games at lower MMRs much simpler to win.
