Honor of Kings S12 Jungle Tier List: Lam 55% WR Dominates

Ever wonder what separates a decent jungler from a true carry?

Jungle Carry 101 in Honor of Kings

These guys own the jungle—blitzing fast clears, slamming level 2 ganks, and snagging objectives like it's their job. Post-Patch 1.10.5 (October 16), they're hitting 52-55% WR in Diamond+. Season 12's 'Spriteling Playverse' (September 24) spotlights Lam's true damage passive and Augran's self-heal for those brutal 1v9 clutches. Heck, King's World Cup Rush Down comps? 68% WR, with Lam at 98% pick/ban (67% WR over 64 matches).

Quick essentials to master:

1. Kick off with Hunting Knife (250g, 25% monster damage reduction, 20% XP bonus).
2. Aim for 70-80% KP (kill participation), 15-20% gold leads off 01:15 ganks.
3. Lock in 2-3 S-Tier heroes. Simple as that.

Season 12 Jungle Meta Breakdown

Lam rules S-Tier at 54.9% WR (24.1% pick, 38.7% ban). Augran? 55.1% WR and a whopping 45.2% ban rate. Feyd holds steady at 52-55% WR. Drop to A-Tier: Wukong (52.7%), Dian Wei, Prince of Lanling (47-52% WR). Patch 1.10.5 (October 16) supercharged level 2 ganks (+73% success). November 15 brings performance matchmaking and SSS +2 stars. December? Augran nerfs incoming, plus tank HP buffs. King's World Cup had Augran in 94% of games (58% WR); International Championship (November 14-30, $1M prize pool) screams burst heroes.

Red starts? Game-changer for Lam and Wukong—73% higher WR. Ban priorities: Augran, Lam, Daji. First-pick Lam or Augran if you can.

Lam: The Unmatched Solo Carry Beast

Lam's your nightmare—54.9% WR, 98% pro pick/ban (67% WR from 45 picks/38 bans). Space Split for AA dashes, Death From Below to ult-drag fools, Wavebreaker tossing 30% CDR and health restores. In Diamond+, he deletes squads in Rush Down comps (68% WR). I've watched him flip losing lanes into stomps—pure magic (editor's take).

1. Arcana: Hunt x10, Eagle Eye x10, Mutation x10.
2. Build: Boots of Tranquility (45% CDR), Muramasa, Blade of Despair, Fenrir's Tooth.

Augran: Sustain Machine for 1v9 Wars

Augran edges 55.1% WR with 45.2% ban rate—self-heal dashes let him solo the map. Pairs nasty with 8 new/12 reworked tank items. King's World Cup? 94% presence, 58% WR. Tanks can't touch him.

Arcana: Resist scaling, health amp, CC reduction.
Build: Resistance Boots, Dominance Ice, Shield of the Lost, Twilight Armor (+10% HP).
Path: Blue start, gank 01:30-02:00 (hit level 4 by 02:00-02:30, 67% success).

Feyd: The Wall-Jumping Outplay God

Feyd laughs at tanks with wall-jumps and Hardened Jade Mark recovery. November update gifts +5% early damage reduction. Post-KWC, he's S-Tier for sustain and outplays.

1. Arcana: Reaver x5, Eagle Eye x10, Mutation x10, Stealth x5.
2. Gank low-mobility lanes (mid/marksman) at 01:00-01:30.

A-Tier Picks for Flexible Carry Flex

Wukong (52.7% WR, clears 15-20s faster). Dian Wei pumps damage/lifesteal. Prince of Lanling stuns via skill 4→2. Wukong thrives in Rush Down (68% WR); Dian Wei loves blue starts; Prince goes red.

• Wukong: Red → level 3 gank 01:15 (15-20% gold lead).
• Dian Wei: Blue at 00:30 → Crimson 01:15.
• Prince: Stealth ganks before 4:00. Steer clear of dives.

Builds, Arcana, and Jungle Paths That Win

Hunting Knife into Relentless Blade. Assassins stack Muramasa/Blade of Despair; tanks grab Dominance Ice/Twilight Armor. Boots of Tranquility caps 45% CDR. Red path: Crimson 00:30 (slow/burn), Azure 00:45 (CDR/mana), gank 01:15 (73% higher WR).

2. Blue (Dian Wei/Augran): Azure 00:30 → smalls 00:45 → Crimson 01:15 → gank 01:30.

Gank Timing, Objectives, and Pitfalls to Dodge

Ganks shine 01:00-01:30. Dragon at 3:30, vision 3:45. Buffs: Blue favors Jungle>Mid>ADC; Red powers Jungle>ADC late (90s respawn). Smite steals >70% team HP for Lords.

Steer clear of full-HP tank ganks. Don't miss 01:15 buffs or level 4 by 02:30. Always check minimap—55s alerts, wards save lives.
River sprites. 70-80% KP over 20 games? 65%+ WR.
