Instead of Riot nerfing sated, they should just allow it to have more counterplay. My idea: Once a champ gets sated, then they would no longer be able to lose stacks. Right now, sated champs can just go afk in their jungle and farm and then be unstoppable late game- by making them lose around 5 stacks on a death, it make them vulnerable to invades, and prevents them from dying 10 times and still wrecking everyone 35 minutes into the game.
Abyssphere4 votesThis would be a horrible idea and would force Sated junglers to be a lot more passive than they currently are. When Sated was designed it was specifically made so that it would encourage the stacking junglers to take risks to stack it. Making it so that stacks can be lost would reverse all of that work and bring back the "literally never stop afk farming" playstyle that everyone hates.
Arrowe1 votesYou can just steal their camps and since they're farming so much you can also get your laners ahead with little chance for a counter gank. Once you teammates are ahead you can team up and invade their jungle to take even more camps, dragons, and even kill the jungler. If you don't abuse the farm heavy junglers they can be sated at 15~ minutes if they're good. Although most lower elo players should just aim for sated before 20 minutes. this means you have 20 minutes to have your way. If dying would take away devourer stacks no one would buy that item anymore because of how easily it can be abused. Hope this helps :D
Ricky Spanish DC1 votesIts not like sated champs are useless until they farm though- They do rely on farming to reach their power spikes but its not like a devourer cant gank until 20 minutes in. I personally dont think sated is op, but I just think making it more simillar to an item like mejais would be good.

But devourer is not Mejais therefore it can't work like a Mejais. If they go for a gank they can get 1 stack? During this time just go into their jungle and clear camps and deny 3~ stacks.
Guyy Fieri1 votesThen you should lose stacks on ROA upon dying as well
