If you are new to the game I'd recommend the same as PsiGuard: Try more conventional junglers.

If you want to know why he's not "meta" as a jungler:
- Bad early clear. It's hard get to level 3 on your first jungle rotation with and even if you can, chances are you won't be surviving any invade that could happen (and invades will happen if you're jungle ).
- Little damage on a squishy champion. isn't a good tank nor a damage dealer. Some champions will kill you if you gank them and they're smart enough.
- His traits are overshadowed by other junglers. If you want weird gank paths try /, if you want heavy CC try /, if you want damage pick any jungler with more than 2 damaging skills and he'll deal more damage than .
