forced to jungle

quizotic·7/3/2016, 4:19:08 AM·1 votes·824 views

so I am still lvling, I normally play support as its what I enjoy (and I always call it as soon as I load in) however I seem to pretty regularly get kicked out of the role by people auto locking and 9 times out of 10 I get stuck filling the jungle role which I suck at. I normally tell my team this in champ select (hey I suck at jungle) I just wanted to know, is there a decent yay to practice?

I've tried practicing clears in private games (I still fall behind in randoms though), but when it comes to ganks and such I just really suck at it and private games really don't allow me to practice ganks.

I also tried player vs AI but with half a team of bots (always at least 2-3 on my team) I normally have to go into a lane to prevent the AI from steamrolling us by pushing a single lane.

if it helps at all, I've given Evelynn a try but she was so squishy and hard to clear on that I switched to Aatrox as of right now they're the only two junglers I have unlocked and can regularly play/practice. I have been looking into getting Trundle or Tryndamere for jungle and top if I ever get thrown into it, opinions?

sorry if I seem to be rambling on, I just really hate feeling like dead weight on my team and want to improve somehow.

Your level 28 don't you have access to draft mode? Just play that instead.

Actually in normal's there are a lot more supports. they are probably playing with friends.

I'd suggest learning to jungle, there are plenty of supportive junglers, it is a different skill set but there are things in common.

Jungle is a macro role, with map awareness and objectives at it's core.

Try some junglers like Nautilus and other tank junglers Maokai, Chogath ,Sejuani, Amumu. They bring a huge amounts of CC to a fight. There are some mage junglers Fiddlesticks and AurelionSol. they are a bit odd but quite powerful. If you are very new to jungling Nunu is a very good supportive jungler that you basically can't screw up. If you want a challenge or perhaps some fun Lulu, Karma, Morgana can all be jungled.

Oh and Kayle is very good although she is a carry jungler.

Try Aurelion sol. I'm a pretty average jg, and i suck at ganking, but Sol makes that a bit easier, since he can fly in from any angle.
