What I love about jungle more than ANYTHING, is that I don't have to last hit CS.

[Pyrrha_Nikos]

The thing I love and hate the most about jungle is that it is probably the most swingy role. It's the role with the most agency in the early game and there's no better feeling that abusing that agency all in your favor. But sometimes your laners just get you fucked just by existing and your agency goes completely poof in champ select. There's probably no worse feeling than having a losing mid matchup and a support that doesn't roam and be facing a Graves or something like that. He can just walk into your jungle and there's nothing you can do to punish him, because he is balanced and always has backup

I love making the enemy jungler hate his life😏

[CptApplestrudl]

Lately I'm being filled into my secondary role A LOT! (support) Before preseason that almost never happened but now I'm basically a support main :(
and when I finally get to play jungle I get monkeys for teammates. I check blue and ward a jgl entrance, while mid stares at his own tower and botlane stand in front of red buff...no wards, no vision in bushes etc. The entire enemy team walked up to them unseen and got the freest first blood in the world.

Things I love about the jungle:
- BEING A MF GAMEPLANING GENERAL
- absolutely gapping the enemy jg and making their life hell
- staying in the flow of the game with total map awareness. Being in a role that can read/impact all areas of the map.
- Optimizing clears - I genuinely enjoy trying to learn how to clear as fast as possible (new changes feel bad) and being rewarded for this effort.
- Champion Diversity within the role (my pool consists of an AP bruiser, Utility Tank, and AD snowball assassin/bruiser! Pretty cool)
- Balancing decision making - Should I gank? Keep farming? Pressure objective? Optimizing and managing decisions based on opportunity costs - gigabrain plays!

Things I hate about the jungle:
- Instability of the role (PLEASE STOP CHANGING CORE MECHANICS/FUNDAMENTALS MULTIPLE TIMES EVERY SEASON).
- laners ignoring pings - not listening to shot calls.
- Graves and Kayn.
- playing with a bad mid laner (good luck ever securing objectives or punishing successfully with invades)
- abuse we have to endure from laners constantly (easily the most flamed role)
- losing when I feel i'm outperforming enemy jg (so tilting)
- winning when I feel I make no impact (I barely even remember these games they are so uneventful)
- Lack of clarity for the role (Before I got coached, I was making a lot of mistakes that were not at all obvious. I would have never figured this out on my own without the help of a former challenger coach (no not neace) because these mistakes were not at all obvious to me).

What I hate as a jungler is when I have an idiot who feed his lane saying 'Gank me', 'no ganks', 'omg my jg sucks', 'big jg diff' when it's his entire fault not warding, losing trades, not countering the items of his enemy and the worst part goes afk even if the game could be won. That happens a lot in gold/plat4-2 divs. In plat1/diam/master at least things are better, people are less toxic there but u can still find some toxicity but the prob with these divs is that you cannot play with /mute all as you can with gold/low plat since games are not easily carried by one person there.

I love: not dealing with a lane/direct lane opponent.

I hate: being flamed for doing poorly even when you tell people you're new to jg.

Hey Virkayu, awesome video. Do you think, Season 13...it's time....for a new Zyra Jungle guide try? 😁

[benpjhh]

All facts i am not very dood at the game at this point i even stopped trying to be but for a cople sesons i was stuck at s3/2 and i started doing this:
I have 1 tryhard acc where i play what j can play the best that will be eve shyvana diana and every day i start with the teyhard acc and i play max 3 game where i go all in and another acc where i woud play after those 3 game if i was to play lol and i woud play everything except eve shyvana or diana and this way i staied silver on the second acc but easely and i mean very easely hit gold (and stopped playing for a cople of months) :D

[valentintran]

What I love in jungle is that I can escape my bad adc with the jungler to go roam the map and finally have agency, what I hate is when I understand I get to weakside and I hear my top and jungle die in a dive.

[ericwolf]

I always end up gravitating towards options that can roam easier because I'm a jungle main. If I end up getting outplayed by a laner in their main role I just try to loose the lane with grace and make macro plays to get the team into it.

[Madowl]

you look like the Australian Goalkeeper!
by the way, I love your vids.

[pelleskutt]

I hate that the pre-season brought us huge performance issues. I lost 20 fps and have constant 20-25 drop in fps now...

[luxpi]

I Love taking Heralds and Smash turets

[hecatrice]

“Whatever the hell Graves is” they should put that in his lore

[johnwickfromfortnite]

The best part about jungle is definitely feeling like you’re in control, you’re the one making all these decisions and carrying the game but on the other side you have no control over teammates and you have to play around bad players. Like knowing who is capable of carrying and helping them instead of wasting your time bot lane because they want ganks knowing full well they’re always hard pushing. Which is completely out of you control and it definitely sucks being told is your fault for spmeone else’s dumb decisions. Some people don’t understand that maybe giving up dragon to get herald and make top lane an unstoppable beast can win games but stuff like that happens and that means you just have to carry harder.

I love having an emotional support pet this season.
