Low Elo vs High Elo Junglers

JungleChopper·5/13/2019, 5:34:39 AM·1 votes·1,387 views

So I have got rammus/nunu/Warwick/sejuani/xin all to M7 (hardly play Warwick/xin now) but I feel like these tank Junglers really require team mates to follow up so my idea is that tank Junglers are better in higher Elo

What I’m seeing works better in low Elo are the jungle carry champs such as lee/Kayn/khazix/udyr

I’ve been having very bad luck recently in normal matches due to people feeding but I keep asking myself is it my fault?

What do you guys think the best approach to low elo jungling is? I try to get a full clear with my tank Junglers using the best path in my opinion (red/birds/wolves/blue/gromp/skuttle then gankable or back) but I feel that I have little impact to lanes until late team fights even when I’m ganking winning lanes throughout the match.

With low elo is it really best to pick jungle carry champions with high dmg? Because I have been getting tired of having to rely on semi decent teammates so that we can get into team fights without so much feeding.

I’m just looking for advice because I’m going to start playing ranked soon and I don’t want to have to rely on teammates nearly as much as when I’m playing tank Junglers such as sejuani

Low elo junglers usually farm most of the time while higher elo junglers spend more time ganking lanes and contesting the enemy jungler. You can easily climb quite high if you constantly play super aggressive and only farm your jungle when you don't really have any other option/nothing better to do. Farming your own jungle is the worst way to spend your time as a jungler in my opinion. Finding the right balance between all the things you could do and identifying your best options is what differentiates really good junglers from okay ones (I'm not good at this).

Tip #1 : Path correctly There is 0 reason to ever gank a lane before scuttle spawns unless its a guaranteedGuranteed free kill

You should clear as many camps as you can before scuttle spawns, Make sure you clear healthy (Not losing too much health) After you finish scuttle you should be full hp ==If the enemy jungler is there at scuttle don't attack the scuttle focus on the enemy jungle while spam pinging for help from your laners. ==If you cant grantee you can win the 1v1 just dance with the enemy jungle until back up comes. If back up doesn't come you know you're in low elo.

After scuttle you can gank lanes, invade, or recall and get the other scuttle(if its not already taken) or re do your pathing.

Tip #2 Peel for you team The best way to win is to keep your team alive.

Tip #3 Know what you're going to do before you do it. You should know exactly what you're going to do when you're ganking a lane / looking for a play. If you don't know exactly what you're doing dont do it.

And if you don't know if what you're going to do is going to work out dont do it

Tip #4 Play slowly and push advantages Don't try to force a fight when you can just play it slow and get the same outcome

Tip #5 DODGE Games https://blitz.gg/invite Look at your team mates stas if you have two 45% wr players on your team i would dodge that. Unless you of course are one of those 45% wr players then yikes

Amumu Tip #1 Look at your ult cd You're nothing without your ult. Amumu Tip #2 Peel for your team. Keep your team alive maybe they wont die so much Amumu Tip # 3 Make sure you team is around you when you engage Never go in a fight if you're not positive your team will follow up

Hecarim Tip #1 If your top lane is winning play towards them and camp their lane. If you camp the top laner who is already winning you're making the game a 4v5 basically removing the enemy top from the game.

General Tip: Don't play Warwick/sejuani/xin Only play rammus if you're last picking.

Nunu is great, you can play him like amumu without having to worry about your ult

I like playing tank junglers from time to time, but as a Silver 1 almost 98% of the games I play a tank jungle i get reported for griefing. Almost no one at this rank knows what grouping or working together is. It's better to just play a carry and pray your other lanes don't feed. Because them not feeding is the only help you will get majority of the time.
