Upset about the 5.10 jungle nerf

I am upset about this in the notes,

> Monster Leashing > We're cleaning up a few exploit cases where solo ranged attackers are resetting monster aggro to clear camps without taking damage. Be careful with those leashes! > NEWRANGED RESET SHENANIGANS When a monster loses aggro due to range, its leash counter increases by 1 (the same as if that monster had targeted a different champion). If the monster re-acquires a ranged target after being hit, it will also increase its leash counter by 1 (the same as if that monster had re-acquired its original target). This basically means that ranged attackers can now only solo-reset a monster camp 3 times, down from 6. > LEASH RANGE 750 ⇒ 700 > MAXIMUM RESETS 5 ⇒ 6

Controling agro resets is a Jungle skill that can really reduce the damage you take when clearing. This skill has drawbacks though, kiteing like this slows your clear time. Some squishier junglers MUST learn this to clear their camps and stay alive. (like Evelynn, and Elise). What this nerf does is make it so you have to get hit once every 3 unanswered ranged hits. I think being punished for skillfully applying unanswered DPS is unfair.

Evelynn uses her q to kite jungle mobs

Yea! Ranged champions should totally be able to clear without taking damage just because you spent two minutes watching a youtube video on how to kite jungle monsters!

Ranged junglers have never been dominant so I see no reason why they shouldn't get some perks.
