My problem with the Devourer patch an still going on.

***EDIT : *** TL;DR Bring back stable picks (i.e. tanks) instead of buffing the snowball heavy champion. Closer games = More fun

The main problem I have with the last few patch is that you keep buffing snowbally characters and nerfing stable options.

Tanks. I'm not talking only Maokai. But tanks overall are now useless. In the jungle, they'll get outscaled HARD no matter what happens to their Devourer counterparts. And not only that, but you also nerf Cinderhulk. If you want to be competitve against a Devourer jungler you basically have to scale faster than them, but once they reach sated, there's no coming back.

Juggernauts. Once again these characters basically run over the top lane tanks, but IN THE SAME PATCH, you nerf to the ground Maokai and Shen. (Without talking about the various armor items getting nerfed). Right now solo queue is ran by these champions and only them. And there's basically nothing going on to stop them.

Yes LC$ wise, it's better because people might actually start building devourer someday... but meanwhile in solo queue, there's not a single game where it's something else than Stomp or get Stomped. The "safe pick" aka "wait or the teamfight" picks are dead. And this is why I find the game less and less enjoyable. THere's less and less epic comebacks because snowbally characters are easier and easier to get rolling (at least the one you want to see Riot)

I understand that you want to see stuff settle before actually acting (especially with juggernaut). But it has been 3 patches that devourer junglers run the jungle and nothing has been done to even try to settle them down.
