Scuttle crab spawn time needs to be reverted

A lot of jungle mains are already frustrated. Just revert it please, comment below. Get riot to notice because this is f*g dumb and I believe it is so stupid because they mention that laners help their jungle secure the crab. How is this a problem?? You cant just answer a call like this and slap on a nerf because players are being outsmarted? You should not be punishing people for new strategies. That was a strategy made by players and rarely anyone does it. So why does every jungler on earth have to suffer? You also realise this is bad for early game junglers, xin zhao jarvan iv etc. You are completely negating early game junglers to the state they become unplayable. Jungling was always about preventing your dumb laners from inting. By making this change first bloods are easier than ever now, because you cant kill a crab to prevent the enemy jungler from ganking making laners even more free, so why are you making such a pointless change? Then it makes league very meta specific game because you are trying to bring tanks back in power by pulling the plug on other junglers and is unwelcoming.You already ruin players jungle pathing and reduce sustain for junglers because they can’t take the crab, specifically bad for new players in the jungle. Anything i havent covered, let me know. Riot needs to realise everything theyre doing is stupid because it is!!

This change is badly needed, it doesn’t constrict and rush pathing as much as the old scuttle. If two junglers parallel their pathing and meet at scuttle at 2:05 it’s an absolute lv 2 shitshow. Giving us an extra minute gives junglers and laners more breathing room. Keep in mind that scuttle will allow for more gold/xp, it’s now possible to get level 4 at 3:25ish

No I prefer not being forced to make awkward fights when I'm hardly lvl 2 to roam down to help the jgler secure crab. I literally had a jungler afk because I tried to get lvl 2 before going down. This destroyed the viability of some champions who aren't good lvl 1/2 and effected almost nothing to junglers good or bad. I play ALOT and I got at d3 so I'm in no way a bad player. This shit killed Volibear (my main) since he spikes hard lvl 3 and is a pushover pre 3

I just summed it up perfectly in another post "Jungle - I can't start blue buff now"

It's factual, the jg is easily predisposed to jglers that are better starting red buff, it's 100% obviously factually broken. Jg's that are better off starting blue do not have a single champ in top ten at the moment.

Check out the images, pretty damning and obvious.

this was a nerf to early game junglers intentionally...

so true. it feels like that now you depend on your teammates to win a game , you need them for all , you need them to do crab, drake , baron, herold. it seems like riot is seeing that we junglers are babys that need to be protected by their laners. but what really happens is that your laners now dies easilier , u have no river vision , cuz they nerfed wards too , you get flamed for anything that happens now and you have to play tanks to go well and guess what you rely on your teammates , riot is trying to make junglers just afk farming and wait for fights to appear , tank all damamge and with lucky you win, otherwise u loose. welcome to jungle 101 2019 patch 9.9 ....worst thing ever

ABSOLUTLY NOT scutle spawning later is just a good thing since there will be less monkey in the river around lv 2-3 to play LCS CLOWNFIESTA for the scutle im still saying we should just remove it but later spawn is a welcome change so no its a good change.

IDC one way or the other tbh. Junglers are just useless these days. Pushed under tower? No gank. No minions around? No ganks. champion has half health and you're near full? No ganks. Bot lane pushed under tower? No ganks. Dragon is up? Well too bad jungler doesn't go for it.

And then from a junglers perspective. Come in mid for a gank or any lane really. And laner(s) just sitting there farming under turret letting you go in a lone. Ask them why they didn't dive with you and they'll say "you didn't ping" Later you ping and they don't respond to it.

Camp gets stolen, setting you behind a level. So you're level 5 and everyone has their ults. Laners cry cry cry cry cry that they didn't get a gank. Find the enemy in your jungle with laners pushed to their tower? ping for help, no one comes.
