No idea if its balanced but it really isnt fun. Its not fun having to play incredibly strong junglers(udyr amumu ww) or else you have to back after two camps.

The new smite mechanics are interesting but mainly meaningless because they didnt up the experience gains(i feel like they downed them it takes all 3 neutral creeps at blue/red to get to lv 2 as opposed to just the big one and a small one before), and they didnt up the gold gains enough to compensate for 100 second respawn timers(in addition to getting rid of extra gold from items).

Every non meta jungler its now completely impossible to jungle with, and a lot of the more traditional jungles have a much harder time(and its not like being better makes it easier, you are literally just facetanking npcs while using whatever abilities you have as soon as they come off cd for the most part)

Basically all the new jungles changes are completely overshadowed by the fact that they are too strong and 2 potions is not enough.

I disagree, i really enjoy the new jungle. Its a bit more challenging, but more rewarding with all the new buffs, when you smite raptors, that buff is incredible, a sweeper for free that goes off if your spotted? Thank you very much! And with first clears, its not terribly hard just start red to make it easier, smite it when your low health for a nice large boost of HP.
