Averages measured over 2066 Jungle games played with Lee Sin, from our ranked Solo/Duo data collection.
Lee Sin is a jungler built on mobility and initiative. He chains two-part abilities (Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike, Safeguard / Iron Will, Tempest / Cripple) to chase, protect or escape. His passive speeds up his next two attacks after each ability, which rewards fast chains. His ultimate kicks the target backward and damages whoever it hits.

When: You want to remove a carry from their position.
After Resonating Strike, Dragon's Rage kicks the target backward: it damages the enemies it hits and knocks them up briefly. Aim at a target that will cross their line.

In the jungle, keep some energy: each two-part ability costs some. Use Tempest to reveal enemies and Sonic Wave to engage. Safeguard lets you dash to an ally, which works as well to protect them as to join a fight.
The most-played core build is Black Cleaver, Death's Dance, and Eclipse (308 games, 58.1% win rate).
