What about a keystone or two for the jungle?

How does riot exactly expect keystones that are meant to be taken advantage of throughout the game in lane and what not to be viable in the jungle. now after sota is getting removed. we will have no interactive choice for the jungle. so obviously. you will get a typical keystone. now my question is. can we have some sort of a keystone for junglers. idk. something that gives you hp/mana per camp killed. we'd be sacrificing team fighting and just combat in general for jungle sustain. meanwhile we won't feel like we're not using our masteries for 75% of the time in a match. i mean. it will be thunderlords in the jungle for anyone that isnt; a tank and the new mastery for tanks that have any sort of cc. if not. more thunderlords. jungle fights don't last long enough to stack frevor tbh and a lot of junglers outside the on hit ones don't use it currently anyway.

At least jungle got a nice cunning tier4 now (greenfather's gift) to go with the buff duration tier2 now.

Honestly, Greenfather's Gift will probably see more use by ranged laners than junglers.

Junglers will get to use it maybe once or twice in a gank while ranged laners can use frequently during the laning phase.

They just have to duck into a nearby bush on occasion for bonus damage.

It just says "target." Wouldn't they take it for the 3% current hp chunk on monsters? It's more useful than dangerous game to me.

It might help against Red and Blue Buff, but I doubt it will be enough to forgo Dangerous Game.

It adds some extra burst damage for ganks, but I believe it will be more beneficial for laners to take.

Oh good, you scared me, I thought I read it completely wrong. XD

So, speaking of that, how busted do you think Fresh blood will be on ranged laners though? That's the one I'm worried about; get that stacking with Greenfather's too and it'll suck to be melee.

I'm not really sure if Greenfather's Thumb actually affects jungle monsters. I'm just trusting you on that front and offering my opinion if that happens to be the case.

Oh, I'm not happy about Fresh Blood. Ranged champions are already dominating most lanes and they really don't need any more help doing so.

Considering it will be far harder for melee champions to take advantage of those masteries in lane and there isn't really any melee/ranged tradeoff, it seems rather poorly thought out.

Just went to check; yes it works on jungle creeps. I shoulda double checked earlier^^"
