I feel like the patches are all geared toward making certain junglers very hard to deal with

Cinderhulk patch made tank junglers like very hard to deal with, and major pick bans until some changes were made to the champions.

Now with the sated devourer patch, the jungle picks and bans are full of who are all incredibly strong and hard to deal with from this patch.

It would be nice to go through some patches that don't turn a handful of champions into unstoppable gods of the rift that will most likely carry the game if they are picked.

How are we suppose to have any change if we don't change the items at all? Or are you complaining about how RuneGlaive, Sated devourer, and the new warrior passive are coming out in rapid succession?

But really it's the Jungler's season. Jungle items have been the focus ever since the pre season.

And you shouldn't hinder an item just because on, Very nerfable champion might be broken with that item.

I just feel that they try something in the jungle, making a certain set of champion strong, then get tired of that decision and completely change it make another set of champion very strong. It doesn't really make the jungle more diverse, it just changes who is more viable at a particular time and that is more my problem with it.

I would rather see cinderhulk and devourer evened out so both types of junglers are as strong as the other.

It's not that they're focusing on specific types of junglers currently. Riot has made the decision to focus a lot of their attention on the jungle this season and attempting to diversify it a little bit, and to some extent they've done a decent job. The downside to spending so much time working on the jungle is that it requires heavy balancing regularly through the season when you try and overhaul something like an entire lane, hence the reason groups of junglers fall into/out of favor based on the patch their on.
