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.
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.
Kha'Zix
jungle · Jungle invader
Starts the fight inside your own jungle, so tracking and numbers matter more than pathing.
He looks for the level-two buff invade. Leash fast and light your jungle entrances early.
Window: before two minutes
Kha'Zix wins isolated 1v1s from level 2; an early ward on your own buff entrance turns his invade into a losing fight.
