Glad you like it! (It has Master Yi on it you are BIASED SIR BIASED but thank you lmao)

The farming style should pretty much always be better / consistent for the jungle player imo the problem is that in solo queue you have to deal with players not understanding this as they get ganked by a level 2 Vi and spam "jungle diff" from the death screen lol

Awesome vid! Thanks for the content!

Very great analysis and breakdown!

Been spamming Bel veth or Kayn. Came back from a 1 year break and i'm plat already with 65 % winrate. I focus mainly on farmin, ganking only when its on my route and objectifs are my priority number 1. The little spermy thing are so broken.

I love that my fiddlesticks does not show in any videos of tips nor "How to Play" videos. It makes me think really hard to know what's the best stretagy and etc. And the best part it's the "Meta junglers" doesn't know how to deal with my champion =3 Your advices are really good tough, this more general tips are really good to make the base of a really good jg. Nice Work ❤

So then, since I'm trying to learn Elise who is the most gankiest of gank junglers, when transitioning to midgame, it's best to focus on counter ganking and exploiting vision gaps to stay ahead?

I just started playing about 2 weeks ago, completely new never even looked into it. The video “I’m still here” had me try the game, I enjoy it. There is a TON to learn, and a ton of champions to play. Being new I chose jungle due to being left alone and que times are really low, the macros are good, however it’s the movement I’m still learning, dragging camps to far and then them being tethered, getting gapped just due to skill and experience. I really enjoy bel’veth, however my play style is too aggressive. I tried playing Yasuo jng, and it’s really tough until level 8-9. (2 items). I enjoy poppy as well just due to the scaling and I feel more impactful at late game, Rengar is too tough for me right now, I understand the principle but it’s just too much while I’m still resetting camps as I learn macros. On to my question, besides Poppy/rammus, what should I play? I hear don’t do jungle but I really enjoy it, I also like bot and top, I haven’t tried mid yet, but you always queue quick with jng, What I’m looking for is something that doesn’t go splat in late game, as I have yet not had a game be done in under 20 mins, it doesn’t have to be strong, just not fall off, I’d like a melee play style as I do pokes with any mage or distance characters. TLDR : I want to play a jngler where I can just drool and face roll on my keyboard and focus on my macros and not get dumpstered late game. Who should I start with?

Too funny, I just wrote a comment on the S14 best jungles video asking this question is it a ganking META? Whipping together a video just to answer my question in 2 hours no less. What a guy Virkayu!

The videos on when to farm or gank and when to leave the farm to help the team really helped. First time really playung ranked in 3 years of playing league and currently silver 4 with a 88% wr at 7-1 spamming graves and briar

Same as you tho I always forget to use e to stop my W and then accidentally go somewhere I dont wanna. Iv generally had good success with bruiser briar tho.

THANK YOU! VERY GOOD COMMENT! GOOD LUCK IN YOUR CLIMB!

Is morgana jg still good?

I used to like ganking junglers more but now with the current meta I am leaning more to Nocturne or Vi style of farm, get some ganks but not too much and then spyke at level 6. Good ganking junglers at lvl 3 like Xin Zhao or J4 are amazing when executed properly but I feel like they: 1) Are volatile, you depend on a lot of factors like your laners, and an early gank can end up in a double kill or in the worst case recalling and finding yourself counterjungled and already behind. 2) Need to be always ahead in gold or you are useless: you can end up getting very fed and then give a massive 700g shutdown to the enemy Vayne and then it's GG, good luck with your J4.

I actually find myself taking the first grub spawn and giving the first drake in most of my games. The way I think about it is this: as long as I can keep them from getting 5 or more grubs, then I'm in the clear. I have no problem giving the second grub spawn to catch up on farm and drakes

this channel is the jungler's goat

Any advice on selecting a pool of champions to focus on? In particular types of junglers to pick between based on comp and counter picks?

depends on your skill level. 1-3 champs max. learn fundamentals. 1 AD - 1 AP would be good. If you struggle when to gank and when to farm, select champs that have a crazy fast clearn, like Karthus, Brand, Hecarim. By clearing and sequencing your camps very fast and efficiently, you buy youself time to help teammates, because there are no camps to farm for 30 sec. Also you will almost never fall behind yourself by doing this. If Hec covered the botgank at 5:00 and did not run mid without any reason xin is almost out of game. His botlane is stronger, and he has still 2 botcamps up.

What if the enemy jungler is a perma invade/ganking jungler who also scales super hard(jax), I played against a jax today who invaded without prio all game , died on repeat, and despite me being ahead on lillia early, he completely killed my tempo and despite him dying on repeat, his invades wasted so much of our time eventually it worked and he got some gold and did jax things. Felt like I was playing against inting sion, but in the jungle.

I didn't understand what does that table at 0:17 mean If briar is easy ganking/invading jungler, does that mean that she mostly ganks but no that much as hard ones?

It just means easy to play, they're sorted by difficulty

Which is the best one to learn the jungle position, I'd assume the ganking/fighting one since you _have to_ interact ?

@RinzlerLegacy

4 ай бұрын

I'd say the opposite. Ganking junglers require one thing: confidence. Sometimes taking action as an aggressive jungler means coinflipping (you can't fully trust your teammates' ability in SoloQ), which means you have to give up on securing income (farming camps) to take the risk on the kill. The best choice for beginners are farming junglers, because you can learn the basics of gold efficiency with camp sequences. And once you've learned it, you can be sure you're not gonna fall off as a ganking jungler if your ganks are not that efficient.

Also, take Jungler with easy kits. Nothing mechanical complicated that takes off attention from the macro part of the Game. Warwick, Trundle and Nocturne are all great picks for starters. Strong Fighters, easy abilities with good amount of forgiveness for bad decisions while fighting.

I play hecarim and have an average of 700 gold lead in the early game and usually get way more cs but still Gank. But often even though I have a lead im scared to go in and fully commit to fights because if I die then we loose the entire game with my trash teammates who will just die with a lead. Even though this does lead to me loosing like 50% of my games and always getting Ace and average 4.7 KDA. Recently iv been trying to push my lead more.@@RinzlerLegacy

@@Kerdtress as a ww main - this is not a noob friendly champ at all. you can do insane plays by holding his Q, knowing when to pop W or when not to, hold E or use it for fear asap, opening with ult or keeping it for when you're low. I repeat. warwick is not a noob friendly champ whatsoever, nor is it even any good, it's a high risk mediocre reward champ as he falls off hard by mid/late game regardless of how fed you are, plus has no disengage abilities unless you're willing to waste ult. No forgiveness on this champ. Neither is nocturne a good pick, the amount of plebs I see just ulting the moment they see one enemy only to dash into 4 more enemies is insane, knowing what abilities work with your E etc, see some nocturnes even try use E to block ignite damage/poison it's like bruh what are you doing.... No forgiveness on this champ, same as warwick, but at least is more viable pick than ww. Trundle I could agree is a noob friendly champ sure, I'd even say hecarim is a solid noob friendly champ you can only go wrong with your E knockbacking into wrong direction, Vi is atm very strong and easy to play too, perhaps sejuani. Not much else I can think of for newbies to give a go at.

As a noc main, fast clearing with great and easy to set up ganks, this season is perfect. Also both noc builds are really good spot, Lethality and bruiser. got around 5 win streak with him, when ofc hes not banned, im liking xin and Yi for. Sadly khazix isnt in a really fun place to play rn

Give Nashors > sunfire > jaksho > riftmaker diana a spin lmao. Hard farm and objectives early absolutely unkillable 1v5 mid late game

To Gank Farm or to Season 14!

It's a farm meta.

"To gank farm or to season 14"

To gank farm or to season 14 :)

there is 2 game breaking plays. at around 5:00 heca should cover his bot and take his bot camps. Why does he run mid??? at 7:20 - if he kills xin here, xin is out of the game, it was a very close fight, Janna misplayed it and overall the support gap in this game was so huge. Blitz roams and Janna doesnt ward properly. Without any question Hecarims playstyle is a lot better. 1-2 small changes in this game and xin falls so far behind, that he has no more impact in this game. I guess in very low elo this shitfest ganking style can work out. To me it always feels like putting a bet on the enemy team being bad. Even now with the new map I am surprised how little effects it has on laners being too stupid and dying to ganks.

why does every jungler video talk as if your teammates don't exist. The ganking jungler is also helping their team get ahead in their lane, which somehow isn't even mentioned in this video. So basically, the ganking jungler gets to the same strength as the farming one, but is also helping their teammates become stronger, so in that scenario the ganking jungler has done better.

TO be completely honest... This Xin did not win those fights because of gold lead or good decisions or smart jungling... He just won because he is Xin... No more, no less. If Hecarim was 6/1 with 100 CS and Xin still on 75 CS and only 2 kills... Xin still wins... Even on a bad engage. Because Xin. So this whole situation is a bit "meh". I get the concept but the concepts don't apply to "balanced" champs.

@virkayu

4 ай бұрын

They literally do. It shows you don't value Hecarim... if he LITERALLY had the same gold? He also wins those fights. Not because Xin. Yes, he's strong. GANKING JUNGLERS tend to be stronger at those spikes with gold and abusing items. But Hecarim? He would do the same thing in the reverse situations! His XP value did not equate to the Gold value (items) and his items are also very strong. If principles never applied to balanced champs - why do I have success with Zyra jungle using the same ones? I know Xin wins in those situations so I avoid them... Hecarim made mistakes and didn't. That's the point. Neither played perfectly and that was also the point.

@@virkayu The concepts don't apply to Xin though. I don't disrespect Hecarim. I am saying Xin doesn't care... Hecarim can do nothing to a Xin. There are very few champs that can stop a Xin from doing whatever he wants on the whole map... And they weren't in that particular game. And running away from him all game doesn't seem like that good an alternative either. The only thing Hecarim can do is avoid being around Xin at all times.... Try to influence the map where Xin isn't present. So... "running away from Xin". Which also means Xin can't be contested or counter ganked properly, is my point. Were it any other champion, the whole video would be great. Xin is just a bad example. Hecarim didn't lose because of mistakes. (I agree he made mistakes) Would he play everything right, he'd still lose to Xin in the end. Because Xin.
