Why does Illaoi even have a jungle page? She's complete garbage in the jungle.

Am I doing something wrong? I thought she was supposed to be able to jungle, she even has a specific page for jungling. But she feels absolutely fucking useless in the jungle.

I'm assuming (haven't played her yet) she moves way too much to be useful in the jungle.

You can pull camps to a tentacle; one placed right can do gromp and blue, another for wolves, and a third for red and krugs.

That still takes time because of the passive right? A very slow jungle isn't a useful jungle.

It's not very long, actually, and you just have to move towards the wall at the right time.

And I jungle a lot, I've even had success playing jungle blitzcrank in the past. But this is just absurd. She can just BARELY clear, even after fiddlefucking with masteries and runes over several games. Her ganks are alright, when she can actually land her E. It's like blitz's grab, but it has this weird annoying windup time, and sometimes it seems as if it goes right through people since it's so narrow.

When I build the recommended items, I feel SUPER squishy and die very fast, but when I build tanky I don't do anything because all I have is damage and no CC. All the other juggernauts work because they either have ways to nullify damage, bypas your resists, or just have massive base damage. Illaoi just feels lacking. She doesn't feel like she has the damage and tankiness for her complete lack of CC and mobility.

She is VERY different to play in the jungle. It isn't your standard jungle. You have to preset tentacles on camps for later and such before they spawn when you can, especially buff camps. Her ganking is also a lot different, to where she doesnt directly engage the enemy, instead pulling them with E and then quickly destroying the spirit. She is just a very, VERY different Jungler to play.
