But why no flash/ignte/exhaust/ghost?


Flash/ Ignite/ Exhaust/and Ghost are all talked about in the Spells section. From experience I have found that Ghost works better than Flash and Exhaust works better than Ignite on her...

Reasons:
  • long cool downs on Flash
  • most agressive champs will get Flash as well which means you Flash over a wall they follow and you still die
  • Ghost allows for many seconds of excape time, which she needs (not just one burst), and a smaller cool down
  • Kayle does massive damage as it is, so Ignite really doesnt finish champs off as much as you would think, while Exhaust on the other hand seems to let you really take it to them
  • Ignite is pure damage while Exhaust also keeps you safe on a gank by lowering their damage output
  • Ignite loses more end game appeal to me than Exhaust does as Exhaust still lowers their attack damage by a flat %

Wow. Just wow. So many people undersetimate Surge and Kayle the champion. Had so many 1v1 fights against the jungler in my series of Kayle jungle games. I never ever fed hard (lowest was a 2-3-11) in any of the six games so far, and only lost one! Your build is amazing, and I love it.

Also, if i may suggest you another jungling route:
Blue side- start at red, boots and 3 pots, ask bot and/or mid to help leash wraiths and red, and once you grab red, immediately gank bot or mid. If you're at top, just do the same thing but with top lane. It's great, because if they try to counter you, then you can steal both their blue, and get out safely.

Side note: Use your E at 1:38. If you don't, you lose a second or two at red, and to me, that's actually very important.

Anyway, I've rambled on too much. Great guide +1.

EDIT: Two of those six games, at least one person didn't enjoy the fact of Jungle Kayle. She's so awesome at it, we won within 18 minutes. :)

I like the idea of Kayle jungling but I disagree with two things. First, why a defensive mastery tree? Kayle really isn't a tank anymore and since she will be ganking don't you want more damage? Also, I think Flash as a summoner spell is definitely the way to go.


I think the defensive tree is for safer jungling. Either way, you would be taking defensive points, or utility, which you wouldn't need so much. Early to mid game, you should be shredding them so fast, the other offensive points wouldn't matter.

You wouldn't exactly need Flash because of your ult. Pretty much a "I won't die, so i'll just stand here as you try to kill me and you start running since im alive" skill. If you fail in doing so, your team should have protected you during a fight anyway, since you are part of the dps. Surge allows for you to get out more dps, and with that extra steroid, you wouldn't be dying that often anyway. Or at least in my recent plays.

Thanks for the votes guys; glad the build is giving you good results as it has with me! I have added a section with your alternate jungle route in the guide Sphlank, if you would like to describe it in more detail I would be glad to post it. Once again thanks guys...

Okay guide. The screenshots at the bottom are poor quality (you can't even tell what champion they're done with, and there are minors issues here and there (mostly grammar, spelling or layout) but I find the build and advice are solid. Sorry to hear it was stolen.
+1 from me.

Builds are kind of too expensive, and you should have a GP/10 since your a jungler

Note regarding the author of this guide:

He randomly downvoted not only my Sona guide but also the Nidalee one with the sentence:

"Getting downvotes sucks..."

It's an answer to my vote above and it seems he can neither handle constructive criticism nor write some himself.

This guy is a mad troll voter and his guide shouldn't be read by anyone

I'll leave this here as a warning for all the newbies looking at the guide and those who might think about voting themselves: Take care, it is not only senseless but also only made for trolling purposes

Have a nice day
