Why The Jungle Changes Were Terrible

There are soooo many easy points to hit on.

The jungle favors champions with large aoe damage in their kits, which makes other junglers almost impossible to play. Champions like lee sin, zac, and gragas, who have been strong as fuck forever, clear jungles insanely fast and stay healthy while doing it. Compare this to champions like tryndamere, yi, jax, and worst of all, fiddlesticks. They can't clear even remotely as fast as other champions. This means they can't apply nearly enough early game pressure and will do worse. I played a lot of nidalee and tried her out in the new jungle. Her early clears were hard to begin with and I struggled learning them in the first place. Now they are just ridiculous.

Even for champions with aoe clears, it's difficult to clear krugs. They take too much time. Now that krugs offer all the experience in the jungle, I have to clear them.

These changes are so one sided. Its like they want to keep op champs strong and meta but don't care about other junglers. Im not saying plants were bad, but i would take smite buffs over plants any day. They couldve kept them in along side plants
