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.
Viego
jungle · Farming scaler
Clears camps rather than ganking early, which leaves the lanes free to play forward before six.
He full-clears for tempo. Trade freely early, but ward before his second clear finishes.
Viego paths for a fast full clear, then ganks off the reset; the danger window opens around 3:30, not level two.
