Patch 6.0E continues to support one of the most diverse jungle metas we’ve seen in Wild Rift. From explosive assassin carries to lockdown-focused tanks, the jungle role offers incredible variety in champion picks—whether you’re farming for late game or diving into early fights.

This list covers both jungle carries (bruisers, assassins, and scaling champions) and jungle tanks (frontliners, CC bots, and disruptors), with a clear view of who’s thriving in the current meta.

🔥 TL;DR – Top Picks You Should Be Playing

  • Riven – Dominates early fights, snowballs off resets, and scales like a monster.
  • Amumu – The king of teamfights. Massive AoE CC, simple to execute, and consistent value.
  • Kindred – Strong scaling jungler with outplay potential and anti-dive utility.
  • Lee Sin / Ekko / Wukong – High tempo, high mobility, and playmaking across all stages of the game.
  • Maokai / Volibear – Reliable tank junglers with early gank setups and good scaling.

🥇 Why Riven is SS:

  • Best reset champion in the jungle.
  • Incredible early pressure with level 3 skirmish power.
  • Scales into mid and late game with gap-closing, shielding, and true damage.

🟡 Notables in S Tier:

  • Kindred offers ranged scaling, zone control, and strong dueling.
  • Lee Sin, Ekko, and Wukong provide high-mobility playmaking and can impact early and mid-game heavily.
  • Lillia and Shyvana are farming powerhouses with strong scaling and AoE presence.

🛡️ Best Jungle Tanks – Patch 6.0E

Tank junglers are all about engage, peel, and CC. If you’re playing with scaling carries, these picks can set up teamfights and soak damage while holding map control.

TierChampions
SSAmumu
SMaokai, Volibear, Rammus, Shen, Nunu & Willump, Jarvan IV, Nautilus, Poppy
ADr. Mundo, Sion, Mordekaiser

🥇 Why Amumu is SS:

  • Easy to play, hard to stop.
  • AoE stun, huge teamfight control, and consistency at every rank.
  • Works great with AP-heavy teams and synergizes with AoE compositions.

🟢 Other Reliable Tank Picks:

  • Maokai – Great early ganks, point-and-click CC.
  • Volibear – Tower diving utility and strong dueling early.
  • Poppy – Now jungle viable with low cooldown CC and tanky scaling.
  • Nunu & Willump – Strong objective control and great for newer players.

💬 Quick Meta Notes

  • Gnar and Pantheon are surprisingly solid in jungle with fast clears and lane impact.
  • Talon and Olaf shine in specific comps or when counter-picking immobile champs.
  • Evelynn and Master Yi remain viable, but only if you can secure your farm safely and avoid early invades.
  • Twitch and Fiddlesticks are B tier—gimmicky and hard to execute in most ranked environments.

🎯 Jungle Strategy Summary

  • Always bring anti-heal and anti-shield tools in your kit or items.
  • Your job is more than ganks—track timers, control objectives, and apply map pressure.
  • Don’t be afraid to off-meta if you’re confident—Ambessa, Nilah, or even Morgana can work if you understand their jungle paths.
