And when they're top against me they always try to take red or gols and I always kill them. Sad day for the dragons. Yarp. Imma have to retire shyvana I think. Any opinions on what I should abuse in jungle for a few weeks before some ahole streamer ruins it for me again? Mastering new Jax seems like it could be fun. Or I could try to actually perfect TF. Thoughts? Jungle fizz?

Oh I'm gonna buy him anyway. I always play champions based on fun rather than the current fotm. I was just asking what others thought about him and why isn't seen much nowadays.

he is not seen a lot because he is not as good as other champs at the moment, though he certainly has his strengths.
He's kinda binary at top lane. If he can land his E spell consistently then he is good, if the other champ can kite him or last hit from far he is not that good. He is an okay counterpick against irelia, for example.

How do people deal with Yorick? No matter what I try doesn't work, every time he just crushes me...

So, TL, since I probably won't get to test jungle Shyvanna much before next tuesday, which junglers would you advice me to try out?
Random stuff about my playstyle: - I like mobility, as in ability to get in and out of the enemy's jungle in the blink of an eye (see Trundle's contaminate, or Maokai E->W to jump walls) - I almost only pick "autonomous" champs, as in able to fend by themselves (so no Amumu, Fiddle, or other stuff that may need particular attention). I seek this goal by generally two means: beefiness (but most junglers are anyway) and/or being slippery (Morgana's BS, Pantheon's ult if I can't just kill them, Irelia's passive, Trundle's pillar, Swain's cc, etc.) - I can do without cc but that'd be a big plus - I also like being active (the reason why I didn't start with WW, who seemed to passively rush 6 ; otoh, Trundle and Maokai have spells that are potentially game-changing during teamfight, as well as jungle presence very early) - I'm not picking up Rammus, at least while using French sounds
From what I collected stuff like Lee Sin, Olaf, Shyvanna would stick, but Shyv isn't going to be available the upcoming weeks, and I'll wait next LS free week as I didn't do well when I first tried him. Isn't Olaf a risky jungler as he gets quite low on his clears, too?

What about Udyr? You can steal enemy camps very fast with Phoenix.

I think jungle Jax is a great choice. He clears reasonably fast, and has pretty good ganks. His new ult gives him tons of killing power even without items, and later on you can still take lane farm and carry. He reminds me a bit of jungle Olaf in that respect except with much better ganks.

olaf isn't really at risk, you can even start dorans blade and clear VERY fast without going below i think about half, if that's too risky for you open cloth and 2/3 pots or something

Always those people who make accounts at every site they've visited once .. ^_^
Took me like 3 years of lurking till I dared to make an account, hell, I only started posting a lot in the last 2 years or so. Damn you, EvE and League of Legends.

Try Yi. I think he's seriously underrated in the new jungle. I picked him up again in some normals not too long ago and his clearspeed is up there with the god-tier of Shyv/Udyr, also he massively benefits from same things as Shyv does (mass jungle farm, stronk counterganks).

Why play yi when you can play noct, clears real fucking fast aswell, ganks better, can initiate, can tank, can assassinate can do whatever. If you like yi more then sure, but if you're looking for a new jungler noct is better than yi.

He ganks better. That's about it. Yi clears faster, can initiate, can tank, can assassinate, can do whatever.
Wriggles -> GB -> BT -> GA. Wriggles -> Triforce -> Tankshit. Wriggles -> Fatmogs.

How do you beat a fed Morgana? I was Vayne, and couldn't get in range of her to 4 shot her without her snare taking out half my hp then the rest of their team jumping on me. Keep in mind that my team wasn't the best and would target what ever they wanted, but would Banshee's Veil work?
