So recently i've been using shyvana to boost me out of bronze, it's been really effective for me, once i get out of bronze i'll practice more on other champions but right now the question is - Should i gank more?

Shyvana is a high-objective based champion since she can solo drake at around lvl 4 with a dagger and control ward so i usually tell my team just to not feed massively cause i wont be ganking much, more taking drakes and stuff.

lately my friend suggested that i should gank abit (i have been on some games, not too often though), and its proving rather difficult to sneak a gank in with shyvana, she doesnt have good cc (she only have 1 cc and that is her ult) requiring me to gank a lane that have good cc and sometimes my team doesnt have much cc and i cant really get a gank off.

So when should i gank? should i gank more cause my friend says so? i usually just take drakes and sometimes gank when can, and it works surprisingly well, so in conclusion, should i gank more and why, plus when?

in the past ive already been playing jg long before shyvana, i used to play kayn, a high-ganking jungler (on a different account so if you search on this account you wont find any kayn games), used to gank alot but the flaw was that i didnt get equal cs to the jungle. what should i do to better my gameplay as a jungle

I main shyvanna as well and i see no point in ganking if its not a guaranteed kill. Shyvanna is a champ who is better at power farming so waht I would do is ignore what your team says even if they are feeding and just farm. Once you get bloodrazor and titanic then you can start to 1v5 because you will be able to almost instakill them if they are group up.

Instead of thinking "Should I gank?" you should ask yourself "Is there a reason I shouldn't gank?" if you can't think of anything, gank. The most trouble I have with ally junglers is that they don't gank when they can, for no other reason than they won't. A good jungler is the ultimate win-condition, if you ask me.
