Early Jungle Plans:

Alternatively, get , level 1, and sneak in there alone. Or for an invade, or riskless start clearing on your own side or enemies' top side.

With , you can place three early boxes to clear without needing a leash. Get one fast camp with 4 boxes, without . Or have 2 boxes by / and 1 box by the corresponding camp, smiting the . Go promode with -starts and move the lone box to any other camp, smiting from over the wall by mid tower if the chosen camp lays across midlane. Even sacrifice , consider , to have it at the enemies' by it being outside the trigger-range in the corner. also clears without smiting, by the lone box afterwards and min. 1 auto-attack, by it always aggroing you walking into one at the edge of its leash-range. Placed, not first, next to the wall towards the river to go into the opposing side, or placed in the to go into the corresponding side, with one from over the wall to get into the mirrored side, with one either in the south slightly left following three lines, or in the north slightly down and right in the right circle allowing one over the wall pushed up placed from the torch. Or 3 boxes and min. 3 auto-attacks. / spawns 12 seconds later, so don't put the first clearing box at it, and separate a second box from it to give more time. My fourth box usually ends up at a camp. Overcommit to transform by 21:49, and when the enemy jungler's does.

Pathing to level 2 mid or the enemy jungler, with or without , is super effective. Sidelanes here leave you invadable, yet is also effective in winning hard, or otherwise important, matchups. Do the enemies' plus / in consolation, only to take it out on a poor / or lane farmer.

Joining the herd in normal level 3 or 4 clears is better for other champions than . You get off to a better start, and learn more, if you get creative. Which matchups are on the map is important, and taking the normal camp next to where you start respawns it earlier if you want to full-clear after a gank, but gives a longer path to walk. In cases where you get pressured hard before spawn, or when having , it might be necessary. A neutral camp's reward, and bulkiness, depends on the average level of champions when they spawn. Letting you farm only one normal camp on your side to work your magic, leaving the other 3 as heals. Quickly clearing your / is a defensive stance, while / is an offensive stance.

Pathing to level 3, via /, into /, into /, will still leave time for catching the enemy jungler, even if you gank a lane on your way over. On spotting a leash or an invade, move the third box over to the second camp to have 2 there, and otherwise have 2 at the first camp.

Pathing-choices alternate with the gamestate, so a flexible route worth mentioning is starting /, into the enemies' , if it's not there to /, into your two , into , into / again. This should leave you 1 camp, or 2-3 minions, away from level 4. Openings for an extra camp, or a gank, are after your first .

Counter jungle, farm, gank.

Counter jungle, gank, tax.

Counter gank, farm, gank!

Lather, rinse, repeat.

You can solo level 3 after a back, or level 4 if healthy. Three points in is then beneficial. s give great goods. Play minds easily with the stealth applied lingering. Keep wielding to get objectives, oppress through , using spare charges either when two are obtained bringing monsters to sub-30% , for double smiting epic monsters to solo them, in fights, or to push cannons later on. Have your adc be at least level 13 before claiming soul.

Tips & Tricks:

Drop of a box on when walking by after getting an item or so to farm a half every other time. Maybe you'll have to give the big one an auto-attack plus . Eventually, laying closer to the base for wall-traversers, can be farmed this way too, with the first small ones dying from two extra damage-instances early on. and are the only neutral camps inside a square, drawn on the map, with vertices on the , so prioritize those.

Using to pass over some thin walls is helpful. E.g. behind the pit, towards the , and behind the pit, into a crack, by the camps. Or across base gates and base walls in between, who are slightly narrower than on the outside. View mid tower ranges in practice tool before attempting to pass over by the inner tower. Letting your box tank a shot, or even past.

ZxNooboXez placed too far behind to activate can be triggered by another ing towards it.

In case you didn't know, voidborn emerge at 20:14, and shareable emerge when a second is slain, revealing which elemental rift is chosen. So invade on the enemies, tracking their -timers to around 6:15 and 7, into ca. 12, 17, 22, 27 minutes. Just prioritise . Now you know.

Using between ' first and third auto-attack, and stacking or beforehand, permanently gives the attack speed bonus to the clone for its full duration, while can double-stack afterward. And being an ability hit, its death stacks 's passive and spell effects, while its auto-attacks apply 's slow if it's off cooldown.

While taking an important epic or , try to stand in front of their HP bar to make steals more difficult.

When chased, walk up to a wall, use back into the enemies' jungle to farm it, and watch them over the wall :3

The cooldown of begins once stealth is broken, with e.g. a . While for , it begins straight away. And the clone gives some gold, and stacks, with no reset.

A clone's tether-range is ca. one screen-length away. So get comfortable with reappearing an almost exploded clone inside the enemy team, while you are still stealthed. The most of the time when there are two s for the enemies to choose from, the one that appeared first is the clone. In higher tiers of play, alternating between normal ults, and ulting in the fog of war, then stealthing in and breaking your stealth, before walking the clone out of the tether-range, can really throw the enemies of. Dishing out damage is often more important, nonetheless, your spawning clone decides to stand still for a quarter of a second a quarter of the time, especially against epic monsters. A restart is made by altering where it's attackmoving. And this can be imitated by you by pressing the stop button when ulting, or when your stealth duration expires, before walking the clone out of the tether-range x) Beware, may follow.

An Item Synergy Chapter

Having boxes do extra damage from , or apart from by other damage during the , doesn't work. Still, they apply e.g. 's . Anyway, your clone keeps already attained energized and ember stacks. Gains delayed spell shields. And 's cooldown is for you as normal on usage, while for the clone, it's counted upon spawning. No stacks are kept, neither does it gain nor active boosts. Do note that it spawns with the out-of-combat type, with its 5-second timeframe for staying in-combat.

You can have and , and somewhat , in combat. Then within the timewindow, sell them and get back into combat again, in order to keep the ramping passives for the remainder of the combat encounter. Yet that requires a lot of gold and a fight near your own nexus.
