We usually hear only criticism here, but for once I want to use the board to tell to the developers what I liked the most of the preseason changes

  • Of the new Jungle
  1. Longer spawn of camps allows for junglers to both farm and gank. If you are not a mobile jungler you are not that worse compared to the others any more (as they could farm and gank way faster than you, there was no way your presence could compare)
  2. Buffs are less important for the junglers:** I can give them to the laners with less problems**. A few adjustments are need for the gromp as it should scale for tank as the krug scale with AS based junglers.
  3. The new jungle items!! I LOVE not being forced to finish building it. I usually build only the first upgrade, and then build other items! I usually build the full upgrade after 1 full item and full boots. 3.1) I LOVE that jungle items don't give gold. You are not as behind as before if you prefer to build something else first (I rush IBG on cho). PLEASE don't change it!!! 4)** Jungle objectives are more a team effort**. All the lanes care about the dragon, and we often have turtles/fights over it! I love the fact that a jungler is now valuable if he's a good objective controller, instead of the farm machine or gank machine they had to be before. It means that junglers that are poor duelist or only good in TF can show their presence earlier.
  • Game length Thanks God you shortened it! I have an average of about 30-35 mins per game now!! This is AWESOME!!! Previously it was like "it's 19:05.. I wish I could play, but I'm eating at 20:00, so I'm not sure I'll make it in time". Early game champs have the opportunity to show their strength but late game champs can still come back.

  • Baron buff What it's needed to turn the game! A sneaky baron is so rewarding, and fighting over it add that thrill when a team wants to stall as long as they can. But still, you are not overwhelmed when the opponents have it, as they need to be near the minions, and splitpushing may force several of them to back (especially in not organized teams)

There are other things I really love of the new season, but these are the major ones! Please, keep on going on this route, fixing the minor problems (cough WW cough) and making the experience better!

And what do you actually like of the change?
