quite possibly the worst change to the worst problem. I mean, really, this was their answer?

We'll be going with a temporary solution as a result that's pretty ugly on the intuitiveness/clarity side, with the intention of replacing it come preseason when it's more appropriate to make larger changes.

It's almost as if you refused to complete your jungle item

i wonder since junglers get 10 less gold from minion kills i wonder what happens if item 3302 procs with them around or they proc it

Now I get to watch my jungle take farm when I’m next to him for +4. Probably while rushing infinity edge 1st item while running font of life and rampant growth. Newb traps abound.

The purpose/benefit of junglers holding lanes includes a lot more than gold. Half of the benefit is just wave-management (setting up the wave so the enemy loses minions or your ally gets more when he gets back). Besides, you only lose 60 gold per wave (about half of the gold) and none of the EXP. So holding a lane is still a good idea.

Yeah if I see that debuff, I don't even bother breaking freezes or crashing waves. Fuck that.

TBH, Kench probably has the minion sharing income item(unless they prefer a different one for some reason) and isn't full health right now so could be killing the minions instead of Jax. Would Jax get full bounty or reduced? Either way, it would prevent Kench from missing out on gold.

I will never hold a lane because of this change and i hope my team loses the game and thanks Riot after that :)

Riot has the philosophy of completely ruining something else in order to fix something completely broken.

All of the posts acting like this is the intended, permanent change. In the literal patch notes that introduced it Riot stated this isn't their preferred fix but the only one available in the moment.

Tbh such junglers are mostly extincted. The ones who are willing to sacrifise jg xp or ganks for deffending the 1st tower.
