How do you jungle?

I know the basics of jungling but the biggest issue I've had with jungling is clearing the camps. I watch all of these high elo junglers on streams and videos and even on the worst of champions they manage to do almost perfect clears with 2 HP pots or less and still be at full HP and ready to gank, but when I do it I run out of HP by the third-fourth camp and can't even gank.

Is it kiting? Is it poor runes? is it poor masteries?

Think of how to avoid extra dmg Leash camps to where you want to save time

Drag out camps and kite and wait for cd Runes and Masteries have a large impact Depending on what you get

Biggest one I do early (d3 jungle main btw) is to make the first camp jump back and forth between you and whoever is leashing. Saves about 2-3 hits on you and won't impact their lane if done correctly because they might get hit once. After that, try to involve the scuttle crab on lower hp jungle clearers as it regens you a ton.

Kite until an ability comes off of CD. Your AD rune page looks fine. I think it's just that you're dying so often and pick up less CS because of it.

What's your jungling route?

AA champions like Yi, Jax, Noc I start krugs> red> blue then back because of low HP.

Opposite way around with casters Gromp>Blue>Red then back

It's better to start bot lane anyways because they give you a better leash.

I prefer to do Gromp/Krugs > Buff > camp > Recall > Krugs/Gromp > Buff. When I recall, I buy another Hunter's item so that I have ample sustain. For sturdier junglers I skip the extra camp+recall to see if I can get in an early gank. For Ex: Nocturne would take the first route, and MasterYi could take the second route. Killing Scuttler takes so long that it's better to back. The extra camp is worth more gold and xp, but if you're forced to back without it, you can upgrade your flask anyways - because if you couldn't finish the camp, you most definitely had flask instead of 3 pots.
