one of the best items in dota when I was playing was this axe that increased your damage against creeps and also allowed you to slay some trees, I wonder if the Machete is gonna have a similar effect
Jungle monsters now attack the nearest target rather than attempting to chase their original attacker to make their behavior more consistent
Wraith camp gold rewards have been reduced and golem and wolf camp gold rewards have been increased to better match their respective difficulty and convenience
The wraiths have reduced attack range and the large wraith has been repositioned within the camp to force mid laners to commit more when farming them for extra gold
I bet Sejuanni will still be trash, if not worse.
Sejuani's an interesting case because like many of the tank junglers her early clear is very painful. At the same time, she scales surprisingly well with items and so she's proven to be powerful if she can navigate through her early game troubles. Will make tweaks where they are needed.
Diana actually performs very well in the new jungle. She has access to very high sustained damage and she benefits heavily from the increased gold flow since she scales well with items.
He [Karthus] also benefits heavily from the addition of a few new jungle items that are aimed towards AP.
It was not my intention to cause a stir, it was out of pure frustration with myself and my declining ability to perform in this game. I have a very defeatist psyche, and internalize and punish myself quite harshly when I make mistakes. With that said, a call to quit was a bit premature on my part, but fuck I should've won those game. I threw them so hard. I've lost any type of confidence I had in playing, and I just don't know what to do.
Been playing since beta, and I can't even compete in the 1400 bracket anymore. That's just fucking pathetic, and I should be better, and I know I should be better. I'm mechanically out of practice, map awareness of a dead cat, and overall game sense of a retarded leopard trying to eat a tree.
I just need to improve, not take things as hard, and learn from mistakes. So yeah, party hard

I like that they are reducing the emphasis of AE damage for jungle farming. That alone will open a lot of new jungler possibilities.
It's interesting since Malzahar's void pets now do tank for him.
When we first initially implemented the new leashing changes, champions with pets that could tank for them like Malzahar and Shaco would literally clear the entire jungle without taking a scratch. Since then, we've had to make jungle monsters deal some amount of bonus damage to pets and we're still trying to fine tune the number to make sure having pet tanks is an advantage but doesn't necessarily mean jungle invincibility.
They sound helpful to her for me. Sejuani scales very well with gold, the problem is that her early game is weak and she can't lane to get that gold. She also has trouble with early game ganks, so if the game is putting less emphasis on that she could do very well. It will also be less punishing to put points into Permafrost early on, so the early ganks she does do will be stronger. Even just little things like having items you want instead of boots to jungle will be good for her.I bet Sejuanni will still be trash, if not worse.
By all accounts, all the games will still have small mobs still (Statikk makes note that Maokai is still top tier for clears since AE is still useful).
I'm curious as to what the changes will mean for blue side early double golems or mid lane Wraith steals. Those are my big things. But, then again, I'm not a jungler :x
Edit:
Oh boy, Kiunch gonna Shaco more
Elise....

I can't launch Lol anymore. I run the patcher and then it says "Adobe AIR Debug Launcher has stopped working." Halp.
She is one of the least popular junglers in the game. Even after the changes go through I don't see her getting picked up that much. I doubt you have much to worry about.Damn. Now I'll have to learn how to deal with Sejuani ganks :|
No it currently costs 300g meaning you can start with 5 Health Potions (numbers subject to change before release).
The Hunter's Machete actually has no raw stats but instead increases your damage dealt to jungle monsters by a % and also adds bonus true damage to your basic attacks against jungle monsters.
The item then branches off into 2 upgrade paths one being Madred's Razor and the other being a new item focused more towards non-autoattack based champions called the Spirit Stone.

I don't know if it's just Shyvana or what, but I was having a huge problem with golems resetting when the AP mid went back to lane. Having no leash sounds like it could be a big difference.
Teamclear red buff, still gank at level 2? Or are they repositioning bushes also?
Hunter's Machete:
Oh boy? Cheaper than I expected, honestly.
It's not really a serious concern. Besides, I know her kit as is and I've already seen her a few times.
If Blue was leashing back like that then either you or the Mid screwed up the leash. It should soft reset twice before a hard reset happens. No leash means that you'll tank it down and will need top/mid (or mid/bot, depending on buff start and side) to stay to help give a smiteless. So, really, you just need to tank a few hits now.
I will still play her sometimes. I just don't expect other people to.Even soda cop giving up hope on Sejuani.
Ha, I kinda figured Hunter's Machete builds into Madred's. Works well for Wriggles favoring champs.
I kinda like the idea that the jungle is dangerous again. Counter jungling will be scary though. Get a warwick with boots, get a quick level 2 with sustain and go f' up the enemy jungler.
The end of leashing?
hotshot implying that dignitas will be staying at CLG mansion
And a hint at new items:
This actually opens up a lot of options for mid lane that aren't casters.So more AP junglers to come then.

To be completely honest with you, I don't think Volibear is a good jungler both on Live and in the new one currently in iteration. He feels currently much better suited for Top Lane.
Unlike other champions where I feel there are small tweaks we can make to ensure they are viable in the new jungle, Volibear feels fairly off and would need some significant changes (both buffs and nerfs) to switch him more into a jungle role.
They made it sound like it was specifically for jungle creeps and not all mobs.I wonder if the new jungle items will ALL scale to % of jungle minions or if itll be something other lanes might want to use!
Well I mean maybe it effects everything, I dunno. Percentage based damage on minions is kind of irrelevant.That seems inconsistent in design if machete only affects jungle creeps but razor will affect ALL mobs. Will those items change also?
Talon will still suck no matter how the meta changes.
lol, why play him when there is wukong
Why play him when there is Zed.
Why play him when there is Ned.
Well ...
Edit: In other news, Trundle is good in the new jungle apparently. And Jax might be OP. Again.
Ned's got no style though.Why play him when there is Ned.
Well ...
