Hey there, good luck to you sir! Judging from your lolking, seems like you recently hit 30, so I'll go ahead and give a few pieces of advice that may or may not be helpful.
You seem to have a good idea on picking 2 or 3 champs in each role that you can play, but it might be best to pick one or two roles in particular that you "specialize" in. When i was new, I always discounted this, and thought "I can play any other role just as well", but the things you learn playing game after game in a particular spot or with a specific champ is really invaluable.
Re: your jungle picks. Looks like it is alot of carry-over from your top lane picks. I'm a big proponent of "play what you like and what works for you", but it might behoove you to take a look at some of the more popular jungle picks in the meta right now. As it stands, Malphite is much more commonly played top lane (not the best clear, pre-6 ganks are pretty nonexistent, etc), and even Nasus seems to be getting more play top lane lately in solo queue than in the jungle (although his objective control is still great). I don't recommend putting any time into learning Trynd or WW for the jungle. Trynd NEEDS more farm than the jungle provides to get his items (plus his ganks suck), and WW just pretty much needs a rework right now. He can work, but in my opinion giving up any threat of a pre-6 gank to the enemy team is just a bad idea.
As for what you might consider - Jarvan is an amazing all-around champ and a great go-to jungler. If you like the dive/initiate of malphite, Vi is your lady. Other strong picks right now are Evelynn and Elise, if you like AP junglers. (of course there are other choices)
Anyway, only a few weeks left in S3! Good luck if you start before the end of the season!
