Patch 6.22

I played in the patch 6.22. The new changes in the jungle is very impressive and creative. However, i think it made many champions unbalanced. Today, I played against a Yasuo. Most of us know that he's easier to kill in the early games so we try to get kills on him before he gets his ult. I was playing Trundle, I almost killed him until an Ekko (jungle) came out of no where and ganked me with the red buff. It was a lvl 2 gank. Because junglers start at their buffs now, after finishing it, they will try to camp someone and get a kill. Playing safe isn't really an option either since the Yasuo can just farm up, get his crit items and dive me under turrets with the jungler. I think the new update benefits too much the champions that have cc because the junglers can gank with his red buff and it's a guaranteed flash used or kill. I also think that the plant that can reveal wards is just too op because reveals the wards that we use in the river to protect ourselves from ganks or to know the enemy junglers whereabouts. These changes also makes many junglers useless like Elise and Lee Sin because their AoE has a long cooldown. I think it's better if we go back to the previous jungle system. The champions were all balanced and we were more creative in our ganks. Because of that plant, a bronze player's gank will be similar to a challenger's gank. Furthermore, we played more smartly before because we had to decide which monster's to smite. Now, we can smite any monster and it won't make any impact on the game unlike before.

If you want balance, then everything should be reverted to season 2 when no champ had higher winrate than 55%, lower than 45%. It is just not the way this game is going. Nowadays, we need some random RNG like elemental dragons and lucky Jhin Q procs while incomprehensible scalings and utilities in all the skills so players need to take ages to learn new champs. The new plants are just way to add RNG and old simple click and kill champs like shaco, kat, vlad, GP, akali, rengar, etc.. are not allowed now. They all need some random utilities and skillshots.

havent gotten a chance to play it yet, but from what I hear people dont seem to like the plants, hopefully they will get removed prior to the start of season 7

Yeah, the plant are just too annoying. The enemy jg can easily steal a buff and escape. Even if you cornered him, he can use the plant to jump over the wall. These changes could actually ruin this game and make people more toxic and salty.
