Patience

"Leashing Leashing makes sense. More sense.

Over the seasons, leashing went from being a set of basic rules to having so many edge-cases it felt almost random when something would reset or wouldn’t, leaving you without a good sense for what caused it (and more importantly, how to avoid it in the future). With that in mind, we built a new system - called Patience - to better support future jungling patterns and behaviors.

NEW! PATIENCE - Jungle monsters now have a ‘Patience’ characteristic. Monsters no longer reset their aggression based on distance or positioning - Instead, once the monster’s Patience is reduced to zero, the monster will reset and return to their original position. During this reset, they rapidly regenerate health and do not respond to further aggression.

LOSING MY PATIENCE - Monsters lose Patience under the following conditions: When a monster is in an aggressive state but can’t find any targets to attack (ex. its target died or became untargetable) When a monster’s target is too far away from the monster’s initial spawn location or the monster is VERY far away from its initial spawn location When the monster is forced to switch targets

IT COMES WITH AGE - Large monsters display their Patience in a meter above their heads IN MY HAPPY PLACE - Once a monster has recovered to 90% health, they regain all of their Patience YANKING MY CHAIN - Abilities that pull or displace monsters no longer completely reset the monster’s aggro if they already had a previous target"

This is the patch notes from the latest patch.

No where in this list do I see a detail about, oh I don't know, REGENERATING HEALTH WHILE THE CHAMPION IS RIGHT IN FUCKING FRONT OF YOU!! WHAT IS THIS SHIT!?

I'm right in front of Red Buff in the enemy jungle and I attack him and he just regens health. I damage him more. Patience bar goes down again and he heals again. Back to full health. Repeat for a full minute. Then enemy jungler comes up and kills me and I'm trying to figure out why the FUCK I can't kill red after killing 5 Red Buffs in the match so far. Literally, just eating all creep camps alive then I can't kill a Red Buff? WHAT THE FUCK!?

And yes to answer your question, I am upset. Getting killed by an enemy jungler after verifying their return to their base and having plenty of time to kill his jungle, and having it all wasted because I can't kill Red Buff. Who wouldn't be upset? It wasn't my fault and I have no idea how to prevent it. I can kill dragon with plenty of health to spare, but I can't kill Red Buff? Really? Since when is Red Buff harder than Baron??
