What do new jungle changes mean for laners?

I'm a mid laner, and I would like to know what I need to not worry or start worrying about the "new" upcoming jungle. I kbow rift scuttlers are more important, but what will that mean for me? Do I ward the rift scuttle side so that the jungle doesn't go buff buff scuttle mid gank? Do I hover the side without the scuttler? But that could always be a mind game for the junglers. Any thoughts?

Basically don't get in trouble early because a jungler is less likely to help you out as soon.

At the same time there's less pressure from the enemy jungler so you have more pressure as a laner and so does the opponent.

Scuttle crab will be highly contested early. Just pay attention to where your jungler is. If the enemy has a Graves and you have a jungler that can't duel him early then your jungler is probably just going to concede it. Considering how I don't think any jungler can duel a Graves with red buff at level 2, it's safe to assume he's there.

I'd say expect quicker ganks from Lee sins, jarvans, shacos. Any one with high damage lvl 2 ganks potential. And if they're not there at level 2, then you'll see them later in the game. So early damage jg's: expect lvl 2 ganks. Late game jg's: don't expect to see them till probably 6 or your 7.
