It's not when there's only like, 5 viable junglers.

Every other junglers are underpowered and performs sub-par in the new jungle.

So hypothetically, if we were to nerf all viable junglers right now (LeeSinViJarvanIV etc...) and leave the jungle the way it is, no one would be viable.

If we were to make the jungle easier for squishier junglers, the viable ones would be overpowered.

Where are you coming from?

So you're completely ignoring the fact that while junglers can lane, they do have counters? Just because a jungler receives small buffs so that they can jungle efficiently, does not mean they are going to be OP in lane.

"But but but, even playing whack a mole with buffs and nerfs never worked before, I'm sure they'll work this time because I said they will"

Seriously though, it's kinda disappointing when people start saying "we should nerf the strong and buff the weak", I mean this is literally why Jarvan is a problem now but wasn't much so back in mid season 4.

In Season 5, Jarvan's numbers and kit are exactly the same, and yet hes dominating simply because everything else was nerfed around him.

That's the point.

If you try too hard playing whack a mole by hitting the strong and trying to invite the weak to come up, all you do is change the names and faces of who's at the top. You didn't do anything to solve the problem, we just went from Evelynn/Elise/Lee Sin to Jarvan/Vi/Lee Sin.

how are you going to buff the underpowered junglers without making them mega op in lane. I want Karthus jungle to be a thing again, but after s5 jungle, I just have to accept that it's not a thing anymore. If you buff Karthus, he'll be mega OP in lane.

Wait who's the 5th? I can only think of Lee, J4, Rek and Vi. And Rek'sai might not even be that good after her last nerfs.
