Lee Sin spamming?

I've been jungling a lot lately as Lee Sin, and I can usually do a pretty good job with him. However, sometimes I feel as though in a fight, I'm using my skills wrong.

I usually use Q to initiate, and then immediately E twice so I can cripple the melee champions. I then shield myself with W and use the other W right away, giving me the armor and other stats. After this, I'm usually energy starved, and it's sometimes hard to continue killing effectively.

Should I kill players the same way I jungle? Aka, use a skill, hit twice to use my passive, use it again, etc. Or is that too slow?

Also, how often should I be ganking as Lee Sin, or any jungler for that matter? I've been told I don't gank enough, but I've been told also not to force ganks.

Lee Sin is by far one of the best gankers in the game, what with his high early game damage, mobility, and CC. My main junglers are Lee and Tryn, both non-mana users that can use an evasive route.

1. Do double golems.
2. Gank at 2:05, you will be level 2, the enemies level 1.

This is almost a guaranteed way, if you nor your allies fail terribly, to pick up FB or at least make them blow a summoner spell, both of which give big advantages to your allies.

Then, pickup wraiths, get to lvl 3, gank mid.

Wolves, base, red, then gank. Don't even worry about jungling anymore when you hit 4 as Lee.

gank gank gank gank gank gank gank gank gank.

I can't stress it enough.

If your allies don't need ganks, go counter jungle.

You should forget about the minor camps after level 4, just grab red when it's up, and DON'T TAKE BLUE. Give it to your mid AP carry at around 5:00 or 6:00.

I can't stress this enough with Lee: practice your skillshots and gank like a **********er.

As for mana, you needa make sure you know what you want to spend it on. Most of your damage is from your Q and your physical DPS, not your E; as such, you generally want to save E for the utility: the slow and reveal. If there is an enemy stealth, use it when they go into stealth to reveal them; if people are gaining on allies/escaping, E E them.

As for your W, same concept. Save it for clutch situations and for mobility, since it isn't much of a shield. Your primary use for your W should be to shield jump to allies to get in the fight/get out, and to heal up after a fight. If you have the energy, go ahead and W W in the middle of a fight to heal up a bit too.

But, generally, you wanna save your W and E for when you NEED it, and open with your Q and kick. You shouldn't have energy issues that way.

Also, keep in mind, after you cast something, your passive lets you regen some quick energy on your next two attacks.

Lee Sin's ganks are insane, for sure. When ganking you don't always want to initiate with Q, save it for the flash. Walk in, E, E, attack and then Q if they pop a summoner's.

In teamfights you'll want to be attacking as much as possible when ganking, however the time frame is generally pretty small so get an attack in when you can. You'll run out of energy if you're not attacking, just like any caster has cooldowns or mana restrictions.

In team fights I tend to only attack once, but it still drains quite a lot of energy, if the fight lasts a long time, however you'll be oom. Also as some of these people have said before, Don't you E as an offensive ability, but rather as a utility, for escaping enemies, or stealthers. Your W should be used to escape, or heal.
