iEpicFailLoL··1 votes·1,421 views

I'm trying to use more jungle heroes in League of Legends unranked matches (I'm level 20) and I want to know which champions to use. Champions that I've confirmed that could be good Junglers: Amumu Gangplank Renekton Olaf Vi Udyr Champions that I need to experiment on in order to see if they are good Junglers: MonkeyKing Shyvana XinZhao Does anyone know of any good champions for Jungling? If you can, please add a build (does not have to be complete).

P.S.: I'm new to the forums.

Nice Idea, duly noted. Thanks. Vi "Get Dunked"

Not worth using over Lee, Vi, Shaco, J4 or Rengar in any way.

People can disagree on that statement. Especially the jungle Shaco part.

I heard of Nidalee mid being really strong right now, Jungle Nidalee is also OP and I think that giving Nidalee a shot (because she is insanely OP) is a good idea. Thanks!

Lee and Jarvan are the best junglers.

Agreed my friend. Agreed.

Top 5 Jungle champions IMO:

Nidalee JarvanIV Vi Olaf LeeSin

After that it's a moderate step down in efficiency, but you can make champions like Amumu Diana XinZhao Khazix work pretty well if you want to play them.

I agree with Vi and Lee Sin being really good. I haven't tried the other Champions yet. Thanks!

Jarvin, Lee and fiddlesticks fill different roles and can wreck teams in different ways. Nidalee is op right now mid early game but late game if you force team fights she'll get wrecked.

Nidalee may be OP right now, but I need someone who will stay consistent with their power. Nidalee can be bad if she is denied farm. Riot is releasing a patch for her in the next update.

There's a lot I could say here but I'll just mention this:

Like any of the roles, Jungle should be choose based on what your team has, what they've chosen, and what your team needs. To that end, it doesn't look like you have too many AP junglers. Give Fiddlesticks a shot.

It also doesn't look like you have any pure tanks - i.e. the ones who absorb a lot and don't put out much damage. Try grabbing Rammus sometime (great for tower pushing in those games where your team doesn't understand what an objective is) or Maokai.

I see your point of view. Thanks for helping me understand Rammus a bit more. :)

Sejuani Fiddlesticks Nidalee

Try these on for size. They're specialist junglers that bring a different playstyle compared to the typical picks.

I regularly Jungle as Sion Nasus Volibear Trundle They're all good but it is going to depend on how you like to play. I prefer to make them Tanky as possible with Sion being the tankiest champ my teammates have ever seen.

Add me and we'll run some I've got a friend about your level who plays top we're usually on every night.

He's a top pick in the competitive scene right now, so I doubt he was really forgotten...

Jungle sion works, however he may not be the best for brand new junglers.

Yi, Amumu, and Lee sin are good junglers for beginners. They are pretty easy overall, Amumu has tons of cc, Yi has tons of damage, and Lee has tons of both on a shorter cooldown.

Sion is my most played jungler this season so far (like 80% of my jungle games have been him and I main jungle), and he is really pretty great. The best way to play him is start W and if you are starting blue buff side, Smite Gromp and clear that whole side, back for your upgraded jungle item if you have the gold, or try and clear one more camp (Scuttle crab is great for this) and then back before clearing red side with your upgraded smite. On red buff side, start at Red, get a leash and smite kill it so you don't use a pot. After that, kill wolves and then Blue buff (and Scuttle crab on that side if it is up). If you are healthy after that, gank top or mid, if you aren't back for your jungle item and clear the rest of the camps (Gromp, Raptors, and Krugs) and then look for ganks. If there aren't any lanes shoved in towards your team, look to farm till 6 and control vision like warding and Scuttler, and watch for countergank opportunities. Once you hit 6, you just do lane ganks. Even if you miss your ult, you can usually get them to burn flash by charging past them if you can't get a direct hit, and even at max your ult is a much lower CD than flash, so it is worth if you gank before their flash comes back. For items, go item 3713 until 6, and then swap it for item 3709 once you can afford the enchantment. Get item 3078 next (go Phage>Sheen>Zeal) and then pure tank. Warmog's is great for junglers right now for sustain in between ganks. Other than that, think about Locket, Randuin's/Frozen heart, and building boots of choice (you get tenacity from Juggernaut, so my personal Favorite is either item 3047 or item 3009, with either Furor or Homeguards).

Hope you like how he plays (By the way, if you could make Renekton work for you, then Sion should feel amazing!).

EDIT: Here are some other suggestions to try out:Malphite Chogath XinZhao and Taric (he actually works pretty well because of armor stacking and his AOE for clear, stun for ganks, and heal for sustain).
