Fiora Jungle Season 6 Update?

So i've been jungling for a while now and done alot of wierd stuff to say the least (s rank sona jg bb) and I personally think that almost every champion has jungling potential (except for jayce and azir dont do that it doesn't work) and recently i picked up fiora.

Fiora is a unique and difficult champion to master. I find this increasingly so in the current meta I like to refer to as the "Broken" meta where people play a lot of annoying champions (zed, olaf, almost every champion in the game, annie) and because of this, Fiora is very difficult to play in lane at times. I definently do like top laning with her due to this whole irelia and tank ekko (one nerf didnt fix it we need more) so i've taken to playing her mid and jg. I haven't got a lot of experience with mid fiora but the one match i did i fought annie and we're not going to talk about that. So here i am, with a champion that i like, but no where to take her.

So, as a jg main, i decide that her skill set should at least be somewhat decent for clearing camps and i wasnt far off. Her base damage and attack speed are similar to other ad junglers and her w negates the attacks from every enemy in the camp once. This gives her some survivability without the need for much kiting (but still kite of course). Her ganks consist of a slow similar to khazix's w and some maybe 2/3 procs of her passive. At level 6 she has great survivability in 2 v 2 situations and her passive makes ganking top suprisingly easy compared to most junglers.

Why did i make this thread? because i think fiora jg can be viable with a few tweaks to her kit. My goal is to have a riot employee see this and maybe it can get incorporated into the game. What does fiora need to make her a decent jungler? Only two small changes:

  1. Her slow on her e is too weak for effective ganking. To fix that i was thinking of maybe instead of a flat 30% slow, it would be scaling with level starting at 25 > 30 > 35 > 40 > 45% slow at level 5. I can see why this might have an impact on her laning as it is essentially an extra 15% slow, but if that's a possible change that can be made that would make her ganking on par with other champions.

  2. This is the big one. The only way i can clear is by starting krugs first with smite. But even then she will still be cutting it close if you wish to do a full clear. If i recall, I haven't done a complete clear without taking both scuttles which can be a difficult task. So how do we fix this? Make her passive work on large monsters. This'll help her clears in every camp and will definently make fiora jg possible and even viable right now. The problem with the clears right now is they take too long compared to someone like khazix or nidalee (believe it or not you will die less to camps as fiora than nidalee). I think this is reasonable and won't add any benefits to make her feel overpowering at any other point in the game. The damage from her passive might have to be lessened as it would be easier to hit but I think that adding this in any form will help.

3. Make her ult a map wide aoe soraka heal for 20 seconds healing at a rate of 250% of fiora's ad

TL;DR Make Fiora's passive work on large monsters in camps, and increase her E slow for ganking. Thank you all for reading this post and vote if you think this is a good idea or not.~~ I'll probably do another one for thresh as he is perfectly viable in the jg in this current meta~~

i agree since i have tried fiora jungle once for the fun of it but honestly they'll just end up nerfing her anyways for being too strong there or something also no ekko doesn't need any nerfs i can't even jungle with him anymore ;-;
