FogbreakThe jungle clear
Clearing your camps on a path that ends where you'll act.
« Today's hypothesis: a jungle clear starts at its end. Pick where you want to act, then chain your camps toward it, no doubling back. »
- Pick where it ends
Before the first camp, look at the lanes: bot has priority, its wave pushed toward them. Plan your clear to end next to it.
- Camp after camp
One camp after the other, in a single line toward bot. No walking back: every detour is time given to their jungler.
- End where it counts
You finish on the scuttle, right next to bot. Your bot lane joins you: their jungler arrives second, alone against three.
- The classic mistake
Camps in random order, back and forth, ending near your base. Their jungler takes the scuttle first, then ganks your bot lane.
When to do it
- Before your first camp: look at the lanes and pick where your clear should end.
- A lane has priority (its wave pushed toward them): end next to it, your laners can move with you.
- An objective is coming: end your clear on its side of the map, not across it.
How to keep it
- Start on the far side: begin away from where you want to end, and clear toward it.
- Camp after camp, in one line: every walk back and forth is time their jungler gets to use.
- Look up between camps: if a play opens somewhere, it matters more than the next camp.
The tip for your rank
Before your first camp, decide which lane you'll end next to. Then clear toward it, without turning back.
Pick the side where your lanes have priority: when your clear ends, they can join you at the scuttle or on a gank.
Plan your clear to show up where their jungler can't: first on the scuttle, first on the objective, and they're always a step behind.
