Why jungle is so nerfed and game feels so ugly that It made me to uninstall league twice?! It was a great game until season 7 tho... Jungler (powerfarm+stole 2 camps, red and raptors of enemy jungler) 3/0/1: 6lvl Support: 0/0/0 6lvl ADC: 0/0/0 7lvl Mid: 0/1/0 7 Lvl Top: 1/1/0 7 Lvl Whole season 8 and before junglers had 25% or more XP. that means all those seasons were wrong, let's make junglers a support role, solo carry is over for junglers even if ur playing in lower elo. They wanted to reduce lvl2 jungler powers, they failed again. They wanted to nerf jg overall performance, They succeed cuz Jungle is dead. Only viable champs are early game and heavy ganker junglers, no more powerfarm, no more fights with junglers for their buffs/camps. They even nerfed scuttle. Hey Riot? I'm done with this game. I know I won't be missed but until they make something great Imn't coming back. P.S. Oh and for 3 months of preseason we've got turret plating. No new items, runes, jungle changes, item reworks, etc. P.P.S Don't forget the overall dmg is still damn high and nothing changed yet.

Victim complex so much right ?

I wont feel bad for the role that has been the most impactful in the game for years, it was about time that jungle got the nerfs the role deserved.

AFK farming is stupid in the first place dude. No matter how much it annoys me, it is a team game, and riot is doing everything in their power to push that as hard as possible. And that includes making roles and playstyles that do nothing for their team less viable. Ganking for your lanes is really important dude.

If they want jg to be more of a support role then they should at least give catch up exp for jglers who are behind...that way jg will still stay at bot lane's lvl but jglers who got fked early game would still be able to catch up.

to have great impact it seems power farming is now a must because in late game if the enemy jungle stole all of your camps then they are ahead and can carry, i have been doing better in games now where I power farm as much as I can while trying to get all drags and rift solo

I might be a little off here but thats what has been working for me at least

tbh, junglers had as much xp as botlane in the past. It is only normal that they get their XP reduced.

and idk where you're getting this sample from, cause in every game I play, the adc has the same lvl as the support, and junglers still are higher in XP than botlane.

Oh rest assured jungle is even stronger, but only when playing these champs specifically;

Khazix XinZhao Hecarim

otherwise yes, the jungle is now awful.

I am going a bit off topic - But does anybody here feel that Shyvanna is overpowered as a jungler after her buffs?

I played jungle today and she took the dragon at level 3 before I could run from base to dragon's pit. I was playing Warwick so I know what an early drake looks like but in her current state playing her pretty much means a guaranteed drake. I don't see how powerfarm junglers such as Yi or Jax can ever survive in this meta when early game junglers such as her pretty much guarantee her team objectives.

I dont know why you guys complain about the jungle. From my perspective of midlaner I only saw this all the season :

Jungler gank level 2, gank level 4 , gank level 6 , gank , gank , gank , gank.

It is just so frustrating to play vs 2 people in midlane. Of 50 ganks you will die once 100% because they can flash both, they have cc , ignite , smite.

And doing that ganks he never was punished, he get kills , a lot of farm. So where is the point? To win if only your ´´jungler´´ counter gank? Thats not gonna happen we are not in challenger.

I understand someone can camp you 2 times or 5 even more but to camp you 20 times and dont get punished?

You have to decide what you gonna do in the match, no ´´Lets camp this guy because I dont lose nothing´´

You have no idea how disgusting is is to stay in midlane playing against that. It is the worst feeling and the most tilting posible in this game.

And when it is a tank and gets level 6+ good luck being dived under tower with 30 CC + ignite + smite + skills (and both flash to escape)

Junglers had too much impact in this game. And in past seasons they didnt. So why people pretend like junglers NEED to have a lot of impact when it never wasn´t like that? This was a mistake that Riot didn´t realize with time.
