Wanted to learn vi jungle as im new to playing jungle and don’t know where to start.
Couldn’t find much educational content that was up to date so i thought i check in here and go from there.
I’ve seen crithality and hob setups on vi but idk if its actually good or a ‘for fun’ typa thing.
Any information about vi would be appreciated

I was a Vi one trick a long time ago(wasn't very good though), I recently (unfortunately) picked up league again recently, and I have had some decent success with Vi in the jungle.
I've had a consistent problem playing against Zac and other similar tank engage junglers that can easily match my roam. What do you guys do/build? Is it just bad Queue luck, or is my mindset not correct to try and win those games?

My play style is pretty passive- I try to focus on full clearing, and I typically don't do a sub 6 camp gank unless the positioning is perfect. Even then, I will typically wait until I can get and cover vision around first drag/or hit lvl 6 before I start looking for full commit ganks.

I've always believed the best way to win as a jungler isn't to try and snowball and obliterate every game, it's to have high CS and regularly play and prioritize objectives. My job shouldn't be to win other people's lanes for them. I will still gank frequently if the timing is right, but I'd rather go get 3 camps, a drag, herald, or something else, instead of committing a bunch of time to a single kill and getting someone else fed.

When do you guys do first back? Is there a specific gold target you're going for? How often do you counter jungle/invade?
When playing against zac or someone with a really strong gank, do you just go somewhere else to support a different objective?

Who are our most problematic matchups? What actually makes the most consistent impact? Is it my passive, objective based playstyle, or is the balls deep fighter style?

Every time I've tried to match a jungler with a better blind gank/roam, we lose the fight or a ton of tempo.

Used to be Plat 1/d4 a long time ago, now I'm climbing up from Silver after account elo got reset. currently at Silver 2 as of today.

Current win rate with Vi is 55%.

This is my typical itemization:

1- Triforce 90%, eclipse 10%

2- Black Cleaver

3- Guardian Angel (ahead). Sundered sky (behind).

The rest are pretty conditional.

new vi player here in emerald, tried out both critality and brusier build and i found myself liking aspects of both (critality damage, brusier tankiness) but felt like neither really suited my playstyle so i decided to cook something off meta,

the idea is going eclipse first cause its cheaper then triforce but gives u a shield for surviability and max health damage that stacks with your w making you a tank melter unlike critality, then going berserker greaves alongside w max second for objective shred and camp clear (i average 8.5 cs per min on vi with this build) then going shield bow second for crit and the shield, with these 2 items, when you go into a fight you will proc your eclipse shield first then your passive shield, stacking the shield but the shields procs are staggered which means serpant fang only works on one of them, and then shield bow give you a lifeline shield in which time you can proc both shields, suprisingly i found i die less with this build then bruiser,

finishing off the build go ldr and i.e for damage and last item go guardian angel if fed or blood thirster if you need damage or deaths dance if against assassins.

tried this build on an alt and did well and these are my first 3 games with this build on my main, feels really good to me, might not be meta but honestly i think its really good in terms of a middle ground between bruiser survivability and critality damage

I am a gold jungler and recently I started playing vi. I think she is probably the most fun out of any champ I’ve played in the jungle but she feels really weak to me. If I go the tri force black cleaver build it seems like I’m guaranteed to have the least amount of damage in the game by the end. Since that didn’t seem to be working I started building crit which can be really good if I can snowball otherwise I feel like I kinda just go with the flow of the game and can’t really do anything special. Anyone have tips on how to make her work?

If there are enemy AP carries fed is it worth to go malmortius and/or wit's end instead of black cleaver 2nd?

Wich item do I build after trinity if there are no tanks in the other team, still black cleaver?

You prefer do peel your team with ult and Q in teamfights or you go for backline anyway if it's a 5v5 even game scenario?

Well i've been playing around with stadistics and consistency have to tell that PTA and HOB are the best runes for VI when comes to SOLO Q at low elo Silver to Platinum.

even Emerald, what you need with VI is consistency, if you have to depend on your team to deal damage and follow your calls you will hardstuck, at low elo as me.

also usually low elo games reach minute 30 to minute 45 too easly

so runes from sourcery brench are really useful i cant remember the names of the runes but one make your R deal 12% more damage and the other the longer the game extends the strongest you become.

with this 2 runes and PTA brench usually i can stomp games not just win them

for example this game against belveth and nasus with ezreal, my teammates all 3 lines lose their tier 1, every single one of them, we secure objectives and i stole camps from bel veth, but sylas missed all his abilities, MF always have issues with her way to position and forgets to use her R when she has to.

jax played pretty well, but brand top hostigate it pretty much, also brand was really strong at mid game, those 9 times he dies all because of me, he was pretty mad.

nami also played not as good as i would like, because she had mana and she didnt follow me to make plays and punish enemies failures like using portals to follow us when i have enough damage to make them explode and with nami healing and my omnivamp i can keep fighting 1 v 3 pretty easy.

got to tell this game was wild, because i have to dance with nasus and mel a lot, flashing them to kill ezreal and use pinnaples to flee from them making sure belveth wasnt near.
