Riot are trying so hard to save face with these non buffs. They honestly believe they are right and the players are wrong on the Jungle changes, they made one teeny tiny change to try and appease people but it won't work, and I'm glad. Keep pissing off your players Riot! 200 YEARS!!!

I don't believe their change will fix the problem, but I also don't see how it would "Nerf" jungle... It may be a very small buff, but it's probably riots attempt to not over-buff the jungle

Giving more JG xp is a buff. Krugs are ignored anyways. Stop complaining.

Jungle is not at all nerfed... Please explain why you think it is?

Most of this XP "buff" is put into the krugs, and NOT the big ones. They put most of the xp in the smaller krugs that ppl generally don't take because of the amount of time that shitty camp splits while being untargettable.

TL;DR If you are not gonna take krugs you are not gonna feel the "buff", and the "buff" is not big enough to start taking krugs again imho.

True, most people ignore the krugs because they simply take too long to kill

Full clearing krugs is griefing.

As someone who has played a lot of champions in jungle, I can say that clearing krugs on the first clear is pointless, they simply deal too much damage

It's not the dmg, it's the fact that while they are splitting they are untargettable and you can't kill/hit small ones mid air. No matter how you look at it they add AT LEAST 1 second to the clear every time they split. Even if you have Auto attack or AoE spell ready you have to wait that 1 second for them to land.

You are not supposed to "feel" those buffs if you are not spending much time farming.

The Twitter post makes it very clear that preseason nerfs put jungle in line with other lanes - might I add "finally" - and they are only buffing low elo juglers who suck at pathing (and thus take Krugs).

Not feel those buffs ? They were twittering and saying it out right "JUNGLE XP BUFFS NEXT PATCH". What is a jungler supposed to expect when they label it like that...

It's a bait and switch.

Its not a nerf, because all the big camps (except krug) gives more XP. But to call it a buff is like saying a sugar pill cures flu. This patch does not meaningfully address jungle XP issues.

All the big camps got buffs except blue and red buff got nerfs lol.

Its still a buff to blue and red though ( net +5xp total buff to blue/red, except the first camp is -10XP net). Also, worth noting level 4-6 small buffs to XP multipliers (which is needed, but its still far from the mark). Its just a meme "buff" to jungle.

It doesn't change anything. It does more harm than good. They say its aimed at low elo junglers because they are the only ones who take krugs but realistically you could fix the krug camp so everyone takes it lol.

Doesn't make any sense...

Edit: You have to take into account the many junglers that will grief by taking krugs next time they read the patch notes.

How come you believe it's a nerf?

Not saying your wrong (I don't know anything about jungling, its my worst role), I'd just like to know why you feel like it's getting nerfed again.

Because it is they put all the "bonus exp" into baby krugs, shaved off exp on first buff kill, increased the exp for large monster kills by 10 then lowered the exp for all blue and red buffs that spawn by 5 and increased the gold penalty for taking lane minions to boot.

just read everything line by line and you'll get it, add to that most junglers can't clear krugs on their initial route because they do too much damage and well... nerf.
