r/Jungle_Mains

I've been watching some guides and I saw them talking about raptors start. You start raptors, full clear, then instead of recalling you go back to raptors do them again and do krugs then reset.

I don't understand what's the point of doing this? Why not just full clear then reset and clear normally? I saw them doing this on Briar.

with the sudden skyrocket in winrate play rate and ban rate of nasus jungle, will we expect to see him be nerfed soon?

Im trying to climb to diamond, but my teammates often just troll and claim jungle diff, especially bot lane. So what jungler really can solo carry team?

I'm a fairly new player. I've been loving Viego, but he requires much more knowledge of the game and characters that I simply lack. What other champs are strong that I should play? I don't want characters to get me out of silver; I want a long-term character that is consistently strong that I can use until I know enough to go back to Viego. (My problem with Viego isn't his kit; it's just that I don't know the other character well enough to justify using him over other champs) Who do y'all recommend?

Hello !

Not specially a jungler here, but in need of answers :

We often see in competitive junglers that doesn't kill the very last krug.

Do you know why by any chance ?

Thanks for your time ! :)

Okay so I finally decided to take ranked seriously again after a couple years because I would legit just play my 5 games and hit gold/plat and just leave it. I'm getting back into the swing of things but I'm noticing a lot more counter-jungling this time around. It didn't happen very often for the first couple of games, but now almost every game, the enemy jungle invades my raptors by second second clear. The only reason why I am asking is because a couple of years ago, they nerfed the hell out of xp gain from enemy jungle camps to prevent snowballing. Has this been reverted or is it just a part of the meta again? I just want to know now to save myself time and change up my playstyle otherwise. Thank you for you time!

I’m a Viego main with my next most played jungler as nocturne although they both have the same strengths of being good against squishy comps and bad against heavy cc and tanker comps so who would be a good second jungler to play when the enemy comp is bad for Viego/when he is banned?

As title says, haven’t played in almost 10 years, previously jungle main. Looking to come back now that I am getting a new laptop. What are the biggest things I should look out for?

I understand graves e tankiness but other than that? like same burst but jayce has further burst, a gap closer, and a gap creator, max health damage, etc.

Im a graves main but playing jayce recently and he feels almost just as strong, just a little clunky

I’m a 70% wr Grandmaster Kindred and it pains me greatly when I coach players who feel lost even after “playing the fundamentals” by full clearing into scuttle/drag/gank. The map moves too fast and changes too often to not skip camps every now and then. Is it more risky? Honestly it’s less so if you can make an educated well reasoned guess that your invade/gank/neutral is going to work out. You do not int your time because if it takes you 2 camps worth of time to do anything then you could’ve been in the exact same position with 4 extra cs.

The “6camp into X” is the basic form of jungle because the people who say it don’t trust the judgement/micro of other players to do anything else so they say “hey if you fuck up now there’s no risk behind it since you now aren’t losing the time.

If you believe like you’re a little lost while still playing “the fundamentals” and want to give me context I’ll watch a vod for free. Just add me on discord (.GeminiJester don’t forget the period lol) Jungle cannot be as rigid as people say it’s like if you only used one route to work and then an accident happens you just say well damn ig I’ll just not move and wait. Had you used gps you would’ve been able to both adapt and get to work on time.

I'm not really high elo myself I'm D4 but whenever I try to practice this champion on a different account I can't carry with her even in gold mmr. Her kit is so hard to actually carry games with and play correctly. I find it really hard to decide when to use ult too. I know the theory for when to use it but it's still not easy in-game. I also find it hard to have high tempo with her since you have to play efficiently around your bleed damage and not stay too long on camps. Using yout E is also not easy at all in a fight. Last game I got out-tempo by a gold Kayn player when I was 5/0. I have like 39% winrate with her on a gold account which sucks because I really like her kit lol.

When I see statistics her winrate does well the lower elo you. How are lower elo players doing so well with her? It's like it's Garen or Malphite mechanical level at all.

How do you guys manage to keep your mental and positive attitude up while watching your lanes/playing in teamfights?

I dont mean this as a funny joke or something, i think its really one of the biggest things holding me back as a player.

I always spam my f-keys while clearing and it feels like getting tortured most days. I see the most insane misplays and mistakes everywhere and always catch myself thinking: How did this guy reach Master 400LP? How did he climb though emerald, diamond, hell gold with that gameplay?

This really wouldnt be a problem on itself bit it really tilts me and the more mistakes my teammates make and the more my opinion of them crashes down the worse I play myself.

I start to be angry and tilt, do emotional plays and limit test and i throw so many games away because of that.

How do you guys cope with that and keep your mental in check? Do you guys have any strategies you can share?

Thanks!

For reference this is mostly Emerald lobbies sometimes plat 1, Had 2 games where one was a Zaahen the other a Ezeral where they were both 30-35, didn't talk, never pinged, didnt fight unless enemy was on top of them forcing them to have to, and would just try to stay away from wherever enemies are and just farm, thats it

Are they just throwing on alt to lower rank and avoiding bans? The Zaahen had done it like his last 4-5 games cause each game he ended like 1-1 or 1-3 with 250-300 cs

which late game jungler can carry 1v9 in a 40 minute game with feeding teammates, no prio, no objectives, fed enemy team with a tradional adc, engage/enchanter support, ap mid and tank/bruiser top lane, enemy jungler is a counter to you, has 3/4, enemy team has at least 3/4 items too..

but this jungler has at least 4 items.. and what will be your build and runes..
