Views: 1329 Y U NO JUNGLE!?
|
Seriously, ever since the preseason 3 patch, NO ONE is jungling. I see the occasional jungler and that's awesome. But it's usually 1 out of 5 games that I see a jungler on the other team. As an avid jungler, this is obnoxious to gank a 2v1 lane. Not that I can't but it's just annoying.
Finally I asked someone WHY they no longer jungle. Their answer: "Jungling is too hard now" and when I tried to rebuttal, they added, "Blue buff almost killed me..." and I nearly s*** myself. He told me when he jungled he didn't use Smite and that just floored me.
But seriously, NO ONE jungles anymore... it's really frustrating...

Lol I guess people think jungling isn't important but it is. I barely ever see a sole jungler on each team. And seriously, why be a jungler without smite? O.o
That's why I was floored when he said he jungled without Smite.. I mean, with the jungle changes, there are some junglers who are more viable, like single target assassins like
And I don't like anything new that's happening in LoL.
That's exacly why changing meta often is so great! Meta game is made by the community, not Riot. It is not made according to Riot, but the players (even trought Riot can balance group of champs to chage the meta). SO changing metagame often is technically not somekind of balance or addon, it's something that's been there for a while, but that we didn,r know of since you'rejust d
And I don't like anything new that's happening in LoL. I'm extremely disappointed with every single season 3 change.

Meh, the meta's been there for 2 years(if my memory's correct, it is around 2 years old). Games are getting more and more predictables, wich is dragging the game down a lot. If the game become kind of unpredictable and deeper (more strategies, more possibilities), it'll just be better for Riot and the overall gaming community (a lot less close minded extremist people if meta changes often). I mean, who's not exited about using something new and very promising?
Also, I've been seeing a damn lot of pro team running double assassin team comp, to shut down enemy ADCs late game. Might be a kind of ''slowing but surely'' meta change? It's so interesting, I mean, think about all the possibiloities and situation double assassin could come in handy? Would APCs become the new main damage late game since ADCs are always shut down?
This right there, that's what I was talking about in the first paragraph.
P.S. Also, inb4 roaming meta comeback?
Mainly why I rarely get to play a different role nowadays. It's mostly because people want kills all day instead of playing to win :/ But if I had to be honest, yes, jungling has gotten harder now. Especially on champions without that much sustain.
I can still jungle as Shaco, Kha'zix, Nocturne, etc. But honestly it's not much harder IMO...

well that's VERY depressing..
