Low Skillcap Champions

Since my time start to become more & more limited by real life stuff. I decided to pickup some champions that I can maintain. I already have something figured out for top, support, adc & mid but I would like to discuss the options for jungle.

I search for junglers that have a low skillcap on both champion as game level. A champion that can work really effectly between low silver till low plat Some example:

Nunu is a champion with a relative low champion skillcap. However his game skillcap is massive. This makes the champions not recommanded for players lower than plat. However are a must to learn while arriving to that spot.

The junglers I currently was thinking about: WarwickViXinZhaoUdyr(PantheonMonkeyKing)

The junglers I currently are not sure about: AatroxFioraGangplankGarenIreliaJarvanIVJaxKhazixMasterYiNasusNocturneOlafRiven AlistarAmumuChogathDianaDrMundoEvelynnFizz GragasHecarimKayleMalphiteNautilusPoppy RammusSejuaniShacoShenShyvanaSionSkarnerTrundleVolibearYorickZacMaokaiKarthus

The junglers you shouldn't play in that elo FiddlesticksGnarLeeSinNunuRengarYasuoZedZyraEzrealBlitzcrankEliseTwitchTwistedFate

Now I'm wondering who can help with correcting this list. 1000 player opinions is bigger than one. Note that list is design towards the concept that your playstyle will be consistent so the champion you are playing should be usefull in any situation. It's hard subject to deal with since it's a different way to look to the game. I litterly have a 100% winrate with Nunu if it's a 5v5. But this doesn't mean he's consistent for climbing up the ladder. If their is a situation you get outplayed that will happen while your elo is rising you need a champion that can handle a punsh or 2. Secondly this champion also need to have a low skillcap you can focus on the game rather than the champion itself. This mostly prefers early game champions where their goal pretty straight towards. This is a good strategy so you can focus more on your mistakes and improve on a short amount of time.

That's why I think champs like Vi & Warwick are on this list. I would like to see this list grow.

If you cant play much pick up Wu. He's fantastic, flexible, and can also mid and top so you can still play your main when jungle gets snatched. He's also really good at carrying and is never a bad pick~

I wouldn't recommend Garen as a jungler. He can do it, but his ganks are very lack luster.

Btw what's your opinion about Nautilus: He's easy to use but I'm not sure about the game skillcap that is required to play him. His weakness can easy be exploited but I'm not sure that's really effected for his elo.

I think Nautilus would be to risky but what about Maokai that forfill a similar role but has poke, cc but also a peel ult ?
