User blog comment:StrategicMagic/Jungle Caitlyn - Because AD carries can jungle too/@comment-141.255.0.150-20120731212005

as a season 1 1850+elo player let me tell you this.

If it works for you, play it.

you will have definately some success in the elo you are on, but major difficulties in higher elos

First of all you have some drawbacks when you do ad carry jungler.

1. jungler position doesnt gain much gold

2.ad carries scale with items, they need much gold

3.you ganks are bad without red buff, you will have to watch counterjungling

4. you are squishy, again care for counterjjungling

5.your team needs to pick obviously a tank solo top, since you will need a tank

for those reasons, its not difficult to see why ad carry jungler doesnt get played

an ad carry needs damage (best possible damage ie), phantom dancer, last whisper, lifesteal (with that gear a vamp scepter can hold you real well). thats a lot of gold

have you considered a 9/12/9 page? you will need the arpen for the mid game-late game

or the enemies will just stack armor
