Jungling (MOBA)

Jungling is a strategic role in Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games. Players defeat neutral monsters in the jungle, the area between lanes, to gain experience and gold. This allows them to level up faster and purchase better items. Junglers often gank lanes by surprising enemy players, providing a tactical advantage. Effective jungling requires map awareness, efficient routing, and teamwork. Successful junglers balance farming jungle camps and supporting their team, influencing the game's outcome. Essential to team dynamics, jungling can shift momentum by controlling objectives and pressuring opponents across the map.
