Hello everyone. My name is Alias.
"I started playing League of Legends since Season 1. I played with an analytical perspective for 2 years and am now playing competitively in Season 3. I currently play Jungler for MetaBreakers."
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
Champions who excel at being a Tank/Support Jungler have:- Sustain (Shield, Heal, High Regen)
- Multiple CC (At least 1 Hard CC)
- High Utility/Mobility
- *Support Spells

Semi-Carry
Champions who excel at being a Semi-Carry Jungler have:- Pseudo Sustain (Shield, Heal, High Regen)
- Pseudo Tank Attributes (Strong Health/Armor/Magic Resist Scaling)
- At least 1 Soft/Hard CC
- High Offensive Power
- Gap Closer(s)

Carry
Champions who excel at being a Carry Jungler have:- Self-Steroid (AS,MS,Damage)
- At least 1 Soft/Hard CC.
- High Offensive Power
- Strong Offensive Scaling (AS/Damage/Abilities)

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.
