Jungle question.
I've always wondered why a lot of jungle players start wraiths instead of red buff. (assuming you start on red side) I've done it but i usually have less health going to the next camp if i start wraiths instead of red.

Raptors at Level 1 are worth more than any other camp, including buffs, by a long shot. But they are much more difficult. The raptor camps are also the easiest to steal and, with the importance of vision in that specific area on both sides, are often used as a gauge on where you are in your own jungle.
Raptors are also the start of the current "Super Leash" strat, where Mid leashes raptors and bot leashes Red, launching the jungler to Level 3 before Bot even hits lane.
You get more XP starting raptors.
