Farming as a Jungler

Kingdom Corn·Jun 20, 2016·3 votes·396 views

Hello, I am new to the game and I am bronze one. I am making this post to ask for help, if anyone can help me that would be great. The main issue I am having as a jungler is farming. I just get that feeling that 40 farm at 10 minutes is not good even if I am ahead of the enemy jungler. Getting like 40 cs by 10 minutes just makes me feel like I am playing terribly bad (which lets be honest I am since I am in bronze) and I would love some help from anyone. Thanks! (FYI I mainly play wukong jungle if not then I play evelynn)

well you are supposed to have the least cs in the game (excluding the support) because you have to walk to camps and they already have less creeps than minions in lane. They do give more gold though to compensate... dont feel bad at all. You also will get more gold from succesful ganks that you get the kill from.

check out scurb and scrapcomputer on youtube, they have some videos that could help you (helped me for sure, i now enjoy a jungle round whenever i play SR [ARAM main] and i find snowballing my team is generally easy with ganking junglers Pantheon )

other than that, pretty much what DacT1 said

and don't forget, after a successful gank you can tax a few minions for a quick gold injection (burning an enemies summoner spell is always a good gank, take a minion or two quickly and move on)

if somebody shows appreciation for ganking and they are doing good, return to gank this lane often as your laner will be in a great mood and be in a great mindset (and have gold) to make big plays also the enemy laner will likely tilt which will then turn that lane into a free lane for your laner, now you only have 2 lanes to worry about :)

most junglers prioritize ganking bot and mid lanes it seems however i enjoy helping my top out early, then mid in mid game and by late game the adc should be farmed up anyways to bring the damage but i keep a constant watch down there for two big reasons dragon is down there and thats important bot lane has TWO people you can kill :)
