Since Riot is removing all the band-aids they added from the old rune system during preseason.....

Isn't it time to remove the +15% attack speed from Jungling items? It's very clear now that it never needed to be added in the first place, and Riot could've just adjusted some jungler's base attack speed instead.

Precision exists for a reason and if Junglers want that extra attack speed for smooth jungle clears they should sacrifice other runes and stats for it instead of being overcompensated.

It's timely that this has popped up because I raised this just Friday as something to address. Whether or not we do a change along these lines, I got pretty consistent feedback that people would rather see the flat damage removed/reduced than the on-hit Attack Speed. It's somewhat expected. Anytime an Attack Speed number is touched anywhere, people always start with the 'clunky' arguments.

item 1041's attack speed was added for champions like MasterYi and Shyvana who had playerbases who used attack speed and nothing else in their runes. I was one of those players, and even with that change, I still don't have as much attack speed as before, and my clears don't feel as fast, but I do like the change on Junglers who I didn't do this on (such as Elise and Graves) because honestly, while it makes their clears better, they're not exactly overperforming as it is. It's not like it's a huge power creep, since I'm pretty sure the best Junglers would still be the best Junglers without this.

You realize that not everyone that wants attack speed for clears wants to go precision every game right?

In all honesty they should buff item 1039 to be on par.

item 1041 Is simply superior in every way unless you're Zac or Fiddle.

There was a PTR thingy with talisman giving 45 leech [up from 25], but was seemingly scrapped for an unknown reason /probably too good on champions like eve?/

Because then junglers, if they gain that attack speed, just become overpowered in lane.

Jungle clear passives also make jungle monsters unattractive for laners early game.
