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.
Nidalee
jungle · Jungle invader
Starts the fight inside your own jungle, so tracking and numbers matter more than pathing.
She hunts early scraps in your jungle. Don't chase her, and cover your jungler's entrances.
Window: before three minutes
Nidalee wins any early fight that starts with a landed spear; invades and counter-ganks are her game, chasing her is losing.
Sejuani
jungle · Farming scaler
Clears camps rather than ganking early, which leaves the lanes free to play forward before six.
She's weak until her tank items. Skirmish early, and spread out once she hits six.
Sejuani's early duels and clears are poor; her threat is the multi-man Glacial Prison later, not the level-3 river fight.
