Am I the only one who preferred Feral Flare over devourer?

Seeing as it was a high risk high reward style of play?

Sure it caused some people to get upset because the jungler would farm lanes instead of ganking.

But I digress. Devourer was meant to prevent that and gave junglers the option to either kill or farm. The problem is, Devourer allows too much freedom. The problem with Devourer is the majority of junglers who use it already had incredibly fast clear times and generally get 1 or 2 item power spikes early on. Meaning not only can they savagely run through the jungle, they become a threat to the laners as well.

At least with Feral flare you had to play a sort of Nasus play style. You had to make a decision, do I help my team, or attempt to scale even harder. The only good side of Devourer is that its capped.

I personally don't think Devourer is broken, but I think its somewhat of a brainless item that was originally meant to allow choices to be made for devo junglers, but turned into this ridiculous item that allows for hyper carries like to do almost whatever they want.
