Jungle Camp Changes

I have heard everyone talk about the plants, but I haven't heard many people talk about the Jungle camp changes yet.

In this video about the "blasting plant" .. thingy, .. You will see that the number of units in at least two of the camps have changed.

There are now 5 small Raptors and 1 large one

You also see that there is only 1 monster at Red, the Brambleback and no Cinderlings. He also appears to have a larger model.

This is very interesting to me. Of course this is still all in the testing phase currently, but I kind of like the idea of the Jungle being a bit more challenging. I would expect that the damage of Raptors will be scaled down because taking them at level 1 will be pretty tough if not. But if this is the case, it could potentially change the dynamics of how games start. Maybe the idea is to make the first full clear much more difficult without backing. This would potentially delay early ganks, or cause Junglers to have to decide if they need to continue clearing or conserve health so that they can gank.

It's definitely too soon to tell, but I just wanted to point this out because it seems very overshadowed by the Plants at the moment.

Good eyes, missed the red buff change. Omly realise the raptor change when i watched redmercy's video on it.

I assume Riot is still in talks on the details and will slowly brief players as the weeks go on.

oh god if that exploding this is going to be in the jungle i don't think im going to like that. That is going to be the most rage-inducing thing if a enemy gets away by using that just because they were lucky enough for it to spawn there.

But it might change by that time and I hope it does so Im not going to get to mad about it yet cause I dont know anything till its released
