Literally 90% of my games this season better jungler wins and just straight up carries the game.
This is no doubt exacerbated by positional ranking being terrible where one jungler is good and the other is total trash nearly every time.
Is your jungler lee sin? Or Camille? Those assassin-ee types carry because they get absurd base, scaling, AD, and HP from their kits and itemization.
I think the issue with the jungler is that riot is FORCING an ultra-gank jungle meta where the best junglers are going to be champions like Nautilus, J4, and Rammus who can just gank all the time without being punished.
All the changes they've slowly been pushing onto jungle have made it extremely polarized, yes. Generally either both have a miserable experience, or one does because they're outplayed or unlucky in even just one scenario beyond reasonable hope of coming back unless the enemy heavily misplays into you specifically.
You're already 1-2 levels behind, low on gold, and usually not with good waveclear. Imagine falling behind on top of that, and not even being able to buy a support starter item so you aren't a cannon minion. It's literally almost not worth farming camps anymore if you can just go and fight or impact the map before anyone else because you'll fall more and more behind without that due to all these changes. It was a good problem to think about with jungler impact prior to these changes (starting from rift herald which isn't so bad, to plants, to exp catchups and removal, to krugs nerf, to scuttle, and to all the new changes now) but most of the solution(s) just feel awful.
