Riot Games: "We don't care about Twisted Treeline"

Cause if we did we would have realized that raising the jungle items 100 gold made the first jungle run on TT impossible, many junglers cannot even clear the first TWO camps!

But we don't care about TT. So suck it players!

You haven't been playing TT that long if you believe it to be impossible to jungle TT considering you jungled differently before this item existed to begin with. Just jungle the junglers with the other start.

Wait...people actually do the jungle in TT at the start? I have always seen a solo and a duo lane with people taking camps to supplement their incomes between waveclears o.o

I always jungle. With the old price of 750 for a complete item I would do this (my fav was Wukong):

  1. Camps spawn you have 2 smites to use. Attack wolves and when you are semi damaged smite the big wolf RIGHT BEFORE IT ATTACKS YOU (since it gets stunned). Chug one pot and proceed to golemns.
  2. Attack golemns; smite the big one right before he swings at you. DO NOT CHUG A POT.
  3. Kill wraiths and back.
  4. When back continue building into your final jungle item; I start building item 3134 . Maybe pick up boots too.
  5. THE SECOND you get back to jungle the altars unlock. You get your teams altar and the camps respawn.
  6. Depending on how the lanes are doing either gank or clear camps.

What does this do? Well, you team gets much more XP vs not having a jungle, you get EXTRA jungle gold from having the upgraded jungle item, and you have some nice damage already since you backed well before the laners. This makes you a huge threat against the dual lane team comp.

Unfortunately due to the 100g increase this entire plan is worthless :(.

Thx RITO, sometimes you just suck balls.

have you considered that the meta can change? so rather than reinforce that there has to be a jungler, why not have a duo lane instead?

A duo lane should easily be able to deny creeps from a solo laner if they work together. That should be enough to make up for the loss in gold for having no jungler. Plus you can build targons or spellthiefs for gold. They might even get a kill.

They already said that in their dev blog months ago.

This also fucked a lot of junlgers not named Lee Sin on the rift, too.

Attached is my win/loss as jungler on TT pre-nerf.

Totally agree with this, I don't know why it doesn't have more votes. I love twisted treeline. This makes me sad and mad.

Isn't TT just for bots?
