So jg was only strong because it was an early game role in an early meta
Jg is strong innately early game because of the +1 ability early game. That is something you just cannot get rid of unless you severely alter the jungle role.
, junglers are useless outside of snowballing,
Allow me to clarify further. Let us say you are playing a champion such as Evelynn. If she fails to snowball early enough, then her late game capability drops because of her innate weaknesses similar to pantheon who is also an early game champion.
There re some champions who can maintain relevancy throughout due to utility, such as Sejuani, but you're still not relying on them to carry the game outside of snowballing. That's something ADC's and Midlane tend to do due to the champions used.
and nobody wants to jungle because people think the role is too strong?
Did you ignore what I just said?
"The reason jg is so umpopular though is due to this thread. Unnecessary hate and demands for a nerf.
If jgers no longer have an impact why jg?"
It was literally IN THE POST YOU QUOTED.
So where did you get the whole
"no one jungles because the role is too strong" from?
People dont jungle because people hate junglers unnecessarily.
"Jungler didn't gank my lane."
"better jungler wins."
"Jungle is too strong, it influences the game too strongly, nerf the jungle."
Like...dude...I wouldn't want to jungle either if it was receiving such unnecessary backlash.
when they're universally deemed too strong
According to whom?
Jungler is the role with the most impact prior to pre-season changes because of how early game mattered in season 8. Therefore, its not illogical for the role with the stronger early game potential to have the greatest game influence if everything is decided in early game.
Whereas, if you look at other seasons where late game hyper carries were more important, S5 and S6 if my memory serves me right, you saw junglers have less influence because the late game mattered more with protect the kog'maw comps.
and tied with ADC as the most toxic role.
I haven't heard this before to be honest.
They're not victims in capacity outside of their own headspace.
It sounds more along the lines of you are self victimizing yourself. The junglers are too strong! They need a nerf because I don't matter as much!
Only difference is, you twisted it to suggest junglers are complaining about being victims.
What is actually happening is they dominate games early on with how strong the role is
Yes, because junglers are an EARLY game role.
There is literally no method by which you can alter this situation outside of enforcing farming type junglers who were carry types such as Master Yi.
and then scaling into being monsters later as well with how strong the champion subset is.
Which is entirely dependent upon the champion subset, which is a symptom rather than the actual cause.
But leave it to this board to call others biased when they don't even know how their own role functions.
Considering you have difficulty responding to blatantly made statements, I would not suggest anyone is biased here apart from yourself, let alone capable of knowing how the jungle role functions.
Seriously, complaints such as yours are the very reason junglers function the way they do currently.
Back when items such as Wriggle Lantern, Devourer, and other hyper items were available people complained about it being a farm meta. The items which enforced such a thing were altered and changed, so it shifted to early game ganking junglers.
So when you nerf the jungler role by reducing gold and exp further, you enforce a gank meta because junglers now need to be more aggressive to remain useful later on in the game. This leads to a champion subset which favors fast, healthy clears, with a strong emphasis on early game ganking.
When you increase the gold and exp, you enforce a stronger farm meta, and have less early game ganking, but more late game carry potential.
In both situations, you complain the jungler role has too much influence. So do what was suggested earlier and
Dont post.

I feel jungles should be weaker than laners until x amount of mins into the game.
I dont mind good ganks. But it feels bad having a jungle simply walk into lane and out stat you before anyone can reasonably get items
Except that they don't outside of extremely early where they can get level 2 before laners get level 1.
In terms of a first item basis, the jungle items are weaker than laner items period.
They receive less gold.
They receive less exp.
Jungler's cannot just stat check a laner unless the laner is already behind.
