Can we remove the free jungle timers?

I've mained Jungle since I started in season 3 and I feel the jungle has been dumbed down way too much. While I was learning the game, I took pride in timing my buffs and dragons for my team. It gave me an edge up on people at my ELO that didn't.

The reasoning was that all high ELO junglers already did this so who cares? Well that's not really fair. Timing the jungle was a skill of the role. If you look at other roles for example, they still have to manage their waves. Just because all high ELO players know how to do it doesn't mean they don't still have to do it right? Just because they know how to pick better back timings doesn't mean they still don't have to do it? These are "basics" that most high ELO players know but they still have to do.

Why did jungle get dumbed down? Really all you have to focus on is ganking. For any important objective you just have to press tab and it's all there for you.

My suggestion is to remove the timers and the one minute warnings you get on the minimap. Dragon and Baron still make their global noises when dying to give both teams a fair shot at the next one.

Then people will just resort to using phone apps like they did in the old days. Might as well have it ingame.

You can time minor camps

The red and blue timers are literally only helpful for you if you are the one who took the camp. wah instead of a built in timer i want people to go back to having a personal timer ready for dragon and baron.
