So Riot, what about Warrior?

Visigoth··1 votes·220 views

Every other jungle item has gotten reworked now. Juggernaut became Cinderhulk, Magus became Runeglaive (RIPKarthus jungle), and Devourer got Sated.

And there's stale, old Warrior. Ability-based assassins in the jungle are pretty much the only champions who can use it, and unlike the other 3 items, it's a waste of a slot to keep as a 6th item. Hell, pretty much Khazix and Rengar are the only junglers right now who would prefer Warrior over the other 3. And Rengar usually doesn't even get a jungle item, he just gets Trailblazer then gets his core items. And Kha'Zix only gets it because he needs early armor Pen to be relevant, and item 3142 is horribly optimized for a champion who mainly uses abilities. The only other meta junglers I can see preferring Warrior are MonkeyKing and Shaco, but they're hardly ever played. Other than that, well, at least some off meta champions can use it, like Darius Zed Renekton Jayce, but not only are they pretty bad in the jungle, but Renekton and Darius can just go Cinderhulk, and Zed can go Devourer and Splitpush with that bonus AS.

Is Pantheon not a current meta jungler?
