Rising Picks
Just like the top lane, Volibear had the biggest improvement of any jungler in our League of Legends tier list for this patch. He rose up into the low-A tier in Patch 10.12, making that his strongest role.
Dropping Picks
In Patch 10.12, the champion with the biggest fall-off from the last patch was Zac. Only falling from the S tier to A+ tier may not seem that big, but hey no other jungler dropped off hard.
Underrated Picks
Warwick is the A tier jungler with the lowest pick rate, but Rengar is again our underrated pick for this patch. He not only has a sub-2% pick rate as a B tier pick, he has the lowest pick of all jungle champions.
Overrated Picks
Nidalee and Jarvan IV both return as overrated picks in Patch 10.12, but they’re beaten out for the overrated pick by Sylas. He has the 10th-highest pick rate despite being in the C tier.
Buffed Champions
Volibear
Same song, different chorus in the jungle as top lane. The buffs pull him up to the A tier.
Hecarim
The jump from the buffs to his Rampage wasn’t quite as big in the jungle as it was in the top lane. Nevertheless, Hecarim is galloping through the jungle in a strong position as a high-B pick.
Nerfed Champions
Fiddlesticks
A minor nerf to his minion damage reduction (meaning the damage reduction is increased), was meant to hurt his ability to tax after ganks, but he’s still in the A tier.
Trundle
Big nerfs to the Troll King, both to his base stats and Frozen Domain, knocked Trundle out of the A tier and down into the B tier. The only question is how much this hurts his pro presence.
