Alright, guys, let’s talk about my latest experiment – Samira jungle. Yeah, you heard that right. I took our favorite marksman into the jungle, and let me tell you, it was a wild ride.
So, I’ve been playing a lot of League lately, and I was getting a bit bored of the usual ADC routine. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Samira bot lane is fun and all, but I wanted to try something new, something spicy. That’s when it hit me: Samira jungle. I know it sounds crazy, but I had this gut feeling it could work.
First things first, I did a bit of research. Looked up some guides, checked out what the pros were saying, you know, the usual stuff. The general consensus seemed to be that Samira jungle was… well, let’s just say it wasn’t exactly meta. But hey, when has that ever stopped me? I’ve learned that sometimes the most fun comes from breaking the rules a little.
I hopped into a few normal games to get a feel for it. The first clear was rough, no doubt. Samira isn’t exactly built for taking on those jungle creeps solo early on. I had to rely on my kiting skills and a bit of luck to make it through. I got invaded a couple of times, and let’s just say it didn’t go well. But I persevered, learned from my mistakes, and slowly started to get the hang of it.
Once I got my core items, things started to change. I went for The Collector first, then Plated Steelcaps. With those, I was able to clear camps faster and gank more effectively. I focused on snowballing early, trying to get kills and assists to get ahead of the curve.
Mid to late game, I was a force to be reckoned with. I added Infinity Edge and Bloodthirster to my build, and my damage went through the roof. I could jump into teamfights, dish out tons of damage, and get out safely with my resets. It felt amazing to carry games from the jungle with a champion that’s usually stuck in the bot lane.
Now, I’m not saying Samira jungle is the next big thing. It’s definitely not easy, and it requires a lot of practice and a good understanding of the game. But if you’re looking for a fun, off-meta pick that can really surprise your opponents, give it a shot. It is a challenging but rewarding experience. I had some pretty epic fails along the way, but also some incredible highlights. I even managed to climb a few ranks with it, which was a nice bonus.
- Started with some research, found out it wasn’t meta.
- Tried it in normal games, struggled with the first clear.
- Built The Collector and Plated Steelcaps first.
- Focused on early ganks and snowballing.
- Added Infinity Edge and Bloodthirster later.
- Dominated teamfights in mid to late game.
- Climbed a few ranks, had fun, and learned a lot.
So, that’s my Samira jungle story. It’s not for everyone, but I had a blast with it. Who knows, maybe I’ll inspire some of you to try it out yourselves. Just remember to have fun and don’t be afraid to experiment. After all, that’s what gaming is all about, right?
