What is a jungler?

In LoL, a jungler is a player who focuses on killing the neutral monsters in Summoner's Rift's jungle, rather than fighting in a lane. Killing these creatures provides the jungler with a solid amount of gold and xp, while also leaving more gold and xp for their solo laning teammates.

Typically, each Summoner's Rift team has four laners and one jungler. In addition to killing neutral monsters, a jungler is responsible for supporting laners as necessary and initiating ganks on enemy champions.
