S7 Jungle mini rant.

Now before any salty adc's jump down my throat, I think some junglers and the position in general is very strong but just have some things about this seasons jungle i need to get off my chest

The jungle this season has just been a mess and riot is going in the wrong direction

let's just face it. Adding more creeps to krugs and raptors was just a bad idea. Single target clear tanky junglers were already in a bad shape there. This made Ivern op initially because his raptor krug clear is so fast for him so instead of just balancing ivern in an attempt to "fix" the problem riot change the xp of little krugs that ivern doesnt get xp/gold by way of taking some from raptors

this in a wierd way helped tank junglers because at that point we just skip raptors until we have cinderhulk but it led to more problems with the early red into krugs lvl 3 gank cheese. So riot again moves xp gold back to raptors and away from wolves(?) again making life really bad for tank junglers.

Meanwhile junglers with good fast aoe clear have just gotten better from these changes

I really wish riot would get better at just admiting when they made a mistake and revert the jungle camps instead of this clown fiesta of a balancing act they've got going on trying to justify the changes to raptors and krugs The red and blue side of jungle are completely lopsided when you compare clear

it has done nothing but limit the viable clear routes, picks and itemization

I would be happy if the role overall got weaker if it meant opening up more pick options and variety in general
