Question about plants (honeysuckle)

Sorry i'm not on PBE, so can't post this there.

Honestly i like most of the ideas behind the plants. Blastcap - potential for some interesting plays in jungle scryer's bloom - not bad, need some alternative since they removing raptor smite honey.... this is the one i'm honestly afraid of. It feels like the game is already heavily in favor of champs who can clear waves really quickly, go back, roam, etc. but now they can trade, shove the wave, then wander down and heal to full?

This is the one thing i'm concerned about. I know the plant spawns deeper in the river, but that's still not very far for someone who can clear the entire wave in 5~ seconds.

Can i ask if there has been any thought or need for balancing around this?

which adcs are u thinking about that insta clears waves... cuz chances are only top or jungle will use honey suckle

junglers will go to those too fast and midlaners will get collapsed on if they leave lane without the intent to roam for kills bot or top soo im not too sure it will be easy for them to clear a wave and take the honeysuckle

u would only need them if u were half or less health too and that alone is almost a free kill if your jungler is decent and can see the signs-

is not well bot and mid or top and mid can collapse and get a free kill on a wandering midlaner just looking for the plant so maybe its not such an easy idea but dw i have thought about this too and i wanna see how it workds lol
