Vel'Koz Jungle, viable in higher elos? Not trolling.
What do you guys think about Vel'Koz jungle? I've had lots of success in lower elos (bronze,silver) and normal games, would it work in higher ones? I've gone legendary multiple times with it. Its a legit question cause he has great clear speeds with easy kiting to stay pretty healthy. He has awesome ganks with a knockup, a hefty slow, and a long range ult that is very hard to escape not to mention all of the above are AOE. People play Aurelion Sol jungle and Fiddles and it seems like he'd be even better than both. Its also hard to invade him with his E/Q combo.. Obviously he is entirely skill shot oriented so he is hard to play as a champion, but if you have good mechanics and can land your skill shots, he seems like he has everything you need to be a solid jungler. Most people's knee jerk reaction is to say it sucks until they actually think about it or see it played.. but i seriously think its a very viable choice if your team comp can accept an AP assassin jungler.
Any actual thoughts on why it wouldn't work compared to other ap assassin jungles?
