Jungle is not fun anymore.

You guys ruined the jungle. It was way more fun before, when many many champs could jungle, it didn't take 3 hours to clear a freakin' camp and come out with 50% hp.

Jungle is soo anti-fun now, it's honestly my most hated role, I would rather support any day. Despite jungle being my MAIN role before all the changes. Ganks = Fun More map mobility from the jungler = Higher skill ceiling, More team communication = More Fun

Riot just wants to keep lowering the skill ceiling of this game, 1 patch at a time. PLEASE un-nerf the jungle it totally sucks now.

Lower skill ceiling... created by harder jungle....

On a scale of 1 to Even, I can't....

yes, it means less champions can jungle, and we have to spend more time in the jungle clearing, more time B'ing to regen, etc. Less map mobility and map control, less ganking, less counter-jungling, lower skill ceiling. How is that hard to understand?

Strategically planning your clear path - determining which buff to take - knowing when to counter jungle a low enemy jungle is lower skill cap? Old jungle was Get buff, clear camp, get buff, clear camp, gank. Rinse, repeat. How does that take skill?

Lanes have to survive longer without the jg - higher skill cap.
Jg needs to know how to clear effectively now versus ROFL'Stomping camps, more skill.

I love the new jungle and I play a variety of junglers. Tanky junglers are slow right now - they are looking to give us a different item. I can't take Shyv and clear every single camp anymore in my first route and then gank, I see that as a positive, it separates the good junglers from the great.

Strategically planning your clear path? Maybe if you play jungle 1st time.

I agree. I used to love playing jungle, you could play so many champions in it, and it was a nurturing place to figure out how a champion works. I don't think I've played jungle in almost two month because it is either near impossible to go in there with fun picks or I'm forced to play a standard jungler because that is the only way to do well. I don't claim to be an all knowing player when it comes to the past seasons, but it seems to me like there are less champions to play in season 5 than there were in season 2.
