A counter to devourer junglers?

i am new to the jungle but, i have been hearing a lot opinions about the devourer junglers being too strong right now. i was wondering if Nunu is a good champion to deal with these junglers since he specializes in counter-jungling and he could potentially deny the enemy jungler of scuttle control neutral objectives and if your good the enemys own jungle monsters.

i am also interested in hearing on how people deal with these junglers through champion picks and playstyles so i can get a better understanding how to deal with this new item.

If someone like Udyr sees that motherfucker in his jungle nunu aint going to do shit. Same with shyv. Udyr will just stun you and by the time the second stun comes in his top/mid/bot laner will be there to kill you. There is no counerjungle other than taking scuttle

Any competent jungler will just figure out where you're starting as Nunu and alter their own start to ensure they lose nothing early. it's possible to be stated by 20 minutes even when not power farming, once they reach that point, they will just kill you with-in a couple seconds even if you build tank. It's better to honestly just pick a champion that abuses the item better.

You need to gank and put wards in the enemy jungler's jungle. Typically places like the bush near their wraiths or bush kind of between blue and wolves.

Pretty much what you do in every game. Honestly if the enemy jungler's focusing on farming, it's basically like playing a 4v5.

Early game jungler. You don't need to invade necessarily, but if you are busy making #LCSbigplays down bot while the devourer jg is trying to get stacks, odds are the game state will prove to be too tough to crack for just the jungler to carry.

You don't wanna share stacks, so people will probably be greedy and be not handing blues or stuff out, so that helps even more

Shyvana and Udyr will wreck your face in, even without devourer being sated yet. Maybe Trundle could counter jungle, and escape them, or wreck their faces in (skill matchup against those 2)
