Mastering Lillia's Jungle Clear: A Step-by-Step Guide Welcome to the Lillia Jungle Guide! In this blog post, we will provide you with a detailed walkthrough on how to efficiently clear the jungle as the champion Lillia in League of Legends. By following these step-by-step instructions, accompanied by visuals, you will be able to maximize Lillia's clear speed and sustain, ultimately improving your jungle performance and enhancing your overall gameplay experience. Step 1: Optimal Pathing To start off your jungle clear, it is crucial to choose the optimal pathing. As Lillia, you want to prioritize farming and gaining experience, so starting at the Red buff or blue buff is recommended. From there, you can move on to the Krugs or the Gromp, depending on which side of the map you are on. This pathing allows you to clear the jungle efficiently while minimizing downtime.
Blue side: In-depth clearing
After clearing the Krugs, move into the last camp on that side of the jungle. In this case of being on the blue side of the map, after raptors you have a fast gank in to mid lane from botside river. If your lane is pushing, you can avoid the time waste by just moving across the mid lane towards wolves. Make sure to always level up E on level 3, because you want to throw it in to mid lane while crossing the path. This makes you maintain your passive ability's stacks and ensure you make it in time to top lane.
Kite the big wolf towards blue buff, and kill it just before the camp resets. While clearing the blue buff you should have about 30 seconds left before the scuttle crab spawns. At this time you want to decide if it's worth to skip Gromp and with that level 4 for a gank in to top lane. If the situation looks like a succesfull kill, you should rush to gank just after blue buff dies. If the kill isn't certain, you should always just go clear the Gromp and then be on time at the river for the ensuing fight with the enemy jungler for the scuttler. Make sure to save smite for this and yoink the gold for yourself. Then back for items and start looking for ganking opportunities while preparing for the neutral objectives.
Red side: In-depth clearing
After clearing the Gromp, move in to the wolves for level 3. It's harder to gank midlane from wolves, but you can always decide to go there if your midlaner is getting hard-pushed and the enemy is out of position. Usually this isn't the case and instead of wasting crucial seconds, you should once again just E down midlane while crossing the path to maintain the movement speed bonus. Clear topside jungle in this order: Raptors, Red buff and then Krugs. After killing the bigger Krugs you will get level 4 and want to start stacking Q immediately. Krugs gives you a good path in to the top lane and look for a flash for the enemy or maybe even a kill if your top laner is paying attention. If your top laner is pushing and things look okay, just go to river and prepare for a fight for the Scuttle crab. Try to again save smite for the fight and get that precious gold. Then recall and start looking for gank opportunities with preparation for the neutral objectives.

Step 2: Ability Usage Lillia's abilities are key to her jungle clear. Start with her Q ability, Blooming Blows, to deal damage to the jungle monsters. Make sure to hit as many monsters as possible with each cast to maximize your damage output. Follow up with her W ability, Watch Out! Eep!, to heal yourself and increase your movement speed. Use this ability whenever it is off cooldown to sustain through the jungle clear. Finally, use her E ability, Swirlseed, to slow down and damage the monsters, making it easier for you to kite them. Step 3: Kiting Techniques Kiting is an essential skill for any jungler, and Lillia is no exception. To kite effectively, attack the jungle monsters and then move away from them while they are in the middle of their attack animation. This allows you to deal damage while taking minimal damage in return. Use Lillia's passive, Dream-Laden Bough, to your advantage by auto-attacking the monsters and then quickly moving away. This will maximize your damage output and sustain. Step 4: Smite Usage Don't forget about your Smite! As Lillia, your Smite can be used to secure objectives like Dragon and Baron, but it can also be used during your jungle clear to deal additional damage to the monsters. Use your Smite on the big monster in each camp to clear them faster and take less damage. Try to always save your second smite for the Scuttle Crab which spawns precisely at 3:30. By following these step-by-step instructions, you will be well on your way to mastering Lillia's jungle clear. Remember to practice your kiting techniques and optimize your ability usage to maximize your clear speed and sustain. With time and dedication, you will become a formidable force in the jungle and enhance your overall gameplay experience with Lillia.
