Jungle Item Idea - Forge System

Aheadatime·5/13/2016, 7:39:39 PM·1 votes·266 views

Just had a thought. Might be good, might be completely ass backwards.

What if instead of having jungle-specific "final" items (bloodrazors, cinderhulk, etc.), we simply forged our "basic" jungle items into whatever items we wanted from the shop?

So you build one of these; item 3715 item 3706 item 3711

Then you "forge" it into any item in the shop. You have to have the other item completed in your inventory, and there would be a combine cost of something, like 400g. Some examples;

item 3706 + item 3025 item 3715 + item 3153 item 3711 + item 3065

Or whatever really. This could have a few different benefits;

  • No more broken/unbalanced jungle items
  • No more broken/unbalanced jungle champions due to above
  • More diversity in jungle
  • Better slot efficiency for junglers

Thoughts?

The thing is a lot of junglers have kits that are toned down by weaker early games via expensive items that are lesser than other items and a summoner spell that takes gold to make useful.
