What decides the jungle
A tactical read of the jungle matchup, written from LaneDiff's champion notes: what each champion threatens, and the one thing to do about it before three minutes. It is analysis, not a match sample, so there is no win rate on this page.
Both are early ganker champions in this lane: Hunts kills at levels two to four, so the first wards and a safe wave decide the lane.
Briar
jungle · Early ganker
She dives in a frenzy past your minions. Ward at 2:30 and hold CC for her leap.
Window: before three minutes
Briar's W self-cast commits her fully, so one held stun during Blood Frenzy turns her level-3 gank into a shutdown.
Warwick
jungle · Early ganker
He smells blood below half health. Reset or heal before he crosses the map for you.
Window: before four minutes
Warwick's W tracks any enemy under 50% HP with bonus speed; staying topped up removes his gank pathing entirely.
