The issue with Jungle itemization

BLIGHTBRINGER··1 votes·724 views

Lately I noticed that a lot of junglers if not most, stopped buying jungle items as their first items.

All assassins/fighters just buy Duskblade and other lethality items, completely skipping the Warrior Item.

Well, in most cases, the junglers need items to help with clear early on (i.e. Shyv or WW rush Tiamat before jungle item). Duskblade could be the need for early burst for ganks or control, but yeah, it does seem to be an odd item to rush, relatively speaking.

Warrior Enchantement needs to have some sort of passive to make it a good first item to purchase.

In fact Warrior Enchantment is the only jungle item without any passives.

Beyond the lackluster 10% cdr.

Duskblade is extremely effective as it gives a serious advantage to junglers, being able to alert you to enemy wards and makes you invisible to them. Thats why it is rushed so often.
