Re-purposing the old Spirit Stone Items (and Wriggle's Lantern?) to Modern League.

https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/KgrHmoAt-repurposing-juggernaut-enchantment-for-jungling-juggernauts (Got the idea for this from this post, so credit goes to them)

Note: This assumes and , along with , remain as options that champions would have to pick between based on their class. However, the Spirit Stone Items, as well as Madred's Razors/Wriggle's Lantern, cannot be co-purchased with a Smite Upgrade.

The above post got me thinking: What if champions had more options for jungle items, that suited different purposes than the ones we have on live? I tried to make them not generally better than the options we currently have (although I'm not sure how well I succeeded with this), but tailored towards giving access to a different set of classes (for example, Spirit of the Elder Lizard was aimed at Assassins/Otherwise Bursty champions such as Kha'Zix or Pantheon, while Warrior should remain the better option for bruisers like Vi or Rek'Sai).

Butcher (Unique Passive): Deal 20% increased damage to monsters. 8% of damage dealt to monsters is restored as health, and 4% as Mana.

Madred's Razors: Base Stats: 10% Life Steal vs. Monsters, 15% Attack Speed Build Path: + + 50 Gold (Total Cost: 700 Gold) Nail (Unique Passive): Gain 15% bonus attack speed for 2 seconds upon damaging a monster. Additionally, the target monster takes 25 bonus physical damage on-hit. Maim (Unique Passive): Every forth consequitive basic attack against a monster deals 300 bonus magic damage. (Goals: Middle Tier jungle item to build into Wriggle's Lantern. Aimed at boosting the strength of basic attackers and powerclear junglers).

Spirit of the Ancient Golem (Aimed at Juggarnauts, primarily): Base Stats: 150% Mana Regeneration in the Jungle, 500 Health, 30% Base Attack Damage Build Path: Spirit Stone + + 400 Gold (Total Cost: 2200 Gold) Tenacity (Unique Passive): Gain 35% Increased Tenacity.

With Spirit Stone's Butcher passive and stats to make it a mini Sterak's Gage, Spirit of the Ancient Golem is meant to be a strong mid-game spike for the champions that best use it (especially when combined with Trinity Force))

Spirit of the Elder Lizard (Aimed at Assassins): Base Stats: 150% Mana Regeneration in the Jungle, 40 Attack Damage, 15 Lethality Build Path: Spirit Stone + + 500 Gold (Total Cost: 2200 Gold) Incinerate (Unique Passive): Upon dealing Physical Damage to any target, the target takes 16-50 (based on User's Level) bonus true damage over 3 seconds.

Butcher (Unique Passive): Deal 30% increased damage to monsters. 8% of damage dealt to monsters is restored as health, and 4% as Mana. (Goals: Meant to be for jungle assassins, such as Kha'Zix, Pantheon, or Shadow Kayn. This item grants a base amount of Lethality and Attack Damage that makes them not feel like Duskblade of Draktharr should be an immediate rush, with the Incinerate Passive to assist their burst.)

Spirit of the Spectral Wraith (Aimed at battle mages): Base Stats: 150% Mana Regeneration in the Jungle, 50 Ability Power, 10% Cooldown Reduction Build Path: Spirit Stone + + 600 Gold (Total Cost: 2200 Gold) Unique Passive: Gain 15% Spell Vamp. Tooth (Unique Passive): Dealing damage to monsters drains 25 health over 5 seconds. Butcher (Unique Passive): Deal 30% increased damage to monsters. 8% of damage dealt to monsters is restored as health, and 4% as Mana. (Goals: Meant to be for battle mages in the jungle, such as Karthus, Morgana, or Brand. The Spell Vamp from this item is not particularly impressive, although it is meant to keep them well sustained over long fights. Runic Echoes, by Contrast, should keep its job for more bursty AP champions.)

(Aimed at basic attackers): Base Stats: 10% Life Steal (increased to 20% vs Monsters), 20 Attack Damage, 30% Attack Speed Build Path: Madred's Razors + + 600 Gold (Total Cost: 2200 Gold) Nail (Unique Passive): Gain 15% bonus attack speed for 2 seconds upon damaging a monster.

(150 Second Cooldown) (Goals: Meant to be for basic attack-oriented champions, Wriggle's Lantern provides a bit of Vision Control for champions who may wish to stay in the jungle for more extended periods. With its attack speed and life steal, Wriggle's is meant to provide unmatched jungle sustain and objective control, although it would be inferior for killing tankier targets when compared to its sister item in Bloodrazor.)
