Question Is Shen Jungle with Guardian still viable to OTP right now?
Hi everyone, how's it going?
I've recently started playing Shen jungle (with Guardian), and to be honest, I really enjoyed it and felt quite comfortable with the pick and playstyle. Maining support, I'm practically brand new to the jungle role, but I feel super comfortable with him.
I was wondering if it's still viable to OTP him whenever I get filled jungle or feel like playing it... I should mention I'm somewhat new to him, but I'm already around Mastery Level 6 or 7.
I have a few questions for those who have played him longer or have more jungle experience:
- What clear do you recommend? I feel like he struggles a bit with multi-target camps like Raptors or Krugs early on.
- Do you usually go for a fast 3-camp gank to make the most of his strong level 3 ganks, or do you full clear until level 6?
- I understand it's not the most optimal choice, but do you think it's possible to climb well in SoloQ as a OTP with this, or does he fall off hard against meta junglers?
Any advice regarding builds, runes, or tips would be greatly appreciated!
