Since Scuttle change prevents lvl 2 ganks way better than XP nerf. Can you revert XP nerf now?
The reason why the XP nerfs were made was because they wanted to prevent junglers from making early ganks and beeing oppressive in the first minutes of the game.
What happened after the first nerf (4 camps to get lvl 3 instead of 3 camps)? The Junglers now ganked even earlier, right after their buff, with level 2.
So, what did RIOT do? They nerfed Jungle XP again, but that didn't stop junglers to lvl 2 gank the lanes. The only thing it did is that there are really big gaps between Levels in early game now, which makes jungling feel really odd and "not right". Often as jungler you are lvl 4 when top and mid are 6 and you don't catch up until lvl 9-10. That leads to very frustating moments where your toplaner begs for a gank but you just cant do it beceause the enemy Darius is lvl 6 already and would smash your lvl 4 ass with ease.
With the Scuttle change they finally hit the right thing. It actually works to prevent lvl 2 ganks. I can speak from personal experience. The reason why i could lvl 2 gank so good before the change was, that the Scuttle was the perfect follow up after the early gank. I could do red -> lvl 2 gank -> and then the Scuttle was right on my way through mid, filling up my almost empty mana bar. It was just a perfect stepping stone for a transition gank, making this route viable.
Now without Scuttle i fuck my own pathing really hard when i go on lane after buff. I have to go all the way back to Krugs or Raptors and even then i would have mana problems if i dont start with Hunters Talisman which gives me mana but a slower first clear. This change makes the oldschool "standard" clear (Red -> top side Jungle) worth considering again (especially for junglers with mana).
So... good work on that. Even if it is kinda bad for me. But you finally figured out something that helps.
#BUT...
this change makes the whole "my mid/top is 2 lvls higher than me and ungankable for a long time" thing not better. I can understand that you wanted to prevent lvl 2/3 opression from junglers with the XP nerfs. It was an uggly but needed option, like "Monsterhunter" is an ugly option to prevent gold funneling, but you found a smarter way now. So pls give us back a bit jungle XP so we can gank (our mid/top) not with lvl 2/3 but at least with lvl 4/5/6+
