So I need a new Jg.

CitadelOfIce··1 votes·609 views

I have more or less gotten a handle on Kindred and I'm proud of that. But, Kindred can not change the face of the game on there own. If 2 of the three lanes feed to the point that they can 1 shot you should you even think to gank there is not much you can do to turn that around. I need a off meta mid to late power-spike champion to Jg with. I did a little digging and got a list I need your help to tell me witch ones just look good on paper and witch ones work.

Kassadin - good damage, excellent mobility, has CC for ganks and can build tank without kicking the bucket on damage.

Akali - good sustain, excellent mid to late game scaling, can get tanky, has a decent gap closer and mild CC.

Aatrox - good gap closer, tanky, good passive for a JG (you're less likely to feed someones lane if the gank goes toes up), good damage.

Kennen - good gap closer, has some CC for long ganks, good damage output, good scaling, and can split push really fast.

I'd probably recommend an actual tank or fighter.

Volibear and Gragas are my preferred options, but there are a lot of others.

none of those are viable junglers. kassadin is a mid laner akali is a tank assassin top laner aatrox has a terrible gap closer (it leaves you very stranded) kennen has 0 sustain look at Trundle Tryndamere Rengar Gragas Nidalee Vi ect although if two lanes totally feed to the point of you getting one shot, that game is going to be very hard to win https://youtu.be/sybwDMuMIAE its a little outdated but it is still helpful. BTW kindred is incredibly strong, if you cant win games with her you either need to pick a champ you are better at or you might need to just git gud

My friend plays Aatrox jungle, but then again, he's plat V

Marshbouy1 votes

im guessing he takes him as a splitpusher. the youtube i watch named stonewall says aatrox is bad becasue he is very snowball reliant and has a bad gapcloser. Im gonna believe him since hes been playing since the beginning of league. Aatrox can totally work but that doesnt mean he is the best

How about not picking these trash junglers and putting your team at a disadvantage and learn actual junglers.

yasuo is pretty good imo

Divine Winds1 votes

Yasuo has pretty bad base dmg though... A lot of people wouldn't recommend Yasuo. He has a decent cd doe

If you want an engage jg get Vi/Sejuani If you want an assassin get Rengar/Diana If you want a fighter get Wukong/Hecarim

Rek'sai is good, but way too squishy early game. I main Rek'sai. She has decent clear, and great ganking with her e.

Kassadin and Kennen are not good choices because of how poor their clears are going to be, I would stay away from any squishy AP jungler other than Fiddlesticks. Aatrox is okay but there are other champions that play very similarly to him but do it better like Jax. Akali is a decent jungler but I've only tried her as a tanky jungler and it looks like you want someone who can carry games. Know this though, if all your lanes are feeding it extremely hard to come back from that regardless of what champion you use, unless you are significantly more skilled than your enemy team. I'd recommend Trundle or Xin Zhao who are both good and can help carry games if you use them well. If the enemy team has no hard CC then Master Yi is still a strong pick even after his nerfs.

All four of those junglers are trash-tier. You want junglers that can clear fast, lock in kills and still do respectable damage as these are the ones that are currently top-contenders as far as the meta goes.

Trundle's kit is gutladed with both damage and utility, and can mess most folks up in a 1v1 scrap, so he's my vote. Vi is also a good one.
