I was wondering if the addition of the new Feral Flare jungle item if it allowed a team to break the meta.
I envision a team:
Top - Tanky Bruiser
Mid - AP Carry
Bottom - Tanky + ranged damage. Basically someone would could feasible survive the 2v1 and still get farm. I was thinking Chogoth, Mundo, Kayle, Shyv, Thresh, maybe a Cait or Trista (escapes).
Jungle - Double Jungle both AD. Yi + Jax. Any AD champ that can still farm in jungle.

I think the pressure of a double AD jungle would be a nightmare for the enemy jungler.
Also, with double Flares going they would easily have the AD to take out champs and objectives without the use of an AD carry. Imagine a Yi + Xin jumping into a lane getting a kill and WRECKING the tower.

Have them both take Red trinkets and be a nightmare for enemy wards.

Thoughts?

It's hard for melee AD carries to siege a tower, because they'll end up taking a lot of unanswerable damage from champions. Imagine having only 2 melee AD carries, and trying to take a tower vs a team with a ziggs mid, and a caitlyn ADC. Nigh impossible

the problem with double flare is you need 50 large monster kills to activate both of them, you would have to be counter jungling pretty hard to accomplish that.

double jungle comps can work, just probably not 2flare.

I have to say I tried Feral Flame on Jungle Vi and it was seriously amazing beyond anything I can describe to you all.

I can only show you how I did with it on
As you can see I was the highest gold intake, I managed to get the FF stacks up to about 60 (give or take), by the end of the match I had close to 6,000g left over, I was doing serious damage to all their champions including Shyvana who had a ton of HP and in the end I was on roughly 4,200HP myself and I never tower dived between the nexus turrets and took down two of their champions without any worries.

Feral Flame is seriously OP and could break the meta on any champion if you know what to do

When it comes to the 50 Big monsters to unlock double Flare, you would try to steal all your enemies 'bigs'. So the enemy jungle either lets you kill him or the lanes have to come help... at which point your lanes takes towers.

@MyBloodisBlack

Please all these item pickups like this Shyvana build :D
Vi is more focused on ganking and doesn't benefit from attack speed aswell. Yeah of course you can build it on her aswell but you probably deny you the needed sustain coming from Spirit Stone items and basically ditching your huge gank potential during every phase of the early jungling time.
Thanks to Aquilegia for this sig!
