Though it was a bug. Apparently not.

Not a bug at all. But I'm shocked nothing's been done to address devourer even on the PBE. While it's meant to be a late-game item, it's far too strong on certain champs. I saw a 2/4 xin take down a full health, 11/2 cho with full rod stacks and frozen heart...in 5 seconds. Cho used all skill shots fine and they hit, and used feast...but xin's regen on w was enough to just eat him alive. That's not right. I don't know what rito was thinking...first making the tank jungle item very op, then the mage jungle item op (to some non-junglers), then the farming jungle item op...

They have way too many ongoing changes at a time and they don't really see what the impact will be with everything together until it hits live. Balancing is hard, but their approach to the jungle this entire season is a mess.

I think if everything is OP then nothing becomes OP cause they are all the same (OP) XD

At one time? Sure. That just means all jungle is OP, which is possible. But at any point in time, there's one jungle item that is extremely strong. Cinderhulk was OP until it was nerfed. Runeglaive was OP for certain laners and Cinderhulk was fair then. Runeglaive got nerfed to make it not useful in lane, but then they made farming junglers far too strong with devourer. It's not like they made x weaker and then y was OP...they made x weaker and changed/created y which is OP. That's a horrible approach and has these negative consequences.

Was simply a joke. I honestly don't think making an absurdly strong item to counteract a different strong item is necessary.
