[Graves Rant Inside] So you remove Nidalee's W Trap Snare and her W Reset.
BUT GRAVES CAN STILL F*CKING PERMAKITE CAMPS WITH HIS BASIC ATTACK KNOCKBACKS AND NEVER HAVE TO USE POTIONS/FLASK CHARGES.
I played so much pre-nerf Nidalee last season that after not playing her for something like 6 months she's still my 2nd most-played champion by about 4k.
Why is it okay that he can dominate Jungle for 12 months and not actually have the real issue addressed? I can't think of a single Ranged Jungler that actually takes next-to-no damage on their first clear.
Don't get me wrong either. I'm okay with Graves' overall power right now, but his early game is way too easy. He gets way too much free reign simply because he's so healthy. What the actual fuck am I meant to do when a Graves comes into my Jungle full HP with two Flask Charges and a 400 Range advantage? He even gets a Defensive steroid on top of his W Utility and Two Dashes.
I really don't care how strong Graves is as a Champion, but he has no fucking right to Jungle in his current state. His kit has no trade-offs for being ranged.
