INTRODUCTION

Pros / Cons
Pros / Cons
Pros
+ Great Initiator
+ Fast at Clearing
+ Wall Jumps
+ Level 6 Ganks are Godlike
+ Great Against AD Champions
+ Manly
Jarvan IV is pretty much known for his godlike initiations when you E/Q Combo then immediately use your ultimate, it allows little reaction time and it will give you some "private time" with the stranded AD Carry. With his E/Q combo, he can also clear the jungle really quickly with mana. This is because of his passive, and the fact that he can go through walls. This also makes it easier to sneak in a dragon, or stealing a buff. His ultimate will either grant you a kill, or a burn of an escape at level 6, as most champions won't be strong enough to sit through the damage at that point. His armor buffs and utility also makes him great at going in on the AD Carry, with a little help from another teammate, you can effectively kill him, or knock him out of the teamfight.
Cons
- No Surivbility
- Low Base Mana
- Ultimate can turn against you
- People Blame the Jungler for Everything
- Not the Best Dueler
- Shield isn't Very Effective
You pretty much need a life steal item like Wriggle's Lantern or Vampiric Scepter in order to stay in your jungle for a long period of time. He doesn't have much mana to work with, which makes him not able to spam his skills in the jungle as much as somebody would like. His ultimate can effectively kill your team if you cast it improperly. If you do poor, chances are the entire team will blame you for everything that goes wrong. On top of that, he isn't the best of duelers, but can stay away from them in most cases. His Shield doesn't scale with anything besides enemy champions, so its pretty useless in the jungle, and is only really effective when in the middle of the enemy team.
