Introduction to Jungle Pathing in Honor of Kings

Buffs pop at 00:30—Red's your Crimson Golem, Blue's the Azure Golem. You're level 3 by 01:15, level 4 around 02:00-02:30. That's your window: dive marksmen under 60% HP for a whopping 73% win rate on ganks.

Red starts? They get you rotating faster. Blue keeps your mana flowing smooth. Lam crushes it at 67% WR going Red to Blue then invading; Augran holds steady at 55.1% with a full Blue clear.

Quick steps: Smite Red at 00:30. Hit Blue by 00:45—skip the smalls if you're on an assassin. Then gank with your ally's CC ready.

Standard Jungle Clear Paths

Red Buff Start. Smite that Crimson Golem at 00:30, roll to Blue by 00:45 (ditch smalls for assassins), hit level 3, and gank at 01:15—straight onto marksmen.

73% WR here, especially with damage or slows in play.

Break it down: 1) Red 00:30. 2) Blue 00:45. 3) Smalls for level 3. 4) Gank mid or bot.

Blue Buff Start. Smite Azure Golem 00:30, clear adjacent smalls fully, swing to the opposite buff, and you're level 4 by 02:00. Perfect for scalers.

Steady gold per minute. Low risk of invades stealing your thunder.

Steps: 1) Blue 00:30. 2) Nearby smalls. 3) Opposite buff. 4) Farm up to 4.

Optimal Gank Timings and Routes

Time your ganks for 01:15-01:30—right after buffs and smalls. Enemies overextend? CDs on cooldown? Ally CC up? Numbers on your side? That's 73% WR on marksmen below 60% HP.

Lam shines: Red to Blue to gank, 67% WR.

Do this: 1) Hit level 3 at 01:15. 2) Ward the river bush. 3) Collapse with your laner. 4) Reset those camps.

Drop wards in river bushes by 1:00. Track those 90-second buff respawns. Go vertical jungling to dodge threats—mid first, bot next. Ever wonder why some junglers vanish early? This is it.

Hero-Specific Pathing Strategies

Lam (54.9-67% WR): Red at 00:30, Blue 00:45, invade their Red, then level 3 gank. Duel king—I've watched this snowball games.

Augran (55.1% WR): Blue start, full smalls clear, level 4 gank at 02:00. Sustain beast.

Wukong (51.97% WR): Red to Blue, snag two camps with animation cancels, level 3 by 01:15 on lone targets. (Pro tip: those cancels? Game-changer for speed.)

Map Awareness and Ward Placements

Ward jungle entrances, buff paths, river brush. Sets up your 01:15 plays and tracks 90s respawns—boosts gank success to 73%.

Steps: 1) Hit entrances pre-gank. 2) Glimpse minimap every 5 seconds. 3) Catch those overextensions.

Hot zones: river pivots, enemy buffs for invades. Vision wins wars.

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Botch your clear? You miss 01:15 ganks. Over-farm, and WR tanks below 73%.

Fixes. Prioritize winning lanes. Mix Red and Blue starts. Always gank with backup or CC.

Track timers religiously. Simple.

Counter-Jungling and Adaptive Paths

Vertical jungle: crash their buff if they're threat or overextended. Deny that farm.

Steps: 1) Ward enemy Red/Blue. 2) Invade at 00:30 with Pei. 3) Fall back to full clear.

High-risk/high-reward—Pei or Jing thrive here. (Editor note: I've clutched games this way, but ping team first.)

Metrics for Success and Builds

Aim for 73% gank success, solid CS/min from 3-minute clears, level 4 by 02:00.

Core Builds. Hunting Knife (250G). Relentless Blade/Patrol Axe/Guerrilla Machete (700G). Giant's Grip as core. Cursed Fang against healers.

S-Tiers: Lam/Augran/Wukong/Dian Wei/Feyd (54.9-67% WR). Data doesn't lie—these paths deliver.

Advanced Tips for Ranked Climb

Lock Tyrant/Overlord at 4:00, Dragon too—position by 3:30 with team over 70% HP, Smite steal ready.

Steps: 1) Vision river pre-spawn. 2) Contest with burst. 3) Sync with squad.

Blue for mana after nerfs. Weave in CC comps. Climb feels effortless once this clicks.
