5 best jungle champions for League of Legends patch 12.10 (durability) and beyond

Jungling is arguably the most technical role in League of Legends. Playing a jungle champion requires immense knowledge of the game as impactful pathing and ganking is not easy to execute.

When choosing the best jungler to play with, multiple factors are considered. Apart from ganking and killing abilities, numerous aspects of a jungler, like durability and strength, should be given equal importance before the final roll.

Meta and champion power often play essential factors in controlling the tempo of smooth jungling, and obviously, some junglers are much stronger than others. As of now, League of Legends patch 12.10 (champion durability) did impact the title in terms of champion selection.

This particular patch literally broke the jungle heavily. It's no longer just Kha'Zix's reign. Instead, brawlers and tank champions rule the greens with ease. Also, since durability is up, these champions can run riot without much worry.
