Shyvana clears quickly, but her ganks kinda suck.
I know that you don't have to get kills to have a successful gank, but it sucks to let them get away with a few bars of health.
I'm thinking of spending some IPs on a good jungler, b/c I kinda like that role.
I'm thinking Jarvan, Elise, Evelynn.
What do you think?
Top tank is ok. I can 2v1, but it kinda gets boring.
I'm not a very strong mid-laner, but I haven't practiced that much.
Support sucks to play when the ADC sucks.
ADC is fun sometimes, but I feel stuck bot.
Someone is usually losing their lane and having flexibility to help them out appeals to me (team player kinda mentality).
I'm thinking a good jungler would solidify my interest in that role.

Jarvan is far and away my favorite jungler, probably my favorite champ. His ganks are strong with a knockup and a slow, and once he gets six he just has retarded amounts of CC. He does pretty good damage for a tank, and one of my favorite things in team fights is E->Qing into the enemy ADC, knocking the whole team up, and sticking on them, forcing them to run away all while I beat their face in with my spear. 
But you have to be careful with that ult. You can either be a hero and save your carry or team, or securing a kill... or, you can be THAT jarvan that traps his carry in with opponents and fricks them over. "IM JARVAN, IM HELPING" 
All I wanted to point out was that if support is boring, you're doing it wrong. I don't play as much as I used to, but support was my main for quite a while, then started jungling. A good support does lots for the team and even more for their ADC in laning phase and out of laning phase. Ward placement is most important, but you should be counterwarding, poking, etc. Sona is my favorite. Build a Kage's pick and her poke is stronk.
That being said, playing support to a shitty ADC is frustrating. I'm a damn good support so if you fail as ADC with me supporting, you really need help. If that happens I usually find whoever is most fed on our team after laning phase and stick with them to try to get them more fed.

The reason why people jungle to begin with is to maximize team experience by having 2 people ( top and jungle) getting solo experience. If the other team doesn't have a jungler you should definitely make sure you appear in top lane to help him if the tower is getting chunked down, but by attempting a gank. Any team without a jungler probably won't have wards, and 2v 1 they will probably be pushed under the tower making river hanks relatively easy. You should also be constantly invading the opposing jungle and taking their buffs while making sure to give your jungle buffs to your team, even red to ADC where it makes sense. In short, outside of having clear and free jingling paths on both sides, not an extreme amount changes you just need to be sure to provide enough pressure top to keep them from burning your tower. Once that tower goes you lose a lot of presence in the jungle, and worse that duo may now begin to roam and pressure yor other lanes.
Take all the buffs all the time for your team and help top keep his tower up. He is going to lose cs under tower but as long as the tower is staying up it is an advantageous situation for your team
