@Meddler What ever happened to buffing Devourer Junglers post the removal of Devourer?

On the mid season patch, Devourer was replaced with Bloodrazor. A good change for the game as Sated Devourer + Rageblade was nuts at the time. However, you guys had said you'd have the Devourer Junglers on the radar. It's over 5 patches later and I see barely any changes.

For champions like Warwick and Aatrox, it's understandable. Those champions are up for a rework. But for Shyvana, Kayle, Jax, Yi and Xin Zhao? All of these champions were nerfed because of Sated Devourer and upon its removal have none of them seen a buff to compensate.

Kayle, Jax and Yi are in a fairly good position I can't speak about Xin but he seems okay to me. Shyvana definitely seems in a bad position but that probably won't get changed for a while.

Aatrox's rework is in like 10 years. Don't really think it's a good idea to leave him in the gutter.

Xin Zhao's last set of changes (auto Crits and an AD ratio on his heal) were designed to make Warrior better on him.

Not Riot's fault that people don't adapt.

Yi is fine, as his power comes from team comps. Yi has always been a "Low ELO" pub stomper against uncoordinated teams with 0 CC.

WW is getting his rework next, and will be out in a few months. (Expect December or January).

Jax is fine with the current Trinity Force, and if it weren't for gnar being top tier right now, Jax would be a fantastic pick top lane. Kayle is a touchy champ because she's a utility carry with different types of utility than Ashe. Personally I think a full VGU to make Kayle into a Utility ADC bot lane with her E kept in tact would be really freaking cool!

This so much. Udyr got all his core items nerfed. His base stats nerfed. His base stats NERFED again.

And THEN devourer was removed.

Please give the bear a tiny bit of love :|

I just want to be able to get a consistent win rate on my main champion again. Use to sit around 60-65% now I barely scrape through with 50-54%, Udyr is just UP, he shouldn't be classed as a Juggernaut because you can literally ignore his damage.

Sad times
