Proposed Hunters Machete changes

The Hunters Machete changes didn't really change anything in the way riot hoped (i mean, tank junglers still arent as good as carry junglers, and tbh it was just a general early game nerf to junglers), but it did do one thing, that i believe was unintentional: It gave fiddlesticks a quite hard early game nerf compared to other junglers, for ABSOLUTELY no reason. the reason being that fiddlesticks does not autoattack monsters, nor does he actually receive damage from them. this makes hunters machete have absolutely zero value on him.

thus i propose to let hunter machete do it's 10 bonus damage on procs of channeled abilities. I cant see any hard abuse cases as the only other jungler with a channeled main ability is pantheon, and this ability has a heavyhanded dmg reduction when used on minions and monsters. this might also get panth a bit back into the jungle after rito changed his ulti to near unusability (i mean seriously x.x it takes foreeeever to channel, and even the "flash to move ulti" thing has been removed, which is dumb, seeing as you can still do it with stuff like lux ulti, thresh hooks, jarvan e-q combos etc.).

I actually don't buy machete on fiddles ever. It's easier to just go amp tome instead, which builds into things you actually want as opposed to pigeon holey Riot approved builds.

All of my this. Amplifying tome and a mana pot in case I die / get blue stolen.

yea i tend to do this too just for the ganks and earlier hourglass. it's just sorta annoying that it reduces clear time and gold income from camps, which means that if your ganks ARENT successful you will end up further behind than other junglers.

It's also possible OP is using chronological view and just added a comment at the end. If you view it in chronological view, it looks fine.

I think the problem here is integration between the two views, not an intrinsic problem with either view.
