Need advice for starting role jungle / mid

Hey guys,

I've been main support for a long time and want to learn jungle / mid. I understand how the game works objectives wise and my highest rank was gold 2 last season as main support. Right now I do not care about my ELO and I think pre season is best moment to learn.

I mention that I have time to play 2 games daily.

I need advice on the following:

What jungler to start with in the new meta and possibly a good mobafire guide for jungling routes? My experience: I have zero jungler experience. Last time I played was in season 3 before all the reworks...
What mid to start with in the new meta? My experience: I suck at last hitting as main support doesn't train this skill. I've played Ahri on/off with about 40% win rate :/

Thanks :)

Idk about jg, but with mid Annie and Veigar are simple and easy. Annie is easy to last hit with using her q, which will refund her mana if it kills its target. Veigar is Veigar. He is pretty easy and strong. His q is meant to be used for last hitting minions to build up ap. My favorite is Vel'koz. He has good waveclear with his combos, good range, and if you kill a minion with your q itll refund half the mana. His ult also does true damage if you land his passive. Another one that i like personally is Aurelion Sol, but i'm told he is a bit more on the complicated side, though i thought he was pretty simple. He is a bit quarky though with one big weakness, which is anything with a stun, dash, flash or gap closer.

I personally find Sej really simple and effective in jungle. She has hard cc and gap closer for good early game ganks, if you don't have a opportunity for early gank, then just farm up and you still outscale pretty much all other junglers. You can just youtube a few high elo Sej games and you will probably perform decent on her.

Thanks for input guys. Sejuani sounds good and so does Veigar.

I'm also interested to pick up 1 mid that would have good roam potential and 1 jungler that can do well early game. That way I'd have 4 champs to practice in total in case some get banned.
