Ashe Jungle

Kovah··2 votes·775 views

I'll just make a quick list here of my thoughts:

  1. The clear speed is pretty good. You are an adc and pump out damage.

  2. Your clear sustain is also good, she has a perma slow and if you are proficient at kiting you wont take very much damage from jungle camps.

  3. You are squishy and have no form of escape so you are vulnerable to counter-jungling. You should have a good idea of what the enemy team comp is before you decide to do it. If they have a champion like shyvana for example, you shouldn't have many problems fighting her, even early as you are able to kite pretty easily.

  4. Ganks are phenomenal. The perma slow pretty much guarantees a kill unless they have either flash or an escape up. Post 6 ganks are pretty much a free kill.

  5. Your scaling and team comp are self explanatory. The pick wont do well if top/support don't play tanks. You are sacrificing a slot normally reserved for a tank or at the very least a bruiser. If you can get past that bump in the road though having another adc on the team during the league of adc's is definitely an asset especially considering Ashe has so much utility.

Overall my verdict is that with the correct team comp and skill level as a jungler, Ashe can definitely be a formidable pick in the jungle. As long as you are able to control your own jungle and prevent too many instances of counterjungling, the gank potential as well as late game utility ADC aspect of Ashe makes it a worthwhile choice.

What are your thoughts?

It's not bad. I'm actually going to try it out in a few games. I've been looking for a strong ADC jungler that wasn't Kindred or Graves ever since Twitch got nerfed out of the jungle.

My sup was stealing all CS, so started farming in jungle from lvl 3. ( jg was AFK, whole game). Jg clear is good, but getting invaded and have to use Q often means MANA will be evaporate like hg.

Lucky for me, enemy jg was more conc on ganking my bot lane ( annie sup, stole everything). We ended up winning, I attribute it to failed bot ganks, annie got kills and enemy team being weak (an understatement).

Try it in bots first. I go with 30%AS runes, so that I don't overuse Q.

Ive done it a few times, its not bad at all. But you'll get called a troll and if your team doesnt have a tank you're screwed. its not to bad as long as you know how to ward your jg, use your E to keep track of the enemy jg and even if they come to counter jg. It's really easy to kite or just run away from them, wasting their time unless its a leesin or rengar.

She clears fast, has good vision control with her E, even her first clear is fast and healthy because she abuses krug buff amazingly. Ganks are okay, but shes not really meant for the jg and kindred, graves and any other meta jg does it much better. It's fun though.
