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.
Elise
jungle · Early ganker
Hunts kills at levels two to four, so the first wards and a safe wave decide the lane.
Her level-three gank is elite. Ward river by 2:45 and sidestep the cocoon.
Window: before three minutes
Cocoon plus rappel makes Elise's level-3 gank one of the strongest in the game; river wards at 2:45 buy the dodge window.
Ivern
jungle · Farming scaler
Clears camps rather than ganking early, which leaves the lanes free to play forward before six.
Ivern free-farms and rarely ganks early. Shove your lane, and don't chase into Daisy later.
Ivern's marking clear leaves lanes alone pre-6; his threat is Daisy plus brush placement in mid-game fights, not early ganks.
