Alright, I played a couple games laning and thought "hey these changes aren't so bad". I got filled into a jungle role and picked , since he's a comfortable pick for me. He gets absolutely stomped on early game. With the changes to scuttle, everyone is basically forced to duel for it and junglers like can't even contest. In my game I lost the duel and end up being 1-3 levels behind the enemy jungler the rest of the game because they take the scuttle, me, and a camp while I'm dead.

On the other hand, I played a jungle game and stomped the other team (not alone) with easier dueling and scuttle control. This patch destroys jungle diversity and renders a lot of champs unplayable.

so there's 2 scuttle crabs that spawn. go to the other one.

if you do a camp instead of fighting for scuttle you are only like 50 exp behind. OHHHH NOOO

the issue with jungle right now, is that the mid laners have more control over it than the jungler does. Half of midlaners are playing hyperwave clear+smite, if they see you bot, they will shove the wave, take your entire top side+scuttle, and make it back to their lane before the enemy mid laner crashes the wave onto tower. This pretty quickly puts the jungler behind 3-4 levels(for the whole game), and causes a massive gold shortage for the jungler.

question your decision making. As MonkeyKing it would be dumb of me to fight a lv2 XinZhao Graves or even a MasterYi

Most streamer spread this mindset "DO EVERYSH*T for scuttle" but its how you play the game. If you can't, you can't, just let it. Don't know why at every change players stop using their brains.
