For everyone complaining about the jungle

It's Preseason. I don't like the new jungle too. I agree its hard. But just have patience, Riot will make changes.

To all those that are thinking of giving up on LoL b/c of this, it's still Preseason. There will be changes.

Stay positive.

EDIT: I should make it clear that while I agree jungle is hard, I also respect the change because personally I would get bored of playing the same jungle. As many have replied, it's good to succumb to it, and that is what I'm for. By changes I am referring to certain consequences of new jungle such as 100% WW for Jungle or the like. I heard Riot was trying to have diversity so they will make changes regarding that once they realize how it's very hard for Champions like Evelynn and other non-sustain champions to jungle.

It not that difficult, it is rather different. Accept the change and change your play, try something different.

Jungle should be hard. The days of Orianna clearing both jungles and midlane were the worst time in League history.

I understand where you're coming from and agree with you, but people also need to realize that it is a two way street. Players need to learn to adapt the jungle and realize they need to experiment with new runes, masteries, and routes.

Personally, I've been trying sustain/auto-attacking reliant jungles out first, and eventually branch out to tanks and mages. Trundle jungle is super fun if anyone was curious. (:

Yeah, they will fix some stuff and i mean also it will definitely take some getting used to. It took me a while everytime they changed jungle (i started playing before ranked came out) but it always ends up working out somehow. I don't think its that bad right now, feels closer to season 1 especially with the WW popularity right now, but I've found decent success as xin in the jungle my past few games

Understandably, it's going to take a while for things to normalize. Those were some big changes. Not a huge fan myself, but I'm trying to give it a fair shake.

Did you really just tell us to stay positive without posting Lux 's picture? You really missed out on a golden opportunity.

It being hard is the point, why are so many babies only happy if things are easy mode.

I love the new jungle. Cannot wait to see what it looks like once Riot balances everything out!

I would rather the people crying give up LoL, tbh. Strategy games require an element of natural selection to weed out the clueless, and god knows we have enough

It swapped the ideal jungler lists. So if you played one that got boned, yeah it sucks. OTOH some guys like Aatrox and Cho'Gath are getting played more so if you like those it's great. It was too easy before, which meant it was gold spiking co-ordinated teams and snowballing the game too much. I would like to see more changes that reduce overall gold gains, not just in the jungle.

Some of the specific things like having an infinite stacking dmg item are real broken, though.
