Introduction to the Jungle

Welcome to the jungle! This role is unique because you are not confined to a single lane. Your job is to farm neutral monster camps for gold and experience, and use your freedom to influence the state of the lanes through ganking.

What is Ganking?

Ganking is the act of surprising an enemy laner. By creating a temporary numbers advantage (e.g., a 2v1 in the top lane), you can help your teammate secure a kill, force the enemy to use their summoner spells, or simply push them out of lane, causing them to lose gold and experience.

Pro Tip: The best time to gank is when the enemy laner is pushed up far from the safety of their own turret.
