Friendly Reminder: Many of the problems of the game comes from 8.10

Don't know why Riot refuse to revert that trash change, which has originated A LOT of the cancer we have to deal right now

With one single change, you basically totally removed every way to play the jungle except one. Then, that one seemed to be ultratoxic out of pro play, so people began to complain and not enjoy the game.

Of course, how can you enjoy to be obligated to pick a champ that can win a fight to take the crab? Then, it translated into more fight and Midlaners being obligated to pick a champ that could defend the crab if they wanted to have a jungler that game

Also, Riot reduced exp in jungle at early, which translated into people being obligated to pick Xin zhao, Warwick or Lee, champs that can fight the crab and that can permagank, as farm jungle became basically troll.

Somehow Riot decided to keep in that path, and that ended with what we have today. It ended up ruining jungle and making top annoying to play.

I'm going to guess that was the scuttle change but I don't know since I CAN'T LOOK UP THE PATCH NOTES like where are they?

But also I completely disagree I believe many all jungle problems came from preseason of 7 since there was actual reason for those changes jungle did have WAY TOO MUCH pressure early game and something had to be done about it.

Like before that season 8 jungle was just lane gets camped 24/7.

If the preseason changes for 7 didn't happen then that wouldn't have happened and season 7 jungle was also not fun.

There are many patches that can be pointed to as sources for long-lasting negative impacts on the game. For example: 5.22 & 3.14 are 2 additional patches that have had severe ramifications on multiple champions & gameplay that are still felt very heavily even today.
