Gapless gank jungler ??

MrSlowDie·Dec 1, 2014·1 votes·1,159 views

Hey, currently looking for a new jungler, since I feel like I only have 2 junglers, while I have 4 or more in the other roles. Well actually I have 3, but the one is just... doesn't fit my playsstyle. Ok here are my owned jugnler list

Best fit for me kind of OK very very bad, I literally NEVER carry a game with him.

playing noct make me realize something. I just hate farming as jungler !! he's an AD melee carry jungler, and need to farm a lot or can't do anything. While I love rammus, because of his gapless time between ganks, especially with homeguard !! I feel like I want to rush this item every game. I can gank 3 lanes in a blink of eyes.

jarvan is ok, especially with the new jungle item that provides slow, it makes me less worried of the enemy escape mech. I feel like I can ganking more often and early now

I know as a jungler I have to master everything about jungle. I counter jungle when there's an opportunity, I suck exp when my laners died, I get my buff when it's up. But I just can't visit my own jungle camp, I want to visit a lane :/ I rarely farm my jungle except when behind

So yeah, what champion that may fit my playstyle ? and for extra information, list of my fav laners

oh yeah, I got noct from an event in my server. In case someone ask why I bought noct.

I heard you lyke da rammus well meet rammus 2.0, yup you heard dat right TOO POINT O!!!!(disclaimer, 2.0 does not necessarily mean he is better than rammus) Introooducccing.. HECARIM ;D this fabulous non meta champ has an option for the best rainbow shittin skin out there also significantly lower ban rate than rammus

all the speed(not really as fast but minions dont stop you) of rammus with abit more OOMPH on impact with devastating charge kickass gap closing, AoE fear RAAAAINBOW D-D-D--D-AAAASH... assuming u bought arcade hecarim or found the code for it

Alright, to the point.. Hecarim is also a pretty mobile jungler like Rammus what u do is charge into lane really fast and ram into someone, which knocks them back on impact they're briefly stunned, knocked back, if ur ganking for yasuo and hes mashing his ult like crazy, he might just be able to activate it not as good as rammus taunt of course

But Hecarim coes have a better ult and proooobably more damage

eeeh no, hecarim has ms scalings but i find that rammus power ball at top speak beats rampage at top speeds I dont think Hecarims even close to a meta pick for whatever reason cuz i sure dont see alot of non troll hecarim videos lol

Trundle is a freaking beast, even in the new jungle. I am able to go Blue, wolves, red and still able to get effective ganks in all 3 lanes and have roughly 1.5k on my first b. his sustain in jungle is retarded and he is a cc king, as well as a tank killer. he has awesome ganks and lane presence. give him a shot!

http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1650672384/43085078?tab=overview

this is what happens when everything goes right! :P I snowballed all 3 lanes and got fed myself!

well, I love it especially when no one has CC, it will buff my early gank potential,

but yeah, I won't be a closed-minded why and what better jungler item you have in mind ??

The fact that you like rammus seems to indicate that you enjoy jungling with a tanky jungler. If that is what you are looking for try Amumu or Shyvana.

If you are looking for a jungler that can just run out at level 3 and start snagging kills, I find that Xin Xao or Pantheon is great for this. These 2 are also strong in the new jungle for those times you need to just farm a little. In either case practice in teambuilder or normals first to get used to them.

actually I am looking for both of them (if possible) amumu has a bad early which I always hate, and shyvana... just doesn't feel can gank :/

panth is worth to try though, everyone talk about his early presence, but I am kinda afraid he'll get nerfed :/

Cale017Dec 4, 20141 votes

Shyvana is a solid pick, but she doesn't really hit her stride until midgame where she can get tanky enough to just wade into teamfights in her dragon form. I love my girl, still use her when I'm just wanting to have fun, but she lacks the sort of utility you really want in a tank.

Amumu so good tho.

Pantheon can level 1 a dragon to get a team rolling early, and can be utterly oppressive early and midgame to laners. If he gets fed enough his lategame can remain intact, but otherwise he's probably going to fall off unless he starts using his ult to clean up fights instead of engaging for his team.

Amumu actually plays remarkably similarly to Rammus when I play them. On both I rush mobi boots before even getting any jungle upgrade and litter the map with beast ganks. As the game progresses, they scale into two of the best tanks in game and wreck in teamfights. Rammus having more adc dive/peel while Amumu has much more AOE damage and his broked ult(I usually top dmg charts and am still the tankiest guy). Amumu has a faster/safer clear which matters more in the new jungle, but he doesn't have Rammus's "idgaf how pushed this lane is, I'm ganking it even if I have to roll through two towers to lock this guy down." But ya Amumu is only weak early at dueling, same as Rammus. Just don't duel... His early ganks are very good.

Pantheon nerfs incoming are drag dmg switch to spell not basic attack(haven't seen confirmation on this just heard about it) and attack speed DRASTICALLY lowered. The attack speed will hurt his clear time and safety(less passive procs), which basically means you just have to be better at picking ganks because you want be able to farm as efficiently while waiting. Attack speed doesn't affect his burst which is all you need in ganks or if you build dmg and aren't bad(you should get close to 100-0ing even tanks with Panth). Pantheon has the best level 6 bot lane gank in the game too lol dat drop tho.

Shaco

Watch some gameplay videos on YouTube, but I'm pretty sure he's what you're looking for.

THIS, a friend of mine showed me a shaclone vid in this S5 pre season, an "I'll gank lvl 2" and that intense gank with less farm make me fall in love O,O really worth a try or two

Cale017Dec 4, 20142 votes

Shaco has a really weird learning curve. I personally don't like him, can't stand his playstyle. I know why he's good, but he's DEFINITELY not for everyone. A lot of room to make plays, or be trolly, but very wonky to handle.

I love amumumunumumumumumumu.

For the low low price of 450 IP you get... The best tank in the game.

Enjoy.

Cale017Dec 1, 20141 votes

Your list of favorites doesn't really show much of a pattern, but if you enjoy that tanky "go where I please hit who I want" style like Ali and Rammus have, I'd REALLY suggest Volibear. You can build him straight tank to great effect, although I would get the Feral Flare on him last season, and think the Skirmisher's/Devourer's works much the same. It's that little bit of extra damage that can win you 1v3s after you finish a Warmog's and a Randuin's. He also gets fed incredibly easy off of assists, which can only help with the stacking on your Devourer.

Shyvana's a solid pick too. She lacks CC but even if you build her tank she's got massive teamfight presence. Build her as a fighter and you can shred entire teams. She's who I learned how to top and jungle with.

You don't give Nocturne enough credit though! Sure he's gotta farm for six before he can really do anything, but he's one of my favorites, right up there with Shyvana and Rammus! I can't tell you how many plays I've made with his ult through the mid and late games, which is when he really hits his stride. Nocturne was my first quadra, and remains one of my favorite choices if I have a tanky top laner and a hard CC support.

If you're looking for massive, instagibbing damage like Riven, I'd suggest KhaZix or Rengar. Kha's the more mobile, but more squishy of the two, and after his nerfs a few months ago he can have a hard time if you can't get an isolated target, but the rewards are well worth the work. Rengar has much more potential right now, and can be build as an assassin or as an offtank depending on what you need. He can easily go burst or sustained damage, but MAN do you feel it if you're falling behind.

If you want a caster who can lock down a single target in the jungle, go with Fiddlesticks or maybe even Diana. They both have great single target damage, although Fiddlesticks sustains better so he's probably the stronger pick of the two in the current jungle. Elise is also great for this, and she can be incredibly damaging even while building mostly tank items. She's a bit janky to control at first though, I hated her when I first got her, but after a few matches she became like second nature.

Good luck, and happy jungling!

well, as far as I am aware, I love champ that can do things in early stages of game, Leona is my first and most fav champion, she's a tank, and she can outtrade everyone. Well she's useless when behind, but everyone isn't perfect. This early game champ fit my list, syndra (and being monster in late game), riven (yeah!!), varus (that early poke and utility in teamfight <3). I don't know about ali though.

I'll try to search some volis out there, but I am not confident enough with him because rarely see him :/

noct is good though, I just can't use him well :/

Cale017Dec 4, 20141 votes

Understandable. Using Voli to his best requires a very keen feel on when you're not tanky enough to try and go in on that 1v2 and when you've reached the point where you can safely go ham on a 1v3. It can be easy to assume that you're tanky enough only to find that you really weren't, and you have to pay attention to if they see you as enough of a threat to have bought armor reduction/pen early to counter you, or if anyone has build a Blade of the Ruined King. Provided that you're just that tanky Voli is an absolute beast at duels, and is an invaluable teamfighting asset. While you're learning him I'd suggest building the Juggernaut enchantment, even though it's very meh right now, appropriate boots (I usually go Swiftness to help with his Q and roaming) rushing a Warmog's for the increased damage on his execute, then a Warden's Mail, building a full Spirit Visage for the extra regeneration and self healing (it'll make you heal almost half of your health from his passive), finishing the Randuin's Omen, and save the last slot for something more situational. Thornmail if it's an all AD team, Banshee's Veil if their AP carry and AP top are getting oppressive, GA if you feel like just never dying ever never.

Nocturne has the same problem as Volibear. You have to just be able to feel exactly when you've reached the point that you can go in on certain people and when you're better off keeping your distance. If you're doing well, chances are you've built nothing but damage and while that isn't a bad thing on Nocturne it does make it hard to dive in teamfights, so your main job becomes catching people who are caught out. If you're falling behind, build a few damage items and then start building tank. He makes for a surprisingly effective offtank between his spellshield, passive cleave, and a VERY nice single target fear. Usually when I'm doing well with him I'll start with a BoRK for the on hit damage, but if I'm feeling pressured I'll instead get a Hydra for the extra jungle clear, wave push, and teamfight damage. What I've found that can make or break a Nocturne is proper use of his spellshield. It can take just a little bit longer to actually pop up than what feels intuitive, so try and use it before you think they're about to use an ability instead of when it might be too late. I can't tell you how many Darius' I've pissed off by letting them get stacks on me and activating that shield so I make his ult do nothing meanwhile I'm hitting the hard cap for attack speed and absolutely destroying him.

... Reaaaaally love Nocturne lol

Ok, I'm confused. The guy asks for a good early gank jungler, and people DON'T instantly suggest Lee Sin? Mr Slow, if you're looking for a jungler that's all about crushing the opponents early game, go either Lee Sin or Elise. Lee Sin can crush fools all day, while Elise can do that and do the craziest tower dives like a boss. If you're willing to wait till level 6 before doing heavy ganks, several other champs become really good, but for strong pre 6 ganks, adding those two to your roster are vital.

FantasySniperDec 7, 20141 votes

Amumu has good tankiness, but almost every viable build path for him involves becoming an AP bruiser. Shyvana is about to get buffs, so you may want to consider her Hecarim is an AD bruiser that's similar to Rammus Nautilus is a CC-monster, and can create a lot of opportunity during ganks while scaling fairly nicely into the rest of the game Zac has supposedly made a comeback and is a great ganker
