Has a fair amount of CC in his kit which isn't great for you. In a 1v1 you should get him every time but if his team is anywhere near you'd better run for it.
Diana
Diana's early game is just a farm fest. Because of this you want to farm for 3 as fast as you can then start ganking as much as possible. This will put you ahead of Diana early and then it's just up to you to keep snowballing.
Ekko
Ekko is pretty good early game jungler. Like you he has minimal CC and a lot of damage. To beat an Ekko you want to keep good vision in his jungle and counter-gank and jungle him as much as possible.
Elise
Another early game menace. Normally won't go for Rappel until level 3 so if you can assassinate her early on, go for it. Towards the late game she will be really tanky but can still kill you with her combos so avoid if you can.
Evelynn
An assassin much like you. Always ensure you have a pink in her jungle on a gank path and watch out for your squishies pushing because that's where she will be heading.
Fiddlesticks
Has decent damage early but so long as you keep track of where he is on the map you can kill him and snowball very easily.
Gragas
Pure tank. You won't be able to assassinate this guy and he has a pretty decent amount of damage. Your best bet is to go wherever he isn't to try to pick up kills and farm.
Graves
Everyone knows about Graves' burst so watch out for that. His weakness is his early game jungle clear so go for the early invade and get yourself a kill and some free farm. If he chooses not to go any tank items towards the mid-late game it's just another carry you can get kills from and carry your team to victory.
Jax
This can be a very hard matchup for you. Your best bet is to get one early kill then avoid as much as possible. He can avoid your burst with his E, stun you and then do a tonne of his own damage so be wary.
Kha'Zix
ON THE HUNT! You are both very similar champions, you can both snowball really well, you both have gap closers and good burst. Hell you can even both go invisible. This matchup is pretty much whoever gets the first kill and snowballs best from this wins so go for them early ganks and if you can invade and get an early kill then you've pretty much got it in the bag, beware though as the Kha'Zix's game plan is pretty much the same.
Kindred
Oh boy. Kindred is probably the strongest early game jungler in the game and can stay farming with her extra heal. To win this matchup you want to deny as much farm as you can, steal marks left right and centre. Also get your team to let you know when their marked so you can get there to counter her and maybe pick up some kills. Late game if she does not build tanky you can jump her, force an ult then assassinate before it comes up again.
Lee Sin
Another early gamer. Will want to start ganking almost immediately so keep farming as much and as fast as possible so you can get enough damage to start being a threat. In team fights try to keep yourself away because he has so many tools to just ruin your day.
Master Yi
This is a great game for you. His early game is weak so get your tent and head off camping. Kill him as much as you can and steal his jungle all the time to deny him his level 6 and items. The key here is just counter, counter and counter again. Like I said, a great game for you.
Nidalee
Fair change she will go for an early invade so keep your eye out for that. Nidalee has insanely fast clear speed so can be a real pain. To win this match you wanna keep good vision in her jungle but be careful because her early game is A LOT better than yours. Once you've hit 6 and got some items under your belt you can start jumping her or her team to start your snowball and then come late game you should be laughing if you played the early game right.
Nocturne
An AD assassin just like you. Unfortunately vision won't do much for counter ganking thanks to his level 6. Your early games aren't too different from each other so wait until you're 6 and can assassinate then the game should be yours so long as you keep yourself ahead and kill him as much as you can.
Quinn
Highly mobile with a good early game and high burst. Get as much vision down as you can to keep track of where she is heading. Towards the late game you want to engage once she has just lost her bird form so cannot escape. She will build damage items so is just another carry to kill if you're fast to stop her from reacting.
Rek'Sai
Pain in the early game and bigger pain in the late game. Has a lot of movement and gank options so your best bet is to outfarm as you can clear much faster and keep your kills coming wherever the opportunity arises.
Shaco
Shaco is a very polar champion. He's either gonna go off and kill everyone or fall flat and kill no-one. He will almost always invade so try shaking things up a bit and see if you can't find out which camp he starts so you can keep away. As the game gets later on he starts falling off and you just keep scaling up so go in for the kill once you're absolutely certain you can assassinate him with your combo.
Shyvana
Great duelist so try not to 1v1 if you can avoid it. Feel free to use your bola to kite and head in to brushes and jump away if you can. If you feel you really have to kill her consider building Lord Dominik's but I would not advise this build path.
Udyr
Just no. If you come up against this nightmare you're going to die 9 time outta 10. Constantly throw out your E to keep him away because his kit is based off having higher movement speed than you. If you can avoid this match up definitely do and take something more mobile and tanky.
Vi
A somewhat similar champion to you. To win this matchup I would recommend getting an early kill anywhere you can, start building your items and then kill her before she finishes her expensive starting items. She won't be able to take you 1v1 but if she brings friends you could be in for a beating.
Warwick
Warwick's early game is his key weakness. Go for the invade as soon as you feel you can and just bully him all game. He cannot gank effectively until level 6 so use this to your advantage and get involved as much as you can while he is still desperately farming and trying to keep up.
Zac
This guy won't invade you but will start ganking really early and is going to build tank. Your best bet in this matchup is to farm, get plenty of deep vision because is Mr. gap closer and counter gank him as much as you can.
