The Pro Jarvan IV Jungle Path features a full jungle clear with a Red Buff start. This route was the most popular one out of all the games we analyzed and appears to be the best one in Master+ elo because a majority of high elo players don't fall for early-game ganks (which Jarvan excels in). Though, the modularity of this clear still allows you to do a level three gank on Middle lane after Raptors. As Jarvan, you'll want to start with (E) DEMACIAN STANDARD as his first skill because it deals damage and also grants a substantial boost to attack speed, resulting in the highest damage output at level one. Kill the Red Brambleback and then at level two unlock (Q) DRAGON STRIKE to kill the Krugs and Raptors. This gives you level three, unlocking (W) GOLDEN AEGIS. Next up kill the Murk Wolves, Blue Sentinel and Gromp. This grants you level four, upgrade (Q) DRAGON STRIKE and start pathing towards the Rift Scuttler. Once you've killed the Rift Scuttler, invade the enemy jungler or try to gank a nearby lane. This Jarvan Jungle Clear is great for games where Jarvan is not likely to get a kill by ganking, and instead focuses on farming up & taking objectives such as the Dragons and Rift Herald.
The information below will help you get familiar with the game on the Solo Baron Line JARVAN IV. We have prepared a items builds, runes, summoner spells and ability order for a comfortable game. Situational options for replacing items and runes are also available to you.
