Anyone Miss The Effects Of Smiting Jungle?

I think the effect from smiting Gromp/Wolves/Raptors/Krugs (order of preference) were very awesome. Smiting jungle is boring now there's no reason to smite any specific camp.

Not implying anything against the plants, they're awesome too, and the smite heal is massive, but the old smite effects should stay too. Raptor effect would maybe be too much ward clear though, maybe change that to an attack speed buff.

I miss the Gromp buff.

I feel like it helped out tanky junglers like Sejuani a lot.

I do but I see how having both that and plants would be too much

I just wish they wouldnt have removed gromp buff AND made krugs and raptors harder to kill it has made single target junglers so trash I dont even bother with raptors before bami's cinder

the scryer plant makes up for wolf smite and raptor smite buff but there is nothing that replaces the gromp poison for single target junglers and no krug stun for the other aoe junglers who might have trouble with gromp or buffs.

I do like plants, a world with both raptor/wolf smite and scryer plant might be too much but if they could give smite buff back to gromp and krugs i would love that

I miss it a bit early game, which was when it felt like it mattered. But overall I like having the larger heal more. It allows me to keep that health up early and late game, which is vital when playings someone like Kha'zix.

i buy chilling smite on almost all my junglers and tbh i kinda like it always being up due to lack of smiting raptors for the buff <.<

I liked Krugs. that was about it. In silver you don't care.

The junglers I favor playing all got a lot worse, to the point that picking them makes me a liability to the team

I agree with OP^ plants should be removed.

Not many jg can clear raptors on first clear. I personally wait until tiamat to do it
