Took hiatus early into S4, just returning... biggest tips?

Hello everyone!

I haven't played since early in S4, it was my first season of playing ranked after hitting level 30, and I got placed in a low bracket and then fell farther. I didn't leave because of my play, but simply because I had dedicated a lot to first getting to 30, and then prepping for ranked, and then trying to jam in ranked -- and I just needed to step away and do other things.

Anyway, I've decided to return, as I have too much money tied up in champions and runes to ever NOT come back. :) What would be your biggest tips for returning to the current game climate after a long hiatus?

I would say I played jungler the most and that it was my preferred role, but as we all know, you have to play everything -- so I tried to be as competent as possible in all lanes.

Thanks very much for any input you can provide on best tips for returning from hiatus!

only 2 changes really that made the game more different than it has ever been i think

base gates...there are these lil wholes in the wall now for your team to enter/exit but the enemy team cant

the jungle is now very difficult... increased spawn timers... increased creep damage and hp... increased everything it creeps are strong mmmkay?

Baron and dragon are painfully important now, be sure to ward and take them whenever possible. Oh, and new Items and champs are a thing: Kalista Gnar Braum RekSai Azir item 3504 item 3801 item 2138 item 2137 item 2139 item 2140 item 3709 item 3717 item 3721 item 3725 item 3708 item 3716 item 3724 item 3720 item 3707 item 3714 item 3719 item 3723 item 3508 item 2053 item 3512 item 3800 and defensive items are cheaper, along with item builds being abit different.
