Where does popular opinion stand on Lee Sin these days?
Seems like the Blind Monk has fallen out of the spotlight since the Juggernaut came and re-arranged the face of the jungle meta.

I still think his numbers are overpowered as all hell. Have you looked at the damage on his Q? Enormous base damage, higher than Leblanc's Q, % health damage, 180% ratio. Long range, fast moving, low cooldown. Gives him mobility and truesight.
Lee Sin's entire kit is still toxic as hell. It's just that tank junglers have become more powerful as Cinderhulk is still a bit overtuned. It doesn't change the fact that Lee Sin has burst, insane safety, ganking power, clear power, spell vamp (he's the only jungler who still has spell vamp and can benefit from Smite in that fashion, RIP Olaf), cc, range, tank, ward jumping, and counterjungling.
Lee Sin is still the cancer. Thankfully, Cinderhulk at the moment is the cure, but with the nerf coming up I wonder if it will stay that way.
It wasn't that he was OP. It was that every jungler that wasn't listed as a "fighter" was trash. That changed with cinderhulk.
He's still good but requires a great early start to be effective otherwise other junglers that are meta will surpass him. That's basicly what I think about him now.
