Jungle is currently a less desirable role than support, what is being done to address this?

I actually can't even queue for secondary jungle anymore because I get it in 80% of games, and I'm seeing an auto-filled jungle in probably 1/6 games.

This role is completely fucking terrible to play right now.

I fin love Jungle right now.

I just pwned my third Udyr in 3 days with Pyke .

This one I actually dueled to death 4 times. solo..... and ended a 18 minute game 9/2/7

And then 11/4/7 vs a Shaco in which I outright dueled their adc and shaco 3-4 times...

I mean literally every game I have right now is Jungle.... and I'm pulling 4+ KDAs every single game, even on the losses.

They don't seem to be doing anything at all to fix the horrible state of the jungle.

I doubt they're doing anything. TBH I've personally noticed this for several months now, because while I usually get support when I put Fill, I instead started getting Jungle about 95% of the time. It got to the point where I can't simply fill anymore, because I really can't jungle and I have no desire to learn because everyone seems incredibly toxic when I try XD

I feel like a lot of the issue is that people immediately blame the jungler for everything, so it's a more high-stress role with no more reward. That obviously doesn't apply to everyone and every game but that's my take on it, as it's why I have no desire to try it despite loving several jungle only champs (Eve anyone?).

Is every role except Mid just completely fucked now?

Support was the butt end of the joke for years, I get it.

Then people said Top lane was the new autofill role.

THEN the Jungle changes happened and people hated that.

And now 8.11 people hate Marksmen.

Is Mid really the only role that's stable?
