Champions you wish you could play in the Jungle.

There's a lot of champions in League of Legends, of the 150 champions in league about 30 of them have their Primary role as Jungle and about 10 more CAN jungle but it's not their most played position.

I wish i could play more champions in the jungle, even of those 40 champions i really only have fun playing one of them, the majority of jungle champions are Fighter's or Tank's and in this meta Tank's don't really exist in the jungle, fighter's dominate it right now as they have quite awhile. Hell even tanky blob boi Zac takes Conqueror now.

If i could reliably play Ahri, Katarina, Akali or Neeko in the jungle(My other 4 most played champions) i would, sure i tested it and none of them have a bad clear but let's be real if i go Ahri Jungle i'm gonna get flamed. I guess the bright side is that with Karthus, Brand, Syndra and Zyra taking a firmer step into the jungle in other regions it's possible one day that i'll be able to use my entire champion pool while also getting to play my favorite champions.

This is where i ask you, what champions do you wish you could play in the jungle? My final three are Ahri, Neeko(I have actually a lot) and Akali.

Side Note: If there were a way to prevent Fighter and Invade focused jungler's from getting to Mage, Assassin and Low Health Clearing champions in the jungle i think we'd see a lot more of them.

Kaisa I had my best Kaisa games in the JG but then they nerfed her and now I can't play her there anymore.

You'd think any of these champions would be a cool jungler but none of them really can.

Pyke It's not impossible, but the solo lane nerf back then also nerfed his jungle. His lack of waveclear and sustain make him playing in the jungle really hard and to some extend not enjoyable, at least the early game. You have to rush item 3077 to even have some kind of waveclear. I'm pretty sure my other most played champions (Swain, Thresh, Jhin) are pretty bad in that role in particular, one of my friends tried once Swain Jng and It didn't go well lmao...
