Nocturne issues in new patch to jungle (to Riot)

Runtillion·Nov 21, 2014·1 votes·316 views

I won't say I'm great at LoL, but I have played a reasonable amount of Nocturne. Before the update he wasn't the easiest jungler, he didn't really get large killstreaks, and besides his ult, he wasn't much of a threat late game. Before the latest patch I had struggled with making him more viable late game, but now his jungle is slow and difficult. To keep up even with the lowest level on the team, I now have to spend way more time in the jungle. This is obviously a problem because it means less ganks, and still slow jungling.

I'm not trying to rant, I just genuinely hope riot will see this and consider my plight. I know noc isn't exactly one of the more popular champions. He didn't show up often in patches because he was fairly balanced, but now he feels underpowered. I know you guys have a lot going on, but I that would be greatful if you'd at least take a look.
thanks

What kind of route are you taking right now? That can be a very large part of it.

Are you getting a decent leash?

I've tried a couple, but really, without taking the blue first, it's still difficult. To you're second question. Yes I have, but that doesn't have a major impact in the later jungling.

One thing I've been doing recently is killing the crab once ive finished the 3rd camp. It can be risky but the extra gold will help a bit. You really can't buy many wards anymore. On my first back as Eve; who has an even harder time but faster clearing; I buy at least 2 red pots. Grab the 2nd buff, smite it, gank.
