Given the significant meta shifts with each patch, some champions start climbing up the ranks, whilst others become subpar. League of Legends is constantly changing its focus in terms of gameplay, and with frequent balance adjustments, some champions stick out more due to their kit.

With that in mind, we will take a look at the best jungle champions you can pick in 25.13 (15.13) to win as many games as possible.

Tier List Explanation

LoL Patch 25.S1.1 (15.1) Tier List - Best Top Lane Champions
Riot Games

This tier list will examine some of the most-played League of Legends champions in the jungle. Keep in mind that this is for Emerald+ divisions. 

  • S-Tier: The best champions you can use to ensure you are always victorious.
  • A-Tier: Great options but lacking just slightly either in terms of damage or utility.
  • B-Tier: Viable and reliable in most situations, you can manage rather decently.

NOTE: Although this tier list strives to be as objective as possible in terms of viability, you should not limit yourself to strictly adhere to this list, but rather experiment and see which champion feels fun to play with.

S-Tier Jungle Champions

Shaco
Shaco

Shaco has returned to terrorize his victims through stealing camps and constantly ganking enemy lanes. This trickster is once again extremely viable but you will need to be greedy to achieve success. 

Viego
Viego

Viego is back on track to being a very versatile and strong jungler as the meta is shifting towards more skirmishes and claiming objectives. Viego can easily pop off once he gets a couple of resets.

Kha'Zix
Kha'Zix

Kha'Zix is a great assassin pick, especially against a squishier comp, as your added mobility and stealth can be of great help to your team.

Ekko
Ekko

Ekko is bonking his way to the top with a pretty decent clear time and great AP damage, making him a must-have for skirmishing comps.

Kayn
Kayn

Kayn is making a comeback as the game now allows for players to more easily influence your match either through heavy farming or constantly ganking and providing pressure to lanes.

Nidalee
Nidalee

Despite Nidalee being a pro play staple, you can still find her in solo queue due to the great damage she offers and clear speed that allows you to roam the map incredibly fast.

Pantheon
Pantheon

Pantheon is massive both in ranked and professional play, offering damage, map-wide coverage and overall amazing stats for a team lacking AD damage.

Lee Sin
Lee Sin

Lee Sin can be very impactful, especially when getting leads early into the game so if you want to channel your inner InSec, then look no further.

A-Tier Jungle Champions

Naafiri
Naafiri

After Riot Games were able to adjust her kit to better suit her playstyle, she has been popping off due to great item scaling and all-in potential. 

Wukong
Wukong

Wukong is a great pick due to his team fighting and relatively good mobility in skirmishes.

Zac
Zac

Zac is a reliable tank and AP damage dealer that has great avenues of approach due to his E as well built-in sustain for prolonged team fights.

Vi
Vi

Vi is a great dive champion that you can pair with a strong mid laner and effectively lock down crucial targets during the laning phase and team fights. Although Vi can struggle in terms of clear speed, her kit makes her a great option for skirmish-heavy teams.

Hecarim
Hecarim

Hecarim is a staple jungler so if you are looking to channel your inner Dantes, then make sure to enjoy the ride.

Nocturne
Nocturne

Nocturne has fallen off a bit but he still remains a valuable champion that can easily pair up with an engage team to find success in team fights and decimate squishy carries.

Xin Zhao
Xin Zhao

Xin Zhao is a well-rounded jungler that can manage incredibly well whilst also being a great late game frontline by soaking up a lot of damage through his ult.

Kindred
Kindred

Kindred is incredibly snowbally but you sure as hell will have a lot of fun playing her once you get stacking her passive.

B-Tier Jungle Champions

Lillia
Lillia

Lillia is not as strong as most players might expect her to be, and yet she offers some great CC in team fights and great clear speeds.

Rammus
Rammus

Despite the substantial changes to Rammus, he is still relatively decent but it might take a patch or two for players to find a new and effective way to optimize his build path and clears.

Amumu
Amumu

Amumu is your go-to reliable engage tank that is very easy to pilot at the cost of suffering against agile enemies.

Poppy
Poppy

Poppy is here to stay due to her great engage denial and zoning tools, making her quite the valuable champion to have come late game.
