I've mained support for a full season, now I want to JG this preseason

Rabbi of Doom··1 votes·513 views

I'm interested in learning to jungle during the preseason to increase my ability to affect the games I play in. I'm interested in a couple junglers: Sejuani, Vi, and Pantheon, but am open to hearing different suggestions, so I turn to the community. I'd like to be able to get dirty and do some fighting, survive and get kills and go on. Vi seems very good for this, are there others?

Sounds like you want some gankers. Vi, Pantheon, and Rengar all have good pre 6 gank potential.

By your preference you would likely enjoy Gragas Jax JarvanIV as well

I would recommend the following champions for jungling in lower ELOs: Amumu Volibear XinZhao

High durability and damage, reliable CC, good ganks and scaling, simple to play.

As a jungler who seems of like mind, don't under estimate a Diana jungle, with her W she can toe to toe fighter, dive with R and "brush check" with Q.

Vi is my favorite jungler. And she will be the first I hit mastery 7 on. She has a very solid first clear that isn't too harsh and her ganks pre 6 are very strong, and post 6 are an almost guaranteed kill.

Sejuani is a classic tank jungler. Vi and Pantheon are divers. Sejuani does less damage but will bring more CC to the team. Vi and Panth both have CC but deal large amounts of damage and are not true tanks. if that's the kind of style you are looking for:

RekSai Rek'Sai: she has kind of become a knock up bot yes, but she does solid damage and is tanky and has great initiation and global pressence Olaf Olaf: True damage on his E, a slow on Q, An ult that makes him immune to CC. Olaf gets in, rushes down enemies for kills and gets out. He has no ahrd CC though, so he is not the best choice if your team has no hard cc Zac Zac has great engage with His E which lets him come from odd angles. He also has a great amount of CC and does respectable damage

There are plenty of junglers out there. Find one you like and from there you can branch out and play others similar to them.

Diana was my first 6 and Vi was my first 7 :D

When behind, all else fails become a meat shield build titanic. Always works :D

Satisfaction guaranteed!

But yeah, that's really the only way to play Rek'sai these days sadly. But it is a valid strategy.
