So the new jungle is harder

Gorgannan·Dec 6, 2014·1 votes·597 views

I had heard that the new jungle would have multiple buffs from smiting monsters, but, I'm not gonna lie, other than the giant frog and the boulders, there aren't any real buffs.

If the new jungle is harder, why don't they give other monsters actual buffs to give?

Think of a buff that would benefit sustain champs less and champions without more. Put that on the birdies.

Think of a buff that would help farming junglers gank that wouldn't influence a champion who inherently has a lot of gapclosers or CC. Put that on wolves.

???

Profit?

Those chicken give you ward detection. That's a good one Wolves tell you if anyone is invading Frog gives you 50+ poison dmg Golems give you stun Wtf you want? It's meant for the jungle otherwise lakers will buy smite too

This doesn't help any junglers with their now awful clear/sustain/reliability on items they can't afford.

It's great, but I wouldn't really call it a buff.

Wolves either.

It's not about sustain

The idea is this. As a jungler, you can choose to smite a specific monster who will give you something that will benefit you -chickens help you gank, something that's insane, and starve kinglets as well as give you some gold

wolves help you track enemy jungler in your jungle, or helps you track the enemy in his jungle, it is effective for counter jungling -the frog helps with dueling and clearing. It has 48 poison dmg more than devourer -the golems help with clearing
buffs help with clearing

I'm aware of what it does.

It does it badly. The number of unviable junglers is insane. I am sure they'll wait quite a bit of time before tweaking it for fear of we're just doing it wrong, but the current jungle is overtuned.

I'm suggesting interesting changes instead of "nerf their damage, make everyone viable and WW even better."

If you make everyone viable in terms of clear speed and sustain, what's the point of playing jugglers like shy who have jungle clearing doped but no yanking

You are asking for the same issue like s4, everyone can clear jungke, even karma and Blayne, so the only think people focused on was champs who had gambling ability like lee and kha

The only thing they need to fix is trailblazer because that's a must item for clearing.

The location of the wolf buff is better for invading than protecting.
