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 farming scaler champions in this lane: Clears camps rather than ganking early, which leaves the lanes free to play forward before six.
Ivern
jungle · Farming scaler
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.
Nocturne
jungle · Farming scaler
He barely ganks before six. Push early, then hug tower the second he hits ult.
Nocturne junglers full-clear to six, then Paranoia deletes overextended lanes; early aggression is free, post-6 overextension is not.
