I personally have only played league for a little less then a year and my skill has only improved slightly. I fell in love with league as a side hobby and i found myself as a Jungler since when i first joined the game i was forced into it by teammates at the beginning. Grant it, i love my position as jungle main ( I decided in my stupidity to get Rengar since he didnt use mana, though i grew to learn the jungle with him.). later on i had more struggles as to who to choose to play as i grew as a player. that aside, i want to learn more about the jungle through my seniors. Please teach me ;-;

You should start with Pantheon, Amumu, Vi; try clear your camp without the help from teammates ( practice this in Coop vs AI ), learn how to gank through lane or dive the turret rather than gank through river, crabs are important, try to control the area around drag, you can start at the chickens rather than gromp or krugs, you dont need to get kills or assists when you gank, you just need to scare them. Also my English is bad :P

Renekton is a rather poor jungler honestly; he's more of a top laner. That aside, Rengar is a good solid champ to learn. Shyvana is kinda strong with the devourer enchantment on the jg item. All the champs you listed are fairly good at jungling, aside from Ren.

What's your play style tho? I myself play alot of jungle Diana. I'm more of a 'farm-up' sort of player, in that I'll stay in my jungle mostly for levels 1-6 and then make ganks. There's also junglers who like to gank early a lot or counter jungle heavily. It really depends on your play style and what you want to do in the jungle imo. I'm only Gold 4, so I might not be as knowledgeable as other people, so I'd say look at what your strengths are and choose a champ that best fits you.

My one big tip that I have is ward up and always carry 1 pink with you so that you can sneak a dragon in. I've found that in high silver/low-mid gold, people tend to not pay attention to drag until maybe, 15-20mins in. With Diana, I tend to rush it around lvl 5-6. Make sure you ward the inside of the pit with the pink and the outside with trinkets so you know if an enemy is coming or not. You also have to make sure your laners are on the same page as you, so if bot lane is pushed up, ping them to either watch their bot or to come and help you. Same for mid. In general, do your best to constantly keep an eye out for opportunities to get objectives like Baron/dragon. If its 25-30+ mins, and the jungler shows their face at bot and you know that your team has the man-power, take Baron or make calls to push.

Use vi, elise, ammu, reksai,xin zhoue these junglers . as they are easy to play and carry do wonders. I don't recommend sej or shaco bec sej is too nerfed and better options shaco is too squishy. Do not play lee or nid unless you are pretty expericene with them because of the skill needed in order to use them to full potential.

none of those junglers are really meta.

Don't use rengar, he may be popular among people but he isn't that good unless you are experienced with him. Even pros struggle to use him effectively.

You need Master Yi.

You don't even have him on that list.
