Hello everyone. My name is Alias.

Chapter 1.0 - What types of Junglers are there?

I thought this was a guide on "how" to Jungle?

Before we jump into the jungle, we have to take a look at the three types of junglers.

Tank/Support
Semi-Carry
Carry

Tank/Support

Examples:

What's my Focus?

Snowball your allies (All-Game); Take no kills
Wards/Oracles; Map Control
Peel for your Carries -> Hinder enemy Carries
Pure Tank

Semi-Carry

Examples:

What's my Focus?

Snowball your allies (Early-Mid) -> Snowball yourself (Mid-Late)
Wards/Oracles; Map Control
Peel for your Carries -> Eliminate enemy Carries
Tank first, Damage later

Carry

Examples:

What's my Focus?

Snowball yourself (All-Game)
Sight/Vision Wards (No Oracles); Map Control
Eliminating the enemy team
Pure Damage

Chapter 2.0 - Balancing the Team Composition

How do I know what type of jungler to choose?

If you have the ability to, you want to balance your team composition:

If your team has a weak front-line; Tanky Tank/Support.
If your team has little CC; CC-Heavy Tank/Support.
If you team has a decent defensive front-line; Damage-First Semi-Carry
If your team has a decent offensive front-line; Tank-First Semi-Carry
If your team has a strong tanky front-line; Carry

With experience, you will be able to pick the "perfect" jungler(s) for your team composition.
