Ivern is a "Support" jungler aiming to help his team and protect them with his very specific set of abilities.
His passive for instance makes Ivern a very unique jungler requiring little knowledge.
- First camps: It is mandatory to get level 3 quickly, simply activate your passive on the Blue Sentinel or your Red Branbleback, same goes for your Razorbeaks and your second buff on wich you'll use your Smite. Go back and activate your passive on the first buff and a multi camp. You can then go on an other camp and use your Smite to get level 3.
- Ganks and Objectives: Ivern's strengh during ganks is the combo of his Q - Rootcaller and E - Triggerseed damaging and slowing enemies on top of shielding your allies.
