Since Spragels didn’t mention it, the jungle buff timers run on a one minute cooldown. So if you take a buff at 9:42, it’ll respawn at 8:42. This is why you’ll see experienced junglers do the buffs first before the Baltoy. The sooner you put your buff spawns on cooldown the sooner they’ll respawn. That way, you’re not left waiting for the second rotation. While, yes, you can use the icon near the corner of your screen as a timer, it can become inaccurate when you take the enemy jungler’s buffs after winning the 1v1 since it refreshes the timer. But the basic logistics is that, ideally, you want to grab your buffs twice before the 8 minute center birds.
The most important advice: If you like to play jungle, and one teammate took it, don't bother him! Play another role. You don't like when the team mess up your rotation, so DON'T DO IT YOURSELF!
@@ea8702 so true man In my first game only I already told my team that I will go to the centre area but a swinub ( I can't believe a defender)and a ralts enterd into the jungle and I had to go to the top area to farm for my absol. P.S. We won the game though

The spectating examples were a great addition to the video, I know this is just a basics vid but I think it’s worth mentioning that as the game progresses some your allies can benefit from clearing the jungle for exp or take one of the buffs that specifically benefit that ally like blue for sp attackers and red for the auto attackers
That's more than a back to basics video. Knowing who takes buffs and when is coordinated team play, not a "how to jungle 101" instruction. Can you imagine trying to coordinate who gets the buffs in soloq.
I ended up with zacian brainrot and I never really understood rotation. I currently main center metagross, and now I understand rotation, I've been absolutely dominating games with a negative win rate pokemon.
So here's my opinion and what I do. After killing the Xatu, immediately take the red buff. This is to prevent/punish jungle invaders because if you have the red buff on you you're auto attacks will slow the enemy's move speed. This is the only way to jungle.
Thank you for getting this out. Bad center players was a huge reason I stopped playing. So few players understand this role. Nothing gets under my skin quite like a jungler who never returns to center after the first clear.
I would have liked to hear you elaborate on late jungle. After your first 2-3 rotations imo it's fine for any teammate to grab the experience if needed. Some players lose their mind if you take any of that exp at any time in the match.
It's pretty situational, but I usually like to continue clearing so I make sure I can get level 15 for the ray fight, but if we're kind of winning and they haven't broken any goals for us to farm, I for sure don't mind teammates taking jungle
In my experience, team fights start taking place closer to mid-late game. I need all the levels I can get as the jungler before that happens. So I only get upset if raltsy boi from bottom lane marches up and steals just one of my buffs after the second spawn. I usually try to clear jungle 3-4 times before I move on and start assisting with scoring/team fights. Take all the jungle you want after that.
I know this is all personal but if u are able to clear your jungle then successfully gank on a lane it often helps to clear as much of the opposing sides jungle as possible and maybe steal a buff so that the opposing jungle is always a step behind
Very nice and useful! I would love it if you would make a tutorial/guide about stacking since I don’t really understand everything about it and what items to use even tho I hear you refrence it a lot in videos :)

He is ranking every pokemon according to their chances of stacking and/or if they DO or NOT gain value by stacking. Every entry is explained so it will cover every pokemon released up to that point.
I think you should have divided the rotation in categories depending on the strenght of the Pokémon during the first gank. If I'm playing greninja I usually choose my strongest lane, if I'm playing urshifu I prioritize my weaker lane that needs the most help. And also maybe mention the little delay on clear that you can make to ensure that you get more comeback experience
Thanks; this will help a lot. I was thinking of trying Zoroark or Dodrio since I have limited licenses, Zoroark’s on rotation, and I have a free license box with them as the most expensive, but I was getting lost in the jungle and struggling big time. I think I might prefer lane as it seems more reactive and free-flowing compared to how choreographed this is, but it’s worth trying.
A tip for non junglers, if you see your jungler hanging out in a lane for wayy to long and see that they wont be able to clear jungle before 8:05 min mark. go take some of theirs if you need to catch up and head up to the center of the map with them.
Great guide! In beggining I tend to see which members go top or bottom and lead myself to the lane that looks like it will need more support and is lacking secure (so if bottom is weak i will lead red buff and work my way down, or vice versa..its very important to know who is maining where and keep an eye on the mini map. Im still a new player, but ive found myself in the right place at the right time by using this strategy..really helps keep momentum, but nothing is full proof. Gotta read the situation, as jungle it seems more important.
Thanks for the guide! I noticed the red buff description at 0:53 has “Pokémon’s attacks to deal extra damage” in addition to the slowing effect. Unite-db only lists the slow effect as part of the buff, did they update the red buff recently?
@@echo9352 no, it does increase damage. It says so right here “Defeating it grants a buff that increases your attack damage and makes them reduce the target's movement speed”.
Very good guide on what a jungle is supposed to be doing! The matchmaking kills me in this game, no way in hell the people that are put on my team are the same rank as me lmao
So...I've been playing this game since it came out. And I'd I'm ok at it. I started maining with Aegislash when he came out (favorite pokemon and all) and I love to jungle with him. Watching your videos on emblems, builds, cool downs and stacks... now jungling!? My mind is blown. You've helped make me such a better player since I've discovered your videos. You're amazing, keep up the good work. I'd love to play some games with you someday. Yeehaw!
I take both baltoy first on the first time followed by the bus, the ball toy are quick to kill and usually give me a level or two which makes killing the buffs faster, but of course as always games where I have to alter this based on if someone's trying to invade or w/e. After the first round though I tend to leave the ball toy especially for whatever lane seems to be struggling more so on their way back to their Lane they can grab the outer baltoy for some catch up exp
Great video! Lovely to see a guide. They've understandably dropped off since the game's been out for a while but there's still a lot to learn that the game doesn't tell you. Would love to see a Jungling 201 or also how to fight! I have learned a lot of these strategies and timings when things overall are up and where to be. But aside from not overextending I don't have a lot of strategies for 1v1 or team fights, only sort of trial and error.
0:55 As far as I can tell from both unite-db and my own testing on the training dummy, Escavalier’s red buff does not provide extra damage to attacks. According to unite-db the red buff has “Basic attacks slow enemies” at “30%” Scaling, and then notes “This slow lasts 2 seconds and the duration resets upon a new application of itself. This means you can keep an enemy slowed as long as you continue basic attacking them.” So taking down Escavalier first shouldn’t really quicken the Jungle (Central) clear time, whereas Accelgor’s blue buff providing 10% cooldown reduction should if ever so slightly.
The game right now is at a stage where ranked is completely unplayable and I’m not even talking about Zacian, I’ve seen greninjas with leftovers and rocky helmet, absols with drain crown exp share, cinderaces with all 3 glasses
This was super helpful. I main scizor and jungle and I wanted to see what can I do better. I normally hit the buffs in a row, but I like your strategy of doing the bigger ones first and then going back after. I wait until I level to scizor to go help top or bottom, but this strategy seems a lot better and should help in my ranked battles. I’m ultra 3 almost at 2, but I’ve hit a plateau with that.
Ok this video is very useful and everything said in it is true but i still wanna clarify something because unless you are a mage you will almost always pick the red buff first because of invade pokemon like greedent sableye and dodrio
Hello, just wanna ask, who is/ are the mage/s that are good in the jungle? I'm a one day old player btw, turning two on March 12, 2023 at around 1:00 pm 👁️🐽👁️ 👄
@@drawsdenniel mage that are good in jungle and that should take the blue buff first are gardevoir espeon glaceon delphox gengar cramorant and mew but its less optimal since he is way better in lane in my opinion
This was so helpful, I'm good at Unite. last season i managed to make it to 3043 in rank but i didn't know u get buffs from the jungle mons i thought they were just faster levels then the lane pokemon. Last season was my first time playing, but no one ever broke down the game to me
Super helpful. As a jungler main, I hope top lane rowlets and bottom lane machops take note. Leave the jungle to the person that called it. We need those levels to provide assistance in the lanes. If y’all take the kills from the jungler, we don’t have the level or moves required to be play makers.
I'm curious for people's preferences on this: when jungling, do you typically help the lane that's already winning (give them an even bigger boost/gatekeep the enemy even more) or try to help the lane that's behind (try to help your teammates catch up)? I tend to prefer the former, as gatekeeping the enemy can be super helpful and really put them behind, but there are obvious benefits to helping a struggling lane. What're people's thoughts?
From what I've learned from watching some of the better players, you always want to go to the path where you have an easier time. (Like if you see a mime snorlax bottom and a eevee and rowlet top, I'm most likely gonna go top)
There is no absolute answer to this. It will always depends on the current situation. For example, if I already spot the bad teammate (SoloQ) I would gain no value by helping that lane, As much we could defend/stall it but we wont be likely to push. You usually want to go to whereever you are more likely to sucessfully push. Then again, what happens if you have not spot the bad teammate, or the good teammate is the one that is unlucky strugling even if its not his fault. Worst is, when you call which lane you are going to help, your allies get overconfident that you are going there way. They end up over pushing and getting KO by an ambush before you even arrive.
@@JoelAe I feel that one 💀 one member of my group is so hyper aggressive that he pushes after like 4:30 with like one other person into their second base and gets annoyed he dies But then also gets annoyed and defensive when I suggest… not doing that
Me : An underlevel ralts trying to kill the Ludicolo and jungle to level up Teammate 1 : oh my! Looks like they are having trouble killing it, lemme help them. *proceeds to take the last hit* Teammate 2 : *AFKing at base* lalala Teammate 3 and 4 : let's have a picnic in the jungle. Me, after 5 minutes in the game: still a lv 4 ralts
I think the biggest problem people have with the way they play is thinking that every match and every character is going to play and have the same timing and methods but every situation is totally different on a match to match basis
Sad that you got a Lutano game where his teammate messed up his clear. Lutano used to do a convoluted clear with Ralts that involved aggroing the Escavalier to charge closer to the Baltoy so that he could hit both with one Confusion and get out of the jungle slightly earlier.
As a 13 year league player, with similar jungle set up, let me share a thought to consider. Blue buff is great to help you clear. And red buff is great to help you gank. My path is first camp obviously. straight to blue buff. Then take the 2 smalls Then take red. This gives you the longest duration on your red buff now that you are moving onto the map to gank (attack the other side lanes) The blue buff gives you cooldown reduction for your jungle clear speed on your way to red buff so you get get to the map as soon as possible 😊 TL:DR I go blue buff to red buff. This gives faster clear with the cooldowns from blue, and longer duration of redbuff while on the map. ❤
How ever I would like to add. If you are timing your return to the jungle correctly. Your first buff runs out basically exactly when your first buff respawns and dies. So it shouldn’t matter if you don’t deviate from a perfect clear / speed run game. But we all know sometimes things happen and u end up staying on the map longer than you would like to.😅
Good advice. I take Blue first almost exclusively because move CD allows me to wipe jungle Pokemon quicker. Timing is 100% important. Far more important to ensure you're grabbing mid Swablu/Altaria at 8:00 than those Baltoy.
On the first rotation i try to keep an eye in the minimap to see where the enemies. The clean is basicly the same as yours, blue then red buff then baltoys, then if i dont see any lane struggling i wait a second to see where the enemy jungler is. If any of the lanes have vision of their jungler, i check their health bar, or if there was any KOs (ours or from the enemies), if i dont have any of that info, then i go to the lane that i guess is getting pushed back (normally they dont have vision of the wild pokes and are closer to the base. Its a bit difficult to check the minimap and their moves while you clean your farm, so if i can wait, before taking the decision on which lane to go, i go to the central area, to have access to the salack berries to run to the lanes faster
My hardest struggle is stacking in center area. If my team doesn’t push with me it’s hard to grab those KOs so I can score with the 30 points I get from farming center
got one yesterday, i was decy and zoroark try to steal all my jungle rotation and then he went in front of the enemy and don't attack. I report that player? Yes. Do they do something about that? Surely no
Both are really strong for different reasons I think. X feels more impactful because lane fights happen a lot and X is naturally tanky and can initiate while Y is really hard to jump on (which bringing Full Heal over Eject Button might be better if you're using teleport) and can secrue objectives much easier while being probably one of the safest ranged attackers. Obviously while mega'd, both do incredible dps and I really feel like both can fit any lane well.
HELLO! I'm new to this game and I'm planning to main Talonflame. Anw, Thank you for this video, it really helps a ton! Also, I love that you also showed other players' jungling pattern❤️
I clear jungle like you Spragels, and I find there is another advantage to that clear pattern. Sometimes junglers get held up in lanes for a few extra seconds and clearing the buffs first prevents situations where the buff hasn't spawned in time for center birds. When you move to birds for your team, your buff spawns and what else happens besides getting friendly invaded? xD You see this much more often for junglers with slow initial clear, like Kubfoo, who don't take both buffs first. I think its a solid mention.
A thing i hate it's when a support goes in jungle while i help them on their zone. If it's a Gardenoir i could understand, or any dps that needs the experience. But if it's a healer or support, it just gets on my nerves. You are a support for a reason, do not leave your teammate's side, you ARE of help.
I recommend if you're a "jungle main", learn to dominate lane on a different mon. Espeon dominates now along with tree, blastoise can dominate if played right and lucario is always lucario. Just have back ups in mind when someone else plays jungle and adjust your own playstyle for teammates making less than great decisions. Maybe rotate lanes with your jungle and cap a goal early if you see the other lane struggling. There's always solutions and you should be flexible in your map positioning. @spragels i would recommend a video on playing field advantages better. There's situations where your team is either up or down 1-2 goal zones and knowing how to protect your furthest goal better or when to abandon it.
The best advice I think you could give someone is to gank the lane that have the higher MMR players, you can know that by the other of the player from left to right were the one that is at the Left have the highest MMR and the one at the right the lowest, except if you play with duos or trios them is kind they'll be first.
I usually steal enemy farm after the first respawn then around the same time birds in the middle pop up if my team doesnt steal my buffs by the time i get back i hit level 9 right before the 7 minute mark
I call it The C Rotation, I usually predetermine based on who's lane matchup is worse or better or if they're getting overun. So if top is worse off dealing with mamo snorlax I start with blue buff, bals and red buff. But an exception to this is i go 'N-ish' rotation if theres a jungle invade then clear those buffs first.
I usually don't like to get jungle, but when I do my route is based in the type of attack my pkm. If is a Atk type I will go: Xatu>Top Baltoy>Red Buff>Bot Baltoy>Blue Buff. If is a SpAtk type I will go: Xatu>Bot Baltoy>Blue Buff>Top Baltoy>Red Buff. But if I see a Greedent or a Sableye with X Speed I will go from the Xatu to the priority buff then the 2nd buff.
What do you do when your team keeps pinging you "check it out" BECAUSE you're getting your buffs and not helping a specific fight? If getting buff is so important, shouldn't the majority of players respect that, and not harass ping you for doing your jungle?
I love your channel and all the great info you put out. I've learned so much from you it's really helped me. Could you do a back to the basics series where you talk about how to play different roles and lanes. I'm still such a noob and would love to know how to play better.
This video really helped me understand jungling better If possible could you make a video on stacking and other imp things one should do would help a lot Love your content
Buffs are on Timers, get them last, and go for the buff that will benefit you the most in your 1st fight. This is what decides my 1st mid lane rotation of the game.
For me, it depends on the laners. If the top laners is weak I'd go top baltoy -> bottom baltoy -> blue buff -> red buff -> top lane. The opposite is true for bot lane.
I usually go for a "Z" rotation sometimes it will flip depending on the situation in either lane. I notice nobody pick jungle or they just steal farm. I make sure to keep an eye on the lane and prepare for a possible rotation in case someone falls behind

Gotta read the situation, as jungle it seems more important.
I went from beginner to rank 1 with this strat. Doctors hate me
I hate it when your jungler never goes back to its jungle after the first clear
@@juliuscasar7202what if they werent stacking
Sableye players be like: write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN!
Thanks for the guide! I noticed the red buff description at 0:53 has “Pokémon’s attacks to deal extra damage” in addition to the slowing effect. Unite-db only lists the slow effect as part of the buff, did they update the red buff recently?
No, Red buff doesn't increase your damage at all. Is just there in the description
@@echo9352 no, it does increase damage. It says so right here “Defeating it grants a buff that increases your attack damage and makes them reduce the target's movement speed”.
@@johnbonjov1491 Nope, mathcord has proven it, and you can go test yourself, it doesn't do extra damage
I'm assuming that's a leftover from the remoat map where I believe it did happen? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Very good guide on what a jungle is supposed to be doing! The matchmaking kills me in this game, no way in hell the people that are put on my team are the same rank as me lmao
Well thank you very much! This video has changed my whole game not just the centre path. I have a better understanding of everything
So...I've been playing this game since it came out. And I'd I'm ok at it. I started maining with Aegislash when he came out (favorite pokemon and all) and I love to jungle with him. Watching your videos on emblems, builds, cool downs and stacks... now jungling!? My mind is blown. You've helped make me such a better player since I've discovered your videos. You're amazing, keep up the good work. I'd love to play some games with you someday. Yeehaw!
Usually after I got all my jungle exp i would just infiltrate the enemy's jungle and " help " them by " borrowing " there jungle exp
I don't even know how you did this without 3 hats. Inconceivable.
almost impossible
I take both baltoy first on the first time followed by the bus, the ball toy are quick to kill and usually give me a level or two which makes killing the buffs faster, but of course as always games where I have to alter this based on if someone's trying to invade or w/e. After the first round though I tend to leave the ball toy especially for whatever lane seems to be struggling more so on their way back to their Lane they can grab the outer baltoy for some catch up exp
Also you should say, jungle should NOT take the mobs from the lanes, especially if team mates are struggling, take it only if enemy is contesting it.
If your team is already struggling, then farm is going to the enemy team if mid doesn't take it. Feed your carry and you'll win.
Actually, you should watch a lot of videos if you're playing Scyther or Scizor. They're extremely situational.
Great video! Lovely to see a guide. They've understandably dropped off since the game's been out for a while but there's still a lot to learn that the game doesn't tell you. Would love to see a Jungling 201 or also how to fight! I have learned a lot of these strategies and timings when things overall are up and where to be. But aside from not overextending I don't have a lot of strategies for 1v1 or team fights, only sort of trial and error.
Oh yes! As a returning player. Would love to see more back to basics vids. Or updated build walkthroughs from emblems to items.
It sucks when you meet people online and not picking a path, then three pokemon go jungler all together
0:55
As far as I can tell from both unite-db and my own testing on the training dummy, Escavalier’s red buff does not provide extra damage to attacks. According to unite-db the red buff has “Basic attacks slow enemies” at “30%” Scaling, and then notes “This slow lasts 2 seconds and the duration resets upon a new application of itself. This means you can keep an enemy slowed as long as you continue basic attacking them.”
So taking down Escavalier first shouldn’t really quicken the Jungle (Central) clear time, whereas Accelgor’s blue buff providing 10% cooldown reduction should if ever so slightly.
Thanks for this video because it’s observed how many people who call for central have no idea what they are doing and it’s so annoying lol
The game right now is at a stage where ranked is completely unplayable and I’m not even talking about Zacian, I’ve seen greninjas with leftovers and rocky helmet, absols with drain crown exp share, cinderaces with all 3 glasses
Thank you, I can now escape veteran hell with this.
This was super helpful. I main scizor and jungle and I wanted to see what can I do better. I normally hit the buffs in a row, but I like your strategy of doing the bigger ones first and then going back after. I wait until I level to scizor to go help top or bottom, but this strategy seems a lot better and should help in my ranked battles. I’m ultra 3 almost at 2, but I’ve hit a plateau with that.
Ok this video is very useful and everything said in it is true but i still wanna clarify something because unless you are a mage you will almost always pick the red buff first because of invade pokemon like greedent sableye and dodrio
Hello, just wanna ask, who is/ are the mage/s that are good in the jungle? I'm a one day old player btw, turning two on March 12, 2023 at around 1:00 pm
👁️🐽👁️
👄
Invades are very rare and even if it happens in most cases it's better to lose the orange buff than the blue buff since CD reduction is always good.
@@drawsdenniel mage that are good in jungle and that should take the blue buff first are gardevoir espeon glaceon delphox gengar cramorant and mew but its less optimal since he is way better in lane in my opinion
@@MusicComet well it is very rare but in case of it happening the slow effect of the red buff will help k.o the invader
@@Bot-tle4 thank youuu💌💌💌💌
This was so helpful, I'm good at Unite.
last season i managed to make it to 3043 in rank
but i didn't know u get buffs from the jungle mons
i thought they were just faster levels then the lane pokemon.
Last season was my first time playing, but no one ever broke down the game to me
Kinda confuse for lineups for this if you were Attacker but Jungler
Ty for making this type of video. Hopefully more ppl start practicing this and we can have better games
Thanks for making this kind video about jungle
(pokemon unite) I'm having hard time carrying my team/jungle. Helps a lot.
Super helpful. As a jungler main, I hope top lane rowlets and bottom lane machops take note. Leave the jungle to the person that called it. We need those levels to provide assistance in the lanes. If y’all take the kills from the jungler, we don’t have the level or moves required to be play makers.
I'm curious for people's preferences on this: when jungling, do you typically help the lane that's already winning (give them an even bigger boost/gatekeep the enemy even more) or try to help the lane that's behind (try to help your teammates catch up)? I tend to prefer the former, as gatekeeping the enemy can be super helpful and really put them behind, but there are obvious benefits to helping a struggling lane. What're people's thoughts?
From what I've learned from watching some of the better players, you always want to go to the path where you have an easier time. (Like if you see a mime snorlax bottom and a eevee and rowlet top, I'm most likely gonna go top)
There is no absolute answer to this. It will always depends on the current situation.
For example, if I already spot the bad teammate (SoloQ) I would gain no value by helping that lane, As much we could defend/stall it but we wont be likely to push. You usually want to go to whereever you are more likely to sucessfully push. Then again, what happens if you have not spot the bad teammate, or the good teammate is the one that is unlucky strugling even if its not his fault.
Worst is, when you call which lane you are going to help, your allies get overconfident that you are going there way. They end up over pushing and getting KO by an ambush before you even arrive.
@@JoelAe I feel that one 💀 one member of my group is so hyper aggressive that he pushes after like 4:30 with like one other person into their second base and gets annoyed he dies
But then also gets annoyed and defensive when I suggest… not doing that
Me : An underlevel ralts trying to kill the Ludicolo and jungle to level up
Teammate 1 : oh my! Looks like they are having trouble killing it, lemme help them. *proceeds to take the last hit*
Teammate 2 : *AFKing at base* lalala
Teammate 3 and 4 : let's have a picnic in the jungle.
Me, after 5 minutes in the game: still a lv 4 ralts
Don’t play raltz in lane?
I think the biggest problem people have with the way they play is thinking that every match and every character is going to play and have the same timing and methods but every situation is totally different on a match to match basis
Sad that you got a Lutano game where his teammate messed up his clear. Lutano used to do a convoluted clear with Ralts that involved aggroing the Escavalier to charge closer to the Baltoy so that he could hit both with one Confusion and get out of the jungle slightly earlier.
Real refreshing to just get back to basic jungling procedure
As a 13 year league player, with similar jungle set up, let me share a thought to consider.
Blue buff is great to help you clear. And red buff is great to help you gank.
My path is first camp obviously. straight to blue buff.
Then take the 2 smalls
Then take red.
This gives you the longest duration on your red buff now that you are moving onto the map to gank (attack the other side lanes)
The blue buff gives you cooldown reduction for your jungle clear speed on your way to red buff so you get get to the map as soon as possible 😊
TL:DR
I go blue buff to red buff. This gives faster clear with the cooldowns from blue, and longer duration of redbuff while on the map. ❤
How ever I would like to add. If you are timing your return to the jungle correctly. Your first buff runs out basically exactly when your first buff respawns and dies.
So it shouldn’t matter if you don’t deviate from a perfect clear / speed run game.
But we all know sometimes things happen and u end up staying on the map longer than you would like to.😅
I'm pretty good at jungling but it's still nice to have more tip videos
Good advice. I take Blue first almost exclusively because move CD allows me to wipe jungle Pokemon quicker. Timing is 100% important. Far more important to ensure you're grabbing mid Swablu/Altaria at 8:00 than those Baltoy.
Ironic at your 8 min vid time mark is when Scolded went back to mid NPCs 😂
On the first rotation i try to keep an eye in the minimap to see where the enemies. The clean is basicly the same as yours, blue then red buff then baltoys, then if i dont see any lane struggling i wait a second to see where the enemy jungler is.
If any of the lanes have vision of their jungler, i check their health bar, or if there was any KOs (ours or from the enemies), if i dont have any of that info, then i go to the lane that i guess is getting pushed back (normally they dont have vision of the wild pokes and are closer to the base.
Its a bit difficult to check the minimap and their moves while you clean your farm, so if i can wait, before taking the decision on which lane to go, i go to the central area, to have access to the salack berries to run to the lanes faster
My hardest struggle is stacking in center area. If my team doesn’t push with me it’s hard to grab those KOs so I can score with the 30 points I get from farming center
Stealing buffs or jungle farm to feed the enemy team is a Pokémon Unite special
got one yesterday, i was decy and zoroark try to steal all my jungle rotation and then he went in front of the enemy and don't attack. I report that player? Yes. Do they do something about that? Surely no
Was looking for this. I used to grab buffs once and went back at random after helping a lane
Both are really strong for different reasons I think. X feels more impactful because lane fights happen a lot and X is naturally tanky and can initiate while Y is really hard to jump on (which bringing Full Heal over Eject Button might be better if you're using teleport) and can secrue objectives much easier while being probably one of the safest ranged attackers. Obviously while mega'd, both do incredible dps and I really feel like both can fit any lane well.
HELLO! I'm new to this game and I'm planning to main Talonflame. Anw, Thank you for this video, it really helps a ton! Also, I love that you also showed other players' jungling pattern❤️
I clear jungle like you Spragels, and I find there is another advantage to that clear pattern. Sometimes junglers get held up in lanes for a few extra seconds and clearing the buffs first prevents situations where the buff hasn't spawned in time for center birds. When you move to birds for your team, your buff spawns and what else happens besides getting friendly invaded? xD
You see this much more often for junglers with slow initial clear, like Kubfoo, who don't take both buffs first. I think its a solid mention.
A thing i hate it's when a support goes in jungle while i help them on their zone. If it's a Gardenoir i could understand, or any dps that needs the experience. But if it's a healer or support, it just gets on my nerves. You are a support for a reason, do not leave your teammate's side, you ARE of help.
I recommend if you're a "jungle main", learn to dominate lane on a different mon. Espeon dominates now along with tree, blastoise can dominate if played right and lucario is always lucario. Just have back ups in mind when someone else plays jungle and adjust your own playstyle for teammates making less than great decisions. Maybe rotate lanes with your jungle and cap a goal early if you see the other lane struggling. There's always solutions and you should be flexible in your map positioning. @spragels i would recommend a video on playing field advantages better. There's situations where your team is either up or down 1-2 goal zones and knowing how to protect your furthest goal better or when to abandon it.
The best advice I think you could give someone is to gank the lane that have the higher MMR players, you can know that by the other of the player from left to right were the one that is at the Left have the highest MMR and the one at the right the lowest, except if you play with duos or trios them is kind they'll be first.
Can you do one for how to fight at Ray too?
Basic pokemon unite fact attackers are meant to dealing damage
I usually steal enemy farm after the first respawn then around the same time birds in the middle pop up if my team doesnt steal my buffs by the time i get back i hit level 9 right before the 7 minute mark
I call it The C Rotation, I usually predetermine based on who's lane matchup is worse or better or if they're getting overun. So if top is worse off dealing with mamo snorlax I start with blue buff, bals and red buff.
But an exception to this is i go 'N-ish' rotation if theres a jungle invade then clear those buffs first.
That center swan group pokemon mostly come 8mins and 6mins exact
I usually don't like to get jungle, but when I do my route is based in the type of attack my pkm.
If is a Atk type I will go: Xatu>Top Baltoy>Red Buff>Bot Baltoy>Blue Buff.
If is a SpAtk type I will go: Xatu>Bot Baltoy>Blue Buff>Top Baltoy>Red Buff.
But if I see a Greedent or a Sableye with X Speed I will go from the Xatu to the priority buff then the 2nd buff.
Thank you for these great tips brother!
What do you do when your team keeps pinging you "check it out" BECAUSE you're getting your buffs and not helping a specific fight? If getting buff is so important, shouldn't the majority of players respect that, and not harass ping you for doing your jungle?
that garchomp jumpscare tho
Good i was hoping someone would make this guide
Keep this series up
Me too... This is really helpful for me
una bulid de aegislash ful críticos estaría muy bien y gracias por los consejos
I love your channel and all the great info you put out. I've learned so much from you it's really helped me. Could you do a back to the basics series where you talk about how to play different roles and lanes. I'm still such a noob and would love to know how to play better.
dang i discovered you trough watching Shurko in i gotta say this is an awesome guide
This video really helped me understand jungling better
If possible could you make a video on stacking and other imp things one should do would help a lot
Love your content
Now if only my teammates would quit being stupid and taking my buffs at the start of a match.
Buffs are on Timers, get them last, and go for the buff that will benefit you the most in your 1st fight. This is what decides my 1st mid lane rotation of the game.
If the Back to basics was a new series, Altarias' time and location could be the next chapter
For me, it depends on the laners.
If the top laners is weak I'd go top baltoy -> bottom baltoy -> blue buff -> red buff -> top lane. The opposite is true for bot lane.
I usually go for a "Z" rotation sometimes it will flip depending on the situation in either lane. I notice nobody pick jungle or they just steal farm. I make sure to keep an eye on the lane and prepare for a possible rotation in case someone falls behind
Thank you for giving this basic information
Glad it was helpful!
"what's less than 101..."
...100
That Dodrio makes me wish friendly fire was an option 😂😂😂 bad teammates can definitely ruin a game
Hey Jake! I've been watching you consistently since you started making content (not saying I'm your number one fan or anything, but let me know if you ever do autographed headshots so I can frame one... lol!) but I actually stopped playing pokemon unite about a year and a half ago. I just picked it back up last week and have been playing like crazy, and back to basics videos like this are insanely helpful! If you ever need more ideas for content, me and others like me would love more videos like this!
I remember a long time ago you made a video about what held items worked well on which pokemon. I know that's a much taller order now with an expanded roster and more items, but something like that would be amazing!
Just some thoughts. As always, appreciate you, cowboy! Thanks always for the great content on this fun game.
Jungle boogie! Jungle boogie!
Jake please make one for both lanes too. I am tired of people not going for the farm that you need to compete for in masters.
That Gard's camera work was nauseating holy smokes lol
The dodrio invading ralts jungle made me mad as heck
Ok I didn't know that blue is "cool down" and red is a "slow down"!
Always thought it was attack and defense
What do you do when and top or bottom lane takes the buffs on their way to the centre column?
Hopefully the people that need this will see it. If I'm not mistaken the jungle buffs spawn 60 second after you take them.
yes, respawn 60s after KO, but buff effects stay 70 second or until your Pokemon KO'd
Well when I play jungle in this game my teammates just take my buffs all the time.
Welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games
We got everything you want, honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey, we got your disease
