So how DO you counter sated devourer junglers?

Other than pick another sated jungler

and picking a warrior is statistically just an awful option ... and so is picking a tank

By taking advantage of the fact that MasterYi 's early ganks are absolute garbage and sated devour encourages him to spend even less time helping his lanes. Literally all you have to do is gank while he is jacking off in his jungle, once your lanes get snowballed with your help, you can start warding his jg and your team will collapse on him every time he tries to farm.

I main warrior and tank junglers and i find this to be an inefficient option.

They will always get ahead of you in farm, they can always countergank you if they place wards correctly which isnt hard they can consistently fight you in the river, especially people like Tryndamere or XinZhao

and there are 3 outcomes in the warrior v devourer matchup... you either win your lanes for them, and win you try your hardest and still come out ahead, and lose, or your lanes give first blood, and you lose.

your lanes cannot lose and you still win, you're simply outscaled by virtue of the fact that he has a sated. it's just over at that point.

you might only be addressing the master yi problem, but i dont even think he's the largest offender. Kayle and XinZhao all have fairly strong early ganks themselves. how do you exploit early that which has an early game?

I counterjungle when they have devourer, picking champs that can bully them out.

Skarner's really nice when they have a Yi. Push them out of their jungle provided you didn't kill them outright, take their camps, then use their buffs to gank. They won't countergank you because they feel the need to get those stacks.

More often than not I can get an enemy team surrender before the enemy jungle can get sated.

what's funny is that ive actually been on the receiving end of this, playing kayle against a lee sin. it didnt matter how many creeps he took, i eventually was going to get a sated out. it was gonna happen somehow. i can call for help in my own jungle and it's risky to counterjungle unless you know where they are. too bad we can't ever see them because they either dont come out to gank or they gank lanes that they know they can get a kill in.

the point is that sated devourer is supposed to be some huge investment when there's too many champions that have an early game strong enough to get through it without experiencing a dip in power or window of vulnerability

have a greater impact than them in the early game

deny them scuttle, deny them dragons, don't let them just afk farm their stacks

then when they're stuck at inhibitor turrets the devourer jungler will kind of just be meh because they'll hit their spike too late for it to matter.

this only works to a point your idea is "make sure all 3 lanes win" which is an impossibility

You have to win hard and win early. Even if you do counterjungle and shut down the enemy jungler, when they eventually reach Sated they will still be able to 1v3 your team.
