Pantheon. Great ganks, you can build full damage or tanky, and ManDrops for days.

If looking for something way Off meta how about Braum. Build him with high attack speed and you will proc his passive in no time, able to close gaps if planned right for ganks (jump to minions). Can build full tank, and has enough CC to always be useful.

I've done full tank jungle Fiddlesticks and jungle Garen.

Full tank jungle Fiddlesticks (or Cindersticks as I call it) focuses on the large amount of innate CC that Fiddlesticks has between his fear and his silence, the initiation power of his Crowstorm, and the sustain on his W. Of course the sustain on W isn't that great without any AP, but it still gets to be pretty useful once you get Spirit Visage.

His clears are get to be super mana efficient while still having a lot of sustain because of the clear speed added by Cinderhulk. You can clear most camps reasonably fast once you get Bami's Cinder/Cinderhulk, you have tons of sustain even with a rank 1/2 Drain, and you stay at full mana because of the passive mana regeneration on Hunter's Machete and its upgrades.

His weaknesses are obviously the fact that he doesn't have the tankiness that a lot of other tanks have (especially the lack of a tank steroid and magic resistance scaling), and his sustain doesn't scale super well into the later stages into the game, but other than that it's pretty solid. As a side note, I somehow managed to have a 100% win record with Cindersticks, even in games where I didn't do too hot.

Jungle Garen is more fun than anything. His first clear is pretty slow, but after that he clears reasonably well, and can indefinitely farm the jungle after level 11, when he loses the restriction of having jungle monsters break his passive.

Later on, he becomes the tankiest champion on the map with the % health on Cinderhulk, % resistances on W's passive, and % damage reduction on W's active, not to mention he deals enough damage after building Black Cleaver to still make himself a target that his opponents need to deal with.

The problems with jungle Garen are that he loses his strong early game. He can't gank well in the early game, nor does he have enough sustain to allow him to gank consistently unless he wants to camp the lane long enough for his passive to kick in, or if you want to walk across your jungle to take camps (ie. go straight from Gromp to Krugs).

Yea. He's uber fun. His abilities are OP like his ulti does damage every second I believe. So grab that with Rylai's Crystal Scepter and they pretty much are slowed for days. Also if you get the mask iitem 3151 also OP with all his abilities. But ya. Amazing jungler as well. Mordekaiser

I usually wait for proper initiation. W who ever is closer to enemy. E and Q. Shouldn't be that hard if you have rylais. Plus keep in mind your allies should have CC so it shouldn't be too bad.

To gank go Q into W for CC, E+R for damage, healing, waveclear and minion advantage. Didn't read jungler in you post, but jungler might work this way:

  • you know that pros tend to take attack speed runeson ap bruiser jungers in order to have better lvl1 clear
  • you know that Swain's E makes him deal up to 20% increased damage to he target - any kind of damage, including item effects. It might be viable to go on-hit Swain jungle, with BotRK (make sure to always only use the active on someone that has your E on), Iceborn (mana+increased spellblade passive), devourer+wit's end (+20% free stacks :3), Statikk+Zephyr for da speedos (and Statikk's passive is increased by E). I'd still take MPEN boots over greaves.

If you prefer to try normal AP Swain in the jungle, baits are your friend, dives are your friend, Zhonya rush if you have a midlaner that is not blue-dependent, try to take a global ult comp and counterjungle all day long cause if you get caught you bait them into waiting for your Zhonya's end while slowly dying... just remember to activate ult before Zhonyas and don't deactivate it if you pick someone off and they die in case a fight starts right after (did this mistake so many times, that 8 sec CD is forgotten so easily)
