Dear Riot: Fix the jungle

Seriously, as a former jg main trying to escape I get autofilled into JG more than I get my new position, I can't even imagine how bad others feel. There is clearly a problem and it NEEDS to be addressed, the JG has become a super sensitive role that has to be played to near perfection, which on it's own is fine.

HOW it needs to be played is the problem. All that we can play if we want to do well is one-dimensional hypercarry/duel champs and it's EXTREMELY boring, even for those of us comfortable in the JG. I can't imagine the horror for people NOT comfortable in it.

TL;DR Fix the JG or just empty it out and go 2/1/2 because it's REALLY bad right now. Putting JGers so far behind solo lanes is forcing us to play only the most powerful junglers which is nauseating at best and makes me want to quit entirely by forcing me to stay in the JG

Then on top of having to play to perfection, your success is almost 100% dictated by which team has laners that rotate into jg better if both JG players are evenly matched. (which is thankfully more rare due to all the autofills lol)

Seriously though I want to quit the game because as a JG main I'm trying to leave the JG and you wont let me. I'm frustrated, this game is NOT fun anymore. The JG is NOT fun.

I’ve flat out stopped playing because of it. Jumped on the ff14 train and until I see some jungle changes that actually make the role even a little fun again, I won’t be looking back.

buff the jungle experience so you're only 1 level behind laners instead of 3.

I have been a jg main for years now and am not going to jg main this season after the changes. It is simply disheartening to play extremely well only to be lvl 5 while everyone else is lvl 6. That is if you don't get drg because that gives you no xp. I deal with a lot of bs that riot throws at me when I am simply trying to enjoy myself but this one is just too much. I am going top from now on and play a tank with pure tank gear and just one shot everyone. That is what riot wants, so be it.

Dear OP: Learn to adapt. The Jungle is in a healthy state for the game. Other Junglers (even those that dont play jungle that are now getting autofilled to jungle) are doing fine. The game changes over time. Get over it.
