Opinions - New Jungle

been grimm·Nov 23, 2014·2 votes·769 views

Why the hell do the chickens hurt so much...

Yes after the first 1-2 clears it feels like the same jungle w/ some different objectives, & i know the goal was to stop early game jungles from dominating but having to go back to fountain after 2 camps is ridiculous. I think Early game jungles should still be compensated for such a nerf.

You pretty much gave sustain jungles (which tend to be op late game, ex. WW, Fiddles, Nunu, etc.) the spotlight.

I understand its a new season & things change but I feel like the change was a bit too much. Jungle Mobs are a lot tougher for squishies, & I feel like this will make the new jungle boring.

What is everyone's opinion on the new change?

Feel free to leave your feedback, Thanks in advance.

if you have to go back after 2 camps you are doing it wrong, i dont have any problem with clearing, my problem is long respawn times and lot less cash in jungle

The long respawn times aren't that big a deal until you have an item or 3. I was toying around with Master Yi in a custom game, started Krugs > red > Raptors. Backed after Raptors, and if I played it right, I was able to clear 3+ times after that without having to back, only having to wait for a second at the most at wolves here and there.

As for my thoughts on the jungle, I'm not entirely sure at the moment. History tells us that starting at a buff is the way to go, but it seems like starting at a non-buff camp is the way to go now.

We just need more time to find what works.

You are totally right, you shouldn't ever start red or blue, also when killing from or golem SMITE IT RIGHT AWAY, smite gives bonuses on use not on kill, many people don't know that yet.

Yea, with Master Yi and the full AS rune page, I could actually auto>smite>auto>auto>auto>Q pretty much before I took damage (using the Q to avoid the out of stun auto from the krug).

sustain is overpowered atm, and the only diversity you get is which champion with a built in sustain do you want to play. dragon is game changing and snowbally, and is far to important.
