As Jarvan IV is one of the most reliable junglers in the game, now is the best time to look at all of his skins.
Jarvan IV, The Exemplar of Damacia, was released in 2011. He is the current king of Damacia. Moreover, he is an exceptional fighter, trained by Xin Zhao. Being raised with his nation’s greatest virtue, Jarvan IV inspires his troops with fearsome courage and selfless determination.
In-game, Jarvan IV is a champion mainly played in the jungle. Though he is a bruiser, his playstyle is classified as a diver. Additionally, he is a very reliable and consistent champion. Because of that, he can be played in almost every meta.
Furthermore, Jarvan is a very versatile champion and can build nearly every item in the game. Depending on the situation, you turn him into a bruiser, tank, hyper-carry, and even support. For that reason, in high elo and at the hands of a veteran, Jarvan IV is powerful.
