Riots success with new jungle, thank you riot
So I have seen a lot of gripes and complaints about the new jungle making it harder for their favorite champ to jungle, I just wanted to make this post expressing my opinion being someone who thinks riot has succeeded in making more jungle diversity possible. Most people I see posting about they're favorite champ sucking in the new jungle, likely are still starting jungle as if it were season 4. My first time trying out the jungle changes I got WRECKED a couple time string khazix jungle. Until I learned what the buffs did and found a first clear path that worked. :) after expalaining the importance of saving smite for red and getting leash from bot it helped them play thier squishes they were having trouble with in new jungle and with the people that have got the hang of it I've seen more viable non meta picks in the jungle instead of just the blind monk. Don't get me wrong the new jungle is challenging, and forces you to THINK about what you're gonna do next, clear Krugs? Who do I smite? Should I gank mid or keep farming to keep up in level? It's a lot more fun and keeps you on your toes. The new jungle items work great and are a great solution and are the key to making more champs viable. Only problem is/was gold deficiency but I see riot is working for that goldylox zone ATM and with the amount of enjoyment new jungle has brought me individually, I SAY THANK YOU RIOT. You're changes were for the most part well balanced and well thought out. And I wish the balance team best of luck in ironing out the wrinkles for S5!!!
Anyone else have success in the new jungle? Questions and comments below. This is one of my first posts and I look forward to being an active member of these forums. (I'm not gonna proofread this as I am at work lol so be nice to my grammar)
