How to play jungle ?

[rizzi]

I'm new and would like to understand who is the jng in this game and how to play in the jungle

Starting from the 6th minute, the jungle will start appearing, and after a wave of creeps on the lane, you need to start hitting them. You don’t have to finish them all off; the main thing is to return to the lane and get the kill there, then go back to the jungle.

but is it like in lol that jng is a role dedicated to certain champions or can all characters do jng?

Everyone can farm the jungle. You should farm when you need souls and the enemy is too far from you.

It does not seem that there is a jungler, as the camps do not start spawned. There are certainly Heroes who jungle much better than others, like in other MOBAs, but its not a situation where you would have two dual lanes, a solo lane, and a jungler at the start. Correct me if Im wrong though

There is no jungler role in Deadlock.
There aren't any set roles in Deadlock right now, really, but comp' level players have devised a kind of role system for their own reference that makes sense, so Dynamo and Ivy would typically be considered supports because they have abilities that facilitate team engagements and support allies directly, but it's not strictly tied to a hero. Haze could theoretically be played as a lane support because her Dagger is such good set-up tool, and item choices in this game tend to be diverse enough to allow for multiple playstyles.

Jungling is a thing every character should do when there's a chance, regardless of their role. Jungling itself is not a role.

I like to steal enemy camps, and a lot of my counterplay advice comes from denying the enemy their most convenient farm, but I'm kind of a moron who picks up Superior Stamina every game ASAP while playing wicked sick mob clearing characters, so of course that's my one-note plan in any match. There's a time and a place to steal camps, but boy my watch is either 5 minutes fast or 10 minutes slow I don't know which, and I took the wrong turn at Albuquerque.

its not a jungle.... its alley

basically you don't have a dedicated jungle like other Mobas, you CAN definitely do it with some specific builds and characters after 6min, but its play is far from LoL.

Main objective is to PUSH LANES towards OBJECTIVE witch is ENEMY BASE. After you have pushed lane/lanes with ur teammates you can hop in the jungle on your way back or between lane change etc. Main objective is to play as a team together towards Objective.

While I agree with others that there's no dedicated junglers, there are heroes that should prioritize (and be prioritized by) others so they can get ahead by mid to late game--so long as they aren't losing objectives because of their focus on jungles.

Right now, Seven is probably top of the list because he is up in the meta and has a kit that makes it possible to farm absurdly quickly (his 1 can be dropped on tier one camps and left to finish them without any bullets if you position it right, his 3 combined with infuser can clear tier three camps faster than any other hero from the time they spawn).

Haze, Wraith, and Vyper all like to get ahead. Shiv does too, but he isn't as efficient at the start imo. A Warden who gets a good soul lead becomes an absolute menace and his gun can clear tier two camps pretty well once you get quicksilver reload on his 1.

There are probably some I'm forgetting about bu those are your top six.

Like others have said, the way to do it is in between waves, so those with good mobility and consistent AoE or fire rate excel.

Worth noting, the slot machines (Sinner's Sacrifice?) are a bit overtuned right now because they will consistently give three buffs once you get the timing down plus their souls.

Everyone likes to get ahead, I don't know what this guy is talking about.

Jungle doesn't give as many souls as minions in lane.
So you shouldn't be just jungling.

After your lane is pushed as far as you can safely push it, take the jungle camps near there.
If you can take camps on the enemy side of the map safely, that's better.
You can also clear some while rotating, but you only really want to do that when the lane is pushed and your objectives aren't threatened.
