Tiamat and current jungle

I don't get why Riot thinks it is okay that almost every AD jungler gets an early Tiamat to cut down their clear speeds. After the S6 changes, the jungle got a huge overhaul that should reward farmers and punish gankers that gank unsuccessfully. Job done, but with all of this AoE there is in the jungle right now, people just get early Tiamat to slow down their clear speeds; and I really feel like it has been like this ever since the S6 changes.

It is not even because people finish Hydra, instead they just sit on their tiamat and clear. Playing a single-target jungler like Warwick/Shaco is just unviable due to this amount of AoE that is needed in the jungle. Meanwhile, champions like Lee Sin, Vi and Zac are clearing the jungle with no trouble thanks to all of the AoE abilities in their kits AND having super powerful ganks.

TLDR: More single target focused camps, like Gromp. Lots of health, but also so singletarget junglers can have a chance without being forced to buy tiamat every game.

Thoughts?

There are 3 single target camps, and 3 camps with more then one. Its balanced

So then go take the enemy's jungle camps, scuttle, kill champs and take objectives. No one is forcing you to full clear every single camp

The ones getting tiamat are the ones who will naturally build titanic. They arent doing it because they need it to clear the jungle
