I rarely see guides pointing out the benefits of charging your passive. Launching at least 1 sap at the fountain before running off to wraiths will let you reach max charge for the wolves = added health. Chucking out extra Arcane Smashes as you walk between the other jungle camps can quickly net you another maxed passive ready for the next camp, without losing speed. With the blue buff running, you're not in danger of running out of mana. These extra passive HP boosts thru the early jungle will actually net you greater health bar by lvl4 when you are ready to decide if a gank is needed before you Base. Just something to chew on that a lot of people don't consider. That extra health early jungle really helps out.
