So i've been jungling a good bit of my games. Starting off with Warwick as my first, i loved it. Ganking was great fun. Since then i've played various games with Nidalee and Chogath, learning them fairly well. (I think WW is still my best jungle though) I've also played around with a Nasus jungle just because it's strangely fun! Do any of you have some suggestions on Good junglers i might enjoy playing as? Try to keep them cheap IP ones if you can. I also like sneaking into the enemy's jungle and stealing buffs to only leave the small creeps. So a jungler good at that or even good at early 1v1ing in the jungle. Like i've heard Shaco is good at that? Anyway. I'm just here to ask for some suggestions, ideas, and tips!

The jungler you should get next is Ekko. Yes. The champ who is not even out yet. Watch gameplay footage on YT. It is completely viable.

Nunu is the most amazing counter jungle ever, with snowball and blood boil you may not kill the enemy, but you can get away super easy and just be so annoying. Love that little bastard.

If you like invading and early ganks I'd also suggest looking at udyr and xin zhao (probably spelled that wrong). They are both only 1350 IP and are really strong at killing the enemy in early game invades. Plus they aren't really all that mechanically complex.

If you're okay not invading and killing the enemy and want a bit more defensive/team fight oriented jungle, Amumu is pretty cheap, and the biggest issue is his ganks are way weaker before he gets level 6. You're already used to this though if you like WW. (He definitely isn't a strong invader though so if that's important look at the others.)

Finally, if you're good at mechanics and want to invest time to learn a champ, Lee Sin has been good in the jungle no matter how many nerfs get thrown his way. He's a bit more pricy IP wise, so you'd have to be sure you're good at mechanics (since if you're not you won't like him bc he'll be kinda weak if you don't use his kit well and you'll regret spending that much IP), but if you are, you'll love him. He's just amazingly versatile if you're good w/ him. I never liked him though bc you have to weave auto attacks in between abilities and I don't like champs where that isn't optional.

His early game ganks are garbage so he doesn't have as much lane impact as other junglers, but he will easily outfarm just about every other jungler in the league, and he's a true hypercarry so if you get fed you can slaughter entire teams with ease, which is always fun.

I love Shyvana

She's strong enough to counter jungle very well and has a very easy time clearing jungle. No real problem 1v1ing in the jungle either. Her biggest issue is CC though, her ult can push people back but you're basically forced to bring exhaust. Certainly not the best jungler but turning into a dragon is 10/10 so that's my take.

4800 ip, little costly but not the full 6300

elise. ww is cacner and if i get one in my teaming dim don i know he will be complete useless but probably good in trans elo. i spamme dleise this week and she work in diamond once you get good with her. she is hard to play do but so rewarding and fun and have carry potential. but she is probably to hard for you but if you are willing to struggle through 50 games with her just just watch my stream i can teach you how to play elise

Maokai He isn't necessarily the best ganker but does decent damage early game for clearing buffs. He has decent sustain as well, and your sapling give you some extra vision/safety. One of the strongest things to do with him in my opinion is a good lane gank or flank gank. The problem is that you rely on your W to get on top of someone and it is fairly short range, but once you are on them tehy aren't getting away without a flash. Also, he is arguably one of the best tanks late game due to his ult for teamfights by tanking and reducing all of the damage on your team. With this in mind I would pick him on a team that has some good "pushing" champs so you can set up a very good counter/lane gank
